COALS.

POPE BROTHERS, AND CO.,
In returning their annual tribute of thanks to the Nobility,
Gentry, and the Public generally, for the unlimited and increasing
patronage and support with which they have been favoured from the
first period of their destroying the monopoly in this trade, (by re-
ducing the price of Coals in 18320 present, as usual, their prices at
what they consider the best and cheapest time for families to lay in
their winter's stock.
Best ( Hetton's, Stewart's, or Lambton's) Wall's End, 295. per Ton.
Best Newcastle, 28i., and other seconds from 255. to 275. per Ton.
Clear of Every expense for nett cash. Also Best, and Best Se-
conds, free from dust.
It would be superfluous to repeat the numerous advantages to be
derived from dealing with POPE and Co., (such as the extraordi-
nary facilities which are the natural consequences of their having
five Wharfs, each within two or three miles of any place not snore
than six miles from St. Paul's, &c. &c.) as these benefits can only
be fully appreciated by a trial.

ST. JAMES'S THEATRE.

On Saturday night there were, according to the modern
practice of almost all theatres, three pieces, and as a matter
of invariable usage, the anniversary of St. Stephen the Martyr
must be graced by a new performance, eminently gorgeous
and, above all things, noisy,—crintson and gold, blue and
silver, "feathers and miniver and velvet," a forest of wooden
spears, a multitude of dancing girls, and an elephant or two,
are all excellent in their way : however, noise is most impor-
tant, " sound and fury, signifying— ;" but why should they
be expected to signify anything? • And we must do the new
burletta at the St. James's the justice to say, that neither
in noise -nor otherwise did it signify more than might
be expected of a Christmas piece. It is precisely •
what it ought to be—very- pleasing to the eye, not at all dis-
agreeable:to Any other sense, in nowise offensive to good taste,
most judiciously brief, founded on a talc as familiar to school-
boys as the birch used to' be, having -sonic' pleasant music, •
pretty tricks, and machinery, with admirable dancing, and two
characters, at all events, •to make those laugh who have the
icare of little people at theatres in vacation. The opening
scene of I?asselas,-which is the title of the burletta, presents
the King of Abyssinia on his throne during one of his annual
visits to the Happy Valley, with all its inhabitants in their hob -
day suits collected at his court. The effect of this must be
quite to the taste of the sight-seeker. The mode by.whieh the
Prince and his sister escape from the felicity of their confine-
ment is, instead of the old tunnel plan, by which we might have
been introduced to that under the Thames, a more recent in-
vention of a great projector, a certain Mr. Jim. crack. Mrs.
Selby -was very good in Miss M'Drawley, the female apostle of
" the greatest happiness principle," Mr. Mitchell eNcellent as
Jimcrack, 'and the others very fair. The concluding scene was
as usual splendid, and the burletta given out for repetition
amidst the warmest applause.

DEATH OF LADY H. WILLIAMS WYNN.—
We regret to state that this estimable lady breathed her
last on Tuesday, the 22d inst., at Wynnstay, the mansion
of her husband, Sir Watkins Williams Wynn. Lady Hen-
rietta Antonia Williams Wynn was the eldest daughter of
the Earl of Powis, sister to the Duchess of Northumber-
land and Viscount Clive. She was a most amiable, bene-
volent, good Christian, and her death will be deeply la-
mented by the needy, ". whom she clothed and fed," as well
as by numerous families of the highest distinction, with
whom she was connected.

WARD OF ST. MARY.

* Mr. Edward Turner, Fratton, yeoman
• Mr. Win. Stigant, Green-lane, Dock.yard clurk 47
• Vlr. Wm. Thompson, Park-lane, surgeon
T. 'lose marked thus are the only four Tories elected.

