C ftIEFF.—As some people were lately turning
up the ground near the fort, where the castle once stood,
on the Milton Burn, they discovered a great number of
stone coffins of various dimensions. They were all of
stone, with the exception of one, which had been made of
fine clay, and, as is conjectured, contained the remains of
some ancient Thane. In all the coffins, as well as the
urns within them, there was a mixture of burnt bones
and ashes ; and with the latter there was also the appear-
ance of burnt wood. As this spot is near the remains of
a place of Druidical worship, these ashes are supposed to
be those of some of the victims sacrificed, according to
custom, at the burial of a great Chief. The castle of
Craig is mentioned in the Scottish Chronicles, and was a
place of great strength.—Perth Courier.
SIGNS AND TOKENS.-If you see a man
and woman, with little or no occasion, often find fault, and
correcting each other in company, you may be sure they
are husband and wife. If you see a lady and gentleman in
the same coach, in profound silence, the one looking eut
at one window, and the other at the opposite side, be
assured they mean no harm to each other, but are husband
and wife. If you see a lady accidentally let fall a glove or
a handkerchief, and a gentleman that is next to her tell her
of it, that she may herself pick it up, set them down for
husband and wife. If you see a man and woman constantly
thwarting each other, under the appellation of my dear, my
life, &c., rest assured they are husband and wife.—The
Parrot.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,

QUEEN-SQUARE.

Yesterday Mr. Edward Fordham, a gentleman
of fortune, from Cambridgeshire, and Mr. Edward
Tatha►n, jun., a partner in the highly respectable
house of Tatham and Son, the well-known sword
cutlers, No. 37, Charing-cross, were charged before
Mr. MARRIOTT with defrauding Mrs. Esther Tomp-
kins, a fruiterer, of No. 11; Charing-cross, of
eighteen shillings, and two shillings' worth of
oranges, under the following exraordinary circum-
stances :

It might to be mentioned, that Mr. Tatham was
not charged in the first instance with the fraud, but
attended at the office as a witness for Mr. Fordham,
when, after the statement of the prosecutrix, Mr.
Marriott directed him to be included in the charge.
The prosecutrix stated, that on the previous
evening, between nine and ten o'clock, the pri-
soners came into her shop. Mr. Fordham a-ke I
for two shillings' worrh of oranges, which she gave
him in a bag. He then asked her for change of a
sovereign, and at the same time he gave the oranges
to his friend Mr. Tatham, and told him to take them
over the way. She brought him the change
(eighteen shillings), which she gave to Mr. Ford-
ham, who nas about to leave the shop when she
told him that he had not given her the sovereign;
he insisted upon it that he had given her the sove-
reign and refused to pay her; she at last sent for a
police constable and gave him in charge. They went
to the station-house in Gardner's-lane, when Mr.
Fordham offered to pay her the sovereign, which
she refused to accept without he would admit that
he had not paid her the sovereign in the shop. This
he declined doing.

Mr. MARRIOTT said that she had acted with great
propriety in refusing the sovereign at the station-
house, and asked her what money she gave him in
change ? The prosecutrix replied, that she gave
Mr. Fordham a half-sovereign, two half-crowns, and
three shillings.

" There is a great deal of good humour in the composition of
these dialogues; the author's plan of giving the English first,
after the idiom of the French, and then according to the regular
form of the language, we have before alluded to with the appro-
bation it merits."—Atlas.

" A most useful elementary little work, upon the best plan
which we have met with, and highly useful for all students of the
French language. We know no treatise better adapted to its
object"—Metropolitan Magazine.
" The mode adapted for familiarising the student with the gen-
ders by the arrangement of the first and last letters is simple and
ingenious, and has the advantage of novelty to recommend it."—
Court Journal.

In spite of these recommendations, some French masters
will not use this work, fur the sole reason that it must
bring the pupils too rapidly forward.

PERI AL PA RLIAMEM

OF THIS EVENING.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

The SrEAKER entered the House at Four o'clock.

Colonel TRENCH gave notice that, on Monday next,
he would bring forward a motion for a Committee to in-
quire into the beat mode of accommodating the Members
of the House.

