AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Your West Indian friends will be much interested ill
learning that above one hundred English agricultural labour•
ers in families have already been sent to Jamaica to work 013
the plantations, and that about five hundred more are now e
listing for the same purpose._

Mr. Peter Wells, of 56, Harrow-road, Paddington, a gee:
tleman who resided many years in Jamaica, is actively eln.:
ployed in this service, and the best results are anticipated fro.'
this new feature in the management of our West India For
sessions.
The greatest care and comfort are promised to these peopil
during their services in Jamaica, and even land is farmed ou.
to each contiguous to the estates on their arrival. None are
engaged except such as can be well recommended by the
clergymen of the different parishes. The absolute refusal
the negroes to work for wages durinc, their own time—tbeu
indolence during the allotted hours of labour—and the i_
ciency of the stipendiaries to enforce industry, or even obew-
ence, have left this as the only alternative to a total abandon
ment of the cultivation of the estates.

Yours, respectfully,
A CONSTANT READER'

IRELAND.

CLOSE OF THE GORTROE INQUEST.
WEDNESDAY-FOURTEENTH DAY.

At eleven o'clock the Court assembled, when the Jury
answered to their names.

Previous to the business being entered on, Theobald
Pepper, C.C.P., addressed the Court, and said that did
the gentlemen consider it necessary, be should produce the
orderly who accompanied him on the day of the affray, for
the purpose of proving the fallacy of James Daly's evidence,
a witness produced on the part of the prosecution, who
swore that he (Mr. Pepper) ordered a dragoon to follow
him, and cut him (James Daly) down with his sword. The
effect which the statement had produced in the country was
of very serious consequence to him, so much so that one of
his men, while passing ,along the road the day previously,
had been accosted by a number of persons and called a
" murderer." Therefore, if he (Captain Pepper) did not
contradict the statement of that man (Daly) it might en-
danger the lives of him or his party.
The Counsel on both sides acknowledged they did not
believe the statement in any one particular. Many of the
Jury spoke in the highest terms of the conduct of Mr.
Pepper and the party under his command, and all agreed
that there was not the slightest impression on their minds of
Mr. Pepper being in any way guilty of such an act.

CHARGE OF THE CORONER.

Mr. Coroner Foott then proceeded to charge the Jury.
He said—Gentlemen of the Jury, after a very arduous ex-
amination of witnesses on both sides this inquiry is very
nearly brought to a conclusion, and it is now in duty to
call your attention to the facts produced, which I shall do
in a very brief manner, and not take up one-fiftieth part of
the time expended in the examination of any one of the
witnesses produced. You have been here assembled to try
how Richard Ryan, Wm. Twomy, Michael Barry, John

a measure of Catholic emancipation more sweeping than
any that had ever been proposed. Such conduct as this it
was that destroyed the character of public men, which as
public property, he could not but lament. After some fur-
ther remarks Mr. Stanley concluded amidst the hearty
cheers of his friends.

W. T. EGERTON, Esq., in addressing the freeholders,
was firmly attached to all the institutions of the country in
Church and State. But at the same time he was ready to
give his best consideration to any measure of improvement
which, without impairing the efficiency, might tend to ex-
tend the utility of the Church, or to rivet it more closely
on the affections of the people.—(Cheers.) The present
Ministry, against whom so many attacks had been directed
by his Hon. Colleague, he should support when in the
right, and vote against when he thought them wrong.—
(Cheers.) But so long as the present Ministry adhered
to the sentiments avowed in Sir Robert Peel's address, he
would give them his most cordial support.—(Cheers.)
The SHERIFF declared Mr. Stanley and Mr. Wilbraham
duly elected ; whereupon those gentlemen briefly returned
thanks, and moved a vote of thanks to that functionary,
which was carried by acclamation.

SURREY THEATRE.

