BLISSETT V. FLOWER.

Mr. KINDESLEY obtained an injunction ex-parte, re-
straining the defendant from proceeding to pirate and to
publish Lady Blissett's work, called A Journal of Con-
versation with Lord Byron.

The LORD CHANCELLOR had some difficulty in deci-
ding whether the Journal was a work to which the pro-
tection of the Court ought to be extended, but ultimately
directed the injunction to go.

IN RE BAGSTER, A LUNATIC.

Sir E. SUODEN took an order of the Court by consent,
confirming the Master's report appointing Mrs. Bagater
to be the committee of the person, and Mr. Henry
Woodley to be the committee of the estate ; and
referring it back to the Master to fix a
maintenance to be allowed to the mother for her daughter,
to inquire what proceedings should be taken to annul the
marriage, and to tax the mother's expenses in the course
of this proceeding ; with liberty to the Master to make
separate reports as to any of the matter, or to state any spe-
cial circumstances he might think proper. A part of the
prayer was for a reference to the Master, to inquire whe-
ther it would be expedient to institute any criminal pro-
ceedings against Mr. Newton and other parties; but the
learned Counsel stated that they did not press for that part
of the prayer at present.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, T WEL VE O'CLOCK.

We have but one arrival this morning of ship letters
from Bermuda, with an old Dutch mail, which causes us
to he exceedingly dull in the city for a supply of political
news. In the mean time there is a report that Don Mi-
guel's squadron has escaped that of his brother's, and has
proceeded to retake Terceira, having troops on board fur
that purpose.
We hear that the King's Speech was finished last night
for the prorogation of Parliament.
The Dutch steamer is hourly expected, but it is not
supposed it will bring any news of consequence, as the
final result of the affairs will come from Brussels.

wOODCROFT V. BROOKS.

Sir E. SUGDEN applied for an injunction ez-pane on
behalf of the plaintiffs in this case, to issue against
the defendants, restraining them from further carrying
into operation, employing, using, exercising, and vending,
snaking, constructing, selling, or keeping, the processes and
apparatus mentioned in the pleadings fin- the printing and
preparing for manufacture yarns of linen, cotton, silk,
woollen, or any other fibrous substances, in violation of a
patent obtained by the plaintiff on the 31st of March, 1827.
The Loßn CHANCELLOR said it did not appear to him
that there was anything to prevent him in this case issuing
the injunction ; still, as it was tile last day of the sitting
he would take the bill and affidavit home with him
before decidedly directing the injunction to issue.
He wished some means could have been devised
before this for the purpose in a measure of obviating the
evil which frequently happened in cases where ex parte
injunctions were granted just at the rising of the Court
for the long vacation ; but he regretted that there had no-
thing yet occurred to him that could practically be put
into operation in this respect.

RUSSELL V. COWLEY.

This was a case for a special injunction, upon notice,
appointed to have come on to-d3y, but in consequence of
the lateness at which the affidavits had been filed, it had to
stand over till next term.

the Account.

This is settling-day in the Foreign Market ; they are
busy arranging their accounts.

HALF-PAST ONE.

We are informed from a respectable source that Van de
Weyer is daily expected in England, furnished with full
powers to arrange finally, on the part of the King of Bel-
gium, a peace with Holland ; and we understand that the
only difference now remaining to settle is, that the Dutch
refuse to pay a duty on their ships entering Antwerp,
which is expected to be amicably arranged.
We do not hear, up to the present hour, of any ex-
press having arrived in the City from Paris, by which
we may infer that no political occurrence has taken place
in the above capital.
Console, which were in the early part of the morning
at 83k, have since improved to 84i for the Account, and

NEW STRAND THEATRE4

The Loves of the Angels is nightly increasing in at-
traction. Mrs. WATLETT has added another leaf to her
laurels, she sings, acts, and looks delightfully as Zaraph.
This is the only drama in our remembrance in which the
mortal characters are antedeluvians. The music is of a
very high order, not made up of a selection of the mere
prettinesses of popular composers, but the very gems of
ROSSINI, AUGER, and PuclrrA. A duet (Cara pupille)
between Mrs. Cm/trail.); and Mrs. WAYLETT is the most
lelicious morceau we ever heard upon the English stage.
\lrs. Hownv, who enacts the lady-love of the Spirit of
Song, is a beautiful creature, remarkably like what we
remember Madame VESTRIS to have been, and with every
promise of becoming as pre-eminent in her profession as
th It fascinating woman now is. The last scene, in which
her mortal lover Korah (Mr. W. H. Rena) bids her
art well, is a highly-wrought piece of pathos, in which
Mrs. HONEY and Mr. Rena fairly divide the applause and
rears of their auditors; there is an intensity of mental
agony in the subdued tone of the whole scene that speaks
a pure ttste in the performers. The piece is written by
Mr. Revs, the author of The Judgment of Paris.