Mr. PENLEAZE presented a petition (from what
place we could not hear) praying that a Bill might be
passed to enforce a general system of drainage in all towns
in England.
That petition gave rise to sonte observations from Mr.
If I:51E, Mr. SANDFORD, and the SPEAKER. The latter
said, that it had ben usual to allow the inhabitants of
each place to judge for themselves as to whether they
wished for any legislative enactment in regard to such
matters as draining, but the object of these petitioners was
to enforce one system in all places.
Mr. HUME observed that a general Bill would do
much for the health of the community, and if one were
passed it could be left to the majority of the inhabitants
of each town to decide upon receiving the benefit of it.
Lord MORPETH presented petitions from the Physi-
cians and Surgeons of Leeds and Halifax, praying for a
law to be passed by which the science of anatomy might
be acquired without rendering the profession liable to pu-
nishment.

Mr. HUNT was not surprised at these petitions from
the Doctors, but he was surprised that there was no peti-
tion from those whose bodien were likely to he subjected to
dissection. lie did not hear that any of those physicians
or surgeons had offered to give their own bodies for dis-
section.

Lard MORPETII, in answer to the Hon. Member,
said he bad presented a petition upon this subject, which
had been agreed to at a public meeting in Wakefield,
which was the first public meeting for that-object, and
reflected great credit upon the petitioners.

MRS. SIDDONS.

It was a favourite, and a just maxim of Fro
derick of Prussia, that accident must first lift
man from the ground ; but that, once raised, tin
vigour of his own wing can alone sustain him
Mrs. Siddons verified the truth of this maxim
Bath was, undoubtedly, a desirable station ti
her ; for it was then, more than now, a selec
London. But the theatre for some time wa:
sufficiently cool when she played ; and Palmer
troubled her only on his Thursday nights, when
the Cotillon Balls carried off every body whc
could move to the rooms, and when, conse.
quelitly, that eye, which ere long was to fas.
cinate all ranks and ages, was frequently bent on
vacancy. At last came Frederick's " accident."
On one of these devoted Thursdays, there hap.
pened to be in the theatre persons not only 01
consummate taste, but, what is of infinitely more
consequence in such matters, persons whose
taste carried with it the authority of station. It
was in vain that equal, perhaps superior, taste,
on foot, had already pronounced her great ; the
taste which rolls in a carriage, and speaks from
titled lips, is the taste that becomes an oracle.

How the wit brightens, and the style refines !"

DECLARATION, AND TIME FOR,
.

A plaintiff shall be deemed out of Court unless he declare
within one year after the process is returnable.

When the plaintiff declares against a prisoner, it shall not be

which one shall be served, and another filed with an affidavit of
service; upon the office copy of which affidavit a rule to plead
may be given.

Where a cause has been removed from an inferior Court, the
rule to declare may be given within four days after the end of
the term in which the writ is returned.

It shall not be necessary for a defendant in any case to give
a rule to declare, except upon removal from inferior Courts;
but the plaintiff may have a rule for time to declare in the
Court of Exchequer as well as in the other Courts.
A rule to declare peremptorily may be absolute in the first
instance.

that mentioned in the process shall not be deemed a water of
he bail.

It shall not be deemed necessary to express the amount of

ment be made of the same term as the declaration, or of a dif.

ERRATUM.

In our Leading Article of yesterday the following sentence
occurs :—" Who rank higher in history than Hume and
Gibbon P Yet these too were stigmatized as free-thinkers by
the ecclesiastical authorities of their time." In this sentence
the word " Atheists" should be substituted for " free .thinkers."
Hume and Gibbon were, it was well known, somewhat hete-
rodoz ; the term free-thinkers, therefore, applied to them by
the High Church party, would not be altogether inappropriate.

LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 29, 1832,

Accounts have been received from Antwerp
and Brussels of Tuesday's date, at which
period nothing decisive had taken place, but
every thing was in readiness for commencing the

siege.
It appears that an army of 45,000 Dutch
troops has been concentrated between Breda
and Bergen-op-Zoom, with an intention
to make a diversion during the siege.
Marshal GERARD is, however, prepared
for them, so that unless General CHASSE
surrender to the summons there will be
hot work for both parties. We still think
that the Dutch will see the prudence of sparing
the unnecessary effusion of blood by timely

CORONER'S INQUEST.