An entire change of performances attracted an overflowing
audience to this establishment last night. The first piece was
a domestic drama, in two acts, entitled Wealth and Want,
and involves the story of a farmer Luttrell (Davidge) who, in
a fit of mistaken jealousy, accompanies an incendiary, who
fires the barn and outhouses of Luttrell's supposed rival. The
fire communicates to the mansion—it is burnt—and in it the
child of Luttrell, who slept there that night. This is the
main plot. There is ati under one, in which a radical and
leveller ( Mr. Horner) and his adherents, and an ultra-Tory ma-
gistrate (Mr. W. Smith) arc sketched in very glowing co-
lours. The piece concludes with poetical justice to all parties
—the real incendiary suffers—Luttrell is set free—and the
child, who has been borne away by an unknown friend, appears
at last "unharmed, unhurt." To Davidge, Miss Watson, and
a clever child (Miss Hicks) are entrusted the serious portions
of the drama, and most effectively they performed their task.
In one scene (that where the farmer discovers that his child
slept at the mansion which he is supposed to have destroyed)
Davidge's acting was powerfully affecting. The piece con-
tains many time-serving allusions, which elicited shouts of"
laughter ; and, from its blending broad comedy with powerful
interest, is likely to have a profitable rut:. It was announced
for every evening without a dissentient voice. The ballad
opera of The Shipwreck followed, and another called Broad-
sea Cliffs, which, from the crowded state of the house, we
did not witness throughout ; but it appeared to be giving great
satisfaction, as Mathews says in the " Race Course," "
those as could see.'

SUBSTITUTE FOR INDIGO.

- -

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
read an advertisement in your .Journal respecting
• the " Substitute for Indigo," and I went to No. 2, Copthall
Chambers, for the purpose of inspecting the various articles
dyed with this substitute. I was much gratified in seeing various
specimens, all of them good, and some of the colours far more
brilliant than can be produced by indigo. I was present when
the Patentee submitted them to some powerful chemical tests ;
among them were all descriptions of acids, urine, and various
others, and I was perfectly astonished at the solidity of colour.
I also witnessed the fact, that where a most powerful chemical
application could disturb the colour, another re-active restored,
it in a great degree ; this cannot be done with indigo, for nitric-
acid detects and destroys that colour, and it cannot be restored
or redyed. Your Journal is extensively circulated in those-
parts of the kingdom where this great discovery is most likely-
to be useful, and I take the liberty of asking you to insert this
letter, in order that other persons may have the opportunity of
witnessing what I have stated.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,- Allow me to suggest the following plan to be adopted
at this important crisis.
Let every constituency in the United Xing,dom, where
Liberals are returned for Members in the ensuing Parliament,
send one or two delegates to town, furnished with a few printed
copies of the substance of the speeches as delivered on the
hustings at the late election by each Member.
Let each Member be supplied with copies of his speeches,
and let the delegato be in daily communication with the Mem-
ber for the first two or three weeks after the assembling or
Parliament.
Let this be done, and real Reformers will have justice exne
them. I am, Sir,

the removal of the evils referred to in this Report, arising
from erroneous estimates (as it appears to your Committee)
of the expenditure of the county—from the manner of
making the county-rates--and the collection of the rates

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

G UILDHALL.
A new mode of dealing with utterers of base coin has
just been adopted at this Office in consequence of the in-
creasing prevalence of the offence in this district. The Mint
officers are extremely circumspect in not prosecuting any
case where the conviction of the offenders does not appear
to be inevitable. Even where a party has just been re-
leased from gaol for a similar offence, it is required that
two fresh instances of uttering shall at the least be adduced
to sustain the charge of being a common utterer ; and of
every five persons who have been apprehended as smashers,
four have been discharged without punishment.
Upon the last renewal of the Police Act (3d of William
IV., cap. 19), in 1833, an enormous addition was quietly
made to the summary jurisdiction of the Magistrates, for,
while under the old Police Act they could only adjudge a
person to be a rogue and vagabond whom there was just
ground to suspect of frequenting the streets with intent to
commit felony, the new law authorises them to treat as
rogues and vagabonds persons suspected of intending to
commit any offence, who shall not be able to give a satis-
factory account of himself or herself,'and of his or her way
of living.
On Saturday a man was so committed upon proof that
he had uttered a base half-crown, Mr. Field, the Mint In-
spector, deposing that he knew him, and believed him to
be a common utterer, and the prisoner not giving a satis-
tory account of himself ; and yesterday a woman and a lad
undoubted Common utterers, were dealt with in the same
summary way.
For a second offence against the Police Act the party is
to be committed to the Sessions, and may there be sen-
tenced to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for one
year ; and, further, if the Court shall see fit (the party not
being a female), to be whipped at such time and such place
as, according to the nature of the offence, may be deemed
expedient.
London, England, 1835-01-28

