five Wharfs, each within two or three Miles of any place not more
than six miles from St. Paul's, &c. &c.) as these benefits can only

OLDRIDGE'S BALM . OF COLUMBIA.
" To Messrs. C. and A. OLDRIDGE,
" Wellington-street, Strand.
" Gentlemen,—Having fully experienced the salutary effects of
your far-famed BALM OF COLUMBIA, I hasten now to return
you my most sincere thanks for the great benefit which I have de-
rived from your BALM, and shall now proceed to state the parti-
culars of the case, which, if you think proper, you are perfectly at
liberty to make public.
" About December last my hair fell off my lead very rapidly,
and by the end of January, I had hardly any hair left ;—wheyt a
friend, happening to mention your Balra to me, I resolved to pur-
chase a Bottle, and try it, which I did, and found that it answered
admirably, and that my hair began to grow very fast, and, by the
time I had used two six-shilling bottles, I had a fine head of hair,
which I still continue to have.

" I am, Gentlemen, your's, &c.
" Cambridge." ' " JAMES MACPHERSON.
OLDRIDGE'S BALM causes Whiskers and Eyebrows to grow,
prevents the hair from turning grey, and the first application makes
it curl beautifully, frees it from scurf, and stops the hall- from falling
off. Abundan ee of certificates from gentlemen of the first respeAlibility

HATTON-GARDEN.

On Tuesday evening, at seven o'clock, Sarah Meyers was
again brought before Mr. BENNETT, when Sergeant Camp-
bell, of E division, attended, and stated that, according to
Mr. Bennett's suggestion, he called upon her uncle, Mr.
Sweatman, jeweller, of Lambeth Marsh, but he was not at
home. He saw Mrs. Sweatman, her aunt, who refused to
come forward, and said she would not suffer her husband to
do so. He had also seen her father-in-law, and her mother,
and they also refused to attend.
Mr. BENNETT expressed his indignation, and asked the
officer why he did not insist on their attendance? Ser-
geant Campbell—l have used every effort to cause their at-
tendance, but could not succeed.

Mr. BENNETT asked the prisoner what she would do if
she were liberated? Prisoner (wildly)—l will go back to
the hospital. '
Mr. BENNETT-But will you promise me not to repeat
the act ? Prisoner—l will, your Worship.
Scrjeant Campbell said that the surgeon of the North
London Hospital had offered her to return for a few days

if she thought proper.
Mr. BENNETT—Then take her there ; and when she
is about to leave, bring her to this office, and I will see
that something shall be done for her.
Scrjeant Campbell—l have got a wedding-ring, which
I took from her. Shall I return it to her, your Worship ?
Mr. BENNETT—Most certainly.

The ring, she said, had been purchased by her father-
in-law, and given to her in order to cause a belief that they
were man and wife.

Mr. BENNETT again remonstrated with her, and told her
if she would promise not to attempt her own life again,
although her relations had abandoned her, she should be
protected.
She promised to do so, and during the above period she
seemed -to be partially unconscious of what was passing,
whilst she looked steadfastly at one spot, and her full and
dark piercing eyes protruded from their sockets, and indi-
caied excessive despair.
Serjeant Campbell then took her to the hospital, and on
the road she seemed more cheerful and conversationable,
when she informed him that her mother lived for some time
with her father-in-law, prior to her father's death. He
was distantly related to an eminent barrister, and the
2,000/., had been left to him, and she would eventually be
entitled to it. She also said that her mother bad reproached
her with having attempted to set fire to her house, which
she denied. Campbell said, when he saw her mother on
Tuesday night, she wished for her death, but her father-in-
law said nothing. He described them as being very illite-
rate persons. •

A rumour prevailed there that the names of two of the most

and Major Bishop) have been erased' from the Commission of
the Peace. Upon inquiry, says the paper, we find there is
some truth in the report.
The Government broker has been purchasing Consols, on
account of the West India compensation, to the amount of
165,0001. for the island of St. Kitt's. This caused Consols

MARLBORO UGH-STREET.

