THE OLDEST MAN IN ENGLAND.

A correspondent from Cheltenham writes to the
Times to announce the death of the oldest man in
England. Ile died on October 12, at the age of 119
years. The register contains no entry of his bap-
tism, but this is believed to have been his age. He
was working in the dockyard at Sheerness when the
Royal George was sunk (1782). The old man saia
some time ago that he remembered, when a child
four years old, being taken by his mother to
see an illumination in honour of the coronation
of King George 111. in-1760. It is a curious fact
;hat in the very highest and very lowest grades there
are such remarkable instances of longevity. The
agricultural labourer, passing an existence in which
any mental activity is almost wanting, and the law
peer or statesman, whose whole life has been a course
of severe mental toil, live these remarkably long
lives.

FOREIGN NOTES.

AMERICA.

The contest for General Butler's seat in Massachusetts
promises to be very interesting. The Republican
"bolters "—those who are dissatisfied with the regular
party nomination—are resolved to have nothing to do with
General Butler, and have nominated Mr. R. H. Dana,
author of " Two Years Before the Mast." As the dis-
trict is one of the most intelligent in the Union, the new
candidate is said to have an excellent chance. But the
Democrats are expected to vote for Butler! They feel con-
fident that he will ruin his party by "his moral obliquity
and pent-up hatred of General Grant," and are therefore
really anxious to keep him in Congress.

Mr. John Quincy Adams, son of Mr. Reverdy John-
son's predecessor, has come forward as a Democratic can-
didate for the governorship of Massachusetts. Though
comparatively a young man, he is looked upon as one of
the most respectable rising Democrats ; and, judging by
a letter he has written to South Carolina, he deserves this
position. Though a Democrat, he apprehends that if his
party be defeated in this contest it will be because the
results of the war are thought to be in danger. No party
could maintain itself which should repudiate the war or
surrender its acquisitions. Constitutional or not, the
right to secede can be practicable only in the form
of revolution. Slavery, he says, is stone dead. The
hasty and inconsiderate legislation on the subject of
slavery in the Southern States did more than anything
else to fasten.universal suffrage upon the South. "The
Northern people, having freed the slaves and left them
still mingled with their former masters, could not with
decency or humanity abandon them naked to the savage
enmity which they were taught to believe you felt to
them, nor could they calmly look on to see those oppressed
of whose comfort and happiness they had become the
emardiar.z." _ .

PARLIAMENTARY RETURNS.—A parliamentary re-
turn, published Yesterday, shows that the number of occu-
piers in Ireland rated at £lO and under £l2 is 36,418, and
the number rated at £8 and under £lO is 49,297. From an
account of the gross public income and expenditure of the
United Kingdom for the year ending 31st March, we learn
that the total revenue was £69,600,218 4s. ld., and the
total expenditure £71,766,211 17s. 7d., leaving a deficit of
£2,166,023 13s. 6d. The charge for the Abyssinian expe-
dition is two millions sterling.

[ ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.--
Fistulas, piles, excoriations, aid strictures are speedily re-
lieved and ultimately removed by applying this Ointment,
after fomentation with warm water. Persons suffering
from these scourges of the human frame should arrest their
progress at once, for it is both insidious and rapid. Fis-
tulas, if allowed to go on unchecked, not only weaken the
nervous system, but destroy life. The sooner these ines-
timable remedies are used the more certain is success ; yet
none need despair, hopeless cases have often yielded, and
the sufferer has been saved a painful death. In excoria-
tions a few applications of this healing Ointment effect a
cure, while the pills, conjointly used, are especially bene-
ficial in relaxing and removing strictures, whatever their
situation or duration.

THE JAMAICA OUTBREAK.-THE PROSECUTION OF

EX-GOVERNOR EYRE.

It will be recollected that a few days ago a rule
nisi was granted to show cause in the matter of the
prosecution of Mr. Eyre.
Mr. Powel, Q.C., now showed cause against the
rule, and stated that the whole argument turned
upon the question as to whether in this matter the
Court of Queen's Bench was a Court of Oyer and
Terminer or not. lie did not, of course, want to
contend that the Court of Queen's Bench had not the
functions of a court of Oyer and .Tertniner, but he
arguel that those functions could only ba exercised
when they were sitting as Justices of Oyer and
Terminer. They were supreme coroners, but only
so when sitting as coroners.

