against the 1,14.1111 uf tin; cons!-,
rescue of the Leman, Captain Petty, from Archangel
for London, from off the Newcombe S sods, and as-
saulting the cre cf the Lowestoft steamer which
had put off to her assistance, the Assembly-room of
the Qaeen's 'lead, where the magistrates pursued the
investigation, was densely crowded by merchants,
mariners, and others of this port. The foil -wing are
the main facts of the case. Eighteen defendants
were charged :
On the morning of the 18th of October, the Leman
struck on the-Newcombe Sand, and three men came
off from the beach and tendered their services in
getting the vessel off. The Lowestoft steatn-tug then
came off, and eventually she was engaged by the
master, Mr. Petty, to assist in getting the brig off
for fifty pounds. By this period other ats had come
eff, and their services being pcsitively refused, they
became indignant at the course punned by the harbour
authorities in sending out the tug. The &I ndants,
it would appear, waited upon the deputy harbour
master, andliesired the tug to be withdrawn. Such
being refused, however, murderous threats were held
out to the captain. They said that they (the tug)
were taking the bread out of their mouth, that some-
body had better be sent out to read the Riot Act,
for that they (the wreckers) intended to muster.
Other boats (in all six) came near the brig, and on
the tug endeavouring to tow the brig off, they un-
hooked the towing hawsers by their boat hooks, and
after resorting to every stratagem, they commence
pelting the captain, Mr. Cooper, and others of the
crew of the tug with stones. They succeeded in
thwarting the exertions of those in the tug. The
master was hit on the side with a stone, which rendered
him insensible; he was taken ashore apparently fur
dead, and now continues ill. The deck of the steamer
was strewed with stones, which the men had brought
off purposely for the attack, and it being seen that they
were determined, if possible, to keep her away, she
returned to the harbour, leaving the brig on the
sands. The fellows again pressed their servicv, but
were as positively declined, when the Coast-guard
officers arrived, and order being somewhat restored,
another tug, the Pursuit, came off and got the vessel
off into the roadstead.
The Chairman (the Rsv. Mr. Love), after consult-
ing with the bench, expressed his regret at the occur-
rence. Had the injuries to the captain rf the steamer
terminated fatally, they might have all been placed in
a very serious position. The Bench were inclined to
believe that they might have been acting under an
erroneous impression, and on consideration of that
circumstance they reduced the penalties on each of
the defendants to 101., or two months imprisonment.
Mr. Ballantine then said that ail the company re-
quired was to show the men were acting illegally,
and as that object had been attained, he would be
content with their putting in their recognizance to
keep the peace.
The Bench acquiesced, and the defendants being
called in and pleading guilty, they were bound over
in the way recommended.

MACGREGOR V.GALWORTHY._

In this case, which was tried at the sittings for Mid-
dlesex in June last, before Lord Campbell, a verdict
passed for the plaintiff, damages 401. It was an action
brought against the High Bailiff of the Bloomsbury
County Court. The defendant had obtained a judg-
ment in that County Court against the plaintiff for 151.,
with 31. 9s. costs. Execution issued in the usual man-
ner on this judgment, and the bailiff proceeded to the
plaintiff's residence, but being denied admission, he got
in at the window by means of a chair. Hence the pre-
sent action.

Mr. WHATELY, Q.C., now moved for a rule to show
cause, first, why the verdict should not be set aside and
a new trial had; and, secondly, why the whole proceed-
ings should not be wholly set aside on the ground that
the plaintiff was a married woman at the time of the
action, which incapacitated her from bringing such an
action. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to read
certain affidavits to prove that the plaintiff was the wife
of a person named tie Hand, and had taken advantage of
her privilege as a married woman on the commence-
ment of the proceedings in the County Court.
The COURT thereupon granted a rule to show cause,
and in the meantime ordered the whole proceedings is
the Court below to be stayed, and to abide the issue of
the rule nisi.

AMERICAN NEWS.