Yesterday Nathaniel French was brought before Mr.
CHAMBERS for final examination, charged with having plun-
dered his late employer, Mr. Hodgkinson, silk mercer and
draper, No. 91, New Bond-street, of goods and money to
a large amount.
The prisoner was formerly in an extensive way of busi-
ness as a linen•draper at Cardiff, but having become unfor-
tunate he bad been compelled to take situations in London
houses of business, where considerable confidence was placed
in him owing to his knowledge and industry.
Mr. Hodgkinson stated that the prisoner bad been in
his employ as foreman for above two years. The prisoner
suddenly left his situation, and then it was discovered that
he had for some months past carried on an extensive system
of plunder. His lodgings having been discovered, a search
'warrant was obtained, which was executed by Clements
and Mace, officers of this establishment. On proceeding to
No. 26, Brabant-street, Camden-town, witness and the
officers found the prisoner in bed. A box was searched,
and amongst other things a tin case was found, which the
prisoner said belonged to his daughter, who had gone to
Cardiff. Clements was proceeding to force the lock, when
the prisoner handed him the key, with the remark that he
would find in the case what he wanted. When the case
was opened, a sealed packet was discovered, which, on in-
spection, was found to contain several duplicates of property
which had been taken from prosecutor's stock. The method
used by the prisoner to obtain possession of goods without
suspicion was to take out a parcel as if to show it to a cus-
tomer. He would return without some of the goods, and
would make an entry to the customer as if a sale had
occurred. _

A search having been made among the pawnbrokers,
there were found in their hands three damask tablecloths,
stated to be worth 15 guineas each ; eight pieces of Irish
linen, value about 30/. ; seven dozen of napkins, sixteen
sheets, and other property, amounting to about 1001. Be-
sides these articles, a number of bills, said to have been re-
ceived by the prisoner, and not accounted for, amounting to
upwards of 300/., were found.
Mr. Hodgkinson said he was unable to state the amount
of his loss. which he believed to be more considerable
than what he had at present ascertained.
The prisoner said nothing in his defence, and was fully
committed.

used every exertion in vain to obtain such assistance;
but I am bound to state that notwithstanding this disadvantage,
the police has been of such great public utility as to render its
continuance absolutely essential to the tranquillity and main-
tenance of proper discipline on the estates. The law having
taken away from the master the coercive powers he formerly
possessed, it is necessary to replace it by one more suited to
the new condition of the working classes, which you will see
by the papers which I will cause to be laid before you.
" The only new measures I would at present propose to
you are an Act for the Legislative Union of the Caymanas
with Jamaica ; and an Act for the encouragement of emigra-
tion. The recent changes in the relative positions towards
each other of the two classes of his Majesty's subjects resident
at the Caymanas render it expedient.
" An Act relating to emigration appears to be absolutely
necessary. The frightful mortality and other consequences
attendant on the efforts which have 'been made for the intro-
duction of emigrants, are too well known to you individually.
" I trust that the Legislature will feel the necessity of
coming to some determination on the subject of my right of
access to the correspondence between the Commissioners here
and the Island agent in England.
" MR. SPEAKER AND GENTLEMEN OF THE ASSEMBLY,
" The principle point to which I must direct your attention,
as guardians of the public purse, is a grant for the continuance
of the Permanent Police. lam aware that the vote for this
purpose weighs heavily on the finances of the Island.
" MR. SPEAKER, GENTLEMEN OF THE ASSEMBLY, AND
GENTLEMEN OF THE CCUNCIL,
" I am happy at finding myself enabled to state that the
Island remains in the most undisturbed state. The crops of the
year have been got in in a much more favourable manner than
could have been anticipated, considering the extraordinary
change which has taken place. That it has fallen somewhat
short is undoubtedly true, as I find by reference to the Custom
House, up to the Ist of July, 1835, 68,001 hhds. of sugar
have been shipped, shewing a diminution of 4,444 hhds., but I
have not beard of a single instance of any canes remaining
uncut.
" With regard to the approaching crop on the coffee pro-
perties, it appears likely to be more luxuriant, but the prepa-
rations for next year on sugar estates are not generally as for-
ward as usual."

THAMES POLICE-OFFICE.