Mr. Justieel3lackburn • thought that the term
Oyer and Terminer applied to them.
Mr. Powell said that by the way it was laid down
it seemed that it was not so. There- was au Act,
59 George 111., chap. 69, which enacted that a per-
son accused of any offence in England could be
brought to Middlesex, the venue being chAnged, and
brought up at the next gaol delivery of Oyer and
Terminer. He said that the statutes showed that
the terms Courts of • Oyer and Terminer applied to
' the General Court of Quarter Sessions and the
courts of the counties palatine, and not to a
supreme court like that of the Queen's Bench.
There was a case in vol. 5 " Coll's Reports," in
which a Scotch nobleman named Lord Sankeld had
employed some one to murder a man named
Turner. This nobleman was afterwards to be
tried as an accessory, and it was then ordered that
he should be tried at the next delivery in sessions of
Oyer and Terminer. One argument in favour of
the supposition that the Court of Queen's Bench
was not such a court, was that commissions for sit-
tings of Oyer and Terminer were issued, and that
they were terminable, and the period that they sat
was uncertain.

Mr. Justice Lush—We only sit in term.
Mr. Powell—But your lordships' Court is a per-
manent one, although terminable. He then quoted
several authorities, and concluded by stating that
he left the matter in their lordships' hands.
Mr. Justice Blackburn said that they need not call
upon the other side to support the rule, as they con-
sidered that the rule must be made absolute, inas-
much as that the magistrate should investigate into
the allegation, and then return the depositions to
the next general sittings of the Court of Queen's
Bench.

MARKETS.—(This Day.)

NEIVGATE AND LEADENHALL.

Meat—There wore good supplies at market this morn-
ing, and rather a slow trade in cohsequence of the warm
weal her, but salesmen were not disposed to take lower
rates. We quote—Beef, 3s 4d to 4s 4d ; mutton, 33 8d to
Is 61 ; veal, 4s to 4s 8d ; pork, 4s to 4s 85 ; lamb, 5s 8d to
is 45 per stone of 81b by the carcase.
Poultry—Prices are kept up to our Into quotations, by
short supplies, but the trade is dull.
Eggs remain at Gs. Gd. ; per 12s. for best French ; Bs.
for best English ; and 2s. Gd. per dozen for plover.

The weather continues very fine, and whilst it keeps up
the favourable prospect of the crops tends to increase the
quiet in the trade.

CORN MARKET.

The country markets for wheat aro inactive, whilst in
somo cases prices are firm.

At Mark-lane this morning the attendance was small,
and although the supplies were not heavy the tone was
dull.

The small quantity of English wheat was purchased
sparingly, at about late rates. _

()reign wheat met very little inquiry, and quotations
were nominal. Easier rates would have been requisite to
induce purchases.
Flour sold in retail at prices the turn in favour of
bu 3 ers.

Barley, beans, and peas unchanged. Oats in small sup-
ply, and firm, with a quiet sale.

COLONIAL AND FOREIGN PRODUCE.

SuGAR.--Demand is moderate, and prices are supported,
supplies on offer being moderate. Refined sugars not
active, but well maintained.
COFFEE. • - There is scarcely any change to notice. Sup-
plies continue liberal, and the proportion of good and find
colours qualities of colonial still meet a good competition ;
whilst pale and indifferent descriptions sell slowly at prices
favouring buyers.

account of the gross public income and expenditure of the

I ADVERTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Fistulas, piles, excoriations, and strictures aro speedily re-
lieved and ultimately removed by applying this Ointment,
after fomentation with warm water. Persons suffering
from these scourges of the human frame should arrest their
progress at once, for it is both insidious and rapid. Fis-
tulas, if allowed to go on unchecked, not only weaken the
nervous 6ystein, but destroy life. The sooner thesJ ines-
timable remedies are used the more certain is success ; yet
none need despair, hopeless cases have often yielded, and
the sufferer has been saved a painful death. In excoria-
tions a few applications of this healing Ointment effect a
cure, while the pills, conjointly used, arc especially bene-
ficial in relaxing and removing strictures, whatever their
situation or duration.