It wi' a be observed by the result that the question of who
should be Councillors was entirely a political one. The
working of the Bill depends greatly on the temper with which
the va► ions Councils exercise their office ; and though we
have no ',objection to a few Tories (for so long as they can be
kept wi thin bounds by a preponderance of Reformers, they
are as ri seasoning„ like salt to our porridge), yet, if they had
had fuU sway in all quarters, the Bill weuld have been ren-
dered n ugatory ; a Tory Council would have been followed
by Tor: f Magistrates ; and we know well enough in the
county what they work for : on the contrary, and we rejoice
to anno, Inca it, our Council is eminently a Liberal one. The
two W urds of Portsea Town, and the districts of St. Paul
and All; Saints,_have returned none but Reformers ; in Ports-
mouth liVard all are Reformers but one ; while, on the con-
trary, th e only three Councillors for St. Mary's Ward are
Tories. We are thus secured in having a magistracy named
which w ili possess the confidence of the inhabitants of these
two pops ►lows parishes.—Hampshire Telegraph.

WARWICK.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
We cannot tell the exact result of the poll in this borough
till to-morrow (Monday); but in the Lower Parish, where
Lord Warwick's Castle and chief properties are situated, the
Reformers carried the whole list of their candidates ! In the
other ward, St. Mary', we believe we have carried 6 out of
12, which gives the Liberals, in the gross, 12 out of 1 s
Conncillors. I believe this will be found to be accurate.
The Teries used every possible exertion.

THE HOhY BIBLE,
WITH NOTES,
By the Rev. H. CAUNTER, B.D.
Illustrated with One Hundred and Forty-four Engravings,
From Drawings by
R. WEST ALL, Esq., R. A. , and J. MARTIN, Esq.
TO THE PUBLIC.

NX apology can be necessary for presenting to the Public a New
Edition of the Holy Bible ; it will therefore be sufficient' to mention
the principal object in view in the present publication.
There being no good editions of the Bible with notes, except
those oltieh are sold at so high a price as to exclude the middling
and poorer classes from having access to them, the first aim is to
supply what has long been felt to be It serious desideratum.
The notes by the Rev. Hobart Caunter, 8.D., will be exclusively
explanatory ; some idea may be formed f their extent, when it is
stated that they will contain as much matter as three ordinary
sized octavo volumes, they will be written in a plain and concise
wanner, so as to be intelligible to all classes of readers.
The Illustrations (in number one hundred and forty four) will
be from Drawings by P,..Westall, R.A.,'Esq. and J. Martin, Esq.
the celebrated painter of Belshazzar's Feast.
The Work will be published in Weekly Numbers, containing
tivo Engravings, and twelve pages of Letter=press, at the low price
of three pence, each Number, and will be completed in seventy-two,
forming one splendid octavo volume.

OLYMPIC.

At this house, on Saturday evening, a new mythological
burletta was the attraction for the holyday play-goers. It is
entitled the Olympic Pic--Nic, and, like other pic-nics, con-
sists of a farrago of ingredients. The best thing in it is the
scenery, by Mr. Hilliard, and the dresses, by Misses Glover
and Ireland, beyond which there is little to praise. The act-
ing of Madame; herself,, and of Bland, was however good ;
and they did all that could be done to render the pic-nic of
'the gods on the stage palateable to the gods in the gallery,
and the mortals in the pit and boxes. The plot, as may be
supposed, is an interpolation in mythology, somewhat ludi-
crous, but not sufficiently so to secure the ..long loud laugh
sincere," which generally bespeaks the unqualified satisfaction
of Christmas auditors.. There is throughout the dialogue a
resuscitation of dead puns, and an attempt at wit, which is
tiresome, and makes that worse which is not of itself good for
much. The Helenisms of St. Giles's and Billingsgate arc
detestable in the mouths of pretty women, and the substitu-
tion of street slang for genuine repartee is in bad taste, and
cannot too soon be expunged from dramatic dialogue. There
arc some redeeming qualities in the burletta, and amongst
them the taper legs-and gossamer wings with which the stage
is crowded, are the best.

WHALE SHIPS.

