ANTWERP SIFT. 13.—The Prince Royal of Prus-
sia, after a short interview with King Leopold, left
Ostend, per special train, and reached Antwerp at eight
P.M. in the same evening. His Royal Highness descended
at the Hotel St. Antoine, where his equipages and suite
had been two days awaiting his arrival ; after remaining
at Mr. Schmitt Spaenhoven's splended establishment
until the following day, the Prince pursued his journey
to the Hague, in order to have an interview with the
King of Holland. The visit of the Prince of Prussia to
this port since its accession to the German Cus-
toms Union is an event of more than ordinary
interest. Already have the effects of the union
become visible in the increased activity at the
docks and in the entrepot. The number and import-
ance of the visitors to Antwerp have also materially in-
creased of late. The following are amongst the most
recent arrivals at the Hotel St. Antoine :—The Earl and
Countess of Balcarras and suite ; the Bishop of Roches-
ter and family ; the Duchess of Oldeaburgh and suite ;
the Marechale Princesse of Ekhrauhl (Davoust) and her
daughter ; the Countess Blocqueville, Captain Lord
John Hay, Captain Carrington Smith, Colonel Cath-
cart, Captain C. J. Adams, R.N., Sir Clifford Constable,
Bart., &c., &c.
VACANT ALDERMANIC GOWN OF BILLINGSGATE.—
There exists a rumour that another candidate for this
vacancy, besides Mr. Sidney, the sheriff elect, is likely
to make his appearance at the hustings. There is, how-
ever, little or no chance, although there may be
much expense, for any other competitor, as Mr. Sidney
has obtained more than four. fifths of the promises of the
constituents of the ward, and it is formed principally of
men of repute, not likely to swerve from their word, or
to encourage a vexatious opposition.
Nearly 1,0001. have already been subscribed towards
the cost of erecting a suitable monument to the memory
of the late lamented Earl of Lonsdale.

The Earl of Harborough, at his recent audit at
Melton Mowbray, caused the rents of the whole of his
cottage tenants, on his estates at Whissendine, Staple-
ford, Saxby, and Teigh, to be returned to them. We
rarely have to record such a noble instance of liberality.
The Countess of Haddington has arrived at Tyn-
Jushanie House, Prebtonkirk, N. 8., from the Admiralty.

stated that on the 10th of August he received a
clock between three and four o'clock in the after-
noon, but it was not pledged by the prisoner.—(The
clock was here produced and identified.)
Robert Winson, of East-tstreet, Kennington, said
that on Friday fortnight he received the clock from
a person of the name of Gould. The defendant was
not present. Witness did not know that Gold was
in partnership with the defendant. He had known
Gould twelve months.
Mr. Woolf stated that the two names of Gould and
Goulding were used according to the necessity of the
case, and that creditors never could find either, for
the moment one was asked
,for the other appeared,
and vice versa.

John Appleton, of 119, Leadenhall-street, publi-
can, stated, that he had purchased the duplicate of
the clock of Winson, for 1/. lOs., and he had taken
it out of pawn for 11.
Mrs. Ann Harris was then called by the prisoner,
who said that she was the lady from whom he had
got the order for the clock, and she was examined
at great length, by the Lord Mayor, who elicited
from her the fact that the prisoner was her brother-
in-law. She repeatedly contradicted herself and at
length refused to answer any more questions.
Mr. O'Brien cross-examined the prosecutor in a
very ingenious manner, and proved that the poor man
had, in his anxiety to get his property, or part of the
value of it, so acted as to convert what was a dead
robbery into an apparent debt.
The Lord Mayor and Alderman Wood very
scrupiously examined the evidence, in the hope of
being able to establish a case against the defendant.
His LORDSHIP--I regret very much that we are
obliged to discharge this prisoner ; we cannot help it.
You have been plundered, but you have, by the course
you have pursued, been completely out- generalled
by the defendant. We are sorry for you, and we
hope the press will do justice to the defendant, who
has acted in the most infamous manner.

Here several persons came forward, and stated that
the defendant had obtained goods fraudulently from
them.

The prisoner—Nonsense; the money has been lying
at my house for you all these three or four days.
There were several fellows, no doubt of the de-
fendant's stamp, in the Court, who was evidently de•
lighted at the decision of the magistrates. The de
fendant put on his hat and strutted out of the bar.

The Patrie, a journal generally well informed of what
passes in the interior of the Chamber of Deputies, says that
the commission on the budget will not submit any plan for
the reduction of the Five per Cents., but their report will
contain an admission that the conversion is a wise and legal
measure which the Government ought to make preparations
for effecting at a future period.
The Augsburph Gazette states, from Constantinople, 21st

WELSH MELODIES.