Yesterday George Francis Soper, the master of the ship
William Henry Angus, appeared before Mr. BALLANTINE
and Mr. BRODERIP, to show cause why he refused to pay
the sum of 6/. 15s. to David Mills, a seaman, for his ser
vices on board, in a voyage to Grenada.
Mr. Pelham, a respectable solicitor, said he appeared for
the complainant in this case, and the only question for the
Magistrates to decide would be, whether the sailor had de
serted the ship or not. He had been sent ashore at Gre
nada, and locked up for sixty-eight days, under a commit-
ment of a Magistrate for an assault on one of the seamen.
While he was in prison the ship sailed, and he now claimed
wages for the actual time he had been on board.
The sailor having proved that he had signed articles for
the voyage to Grenada and hack at 2/. ss. a month. Mr.
BALLANTINE said the defendant had had the benefit of
the man's services as far as Grenada, and he ought to pay
him for that.
_

Defendant—lt is a complete desertion in every sense o:
the word. _ _

Mr. BALLANTINE—I don't see how you make that out.
The act of desertion, if I understand any thing of words,
means a voluntary leaving and absence from the ship. This
man has been taken ashore and put into gaol for some
offence, and compelled to remain there. That is any thing
but a " complete desertion in every sense of the word."
The case, in my opinion, does not fall within the Act, be-
cause the man did not perform his entire contract, which
contemplated a voyage to Grenada and back ; but if Mills
has been of service to the ship, you surely won't go so far
as to say he shall not be paid for his services.
The defendant said he could not wait until the man was
liberated from prison, and he had witnesses to show—
Mr. BALLANTINE—That the man was taken out of the
ship and sent to prison. I assume all that, but I think it
would be more satisfactory to yourself to pay the man for
the outward-bound voyage. I cannot make an order, but
there are certain things which gentlemen of good sense and
rood feeling will always do without the intervention of
the law.

Mr. BRODEIIIP perfectly agreed with his colleague. As
a matter of law, the case was corani 72011 judice, and the

Bench could make no order, but, as a matter of feeliq
the Magistrates would recommend that the man should
de-
paid the sum he had claimed. If he was not paid, e
fendant must recollect he must transfer the wages to the
Seamens' Hospital.
Mr. Soper gave a cheque for the amount.

SINGULAR CRICKET MATCH.

On Tuesday considerable amusement occurred at Parson's.
green, \Valium, and the vicinity, in consequence of a match
of cricket being played between eleven married and eleven
single women; the match was made for the sum of 101. and
a hot supper. At ten o'clock in the forenoon a tent was
erected on the green, and soon afterwards the wickets were
pitched. A vast assemblage of persons were congregated to
witness the sport, amongst whom were a number of the most
respectable inhabitants ; the married women wore light blue
dresses, their waists and headS being decorated with ribands
of the same colour; the single women were attired in close
white dresses, with pink sashes and cap-bows. The game
commenced abont eleven o'clock, the married taking the first
innings, and obtaining 47 runs; the single than commenced
play, and were not so successful, the whole of them being
bowled out after 29 runs. The two next innings were played,
and the game was won by the single women, but only by
seven runs. After the match was over, countl.y dances, ac-
companied by a band of music, took place on the green, and
in the evening the supper was pruvided at the White Horse,
on the green.

HOP IN TELLIGENCE.

our last ,the crops in this neigh-
bourhood have. much improved in weight, and the quantity
is generally satisfactory. The late showers, however, have
caused those of ninny grounds to turn brown.
MEnEWORTII, WATERINGIATRY, &C.—The hops in this
district do not come down quite so well as was expected,
being rather plentiful but light. , There .are some grounds,
however, which are exceptions to this rule, and the hops
of which weigh heavier than the others. The general re-
port of this, and, indeed, of several other districts, is, that
the hops are not so plentiful as was expected ; but that
their condition is better than, or at least as good, as it has
ever been known.

BARSIING, THE PARLEIGHS, LOOSE, LINTON, &C.—The
report from this district generally coincides.with the above,
but in the Farleighs and Loose the crop is better.
TwEitilasT.—The picking in this and adjoining parishes
is unremittingly pursued ; and the hops, where not at-
tacked by the mould, weigh as well as was expected. The
late winds, however, must cause a reduction of duty, some
grounds have suffered materially.
BOROUGH, SEPT. 14.—We have a good supply of the
new growth at market: The prices having set in mode-
rate, there has been a steady demand for the fine and best
hops ; the low and mouldy are not saleable. Duty ad-
vanced to 250,000/.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL then rose and said, that as there

and at present he could not fix any time when he should pro-
ceed with it.