on the 14th instant, she, had given the prisoner the linen of
the family as usual. Part of them had been returned ; the
others were missing.
Charles Bond, shopman to Mr. Kimber, of Knightsbridge,
Mr. Perkins, of the King's-road, and Mr. Thomson, of
Grosvenor-row, pawn-brokrs, proved that the prisoner had
pledged the different articles at their shops.
General Bruce said the value of the property was 503.
The prisoner, on being called upon for her defence,
denied having any intention of stealing the things. She in-
tended to replace them.
Mr. BURRELL fined her 40s. for illegally pawning, and
50s. the value of the articles.

In default of payment she eras committed for one month
o the House of Correction.

Mr. Thomas Hose anon, a gentleman of very fashionable
appearance, residing at No. ill, Grosvenor-street, West
Pimlico, was charged before Messrs. GREGORIE and BUR'
BELL, by Major John Holt White, of No. 5, in the same
street, with an assault.
From the evidence it appeared that Mr. Hoseason had
endeavoured to provoke the Major, the cause for which did
not transpire ; and

Major White stated that, on Thursday last, the defen-
dant came to his house and threatened to use his stick over

his (complainant's) shoulders ; but was prevented by Mr.
George Stevenson, a friend, who happened to be present.
He had known the defendant about six months, and swore
that he went in fear of his life.

The Magistrates ordered Mr. Hoseason to find bail to
answer the charge, which he did in the course of the day.
A lad, named Wyatt, was charged by Edward Routledg6
with having disturbed the congregation, during Divine Ser-
vice, in the chapel in Palace-street, Pimlico.

It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was an
incorrigible young scamp, and completely hardened in de-
pravity. He came into the chapel on Sunday morning
and immediately began making a disturbance. He wag
turned out, when he threw a large stone against the inner
door of the chapel, which had nearly burst it open, and very
much alarmed the congregation.

Mr. Routledge said he did not wish to press the charge
against the prisoner, if he would promise not to offend again•
Mr. BURRELL, after admonishing him as to his future
conduct, ordered him to be given up to his parents.

HATTON-GARDEN.

Yesterday a woman, between 30 and 40 years of age,
named Georgina Clarke, was brought to this office, charged
with having murdered a man named Henry Jenkins.
When Mr. BENETT (the Magistrate) was made ac-
quainted with the nature of the offence imputed to the pri-
soner, he desired all the witnesses to leave the office, ob-
serving that in cases of assault it was a rule to have one
witness only at a time before the Justices, and he thought
it ought to be the case in charges of felony—at all events,
he should henceforth adopt that practice.
phoebe Davidson deposed that she lived at No. 1, Ar-
gyll-place, Tonbridge-street, New-road, where the prisoner,
who had for a length of time cohabited with the deceased,
also resided. On Saturday night, at 1 1 o'clock, she went
into deceased's froom, and seeing him in bed, and the pri-
soner sitting by him, she asked him what was the matter ;
and he said he had hurt himself, at the same time showing a
place on his side which bad some plaster upon it. She
asked him if he was hurt much ; and he said it was a mere
nothing—he was more frightened than hurt. I.Vhcri he
got more composed, she inquired how it happened ; and he
answered, " that while cutting a piece of wood, the knife
slipped and entered his side. There were three knives upon
the table, and said it was one of them, and although she
examined them, she saw nothing particular about them. She
stayed with him until two o'clock, and then went to bed,
leaving the prisoner with him. At 5 o'clock on Sunday morn-
ing the prisoner called her up, and she left the house with her
to procprP §9l'i?p brandy. When §lio i.{a* the de=

ST. LEONARD'S-ON SEA.