Mr. Kibbey delivered the second of his course of
lectures on the above subject at the Music Hall,
Store-street, on Friday evening last, on which occa-
sion he was assisted by Misses Cubitt, Thornton, and
Porter ; Messrs. Lesson, Ellis Robert, Welsh harper,
and Talhaiarn, the penillion singer. Mr. Kibbey appears
to be deeply versed in Druidic lore, and as familiar with
the writings, history, and character of Taliesin, as
Mr. Wilson is with those of his favourite, Burns.
The Welsh melodies generally are of a-melancholy
cast, and the mode adopted by Mr. Kibbey to intro-
duce the-different airs tends to depress the spirits of
his audience, which are enlivened only by the very
superior performance of Mr. Roberts on the triVe
harp, #nd the _peuillion singing of Talhairttri. ' The
•
perfoymanees of the.two latter were most rapturously.
4pplauded and unanimously encored. National Music
being the fashion of the day, we entertain very little
doubt that the beautiful melodies of Cambria will soon
become very popular favourites. To give them a
fair chance, however, such as Glyndwr's war-song
and theprophecy of the inspired bard, they should be
entrusted to a male singer, and we would re-
commend Mr. Kibbey to be rather less senti-
mental, and to introduce some lively anecdotes, of
which there 'is no dearth in the principality.

FARM LABOURERS.

We have been requested to insert the following letter
from Mr. Paget to Mr. Cobden, in explanation of a com-
munication which was quoted by the latter gentleman in
the course of the debate of Tuesday last : •
Ruddington Grange, March 14, 1844.

My dear Sir,—lt is a great satisfaction to me to find
the statement I sent to you so fully confirmed by Lord.
Worsley. He takes a farm which is entirely arable,
while the one whose expenses I stated is 230 arable,
170 pasture, which is a fair proportion for the Midland
Counties. His rent is divided between the landlord and the
clergyman, mine is paid entirely to one landlord. He takes
a farm which requires an outlay for manure equal to
half the rent, I one which will maintain its fertility at
an expenditure of one-twelfth the rent in artificial
manure ; and if you refer tg_the explanation appended
to my statement, you will see that I consider it applicable
to the heavy and mixed lands, and that for the poorer
light lands a rectification was required for the quantity
of manure purchased.
Now let us take Lord Worsley's statement ; he takes

His horses keep ought to be treated like his seed
corn ; it is not an outgoing from the farm, but an ab-
straction from the diposable produce.
His other expenses are—

go that, had his land been of such a quality that it
would have required only 1401. instead of 300 L to main-
tain its fertility, he would, of course, have paid 3601.
more rent. The result then would have been—

Rent *
Other expenses

.£1,490

Had one-third of the land been old turf, the expenses
would have been reduced 2001., so that Lord Worsley
more than confirms my statement.
I see the Lothian farmers estimate the landlord's share
at one-half, while I only state it at 255. out of 555. for
England.
I believe the opposition you meet with is from an
honest conviction that a change would be injurious to
the tenant and labourer ; lam therefore very sorry that
your Committee has been refused.
I am, my dear Sir, very truly yours,
CHARLES PAGET.
Richard Cobden, Esq., M.P.
London, England, 1844-03-18

WORSHIP-STREET.

Charles Clare, alias Samuel Swinbuyn, a deserter from
the 12th Regiment of Lancers, and who has seduced and
deserted a great number of females, was brought up for
final examination upon .a charge of robbing one of his
victims, named Ann Keeley.
The prisoner, who 40,said, to be of good family, had
deserted no less than four times from the Lancer Regi-
ment; the last time from Dundalk in February, 1843,
having been previously, branded with the letter D burnt
into both of his sides. A communication was now re-
ceived from the War-office, desiring that in the event of
his acquittal of the chaige of felony, he should be given
up to the military as a deserter.
The particulars of his; heartless doings have been given
in the reports of formiir examinations, rendering unna-
cessary any but a briefenumeration of the offences he is
charged with.
With Ann Keeley, the prosecutrix, he first became
acquainted six -years since at Hounslow, where she was
in the service of Captain Travers, and shortly before last
Christmas he met with her again at Brighton, and after-
wards induced her, under a promise of marriage, to leave
her service there and come to him in London. She had
then several boxes filled with the best of apparel, &c.,
and having occasion to visit her relatives in the country,
left the prisoner in Awe of her property. He had,
sometime before that, seduced a girl named Elizabeth
Woodcock from her friends at Birmingham, and after-
wards abandoned her for somebody else, but having since
found her again at a f lodging in Playhouse-yard, and
telling her that he Wouldmake a lady of her, he took to her
Ann Keeley's boxes of apparel, but made her and others
pawn most of the things. One day, however, when
Woodcock was unwell, he absconded with her fellow-
lodger, a 'younger girl, named Styles, with whom he
was living at Horselydown when apprehended. The
Magistrate has received also several communications,
from which it appeared that the prisoner's heartlessness
had caused the death of at least one female.
He was now committed to Newgate for trial.