MORE RIOTS AT BRISTOL.

(From a Correspondent.)

At two o'clock yesterday afternoon the Political Union
were to hold their Reform dinner on Brandon Hill, near
Bristol. Tables were covered for many hundreds, and all
was likely to proceed peaceably and comfortably, when,
just as the company were about to take their seats, an im—
mense gang of party ruffians commenced an indiscrimi•
nate attack, not only on the parties present, tot destroyed
every thing that came in their way. Of course a dreadful
scene of confusion followed, the mob carried away knives
and forks and everything that was portable. Nothing could
exceed the confusion that prevailed. Surely the legal
authorities of l3ristol must he very remiss in their duties
to suffer the respectable inhabitants to be at the mercy of
a wretched rabble. We should have thought that they
had had a tolerable lesson during the Wetherell affair.
Our informant left Bristol at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

CASE OF DISTRESS.

Of all the cases of distress with which we are ac-
quainted, one of the most distressing is that of Mr. Thomas
Morgan and his wife. We would strongly recom-
mend them to the benevolent, in the hope they will extend
their charitable assistance, be it ever so small, to establish
them in some little way of business, that would produce
them a subsistence for their few remaining years, and
rescue them from ending their days in a workhouse. This
respectable couple, who are now about seventy years of
age, were upwards of twenty-six years as office and
house-keepers at The Sun paper, during the time of the
following proprietors, Mr. Heriot, Mr. Clarke, and Mr.
Taylor. Seven years ago, in consequence of Thomas
Morgan being severely afflicted with rheumatic pains in
his limbs, which rendered him so lame that he was un-
able to attend to the duties of the office, and Mrs. Mor-
gan being old and infirm, they resigned their situation, and
ever since had to live on the produce of their former sav-
ings. Meeting with some losses which they did not
foresee, they are now thrown on the mercy of the world.
Hoping that this may meet the eye of some benevolent
individuals, we trust they will render their charitable as-
sistance. The truth of this statement may be learned at
this office, or at any of the other daily Papers.

UNION-HALL.

Yesterday Edward Lee and Ann Spooner were
brought up, charged with assaulting Mrs. o.ling,the
wife of a tradesman, under the following singular
circumstances :

It appeared that Ann Spooner lost a copper tea-
kettle, together with some other culinary utensils,
from her kitchen, and hearing in the neighbourhood
of the skill of two " cunning women," who had
performed prodigies in the art of telling fortunes, as
well as a knack of recovering stolen property with
the aid of the " Thble and key," she was induced to
consult them on the subject of her loss. Mrs.
Scooner having first " erosF•e,l her hands with silver,"
a Bible and key were produced, end she was then
desired to mention the names of all her immediate
neighbours, which having done, she was then tell,
that when the key was turned three times in the
Bible, it would be found to rest on the letters form-
ing the initials of the name of the thief. Unfor-
tunately for Mrs. Osling, the key, having bun turned
in the usual way, was found covering, amongst other
letters, a capital 0, and she was at once pronounced
the thief. The accusation soon got wind over the
whole neighbourhood, and the defendants, accom-
panied by others, went to Mrs. °sling, accused her
of stealing a kettle, and vowed vengeance if she did
not forthwith confess the robbery, and restore the
property. The complainant, who was thunder-
struck at so serious a charge being made aping her,
declared her innocence of the crime; but they would
not listen to her, and the defendants actually com-
menced beating her, and would probably have se-
riously injured her, had not some persons interfered,
and rescued her from further violence.