(From the Second Edition of the Hull Rockingham, Satur-
day, four o'clock.)
" We are happy to state that the Harmony, from Davis'
Straits, has arrived this morning.
" Loss OF THE DORDON."-Henry Groat, first mate,
and Robert Meggison, second mate, of the ship Dordon, who
arrived here to-day in the Harmony, from Davis' Straits,
depose that the ship Dordon was totally wrecked on
the 20th of October, in about 67 N. I. and 44 miles
from the West Land the crew saved and divided amongst
the following ships : Captain Willis and half the crew, with
half the provisions, were taken on board the Abram, which
ship had then 94 men on board; the rest was divided,
taking their proportion of provisions between the Gren-
ville Bay, Lady Jane, and Norfolk, except them-
selves, who came in the Harmony. The Harmony
got clear of the ice on the 28th of Nov. in about 62
50 N. L., and about 60 W. L. ; had not seen any of the other
ships since the 13th of Nov., on which day the Abram was
in sight; at 12 miles N.W. of them the Grenville Bay, Nor-
olk, and Lady were in sight, on the 10th, lying close together,
covered in with canvass, about 18 miles N. W. ; have no sub-
sequent knowledge of the ships. When they got clear them-
selves, believed they might be the last ship.—Hull Rockingham.

BATH-SATURDAY.

The Election of Town Councillors commenced this day
with the ringing of the bells of the different churches, and
firing of cannon at various parts of the city. The contest was
a very spirited one, and of the Municipality which is divided
into seven wards, and consisting of 2,250 votes, upwards of
2,000 polled. Thee-election terminated to the utter discomfi-
ture and destruction of the Tories, although backed up 14y the
whole of the. old Corporation; the Orange parsons, and the
Marquis of Bath Tory Magistrates.
The Radical Reformers have elected 35 out of 421 This
election has convinced the Tories that they w ill never be able
to elect Colonel Daubeney, or any of their clique. It
will give a new tone to Bath, which has been ruled with an
iron rod by the Tories for centuries.
They were assisted to-day by a whole regiment of Army
and Navy Half-pay Officers, which this city is celebrated for
being infested with, and who used every intimidation over the
industrious tradesmen.

form interest. We have five wards, and six Councillors in
each ward. In four of the wards the Reformers return the
whole number of Councillors by decided majorities, and in the
fifth they will return either two or three. The Tories, there-
fore, will not return above three or four at the most. The re-

SURREY.

The grand attraction of most of the theatres at this time
is the-pantomime, we shall be excused therefore for passing
over the performance which preceded it here on Saturday with
only a'word. It was the opera of the Lord of the Isks, and
as-far as we could see, was well got up. The opera was suc-
ceeded by the principal performance of the evening, which
takes its title from the familiar nursery rythmes of Old Daddy
Long Legs and Mary, Mary, quite Contrary. As is usual
on such occasions, the nursery rhyme does littlo more for the
story of the piece than furnish its title and a personification of
" Old Daddy" himself, who strides about on enormously
high stilts. . After Old Daddy is Harlequin, Columbine,
Clown, and Pantaloon, and after the usual succession of .acig
ventures and hair-bredth 'scapes, Harlequin and Columbine
are at length made happy. The tricks in this pantomime
arc on the whole ingenious and well executed. The machi-
nist had a hit cr two at the New Poor Law Bill. One
was the sudden change of a barrel of table-beer into
a :tub of water gruel, and of a chest of bohea into a
pump. lie was not so successful in his hit at the cometr
The most attractive part of the evening's performance, and
unquestionably the best executed, was a dioramic annual, as
it was called, giving views of Edinburgh, Rosslyn Castle,
Kelvin Grove, Dumberton Castle, and Stirling Castle, which
are exccnted in a splendid manner, and do great credit to the
artist, Mr. Phillips. The chief parts in the pantomime were
very effectively performed. Of Mr. llonnor and Mr.
Ashbury it is unnecessary to speak, as Harlequin and Panta-
loon : their merits are already too well known to require it.
Miss Stanley is an admirable Columbine, and Mr. Herring
a most excellent Clown. The house was crowded in every
part.

HULL-SATURDAY.

