FARRINGDON 'WITHIN.

The wardmote for this parish was held in the hall of
Christ's Hospital. Mr. Alderman Kelly presided.
The Lord Mayor's precept having been read,
Mr. STEEL, in a long speech, made his annual charges
against the Corporation of the City; which, having Leen
replied to at an equal length by other gentlemen, the con-
versation ended, and the real business of the day was pro-
ceeded with. W. 11. Ashurst, Valentine Rutter, Henry Blake,
Henry Pritchard, Samuel Ridley, Thomas Bonsor, George
Virtue, Edward Edgington, John Wilton, R. Westwood,
Thos. Jefferson Holt, James Harvey, and David James
M'Lachlain, Esq., the former members, were again re-elected
with but a shadow of opposition from Mr.ißussell,
who declaimed against these gentlemen, who were in
favour of an abolition of duties on all imports, and from Mr.
Steel, who requested to know to whom the presentation of a
hov to Christ's wspital, which wa, in the gift of Mr.
11;!ton, had beim made. The answer was most satisfactory,
Mr. Hilton having placed the gift in the hands of the
Common ;Council, thus avowing all imputation of unhappily
using his patronage.
The Ward Inquest was then elected, and the Wardmote,
after thanks had been given to the Chairman, and returned,
broke up.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, Dee. 20.
The Lord Chancellor sat for the first time to• day since his
attack of illn6s, in Lincoln's lan Hall. The Gauge of his
Lordship's sitting was to enable him to give judgment in
several cases that had been heard before him on appeal pre-
vious to his resigning the Great Seal. Long before the hour
appointed for his Lordship to take his seat, one ?'cleck,
crowds of persons had assembled in the old hall of Lincoln's
Inn, and upon his Lordship taking his seat, the inner and
outer bar were crowded to excess.
His LORDSHIP, who appeared considerably improved in
health, and to have regained his usual cheerfulness, upon
taking his seat, stated that a short time since he had given
several of his judgments to the registrar in writing ; but that,
in order that those judgments might be delivered in the pre-
sence of counsel, in case any questions should arise, he would
give them over again.
Just previous to his Lordship's commencing to give his
judgments, a Treasury messenger brought an official box,
which was handed to his Lordship, containing a letter, which
he read. It was rumoured that the letter conveyed informa-
tion to his Lordship that Sir Robert Peel had been again sent
for by her Majesty. After perusing the letter, his Lordship
directed the registrar to call the judgments in the order in
which they stood on the paper:—

MATTHEWS V. BRISE.

The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in this case,
the question on which was whether the defendant,
who was the executor and trustee of a fund for
the plaintiff, was bound to make good a sum of 4,0001. in,
Exchequer-bills, the amount of which was lost by the bank-
ruptcy of his brokers and bankers, Messrs. Wakefield.
His Lordship was clearly of opinion that the defend.
ant was liable to make good the amount, and
ordered the judgment of the Court below, to the same
effect, to be affirmed. His Lordship, in consequence of an ap-
plication to that effect of the counsel for the defendant,
stated that he would look into the papers between this and
Monday, in order to see whether he was entitled to an in-
quiry before the Master as to whether the widow of the
plaintiff had assented to the disposition of the money.

THE TWOPEN -AY TOLL ON ENTERING THE CITY.

Mr.IIAuToN saIA that the twopenny tolls on carts entering
the City shouV., be at least done away with.
A PmusT;toNEß said that he was aware that one trades-
man in t/..,e West-end paid not less than 16s. per week in this
matter,_.( Laughter.)
MI% R. L. JONES informed the wardmote that the tolls had
been. expended on the improvements of Farringdon-street.
rne tolls realised some three or four thousand pounds, and he,
thought that when this object was attained, the tolls would
perhaps be abolished, if they were not appropriated in some
other manner. . .

Mr. KING thought that a rate might be put on gas and
water companies in Cripplegate. as in other wards.
Mr, BARTON—And they would levy a larger rate upon you
and I.—(Laughter.)
The inquest jury was then proposed and elected.
After the passing of some other business of an unimportant
character, thanks were voted to the late members of the
Common Council, and to the Alderman for the ward, which,
having been respo,.ded to by Mr. Deputy Dickson and
Chairman, the wardmote broke up.

LATEST NEWS.

SUN-OFFICE, Quarter past Three.

(PROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Lord ABERDEEN and Sir J. GRAHAM visited Sir
R. PEEL this morning, at his residence in Whitehall-

gardens.

The Duke of BUCCLEUCTI will leave town for Scot-
land as soon as the new Ministerial arrangements are
completed.