received a caution on this subject, which had been a lessOn to I
him. At the Westminster election, in 1806, Mr. Sheridan I
was a candidate, and was successful. A petition on the ground
of bribery was presented against him, and a Lieutenant in the
navy, who had taken a warm part against Mr. Sheridan, at-
tended as a witness before the Committee in support of the
petition. This witness proved several distinct and clear
acts of bribery, and stated that Mr. Sheridan had that
very morning offered him 10CL, not to give evidence
against him, and yet that very witness did not know
Mr. Sheridan, who was sitting by the side of his counsel,
by sight ? His Lordship mentioned this for the purpose
of showing how necessary it was to watch with caution
the evidence in a case of this nature. The Learned
Judge then summed up the evidence, and left it to the jury
to say whether it was sufficient, in a case so very penal,
and attended with such very serious consequences, to satisfy
them beyond all doubt that the defendant had been guilty of
the crime charged against him. If they thought the evidence
of Garner was to be believed, they would find for the plain-
tiff; but if they thought his story was such that they could
not implicitly trust to it, they would give their verdict for the
defendant ; and if they entertained any doubt upon the ques-
tion, the defendant was entitled to the benefit of it.
The jury retired, and in five minutes returned with a verdict
for the plaintiff—Damages 5001.
This trial excited the most unusual and lively interest in the
town and county, and the court was crowded to hear it at an
early hour. The finding of the jury was received with a burst
of irrepressible applause, and was announced to the multitude
assembled on the Market-hill outside the court, by whom it
was received with a tumult of approbation.

Yesterday his Majesty enjoyed a carriage airing, accompa-

not well enough to leave the Castle. Her Majesty has been
suffering for some time from the effects of a severe cold, which
she had previous to her arrival here.
This day, we are happy to say, the Queen was sufficiently
well to accompany the King in a 'drive in a close carriage in
the Great Park. _ _

The Address to his Majesty, lying for signature at the Town
Hall, contains already nearly 500 signatures.
The Mayor, Mr. Leigh (of the firm of Ramsbottom and

PRIVATE BILLS

Colonel LEITH HAY gave notice that on Thursday, the
16th of April, he would move a resolution to carry into effect
the report of the Committee of the last Session upon Private
Bills.

An lIoN. ME➢SBER presented petitions from Kilmore and
Ordbrechan, in Argyleshire, in favour of the Established
Church of Scotland.
DISSENTERS' GRIEVANCES.

Mr. WILK S begged leave to withdraw the notice of mo-
tion which he had given for Thursday next, for the considera-
tion of the practical grievances of the Dissenters, with a view
to their redress, and to fix it for Thursday the 28th of' May.
His reason for doing so was this—Sir R. Peel haying brought in
a Bill affecting the grievances of the Dissenters, to marriage ;
and the Noble Member for Lincoln having given a notice
respecting the right of the Dissenters to take degrees at the
Universities, and the question of Church rates being also
taken up by the Hon. Member for Exeter. Under these cir-
cumstances, he thought it desirable that the House should
determine upon these subjects before he should submit the ge-
neral question of the practical grievances of the Dissenters to
their consideration. The Hon. Member then presented a pe-
tition from the Protestant Dissenters of the Baptist deaomina-
tion of Frome, in Somersetshire, praying for relief.
OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH.

Air. POULTER brought in his Bill for the Better Ob.
servance of the Sabbath, which was read a first time, arid or•
dered to be read a second time on Friday next.

ACTS OF PARLIAMENT.

Mr. HUME brought up the report of the Committee upon
printed papers, and the best mode of distributing Acts of Par-
liament. It was his intention to submit to the House, the
propriety of acceding to the resolutions of the Committee.
Mr. ROEBUCK said that each Member was furnished with
a copy of the printed Parliamentary Papers, for which he paid
11. 12s. per annum ; but if he wanted a second he was
charged 31. There must be a job somewhere, and he wished
to know whose job it was.

Mr. HUME-could assure the Hon. Member that there was
no job in this case. The sum charged was that considered ne-
nessary to defray the expense ; but any Member could have
those papers gratis, and the charge was only for carrying them
to the residence of the member.. The Committee had, how-
ever, taken into their consideration whether the sum charged
was too much, and the subject would be brought before the
House.

The Commons were then summoned to attend at the House
of Lords to hear his Majesty's assent given by Commission to
several Bills.

ESTABLISHED CHURCH.