(From the Tunbridge Wells Visitor.)
The Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria remain in
good health. On Sunday last. their Royal Highnesses at-
tended divine service as usual in our church. The Rev. Mr.
Randolph and Dr. Shuttleworth officiated. Their Royal
Highness's departure from hence will take place on Thursday
next, early enough to enable the Royal party to reach Ken-
sington Palace before dark. On Thursday evening there
was the largest party that has yet taken place at Victoria-
house. About two hundred of the nobility and gentry were
present. On Friday evening last Mr. Russell, the comedian,
who has been sojourning here for some weeks past, had the
honour of being engaged by the Duchess of Kent, and amused
a select party with his clever entertainment called the
Stranded Actor. The evening concluded with quadrilles and
country dances, in which the Princess joined. The spring
tides last Friday, with the aid of a violent south-westerly
gale, did considerable damage to several cottages on the dere-
lict land at Hastings, called the Rope-walk. Nine are en-
tirely destroyed, and the foundations of three others nearly
washed away. The Commissioners of Woods had already
given notice to the inhabitants to quit before next Michaelmas,
and in that case they were to be allowed to remove the ma-
terials of their houses.

HAMBURG, Nov. 26, 1834
"FINE BROTHERS, Contractors for the
GREAT LOTTERY, published and drawn by authority
and tinder guarantee of the Hamburg Government, beg to inform the
public, that the 65th Lottery of 10,00 A Tickets will bo drawn on
the 18th of March next ; and Tickets are now selling at 108 marks
banco, or 8/. The prizes are lof 100,000, lof 50,000, lof 30,000,
1 of 20,000, 1 of 10,000, 2 of 5,000, 4 of 3,000, 7 of 2,000, 20 of
1,000, 40 of 500, and 1,500 of 108 marks, which 1,578 money
prizes are altogether stated in marks banco, and payable without any
deduction whatever ; 4,000 tickets being delivered gratis to the holders
of the 2,000 first-drawn tickets, as per scheme, those purchasing
one ticket, at the trifling cost 611 81., may obtain three prizes, and
thus, if fortune proves favourable, gain 180,000 marks banco, at
the present exchange, equal to 13,0001. sterling. Owing to the
gratis-tickets, the number of tickets on sale is a very limited one,
so that, of eourse, they will be cleared off very rapidly, and a
rise in price occur very soon. Those desirous to purchase at the
present first price of 81., are requested to direct, by one of the
first mails, but only for whole tickets, to the above-named Con-
tractors, Heine Brothers, in Hamburg. Those remitting a 101.
note will receive an order for the balance of 21., together with
the ticket, by return of mail ; on the other hand, those preferring
to pay Heine Brothers' draft for the cost, are recommended to pay
such draft immediately when presented. A full scheme, and every
desirable information, being always sent with the tickets, those
giving orders will only have to write a line, ordering the ticket or
tickets, adding the money, or an order for the mite, or stating the
mode of payment that may be more convenient to the orderer, and
giving their full and plain directions, to secure the safe receipt of
the communications. Those honouring Heine Brothers by pur-
chasing, may depend on the strictest secrecy, as to their taking a
chas.ce or getting a prize ; such being the undeviating rule of the
old-established and most lucky Office.

ORNITHOLOGY. A fine specimen of that rare

(Ampelis Garrulusi Linnaus), was shot last week at Ratford
Mill, Alcester. According to Bewick, this singularly-marked
bird visits Britain " only at uncertain intervals. "—A thrush,
having a white head, was shot in Nottingham meadows last
week.— clteltonham Journal.

The decoration of a new votive chapel in the
church of St. Roch, at Paris, hag just been completed, which
has been ornamented by the talents of several of the first

KING'S BENCH-(THIS DAY.)

SWEARING-IN OF THE PREMIER.
Shortly after the sitting of the Court this morning, Sir
Robert Peel, accompanied by two or three friends, came upon
the Bench, and was sworn-in as Chancellor of the Exchequer
and First Commissioner of the Treasury. His appearance
created a great sensation in the Court. Their Lordships, the
gentlemen of the Bar, and all the spectators present, rose,
and remained standing while the oo.th was being administered•
The Right Hon. Gentleman, who appeared in excellent
spirits, acknowledged the compliment, by bowing repeatedly
to the Court.