Mr. CHAMBERS said, that it was scarcely possible
to imagine, that at the present period there were
to be found persons who were so credulous as to be-
lieve the superstitious tra-h of old and ignorant men
and women, who professed to tell fortunes.
It was stated, that one of the old " fortune-
tellers" was waiting outside to hear the re,uit of
the investigation ; upon hearing it, Air. CHAMBERS
had her brought before him, and something bulky
being observed under her cloak, it was discovered to
be the Bible used by her on the occasion above
described. When asked what she brought the
Bible there for ? she rep:ied, that she was fond of
reading the sacred volume, and always liked to carry
. .

it about with her. She denied that she was in the
habit of using it for any other purpose.
Mr. CHAMBERS fined the defendants for assaulting
the complainant, and told the old " fortune-teller,"
that if she did not earn her bread by honest means,
instead of imposing on the credulity of the ignorant,
she should be sent to the treadmill.

CHESTER.

Samuel Poole, aged 42, was indicted for baying
married Ann Cooper, at Whitchurch, his wife, Mari
Poole (formerly Mary Almond) being then alive.
Mr. DUNN, for the prisoner, cross-examined the
witnesses, in order to show that before Mary Al'
mond married the prisoner, she was the wife of
man who had been transported and has since re-
turned to this country, and that she left the prisoner
to cohabit with this man; but none of the witnesse'
could say more than that she had cohabited with the
transport; whether married or not they could not say,
The registries of the two marriages were then put
in evidence.

Mr. DUNN objected that there was a variance be
tween the proof and the charge in the indictment:
the indictment charged the prisoner with having in.
termarried with Mary Almond, spinster, and the
registry proved that he married Mary Almond'
widow. As the word " spinster" was a matter o',
description, the averment should be proved as laid.
His LORDSHIP held the objection to be fatal, and
the prisoner was acquitted.
This case terminated the assizes here.

TO IMPROVE THE COMPLEXION.
AT this Season of the Year, when Eruptions,
Rashes, and Irritations of the Skin are so preva-
lent, Mrs. VINCENT'S LOWLAND'S LOTION is
the only resource for the safe and certain cure of that dis-
agreeable sensation. This delightful Lotion acts by gently
and kindly opening the pores of the Skin, extracting and
dulcifying the Morbid Virus lurking in it, and restoring
it to health and clearness. Mrs. Vincent is continually re-
ceiving tributes of applause from the most exalted ranks
in Europe; the most delicate lady or child may at all times
use this Lotion with the greatest safety, but its unexampled
reputation has induced many imitations. To prevent injury
and disappointment to the misled, see the name M. E.
Vineent upon all that is Genuine.

THE ARMY.

This morning, in honour of her Majesty's birth-day, a
grand inspection of the household troops took place on the
parade in St. James's Park. Detachments from the flank
companies of the Foot Guards were trooped round the
parade, and went through their various evolutions in a
manner which appeared to give great satisfaction. The
inspection took place before General Lord Hill, Com-
mander-in-Chief, Major-General Macdonald, the Adjutant-
General of the Forces, General Dalbiac, and others of Lord
Hill's Staff.

A detachment of the Royal Hone Guards, blue, were
also trooped.
The Regiment of the 9th Lancers appeared this morn-
ing in their new uniform, which now consists of a scarlet
jacket, instead of blue, as hitherto worn by theca. The
men had a very fine and heathy appearance.

COURT OF CHARLES IL—The new Novel
of " Sir Ralph Ether" is considered to be a complete chef
d'xuvre in its way. A contemporary (the Morning
Herald) observes that " it requires no ordinary effort of
imagination to conjure up that brilliant company of ac-
tors and actresses, in the drama of gallantry and courtly
intrigue, which encircled like Orion's belt,' the merry
Monarch ; and no common masttry of graphic power to
depict with delicate and unaffected touches its constant
variation of action and motive, with all the verisimilitude of
an actually witnessed scene. Yet this has the author done,
emulating his prototypes iu the variety of his matter, sur-
passing them in a fictitious grouping of incidents, and
never forgetting their manner of composition but to excel it."
• •

MUNDEN'S parsimonious habits very fre-
quently became the butt of his brother performers. On
the night of his farewell, when bowing to and retreating
from the audience, be was fearful of his back coming in
contact with the wing ; and, in a whisper, frequently
asked OXIMMY if he was " near." " Aye, you dog,"
exclaimed Oxsanicr, " and bare been all your life,"

POLICE INTELLIGENGE.