On the SEAKER again taking the Chair,
Sir GEORGE CLERK presented several petitions from
various places in Scotland in favour of the Established Church
in that country.

of Silßobert Peel, which proved that the Clergy had no other
means of discharging their debt, but through a rigorous levy of
tithe from the occupying tenants, which was impossible with-
out military force, while they who were most stubborn in
exacting this repayment from the Clergy were also most fu-
rious in declaiming against the proposal to assist them in
recovering the fund from which only payment could be
made, by, either military or civil power. Sir Robert Peel pro-
perly described this inconsistency as the grossest inconceiva-
ble injustice. Mr. O'Connell's speech did not contain one
particle of reasoning. " Cest apparamment un grand
econome de la verite, ce Mr. O'Connell," said a distinguished
foreigner of the member for all Ireland. But last night
his oration was made up of the regular old trashery reserved
for such occasions. " The people of Ireland—the Rathcor-
mac massacre—the payment of a Protestant Church by a
Popish population," which population, be it understood, will
have to pay their landlords Is. 6d. for every shilling they
have hitherto paid the church—all these topics jointly and
severally furnished forth the harangue of the learned agi-
tator; of whom, if he were asked the question,
what are your own merits towards the "people of Ire-
land ?"—what have you ever done " for the people of
Ireland?" (ay, or for any human being but him
self)—the answer must be, that when a motion was
made in favour of poor laws for Ireland, the only motion
wherein the wretched people of that country had the slightest
concern, he (Mr. O'Connell) discourages the introduction of
such poor laws, insinuating that it was much better for the
poor of Ireland still to support the poor—a task which we
must observe would be somewhat less burdensome, if they n crc
not compelled to support Mr. Daniel O'Connell also. It will
be seen from our Parliamentary report, that Ministers last
night defeated the Opposition on the amendment of Mr.
Spring Rice, by a majority of 213 to 198. This trial of
strength was needlessly, and we dare sav now, in their own
opinion, unfortunately provoked by the Whig-Radical faction.

quainted with the services rendered by the Protestant Clergy
to Ireland, he would not have so expressed himself. It was in
total ignorance of the facts that this petition was drawn out.
Mr. FINN—The Right Hon. Gentleman states that this
clergyman speaks in ignorance of the services of the Esta-
blished Church in Ireland, and he boasts of these services.
Now he ( Mr. Finn) would beg to inform the House of what
he knew these services to consist of. Let us take a
tract of country, commencing with New Ross and continuing to
Waterford, which is a distance of 50 miles, and thence pro-
ceed on to Tramore, which is 13 miles farther. The popu-
lation of that tract is 35,000 souls, and what did the House
think the number of Protestants was? Only 300. There were 15
parishes, and not a single Protestant in one of them, yet they
were told of 'the services of the Protestant Clergy.—(Cries
of " Hear, hear, hear.") The whole country is subjected
to the evils of this system. There are in several parts
clergy without churches—in others, churches without congre-
gations—if than, the Rev. Gentleman was acquainted more
fully with the grievances of this system, he would have ex-
pressed himself more strongly. The petitioner deserved great
credit for his opinions, and it was to gentlemen of such senti-
ments that the Church in Ireland owed any respect that was
now paid to it.
Mr. WARD moved that the petition be printed.
The SPEAKER, we understood, observed that such a
motion was not in accordance with the rules of the House.
The petition was then ordered to lie on the table.
IRISH CHURCH.

Mr. WARD gave notice, that on a motion being made for
the House to go into Committee on the Supplies for the Army
Estimates, he should move as an amendment thereon, that the
motion be postponed until the decision of Lord John Russell's
motion on the state of the Irish Church was known.
SPIRIT LICENCES.

Mr. S. LEFEVRE presented petitions from Hertford.
bridge, and other places in Hampshire, against the increa3e o
the duty upon Spirit Licenses.

MALT TAX.

Mr. HANDLE Y presented a petition from Crowland in
Lincolnshire, complaining of agricultural distress, and
praying for the repeal of the Malt Tax ; also a similar
petition from the Agricultural Association of that county,
comprising some of its most extensive and opulent
proprietors. He would just observe, in answer to an observa-
tion made by the Hon. and Gallant Member for Lincoln (Col.
Sibthorp), that so far from the farmers of Lincoln being
unanimously of opinion that the Malt Tax ought to be kept on,
there was a general desire that the duty should be taken off.