Sir—Knowing that you take a lively interest in the Re-
formers of our good town, I have much pleastre. to inform
you, that our Municipal Election has proved to the Tories a
complete defeat, after great boasting on their part. The
Mayor will not declare the election until two o'clock on Mon..
day, consequently the exact nnmbers, as declared by him, will
not be known until that time. We had a meeting last night
of the Chairmen and Ward Committees, and ,we can posi-
tively state what follows to be in substance correct, and we
hope more in numbers than I state. The following is the ma-
jority in each Ward :
Wards. Voters.
1. Lowgate
2. Market-place
3. South Myton ... 153
4. North ditto
5. East Sculcoates, giving them all the
doubtful and divided
6. Holderness Division . . 73 •
7. West Sculcoates, 149 Radicals, 132 Tdries, and
31 divided ; and we hope here a majority.
I hope this will convince our opponents that they arc now
completely done up.

I have much pleasure to inform you that we have got ano-
ther of our fishing-ships, the Harmony, and brings an account
of the loss of the Dordon, crew and provisions saved, and
hopes that more of the vessels will get out.

STOCKPORT.

'ln our borough we had to return forty-two Councilors, and
fourteen Aldermen. The poll has been most glorious. Ido
not believe that above four, at the utmost, of the Tories have
been chosen; and, indeed, it is not certain that there is one.
The beer barrels and brandy bottles were in vain applied by
the Tories. 'We did not " treat ;" and our men freely and
purely voted. The soldiers are under arms, and the town
might be supposed to be besieged, but all is quiet and peace-
able. Our electors are sober, though overjoyed. I will send
you the polls on Monday. In Congleton our friends write
that all is safe for the Reform cause.

Of the doubtful figures, we may remark, that some of the
more knowing of the Tory party have been heard to express
their doubts since the close of the poi!, of their having secured
more than two of their party in the Bristol Ward, and that
Messrs. Pinney and Bright, reputed Whigs, are classed among
the Tories in the Ward of St. Augustine. The number of
Liberals, as given in the Ward of Redcliff, we believe to lie
correct, though from the poll running close, it is impossible to
particularize them by name. On the whole, we believe, when
the official declaration is made, it will be kund that the Libe-
ral party will stand in a position fully equal to that assigned to
it in the above table.

We should have been happy if we could have furnished our
readers with a more definite statement ; the arrangements,
however, resolved on by the Mayor, utterly preclude the pot-
sibility of a more accurate one appearing, if these arrange-
ments be adhered to, until Monday morning.

The Magistrates were occupied nearly the whole of the

and disorderly." The usual plea of" Christmas-time, your
Worship—never did so before," was, in most instances, al-
lowed as an excuse, and the parties were discharged on pro-
mising to "go and sin no more."
Among the motley group was a man whose shabby-gen-
teel appearance bespoke him to be, what he afterwards an-
nounced himself,.namely, one whose business it is " to teach
the young idea how to shoot," as usher in a respectable se-
minary, or, to use plain language, teacher in a school.
To the charge of being found in Long-acre, incapable of
taking care of himself; the assistant pedagogue said he must
admit he was non tempos mentis, but he hoped that some
little relaxation might be allowed to one whose labours
only permitted him to enjoy the society of a friend once
a quarter. _ _ _

The worthy Magistrate said be hOped none of his pupils
had seen him in the state he had been on the previous night.
" No, thank God," said he, " and I hope they will not
see me, or I them, until the close of the vacation. God
knows I have seen enough of them during the last three
months to tire the patience of Job."
" Will you promise not to offend again ?" said the Magis-
trate. " You appear to be respectable, and ought to know
batter."

The tutor upon hearing this, began the old excuse, nenzo
ntortaliu►n (minibus, &c., but his address was cut short by the
Magistrate telling him that he was discharged ; and, after
bowing in a style that would have done credit to a dancing-
master, he left the Office.

HATTON GARDEN.