It is rumoured this morning that overtures have
been made to Mr. GLADSTONE tc join Sir R. PEEL'S
new Administration, but nothing positive is known
on the subject.

In the Court of Chancery this day Lord Lynd-
hurst announced that he would deliver other impor-
tant judgments on the first day of next Term, from
which we infer that his Lordship reckons with cer-
tainty that Sir Robert Peel will be able to reconstruct
his Cabinet.

®PROVISION roa CHUISIMAS.—Mr. Robert Fuller,
poulterer, of Boston, hag killed during the present week, for
the London Christmas market, 2,400 geese. 1,000 ducks, and

hill. Mr. John Wade, of Deptford, in the chair.
Mr. R. R. R. Moomt addressed the audience at consider-
able length, and concluded by saying, he hoped they were in
perfect readiness for the coming election, and that they would
take care to return two free-traders for that important
borough (Greenwich.)—(Cries of " We are all prepared—our
canvassing books are•all ready—we will give you two free-
traders.") The Hon. Gentleman retired amidst repeated and
tremendous applause.
The Lecture-hall was literally crammed : there were 1,600
to 2,000 persons present, and numbers without who could
not get within the building; torch a meeting has not been
witnessed, since the hall has been erected, in the town of
Greenwich.

THE WEST INDIA MAIL.

SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY, ELEVEN o'cLocg.—The
Forth, Royal Mail steam-ship, Captain Chapman, arrived
this morning at half-past nine o'clock, with the usual
fortnightly mails. This not being a gulf steamer, of
course she brings no news from Mex►co. The Furth
brings dates down to the following periods
Jamaica, Nor. 23; 'Deinerara, Nov.' 19; • Trinidad,
Nov. 20; Barbadoes, Nov. 24; Grenada, Nov, 25; Sr.
Thomas, Nov 30; and Fayal, Dec. 13.
She brings in freight, 240 ounces of silver, 419 bales
of sarsaparilla, and sundry shipments of coffee, nut-
• megs, succades, bees' wax, tortoiseshell, &c., &c.
The -Forth also brings home a great number of emi-
grants from the American emigrant ship Robert Isaac,
bound from Liverpool to New York, which the authori-
ties of Fayal corid.nnned as being unseaworthy.
John Burns, second mate, and Charles Clarke, seaman,
were also brought home prisoners, on a charge of mu-
tiny on board the Harriet, of London.. They will be
handed over to the authorities here. They were taken
on hoard at Fayal.
The whole of the emigrants are in excellent health,
although, as a matter of course, they.have undergone
inconvenience and privations previous to having been
shipped on board the Forth.
The Forth brings home but a few passengers.
The Jamaica papers (the only file which has yet come
to hand) are barren of intelligence Tile railway to
Spani h Town was opened on the 21st.'
The rain had set in, and the forthcoming crops pro-
mise well.

The Forth has had a good passage. and had it nol
been for detention at Fayal to take in the emigrant►,
would gave arrived last evening.

, here and there some good
easy sou, had been trepanned by his squire into an agricul-
tural dinner, and perhaps into a minute and a half of protec-
tionist talk. That the fact, however, is as we state it, we
may appeal to a very unexcepti,nable authority. There are,
unfortunately, among the chief agitators against the corn-
laws one or two who would only be too happy to spy out
a stray parson in the ranks of the enemy. Have they done
so ? Can they mention one clerical pamphleteer, one speech-
maker, one agitator ? They cannot. Now this is a signifi-
cant circumstance, and worthy the attention of those who a
few years back had great hopes of uniting the titheowner
and the landowner into one " Church and horned cattle
interest." Protection cannot boast either clerical sympathies,
or clerical intellect. We are not disposed to overrate the sa-
gacity and information of clergymen, but we must say that
it augurs ill of a cause that it cannot allege the support of
one clerical writer out of fifteen thousand educated and, as it
is commonly thought, interested men.— Times.

MARKET NE WS --(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat for our market
have been moderate, viz., 5,560 quarters, chiefly from Essex
and Kent. Fresh up they were very small; however, the
show of samples of both red and white was limited. The
accounts from the North coming very unfavourable for the
harvest, the demand for Wheat of home produce was some-
what active, at an advance in the prices obtained on Monday of
from is to 2s perqr. andat which a good clearance waseffected.
Free foreign Wheat was in good request at is to 2s per
quarter more money; while bonded was held at a similar im-
provement. No new Barley at market. The inquiry was
steady, at full prices. 111-alt was held at more money;
but the business doing trifling. Oats and Beaus were
quite as dear; but grey and maple Peas were lower.