The accounts from New Yotk this week describe
be money market as again easier, the rate upon the
nest securities being 5 per cent. The general signs
also of confidence and activity were uedirninished,
while as regards the cotton crop there were improved
prospects, owing to a continuance of propitious
weather. From California the dates are to the 15th
of September, being fourteen da3 s later, and the
further arrival at Now York and New Orleans of
gold-dust amounting altogether to about 500,000/.,
was regarded as giving the best proof of the correct-
ness of recent anticipations. The details furnished
on this occasion from the various mines are all of a
similar character to those brought by the previous
mail. New discoveries of "dry diggings" continued
to be made, and this, coupled with the introduction
of machinery in the districts of the gold-bearing
quartz, would keep the production up to a high
rate even after the setting in of the net Season.
A. run had occurred upon the banking-houses
at San Francisco, which had grown into a panic,
and has caused the stoppage of four firms, their names
being Henry M. Naglee, Simmons, Hutchinson, and
Co., Henry Howison, and Farley, Johnson, and Co.
The first of these is 'described as " one of the oldest"
of the San Francisco bankers. Other houses were
run upon—some to a considerable amount, but they
had stood their ground, and at the departure of the
steamer the rush WAS subsiding. A Mr. King, a Mr.
Plume, and Wells and Co. appear to have sustained the
grea'est demand. Mr. Plume, it is said in the Alta
California, " acted like a man and a banker. He
posted up a notice that he would keep open to accom-
modate the public until six o'clock (an hour later
than usual), and also that his bank would be open on
Sunday." From the picture given of the crowds that
besieged the various establishmknts, and which are
„id to have resembled the gatherings at the Post-
office after the arrival of a steamer, it may be consi-
dered creditable to the general management of these
[on firms that the failures were so few.

THE LATE CUTTING AND MAIMING CASE AT BATH.
--BATH, Nov. 4.—The prisoner Ogle Wallis was brought
up before the magistrates at the Guildhall, Ilath, for final
examination to-day. Mr. Coplestone, who appeared very
weak, and was accommoest ed with 'a chair while giving
his evidence, gave a detail of the facts of the case as they
have already appeared. At the conclusion of his evidence,
Mr. Hellings, his attorney, said he should not press the case
of cutting and wounding,,but go simply for the common as-
sault ; nor should he call any other evidence. The magis-
‘trates, therefore, at once adjudicated upon the case, and
fined the prisoner 51., which was paid. A suspicion that a
' compromise had been made created great dissatisfaction out
of (1990 With thin decision.

PIRACY IN THE MEDITTERANEA.N.

We read in the Genoa Gazette, under the date of
Malta, October 17, that the Ottoman Government
having announced to its consul at Malta that an
Austrian ship had been attacked and pillaged by a
Greek pirate near Tripoli, the consul immediately in-
formed the Government of Malta of the circumstance ;
in consequence of which Mr. W. Sim had directed
her Majesty's sloop Frolic to cruise between Malta
and Tripoli, for the protection of trade in that quarter.

LONDON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1850.

At length the POPE has found a suitable defender
e—a champion has entered the lists, armed cap-a-pied
and ready to combat a rouarance all who take excep-
tion to the latest and most daring act of aggression by
a foreign potentate on the independence of the Pro-
testant people of England. We had hoped that a ge-
neral feeling of indignation would have thrilled
like an electric shock throughout the length
and breadth of the land, at an act of
usurpation which would not have been at-
tempted or for a moment tolerated in any
Rernan Catholic country. We had hoped that this
laudable feeling would not have been limited to the
members of any creed or sect, to Episcopalians ;
Presbyterian!, or Dissenters, but that every English,
man, Roman Catholic as well as Protestant, would
have cordially co-operated together in repel-
ling the insult to their common country ;
that the spirit of nationality as well as
of allegiance to their beloved SOVENBIGN,
whose authority and prerogative has been slighted
and eet aside, would on this occasion, at least, have
insured unanimity; and we had slrcrig grounds for
this opinion. Perhaps never was there so singular
an instance of concurrence among the fourth eetate•

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
General CHANGARNIER has published the following
order of the day :
" According to the terms of the law, the'army does
not deliberate; in virtue of tho regulations of- the army,
it is bound to abstain from every demonstration, and
utter no cries when under arms. The General-in-Chief
reminds the troops placed under his command of these
orders. " CHANGARNIER.
" Paris, Nov. 2. General-in-Chief."
In acting thus General CHANGARNIER has thrown
down the gauntlet to the PRESIDENT. It WUS for
ordering the division under his command to abstain
from uttering cries that General NEuMATER was re-
moved, and now General CHANGARNIER, in an order
of the day, repeats the order of NEUMAYER. It is
evidently a challenge to the PRESIDENT to dismiss
CHANGARNIER himself.
The Evinement states that the PRESIDENT has re-
fused to receive both M. MOLE and M. THIERS. The
same journal states that General CHANGARNIER sur-
rounds himself in the Tuileries with a faithful body-
guard, as he is apprehensive of a coup de main.