Yesterday morning Mr. Baker, the Coroner, and
a respectable Jury, assembled in the house of John
Burney, Esq., in Kensington-square, to hold an in•
quest on the body of Mrs. Burney.
Miss Eliza Burney, who was much affected, stated
that on Wednesday, Nov. 21, her mother and her-
self were driving in a one-horse phaeton down the
Wellington drive in Hyde Park, and had nearly ar•
rived at the bottom when a groom, mounted on one
horse, and leading another, rode furiously towards
them, and crossed in front of them. The horse
upon which he was knocked against their horse, and
caused it to start back ; and as soon as he had passed
on, their horse set off at full speed, and almost
mediately overturned the carriage. Her mother,
who was driving, was thrown heavily on the ground,
and was taken up insensible. She lingered in great
pain until Monday evening, when she expired at
eleven &clock.

Mr. Maitland, of High-street, Kensington, a me-
dical gentleman, stated the nature of the injuries
that Mrs. Burney had received, and gave it as his
opinion that they were the cause of her death.

- Mr. George -Hurst, of No. .5, Sr. George's-ter•
race—As soon as the accident occurred he went uP
to the groom and demanded his name, and that of
his master; he was evidently much intoxicated, but
seemed frightened at the accident, arid after some
hesitation gave his name Henry Rainer, and said he
was groom to Lord Palmerston. Mr. Hurst then
proceeded to Lord Palmerston's house in Stanhope',
street, and inquired of the porter if there was a
groom on the establishment of the name of Henri
Rainer, and if he was out that morning with big
master's horses. The answer was in the affirmative.
The Jury almost immediately fohnd a verdict of
" Manslaughter" against Henry Rainer, and the
Coroner issued his warrant for his apprehension.
*.,„,* This is the accident the cause of which 5
respectable correspondent erroneously imputed to
the groom of the Duke of Wellington, which the
police had heard nothing of (!), but which has now
become a matter of record in a criminal Court.

LONDON SESSIONS.

Yesterday these Sessions commenced at Guild-
hall, before the LORD MAYOR, RECORDER, and a
Bench of Aldermen.

A lodging-house keeper, named Isaacs, was in-
dicted for wringing Mrs. Jones, who is also a lodg-
ing-house keeper, most cruelly by the nose. The case
excited a great deal of laughter.
The prosecutrix, who is a Welshwoman, said,
As I was standing at my door, Isaacs stood at
his, just opposite, and said, " How would you like
to have the nose wringed out of your face ? I'd
pull it for you." "No," says I, " I hope you won't
to no such a thing." " Oh, yes," says he, " I
will ;" arid he pulled it strong, sure enough.—(A
laugh.) So I went in, for my nose pained sadly.
I never spitted in his face afore he wringed me nor
atty.

The prosecutor's daughter—l see'd the thing
done. Mother creeked when he tugged her nose.
It must have hurt her, and she was grewly flur-
iyded. He throwed her into the street as well, and
lie was quite terrific.—(Laughter.)
Counsel for the prisoner—lsn't a poor cripple un-
able to knock anybody about ? Witness—Bnh !
nonsense !he a cripple Why, man, he jumped
about like a lamb.—(Laughter.) Neither mother
nor me spitted in his eye. I was close to her all the
time, and she shaked most violent.
A watchman—Plase you, my Lord, I was a walk-
ing down the street, a doing of my duty, when I
see Mr. Isaacs catch the nos_e and give it a good
roundabout twist. He did wring it, indeed.
Counsel for the prisoner—How could you see it
when you were not on the spot at the time ?—How
could I? Why, if that ere gentleman (pointing to
Mr. Adolphus) wringed you by the nose, wouldn't
I see it ?—(Great laughter.)
The Counsel could prove that the lady gave the
first offence, by spitting in his client's face.