T 0 WN- HALL.
John Collins and his wife Catherine, both Hiberniane,
were charged before Alderman ANSLEY with having in
their possession four gallons of illicit whiskey, the penalty
being thrice the value of the spirits, and forfeiture of the
same.

Wm. Hughes, an officer of excise, proved finding the
spirits, in consequence of information, at the house of the
prisoners, Well-alley, Bermondsey-street; they were pre-
paring at the time, to put it from stone bottles into blad-
ders, for the purposes of sale ; it proved to be whiskey, made
in a private still.
Alderman ANSLEY asked the prisoners what account
they had to give of it ?—Mrs. Collins, who had just ad-
minitered comfort to her dejected husband, said that all
they knew about it was, that an English gentleman, mighty.
genteel, brought two stone bottles to their house, and said
" Mr. Collins, I hear you are very queer in your intes-
tinals, and, for fear it should he the cholera, have brought
something to cure you, and you must drink hearty."...
(Loud laughter).

Alderman Atistvir (catching the infection)—What,
four gallons ! Enough to settle his business without the
aid of cholera. And who was the gentleman? Mrs.
Collins (curtsying)—That's what we'd like to know; but
his honour didn't please to tell us.
Alderman ANSLET—WeII I give you credit for a good
story, hut it won't do on this side of the water. Are you
prepared to pay the penalty ?_Mrs. Collins said they were
not; upon which they were lilt to be proceeded against
under the excise laws, by information; the'Act, singularly
enough, which provides three months hard labour in de. ri
fault of payment for possession of illicit spirits in transits',
being totally silent in the case of simple possession.

At a dinner given in St. Saviour's parish this
week, one of the toasts proposed from the chair
31ay the beauties of Southwark never smile on the Van-
dals who opposed the renovation of the Lady Chapel."

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

TODD V. THE WATERMAN'S COMPANY.

Sir JAMES SCARLETT, Mr. CAIsITBELL, and Mr. MUG-
GINS appeared for the plaintiff. The ATTORNEY-GE-
NERAL and Mr. FOLLETT for the defendants.

The case occupied the whole of the morning, bet the
question at issue may be thus briefly stated :
The plaintiff claimed to be admitted a freeman of the
Waterman's Company, by a servitude for seven
years, under an indenture of apprenticeship to a
master lighterman named Coleman. The Company re-
fused to admit him, on the ground that he had not served
his apprenticeship, upon which he obtained a rule in this
Court fer a mandamus to compel them to admit him,
and upon the return to that rule, which denied that hr
was a freeman, the present issue was directed, in order to
ascertain whether the plaintiff had or had not duly served
his term of apprenticeship.
A vast number of witnesses were called to prove that
the plaintiff was duly apprenticed to Coleman, who was
i❑ the employ of his the plaintiff's father, and that he had
served the whole period, navigating craft in the Thames.
The defence was that there had not been a servitude,
and that the plaintiff's apprenticeship to his father's ser-
vant was only to give a colour to an apparent servitude, in
order to his obtaining his freedom.
The case was not concluded when our reporter left.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

SANDERSON V. IBBERSON AND PENNY.

Mr. RICHARDS stated that the plaintiff in this action
was the keeper of the Boar and Castle, Oxford-street, and
a livery stable-keeper. The defendants were clerks in the
coach office at Lad-lane. The action was brought to re-
cover the value of a horse which the defendants had hired
to go to nirlop fair, and had so overdriven, that from the
time they returned him he had never been able to do any
work, and had died within three weeks after. The
Learned Gentleman called evidence in corroboration of his
statement, after which the Jury returned a verdict for the
plaintiff—Damages 141. I Si.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)
London, England, 1832-11-30

the writer would twin to hate in view, for all
plans are direct premiums upon improvi-
dence. For instance, he quotes Mr. BACON'S
evidence before the House of Lords :
", Supp -.se two men, one single and the other married,
with from five to seven children come into the labour-
market. With the same wages the single man will have
a comfortable subsistence, while the mats with a large
family must have relief, and it is not to he expected that
a farmer should pay the one more than the other.
Then comes the question how the maintenance of their
families is to be gotten rid of? I think the only aid is
the assistance of small portions of land under such conditions
as may enable the married labourer to earn the necessary
subsistence for hitaiself and family.' " I entirely agree
with Mr. Bacon. Relief by occupation of land should at all
times be preferred to pecuniary assistance, and when an
advance of money becomes indispensable, it should be given
by way of loan under the 59th Geo. III." •