PRUDHOMME V. FRAZER—JUDGMENT.
Lord DENMAN said, in this case a rule had been in:r.-3d for,.
by Mr. Earle for a new trial, for leave to have the costs 01
certain parts of the declaration, which the Jury had found for
the defendant, paid to the defendant. It appeared to the
Court that no ground for a new trial had been laid before it ;
but with respect to those parts of the declaration which the
Jury found did not apply to the plaintiff, the Court was of
opinion that the defendant was entitled to the costs of those
portions. There was no occasion for a rule, as the ease had
not yet been before the Master.

QUEEN'S THEATRE.

The same success which has hitherto signalised petticoat
government in theatrical affairs, promises to attend the lessee
ship of Mrs. Nisbett. Whether this is to be attributed to
better management, or to luckier fate, we leave others to de-
termine : that such appears to be the fact, it is only necessary
to recur to the happy dynasties of her sister potentates, Ma-
dame Vesteis and Mrs. Waylett. The adverse fortunes which
have marked Airs. Nisbett's career in life, powerfully engage
the sympathies of her friends and admirers: few persons pos.
sessed of youth, loveliness, and talent, have had to contend
against a series of more severe crosses. With a spotless re-
putation in domestic life, super-added to many and various ac-
complishments as a performer, she has just claims upon public
patronage. If heretofore she has been unable to commute,
prosperity, she has at least done much to deserve it ; and we
trust the dawn of a kindlier destiny has at length broken upon
that deserving actress. Under male management the Queen's

Theatre previously produced sad disastrous results, and it
evinced no little temerity on the part of the present fair ma-
nageress to dip her bait for good fortune in a spot where other
adventurers have foundered. The Theatre has been re-deco-
rated in a very tasteful, neat, and elegant style, which com-
ports well with the fashionable appearance of the visitors, by
whom we are pleased to see it is nightly crowded. The pieces
performed (with the exception of that paw-paw piece of senti-
mentality, Clari) are in the nature of those gay vaudevilles
which please by their lightness, brevity, and point. The per-
formers selected—exclusive of Mrs. Nisbett and her sister, Miss
Mordaunt, Mr. Elton, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, and Miss Vin-
cent, who are already of established reputation in their profes-
sion—do full justice to the duties assigned to them. The new
burletta, just produced, of The Moon's Age—founded on the
stock story of an old dotard guardian enamoured of his ward
(an heiress, of course), being tricked out of his written con-
currence to her union with a more favoured lover—is made the
vehicle for introducing several novel and ludicrous incidents,
which deservedly gave high satisfaction to a thoroughly
crammed house. The announcement of other novelties speedily
to follow, are an earnest of the spirit in which Mrs. Nisbett
proposes to conduct her new undertaking ; and if she proceeds
as she has begun, offering sterling amusement in exchange for
extensive patronage, little fear need be felt for the result being
other than ultimately prosperous.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

The opera of La &mambala was produced at this theatre
last night, when Miss E. Rome, appeared for the first time in
the part of the heroine Amina. After the performance of
Madame Malibran, the task was an arduous one; but it must
be added that it was executed with great skill, and with a suc-
cess which fully justified the enthusiastic applause that was be-
stowed upon the actress. Miss E. Romer has of late been ra-
pidly gaining upon the public estimation. Her acting in Fra
Diavolo, and more recently in Cinderella, have given proofs of
considerable pains and talent. A more successful first appear-
ance we have seldom seen. The opera in other respects was
well played. Mr. Mempleton as Alessio, and Mr. Seguin as
Count Rodoipho, acquitted themselves creditably. At the
close of the performance the applause was general and conti-
nuous. Miss Romer was loudly called for, and made her ap-
pearance, supported by Mr. Templeton. If we may judge
from the manner in which the whole performance was re-
ceived, and the delight and interest which it excited, we
should be justified in saying the production of this opera is one
of the most successful hits of the season.