Mrs. Charlotte Sinclair, a handsomely dressed and
more than middle-aged woman, of independent property,
was placed at the bar for final examination upon a
charge of stealing a pair of black kid gloves from the shop
of Mr. Clark, in Whitecross-street.

Mr. Wakelin attended as soliciter for the prosecution,
and Mr. Heritage for ;the prisoner, who had hitherto
been detained in close custody, but the evidence being
now completed,
Mr. BROUGHTON consented to take good bail for her
appearance to take her trial at the Criminal Court.

TALZOVT.

This market continues very as to prices on the spot
and for the Autumn. It is very difficult to find really fine
T.C. at the quotation of 41s 3d, and for the-last three months
of the year at 41s 9d. The demand from the trade in London
is certainly very limited, and the continued-falling off in the:
delivery leads us to think that the deniandyrom the country
is anything but good. Town Tallow is 41s to 41s-fid nett casfi.

NEW LS VENTION.—Mr. Pauling, of Manchester,
well known as an extensive and successful contractor' for
railway works, is erecting machinery,-on ift very extensive
scale,- for the purpose of executing allimstivery description
of joiner's work ; the special object being to effect the most
difficult parts, such' as morticing. and the- making of sash
frames, &c. Report says that this . enterprising gentleman
has succeeded, and that the work thus finished is incom-
parable ; in other terms, that it is nor.possible formcre han-
dicraft labour to vie with the work finished-by the inVention.
The works are on a very extensive scale, and, _if fully em-
ployed, will, of necessity= revolutionise this bpanch

FARM LABOURERS.

We hive been requested to insert the following letter
from Mr. Paget to Mr. Cobden, in explanation of a com-
munication which was quoted by the latter gentleman in
the course of the debate of Tuesday last :
Ruddington Grange, March 14, 1844.
My dear Sir,—lt is a great satisfaction to me to find
the statement I sent to you so fully confirmed by Lord
Worsley. He takes a farm which is entirely arable,
while the one whose expenses I stated is 230 arable,
170 pasture, which is a fair proportion for the Midland
Counties. His rent is divided between the landlord and the
clergyman, mine is paid entirely to one landlord. He takes
a farm which requires an outlay for manure equal to
half the rent, I one which will maintain its fertility at
an expenditure of one-twelfth the rent in artificial
manure ; and if you refer to the explanation appended
to my statement, you will see that I consider it applicable
to the heavy and mixed lands, and that for the poorer
light lands a rectification was required for the quantity
of manure purchased.
Now let us take Lord Worsley's statement ; he takes
Landlord's rent 4800 I
.£lOOO
Tithe rent...
Add excess of manure

360

£1,360
His horses keep ought to be treated like his seed
corn ; it is not an outgoing from the farm, but an ab-
straction from the diposable produce.
His other expenses are—
Farm labour £Boo
Mechanics or Tradesmen's bills
Parochial rates
Interest of capital 2OO

£1,350
So that, had his land been of such a quality that it
would have required only 1401. instead of 500/. to main-
tain its fertility, he would, of course, have paid 360/.
more rent. The result then would have been—
Ren t
Other expenses
Manure l4O

Had one-third of the land been old turf, the expenses
would have been reduced 200/., so that Lord Worsley
more than confirms my statement.
I see the Lothian farmers estimate the landlord's share
at one-half, while I only state it at 255. out of 555. for
England.
I believe the opposition you meet with is from an
honest conviction that a change would be injurious to
the tenant and labourer ; lam therefore very sorry that
your Committee has been refused.
I am, my dear Sir, very truly yours,
CHARLES PAGET.

PLATE.

C. WATSON", 41 and 42, BARBICAN, and 16, NORTON-FOL-
GATE, aided by a person of science in the amalgamation of metals,
has succeeded in bringing to public notice the most beautiful article
ever yet offered; possessing all the richness of Silver in appearance
—with all its durability and hardness—with its perfect sweetness in
use—undergoing, as it does, a chemical process, by which all that is
nauseous in mixed metals is entirely extracted--resisting all acids—
may be cleaned as silver, and is manufactured into every article for
the Table and Sideboard.

C. Watson begs the Public will undatand that this metal is pecu-

his metal is from all others ; on its intrinsic merit alone he wishes it
to be tested, and from the daily increasing eulogiums he receives, he
Is convinced that notbing.ean prevent its becoming an article of uni-
versal wear.