Here the married labourer is to be put i❑ a
situation of greater comfort than the single
one ; the only difference between the present
plan and that proposed being, that the encou-
ragement is given in the shape of land in-

stead of money. Does not, or will not,
the author see, that unless the situation
of a man not entirely dependent upon his
own exertions be made infinitely worse than that
of a man who does, a premium is held out to
idleness and improvidence ? Let him suppose
all hi plans successful to his heart's content, and
the labouring poor in full profitable employ-
ment, does he imagine that whilst they can
fall back upon the labour of others, they
will not go on increasing and multiplying
till, in a few years, we again find ourselves in
precisely the same predicament as at present ?
Instead of proposing grants from the public
Treasury, let him, in conjunction with any plan
for the temporary and immediate relief of the
poor, propose the abolition of the poor laws,
and teach the labouring population to depend
upon their own exertions and forethought.
That it must come to this there can be
no doubt, and the only question is, whether
it should he done now, that there still exists a
large middle class with independent feelings, or
whether we shall wait till its grades be -suc-
cessively merged in the mass of pauperism which
it now support.

BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 26.—An estafette from Paris, with
despatches from the Duke of Dalmatia for Marshal Gerard,
passed through Brussels yesterday afternoon.
Eighty waggons, a battery of artillery, and wo
patties of the sixth squadron of the train, arrived here
yesterday, and will go to.day to Antwerp.
Tae head quarters of General Niellon were at M ildag-
hem yesterday at noon.
_ _

Part of the combined fleet was in sight of Ostend
yesterday.
From the information which we have received respect-
ing the engagement between our troops and the Dutch at
the Point tie Paille, it seems that our men, wishing to
prevent a traffic in cattle which was carried on with the
Dutch, a skirmish took place, which did not lead to any
further cons, (pence
We hear from Bruges that soldiers of the foreign bat-
talion daily pass through that town on their way to Os-
tend, whence they will embark for Oprto.
The Emancipation says, that " the Marshal having
stated the d•ff rences between lihnselfand the Belgian Go-
vernment respecting the operations fur the siege of the cita-
del of Antwerp, and the French Government being un-
willing to take the decision on itself, had referred it to the
Englisn Cabinet, which is said to have decided that an at-
tack must not be made from the city side, though Mar-
shal Gerard had declared that the attack from the side of
Boom might cause him to lose many men, and protract
the siege." _ _ -

We learn (says the Gazette of the province of Luxem.
burg) from a source which we consider as authentic, that
France and England have proposed to Prussia to give to
it, by way of depot, the territories which revert to Hol-
land, but not till after the conclusion of a convention
regulating the rights and duties of the inhabitants. The
at,swer of Prussia has not been received, or is not known.
The time of evacuation on our part remains uncertain.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 27.—An extraordinary courier was
sent yesterday with despatches from the King to General
Des/arra, at Lierre.

N. Tollenay, Secretary- to the French
,Legation, gone,.
to Antwerp.

We learn th ►t from to-clay the gates of Malicia will be
shut against carriages, including even the diligences.
The Gazette of Bruges of th? 26th sap :—" The
Dutch, who had 1 t off the water from ti,e Belgian territory
near Lapsderiere, and who had been working for a
week at a dike, to limit it needful the extent of the inun-
dation, again let in the salt water on Sdturday night.
Yesterday morning the water at the Zware S!uis was ten
feet deep."

On the 23d the Dee English steam-boat, belonging to the
combined squadron, arrived at Ostend, and landed Lieu-
tenant Lepinc, Aide-de-Camp to Admiral Villeneuve, to
make inquiries respecting the French army before Ant-
werp. On Saturday several English officers landed, who
purchased French provisions. In the afternoon the Dee
returned to the squadron, which was at Stock. Three
English and three French frigates are cruising off the
mouths of the Dutch rivers.