Warchman:--Spit in his face ! She didn't spit in
nobody's face.
The Counsel for the prisoner made an ingenious
defence, and took occasion to compliment the .Tury
on the occasion—Gentlemen, said he, is it at all pro-
bable that a man should so flagrantly insult a woman
without having been provoked to it by gross conduct
on her part ? Is it the natural disposition of a man
to insult a respectable-looking woman ? Would any
one of you do it, Gentlemen ?—(Loud laughter.)
Mrs. Elizabeth Jenkins—l saw Mrs. Jones spit
in the defendant's face, and say to him, " Go, in,
you poor cripple, to your * *of a wife."
Counsel for the prosecution—What ! Didn't you
see the lady's nose pulled ? No, I see nobody's nose
pulled. I'm sure I didn't see Mr. Isaacs pull no nose.
The Jury told the Recorder that they would save
him the trouble of summing up. The matter was as
clear as possible. They then pronounced a verdict.
of Guilty : and one of the Jury said they considered
it a very gross assault.
The defendant was fined 205., and bound over in
his recognizances, to the amount of 201., to keep
the peace towards the prosecutrix for one year.

THE FUNDS -(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK.
We have no arrivals of importance this morning with
the exception of one ►rom Oporto, and the arrival of the
Marquis Palmella, the objpct of whose journey to this coun-
try is not exactly ascertained. Report says that Don Miguel
is going to abdicate the throne. This requires confirmation.
The successful sortie of Don Pedro is confirmed ; but
if he does not make another to disenable the Miguelites frog'
blockading the port, all his surceases will prove of little
importance.
The estafette from Paris brings a report that no hosti-
lities wi!l take place with Holland, owing to which the
French Funds have improved per cent.
A mail has arrived from Rio de Janeiro, sailed on the

2d of October, which brings the Exchange 39 to 40.
Four ships of the Scheldt expedition have returned to

the Downs.

Report says that General Chaise has inundated the
country round the citadel of Antwerp.
The Ostend steamer has not yet arrived.

It is settling day is the Foreign Market.

HALF-PAST ONE.
We have second editions of many journals blowing about
in the city in all directions, of important news from Ant-
werp, but when purchased they turn out to be a catch'
penny.
The Ostend steamer has arrived, and it is generally re-
ported that the summons for the surrender of the citadel
has been refused, and that notice has been given to the
inhabitants of Antwerp to leave. This is only report ni‘
present, as the letters are not yet delivered, We cannot
trace it to any authentic source.
Consols continue steady at 831 for the Account, with
little doing.
This being pay day for the Account, one defaulter has
been declared in the House, but not of great note.
The Foreign Market is void of interest ; they are busy

in making up their accounts.

THE EARL OF FALMOUTH V. THOMAS.

Lord LYNDHURST pronounced the judgment of the
Court upon the demurrers herein. The first count of the
declaration stated that the plaintiff was possessed of a farm,
on which there we,e certain crops and certain labour had
been bestowed, and materials employed thereon, and in
consideration that the plaintiff had let the farm to de-
fendant for fourteen years, the defendant promised
to pay for the crops and labour. The breach
was that he had not paid. The defendant pleaded
that there was no agreement in writing, and it was con-
tended by his Counsel, that he was protected by the 4th
section of the Statute of Frauds, enacting " that no action
shall be brought to charge any person upon any contract
or sale of lands, or any interest in them, unless the agree-
ment shall be in writing, and signed by the party to be
charged therewith." We think that the defendant
comes under the protection of this statute. It was
then urged for the plaintiff that the defendant was
liable on the counts for a quantum meruit and for an
account stated, but to these counts the Statute of Frauds
was also pleaded, to which the plaintiff replied that the
crops were taken after the verbal agreement. The object
of the plaintiff was to take, if possible, his case out of the
Statute of Frauds, but he has been defeated in that object.
The declaration therefore is bad in these counts. An-
other count charges the defendant with cultivating and
managing the farm in an improper manner and contrary to
the custom of the country. To this the delandaut has de-
murred specially, and has stated for cause that the count
is uncertain and vague, the plaintiff not having set forth
what the custom is. We are, however, of opinion that,
although the count is certainly in general terms, yet it
is sufficient. There must therefore be judgment fir the
plaintiff on the demurrers to that count, and for the de-
fendant on the other demurrers.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Nov. 26.

MR. MONCK MASON'S BANKRUPTCY.