A man, named Biencoe, was charged with having stolen
a large quantity of crape, shawls, lace, handkerchiefs, and
other valuables, from the stock of Mr. Stone, silk mercer
and draper, of 126, St. John-street, Smithfield.
The prisoner's defence was conducted by Mr. FloWm
It appeared from the evidence that a commission of
Bankruptcy had been issued against Mr. Stone, whose as-
signees had disposed of his stock in trade to Messrs.
Hall and' Freeman,' Manchester House, St. John-street.
The latter gentlemen are selling off the property, and the
prisoner, with several other persons, was entrusted with the
care of it. The articles alluded to were stolen from the
premises on Thursday night, and Sergeant Ashton, No. 11
G, a very active officer, having been employed to make in-
quiries respecting it, he apprehended the accused, who, it
appeared, had fastened all the doors, and was .the last out
of bed on the previous evening, and was the first down
stairs the next morning. There were many other circum-
stances of strong suspicion against him. The prisoner was
remanded.

BOSTON-SUNDAY.

The election of the New Town Council for this Bo-
rough terminated yesterday, in the total discomfiture of the
ota Tory Corporation, by an overwhelming majority. Not
one of them has been returned, notwithstanding, ever since the
passing of the Bill for the Reform of Municipal Corporations,
aware of their unpopularity, they have been unremitting in
their exertions to secure their re-election.

Thus does Boston furnish an example, which we hope will
be extensively followed, of what Reformers, under the most
discouraging circumstances, may accomplish by unity, activity;
and perseverance.

(FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.)
At Boston, Lincolnshire, where the revenues and power of
the Corporation were large, and where Tory exclusion and
domination were complete, the result of the election on Satur-
day is most triumphant for the cause of Reform, as eighteen
Liberal Burgesses have bee❑ chosen to form the Council, and
not one of the old Corporators, or Conservative party, have
been elected.
London, England, 1835-12-28

LIVERPOOL.

This has been unquestionably the busiest day that ever oc-
curred in the annals of Liverpool. The town has been in
a state of the most feverish excitement from morning until
night.

It is well-known that this day (the 26th of December) is
the day named in the Municipal Reform Act for the elec-
tion of the new town-councillors. Ever since the division
of the town into wards took place, agreeably to the instructions
of the Act, the Reformers and Tories have been busy pre-
paring for the great struggle consequent upon the change
of system. It is well-known that the corporate estate
of Liverpool is one of the heaviest in the kingdom,
and the amount of its patronage is correspondingly
large. The old corporation of Liverpool during the pre-
sent generation, has been little else than a family
conclave ; every member of it, with the exception of.
some half-dozen individuals, being related directly or re-
motely to each other. In principle it was essentially Tory,
and a political as well as religious feeling stained every act of
its career. It consisted—we may now speak of it in the past
tense—of High Church and King men, who naturally bestowed
their patronage and favours upon persons entertaining the
same bigoted prejudices as the majority of the members.
Everything about its constitution was vicious, and smelled
rankly of the by-gone days of corruption. The members
amounted in number to forty-one, who elected themselves, and
of course elected none but those who agreed with them in po-
litical and religious feeling. The intolerant character of the
late Corporation cannot be more powerfully developed than by
stating one fact—that. though Liverpool contains about fifty
thousand Dissenters, and nearly that number of Roman , Ca-
tholics, many of whom are equal in point of property, and im-
measurably superior in point of talent, to any member of the
defunct Corporation, not one Dissenter or Roman Catholic,

BRIGHTON.-SUNDAY.

This morning their Majesties and the Court attended
Divine Service within the Palace. Prayers were read by
the Rev. J. R. Wood, and the Dean of Hereford preached
from the 25th chapter of St. Matthew, 19th verse. " After
a long time the Lord of those servants cometh and reckon-
eth with them."

The Palace Chapel was also opened for Divine Wor-
ship. The officiating ministers were the Rev. Dr. Everard
and the Rev. J. S. M. Anderson.

His Majesty, accompanied by Prince Ernest, took his
favourite carriage drive this afternoon to Shoreha►n. The
Queen has not left the Palace for several days ; her Ma-
jesty, although quite recovered from her recent indisposition,
is fearful of a relapse if she should take out of door exer-
cise in the present state of the weather.
The Ministerial papers speak of the kindness manifested
by his Majesty towards his Ministers at a late dinner
party at the Palace, which they considered a sufficient an-
swer to Tory misrepresentation. Now, my Lord Glenelg
has been there two days, and he still remains without any
invitation to dine at the Palace.