WATE V. DASHWOOD.

Mr. JEREMY moved for a rule to show cause why the de-
fendant should not deliver to plaintiff's agent a bill of par-
ticulars, setting forth what special articles in the possession
of the Duke of Marlborough were not protected by certain
deeds. The plaintiff had brought an action against a late
Sheriff for having made a return of nulla bona to a writ for
9,6001. against the Duke of Marlborough. The property
in possession of the Noble Duke was claimed by trustees,
and by a creditor named Latimer. The plaintiff then de-
sired to know what goods were not so protected, but not
obtaining a satisfactory answer, was compelled to make this
application to the Court.
The COURT refused to grant the rule.
London, England, 1835-01-28

JONES V. BRAMWELL.

Mr. WATsoN moved for a rule to show cause why all
further proceedings in this action should not be stopped on
the following grounds :—The defendant, who was living in
some place in Staffordshire, carried on the business oa-
surgeon and apothecary, but from some error on his part
he had not been duly licensed as an apothecary by the Apo-
thecaries' Company. Some time since the defendant re-
ceived into his business a young gentleman of the name of
Meek, as an apprentice. The indenture was executed by
Mrs. Meek, in consequence of her husband at the time
being unfortunately an inmate of a lunatic asylum, and also
by the infant and Mr. Jones, who appeared on the occasion
as a trustee. From the affidavits in his possession, it ap-
peared that Mr. Bramwell had married a young lady of the
name of Mcek, and consequently some family connection
existed between the defendant and his apprentice. This
marriage had led to a violent quarrel between the plaintiff
and defendant, who then brought an action against his
client for practising without a license. From the affidavits
of Mr. Meek, who had recovered from the illness under
which he was labouring, Mrs. Meek, and the infant, they
declare they had not given the slightest authority to Mr.
Jones to bring the action, and that he had no interest in the
infant's property.
Lord ABINGER—You may take a rule to show cause.
Mr. WATSON—The defendant has no objection to pay
the costs of the rule.

BAIL COURT.

Mr. Justice PATTISON sat in this Court for the purpose
of hearing motions.

THE KING V. GILLETT.

Mr. SMIRKE applied to the Court for a rule calling upon
Mr. Adolphus Warren, an attorney of the Court, to answer
the matters contained in certain affidavits, and in default to
show cause why he should not be struck off the rolls. The
Learned Counsel made the application on the part of the
defendant, who was proprietor of the Royal Cornwall Ga-
zette, Falmouth Packet, and Plymouth Journal, against
whom several actions had been brought in the name of
William Sydney Smith, a clerk to Mr. Warren, by the
latter to recover penalties to the amount of upwards of
20,0001. for printing and publishing that journal without
the real name and address of the publisher thereto. The
penalties sought to be recovered for printing the said news-
paper were 10,4001., and for publishing it 10,500/. ; there
were counts also for not publishing the paper at the place
named in the usual affidavit filed at the Stamp Office. The
ground of the present application was that Mr. Warren (as
stated in the affidavits) had, since the commencement of the
said actions, written to the defendant, asking if he would
compound the same. That he had brought similar actions
against the proprietors of ten other newspapers, by which
penalties were sought to be recovered to the amount of
32,000/., all in the name of William Sydney Smith, his
clerk, and in each case the defendants have been written to
by him to know if they were willing to compound them ;
from which it was evident that Warren brought the actions
in order to put money into his own pocket. The Stamp..
office authorities, when applied to upon the subject, said
they had no complaint to make against the defendant, and
that they did not sanction the proceediop against him, the
fact being that the paper had been published, for the sake
of convenience, two doors only from the place described in
the paper. He (Mr. Smirke) submitted that the Court
would not suffer an attorney to bring actions, the evident
object of which was to gratify private feelings, pp to put
money into his own pocket.
Mr. Justice PATTISON—This case is one of very consi-
derable importance. I will take time to look into the au-
thorities upon the subject. Although I think the proceed.
ings very vexatious, I doubt whether I have the power to
grant your application. I will, however, give my decision,
if possible, to-morrow.