The adjourned meeting of the creditors of Mr. Monck
Mason, of the Opera-house, for the proof of debts and
choke of assignees, took place to-day at one o'clock.
The amount of debts proved was only 4,296/. ; hut we
were informed that the total of the bankrupt's debts were
about 33,000/., distributed in somewhere about the fol-
lowing proportions:—to Mr. Mason, the bankrupt's
father, 12,000/. ; to Mr. Ottley, for money advanced,
4,500/. ; to Mr. Shaw, 2,5001.; to tradesmen, 4,0001.;
to different performers, 8,000/. ; to the committee for
sums advanced on the properties of the Opera-house,
Mr. Ottley was allowed to enter a claim for 2,900/., hav-
ing a security for so touch of his debt, and to prove only
for the remainder of the 4,500/. Mr. Spangnoletti
proved for 123/., and many of the servants of the Opera-
house for small sums of Si. and 101. No opinion can yet
be given of the probable amount of assets, but it was
stated that the value of Mr. Monck Mason's share of the
properties of the theatre was 9,0001. ➢lr. Samuel Alfred
Gol,!ney, of Regent-street, the petitioning creditor, was
elected assignee.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.

Bravo, who first appeared in the betting on Thursday last,
sprung several points yesterday ; he was backed to small amounts
at 22, 23. and 24 to 1, by his gallant owner and two or three
other gentlemen. In our last we stated that Bravo was pur-
chased from the late Captain Locke; this is a mistake; he was
bred by Mr. De Burgh, and bought when a foal by the present
owner. Lord Exeter's Marinella colt declined to 30 to 1. The
only horses backed were the following :

DERBY, 1833.
8 to 1 agst Mr. Ridsdale's Glaucus
10 to 1 agst Mr. Rawlinson's Revenge
17 to 1 agst Duke of Rutland's Moses's dam c.
'2'2 to 1 agst Colonel Cosby's Bravo
30 to I agst Lord Exeter's Marinella colt
300 even between Moses's darn and Bravo
The others as before.

THE FRENCH ARMY.

(From the Nouvelliste of Sunday.)

The following statement will show the composition and
situation of the French Army of the North, on the 22d of
November, 1832:

VANGUARD-THE DUKE OF ORLEANS.

Three battalions of the 20th light infantry ; four F qua-
drons of the Ist Hussars ; ditto of Ist Lancers ; posted on
the road from Breda to Rosendaal ; head-quarters at
Braaschaet.
London, England, 1832-11-27

DUBLIN, Nov. 24.

There is a report current in town this morninz, of an
affray between the police and country people at Taghmon,
in the county W xfo:d, in which four of the latt-r were
killed. How true the rumour may be, or what the cause
of such collision between the people and officers of p ace
in that generally quiet and pacific county, I cannot ascer-
tain ; but tithes, that f-rtile cause of lawles-ness and
bloodshed, is supposed to be the origin in this, as in other
instances, of the unhappy event.
This is commencement day at our University, when
great numbers of those who have not Masters' degrees, or
any higher, are qualifying for the approaching election.
The constituency is expected to be more extensive than
was at first imagined, as there are already nine hundred
names on the books, the greater part of whom will, no
doubt, be prepared to vote, besides all who may replice
their names before the 29th inst. (the second commence-
ment day) at the next election. You are aware that there
are four candidates in the field—the Solicitor-General,
Mr. Lefroy (ex-Sergeant), Mr. Shaw, Recorder of Dub-
lin, and the Hon. Mr. Ponsonby. Mr. Lefroy and the
Recorder stand in the Conservative interest, and are said
to be supported by large sums of money from the funds
of the Conservative Society, to enable poor clergymen and
curates to become their constituents. On the other hand,
Government hopes, sustained by the death of the late
Bishop of Waterford, to enlist a great many in the ranks
of the Solicitor. General and Mr. Ponsonhy. The former
does not, however, as might be expected, derive much
support front the members of the long robe, many of
whom, though possessing liberal politics, do not like him
as a Member of a Whig Government ; but he is likely to
be compensated for this, by deserters from the opposite
party, who, so long accustomed to favour and fawn upon
the powers that be, cannot refrain from doing so at a
crisis, even though the power be transferred to hands pro-
fessedly not liberal to them. It is said that many mem-
bers of the bar, hitherto Conservatives, will either not vote
at all, give cross votes, or go against their party.
The conclusion of the trial of the King v. the Primate,
of which an outline has appeared in The Sun, is, that
the Crown has been obliged to pay 400/. to the Special
Jury, besides other costs. It is said, however, that there
will be an appeal in the cause to the House of Lords.
The case was tried once before, with a similar result, in
the county Cavan.