The King, accompanied by Lady Falkland, drove to
Shoreham yesterday afternoon.

Lord Gienelg arrived at the York Hotel yesterday af-
ternoon, and shortly afterwards was honoured with an
audience by the King. His Majesty also gave audience to
Captain Duff, Sir Charles Rowley and Mr. Thomas
Attree.

The Royal dinner party,- by invitation to-morrow even-
ing, will be a military one, the following officers having
received the Royal commands to dine at the Palace :
Colonel Chatterton (the Commanding Officer of the 4th
Royal Irish Dragoon Guards), Colonel Walton (Com-
manding officer of the Coldstream Guards), Lieutenant-
General Sir T. Widdrington, Lieutenant-Colonel Shaw,
Colonel Gooch, Hon. General Phipps, Colonel Adye,
Colonel Grey, and Major-General Sir A. Clifton.

ADEL PHI.

The leading novelty at this favourite little theatre on Sa-
turday night was a nondescript sort of performance, entitled
ill the bills of the night " a new, gorgeous, and splendid cha-
racteristic Christmas spectaele, called The Elfin Queen,"
followed by TA•Masque of ilarlequin. The characters in
the first portion of the spectacle are all fairies, and the plot,-if
plot it may be called, depends upon the loves, of Nyniphaliu
(the Elfin Queen) and Prince 'Gossamer. As to the harle-
quinade, the tricks, which usually constitute the most im-
portant part, were few in number, stale, and poor•in device and

The performances here. on Saturday, began with the comedy
in five acts of John Bull, or an Englishman's Fireside, and
then succeeded the new and splendid comic pantomime. The
well known song of " The King of the Cannibal Islands " is
the foundation of the pantomime, which has been produced
with the most splbndidNcenery, dresses, and decorations, and
it is called Ilohee Pokee Wankee Funs, or Harlequin and the
King of the Cannibal Islands. The Cannibal King, after-
wards one of the Clowns VIC. Mande 's) has for wife Qacen
Tullinee Longeemori, who is beloved by three rebel chiefs ;
the Cannibal King, in jealousy, cuts off her head, and sustains
a terrific conflict with the army of the rebel chiefs, whom he
also makes undergo decapitation, and the " change " then
takes place, when there ensues a series 'of tricks and transfor-
mations, which require to be seen tU he appreciated. • There
were some succcssiul hits, such as the " Silver Cradle," with
tne motto " Wean-abler ; " the " Orange Merchant," Mr. Q.
Cumber," " Chalk Farm," (six o'clock), &c. Mr. Nelson
Lee was Harlequin ; Mddlc. Lconi, Columbine ; Mr. Blan-
chard, Pantaloon ; M.. Manders, one of the Clowns, and Mr.
Sylvester the other, who highly deserved the surname of the
" Flying Air Diver."

BURY ST. EDMUND'S.

In this borough the liberals in the Corporation Elections
to-day (Saturday) have exceeded their most sanguine expec-
tations—the old roost is cleared, excepting two of the old cor-
porators. The Reformers have nobly, honestly, and trium-
phantly done their duty; out of eighteen Councillors they
have returned sixteen ; and of the two returned by the Tories
one is Arbell Ray Oakes, Esq., the King of the late Corpo-
ration, who in all probability will not accept the office ; and
the other Mr. R. Maulkin, who was partly supported by the
Reformers, and is far from a Tory. The only other member
of the Corporation who has been returned is Mr. George
Creed, a gentleman of liberal principles, which he singly
maintained upon that corrupt body. The other new Council-
lors consist of gentlemen of various religious denominations—
Churchmen, Dissenters, and Quakers; and, to the honour lof
their constituents, and in particular of four clergymen of the
Established Church, who gave them their full support, the
Dissenters attained in one ward the first place on the poll, and
in the other two wards, very eminent situations. The ma.
chinery of the Bill, upon the whole, worked extremely well,
though, of course, like all new works, it may be materially
simplified: The result of the polls, at each ward, was as