Penny's ships. As we lay hero the beauty or the
heavens, the stillness of the air, and the magnificence of
the scene Mil- all description. The immense fields of
ice broken up into a thousand shapes, and interspersed
here and there with stupendous icabergs, made one fancy
that an immense city had been lately overwhelmed by
some terrific convulsion of nature, for arches, columns,
spires, turrets, towering one over the other, were
jumbled together in a confusion resembling chaos.
" On the 7th (Sunday) the wind shitted and, blow
from the southward. The pack ice was observed coming
down upon us; triangles, ice-saws, and other gear were
rigged, and the ice shaped out into a dock gave a mo-
mentary refuge to our ships. We were entirely closed
in as the pack came upon us. The wind shifting again
on the morning of the 9th, we crept out about a mile to
the northward, and here we are waiting until a further
clearance.
" In the attempt of hooking on to the floe and sawing
the ice several of us were initiated into the mysteries of
an Arctic baptism, as the ice gave way; but no accidents
beyond a ducking fortunately recurred.

FINE ARTS.

THE JUDGMENT OF PARIS. Painted by
W. Etty, R. d. Engraved by C. W. Wass.
The picture from vvhicn this engraving is taken is
the first and best picture on this subject that Etty
painted. His later picture, exhibited at the Royal
Academy in 1846 or 1847, is crude and jejune in
comparison with the picture, which Mr. Wass has, in
the strictest sen'e of the term, reproduced in the very
beautiful engraving now exhibiting (with the original
picture) at Mr. Grundy's, in Regent-street. The
visitors to the exhibition of Etty's pictures last year,
at the rooms of the Society of Arts, will recollect
this as one of the gems of that collection. Mr. Wass
seems to be the only engraver who thoroughly under-
stands the handling of masses of colour, and hence he
is, par excellence, the engraver of Etty's pictures. So
delicate is his handling, that he has succeeded in
giving to every shade of colour in the original its
corresponding light or shade in the engraving, and
has thus succeeded in rendering in black and white a
perfect fac simile of the original. Nothing can be
more beautifully harmonious than this engraving.
The figures of the contending goddesses, of Paris, and
of the nymphs are all exquisitely engraved, and the
figure of Mercury is a miracle of correct and beauti-
ful drawing ; nothing can be conceived more perfect
than the foreshortening of the legs and arms in this
figure. The engraving is mixed mezzo-tint and
stipple, and is as near as may be a perfect engraving
from a perfect picture.

FRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
Price Is. I%d. per box.
This excellent Family rill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for
correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, the common
symptoms of which are costiveness, flatulency, spa,ms, loss of appe-
tite, sick headache, giddiness, sense of fulness after meals, dizziness
of the eyes, drowsiness, and pains in the stomach and bowels,:
indi-
gestion, producing a torpid state or the liver, and a consequent inac-
tivity of the bowels, causing a disorganisation of every function of
the frame, will, in this meet excellent preparation, by a little perse-
verance, be effectually removed. Two or three doses will convince
the afflicted of its salutary effects. The stomach will speedily regain
its strength ; a h,althy action of the liver, bowels, and kidneys will
rapidly take place ; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaun-
diced appearance, strength, activity, and renewe I health will be the
quick result of taking this medicine, according to the directions ac-
companying each box.
As a pleasant, safe, easy apperient, they unite the recommenda-
tion of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require
no restraint of diet or confinement during their use ; and for elderly
people they will be found to be the most comfortable medicine hi-
therto prepared.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.
By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
chord to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
z. ous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con•
t!ibution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
'Leath ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowin, two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
at forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
en ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of hie payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
ages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure
through this Society.

at Dhobah Factory, near Culnat, Calcutta, writing to his father,
James Nichol, Esq., 15, Rathbone-place, Oxford-street, states
that he sull'ered severely from a liver complaint and a dreadful
pain in his side, and that he has derived more benefit from tak.
ing Holloway's Pills for a short time than he was able to ob-
tain under the treatment of several medical men in India for
seventeen months previously; therefore, officers in the army,
and others who through living in hot climates are martyrs to
disordered stomachs, liver complaints, or indigestion, should
take these invaluable Pills, being a safe and effectual remedy
for those diseases.—Sold by all Druggists and at Professor Hol-
loway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.

A NOVEL.
" The iulthor, we are...convinced. is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and • enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. lie is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, an.l by a laudable love
of the parest sort of fame, We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage in: which he eipressei his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the 'subjects- just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters- that are the prima mobil:a of the actions which elm-
acterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marketper Be pecaliaritks, to the school of the Disc sells, Man-
stories, and Smythas."—Obscrve".
" • zinsvood' is no ordinary work it contains passages of exceed-

gaging novels which the presout season has proauced. Ot the cha-
