There was a very full attendance of Counsel, and
the galleries were crowded with fashionable looking
women.
The report of the state of the convicts in the Pe-
nitentiary of Millbank, was read by the officer.
The Attorney-General (Sir JAMES SCARLETT)
moved the Court, on behalf of the Crown, for a rule
to show cause why an indictment for perjury, found
°Y,the Grand Jury or the couniY. of Sussex on the
prosecution of an Officer of the Coast Blockade, and
removed by certiorariiuto this Court, should not be
''sent for trial before a Jury of the county of Middle-

simplicity of Mr. SUTHERLAND, Of the Mail coach Hotel,
to cash a bill for 3001. at the branch bank of the Bank of
Ireland in this town, on Friday last. Confiding in the
representations the fellow made of himself, Mr. SUTHER -

110CIIDALE, JAN. 16.—The inquest on the
body of RICHARD EASTHAM, who was found murdered on
Rooley Moor on the 26th of last month, terminated yes-
terday, when the Jury returned a verilict of " wilful mur-
der," against three men, named GREENWOOD, HOWARD,
and Hourn>/c, who were forthwith committed to Lancas-
ter. GRZENWOOD and HOWARD are spinners, and have
resided Shawforth, a small village in this neighbour-
ood ; 110LPixo is a shepherd, living on the %loor, about
half a mile from the place where the body was found. The
two former are young men, low in stature, and strongly
the latter is about forty-five years of age, tall, and
61 a Powerful frame. All three seem but slightly concerned
at their situations.—Manchester Herald.
GREENWICH, JAN. 22.-Up to a late hour,

14 parties are not out of Greenwich ; hut, so private are
they, that all exertions to discover them have as yet proved
"elem.,. It is rumoured that affidavits are prepared by
Mrs. M.'s legal adviser, a respectable solicitor, residing in
Utown, to lay before the Judges, in order that the parties
ral' be admitted to bail till the next Assizes. Mrs.
MlNclzati is a lady about 28 years of age. When she
brought the child from its native place, Mr. MINONAN

table clan eCRANAN, takes its name from that of the parish
The ancient and respec_
where its Chief's family resided, on the eastern banks of
f.oehlomond. A considerable number of small headlands
project into that beautiful lake, along the margin of that
district. Ia the Gaelic language a promontory of that o
de-
seription was anciently termed Buchan, and Buchanan is
the plural of that word ; hence Buchanan, which means
headlands. On the opposite side of Lochlom' ond, the elan
Cot.Quxoux is very numerous. In the Gaelic, Conhin-
nich means the ray of water, and this is the Gaelic
name of Colquhoun, pronounced C°l'°on, derived from
the abundant quantity of spray driven ashore on the beach
of that picturesque country. The great clan c,,,,„/NG,

ORNITHOLOGY.--On Thursday last, there
was shot in the Humber, near Whitton Sands as fine a
Specimen of the wild swan, as ever came under the obser-
ration of the ornithologist. The plumage of this beautiful
bird was of a pure and spotless white, throughout; they,
down, covering the breast and back, being of remarkable
depth and fine texture. The quill feathers of the
Wings were of extraordinary size, and the feet pre-
sented a web of such expanse, as must have endued
the bird with immense power in the ureter. The

when extended, measured from tip to tip,
from the point of the bill to the ex-
of the claws, five feet six inches ; and the whole

During the late fire at York-house, Bath, an
infant, a month old, was left in bed by its mother, while
she went to see the conflagration ; when the father re-
turning home, not knowing the child was in the bed, folded
it up, and before the mother's return, the infant was suf-
focated.---Exeter Alfred.
The Report on Prison Discipline state that

1,700 persons have been annually confined, during the last
seven years, for offences against the Game Laws. What
a nursery for other crimes is this!

Great quantities of game are now, we are told,
sold openly in some of the sea-port towns, as coining from
France; but much of which has only been shipped and un-
shipped to give it that appearance.

MISSIONARY MEETING.—A Meeting of
the Missionaries was held last night at the Romney
Wesleyan Chapel, Romney Terrace, Horseferry-road, to
promote the cause of Missions to the Heathen world. The
Secretary read the Report, which stated that the finances
of the Society were not so flourishing as could be wished.
He concluded by requesting a liberal subscription from the
Meeting.

WINTERTON CATTLE SIIOW.---A corre-
spondent informs us that a meeting has been held at Win-
terton, in the northern part of Lincolnshire, at which it
was proposed to establish two shows annually, for the sale
of all kinds of live stock. The farmers in the neighbour-
hood are determined to give all the assistance in their
power to support the shows.—Hull Packet.

Notwithstanding the severe losses which the
ship-owners of Alloa have sustained during the last year,
the register tonnage has, upon the whole, considerably in-
created in the year ending let. January, 1827 ; more ships
have been built than the number lost. It may not be
generally known, that there are registered at the port of
Alloa, S5B vessels wkose united tonnage amounts to 19,500,
employing 1040 men.—Caledonian Mercury.
A SATISFACTORY CAUSE FOR SCARCITY.
Two labourers, a few nights ago, having just left their
work in the neighbourhood, before coming to town, and
to whet their appetites for supper, went into a public-house,
and actually consumed the following bill of fare, viz. :-
15 bottles of porter, two quartern loaves, half a very sub-
stantial Buchan cheese, and to wash down the whole, a
pint of whisky toddy !—Aberdeen Journal.

We exceedingly regret to announce the me-
lancholy shipwreck of the brig Charles belonging to this
port, which left Sunderland on Saturday se'nnight, coal
laden, for Boston ; and was seen all the following day
within a short distance of the shore, the wind and sea beat-
ing strong against her ; she was wrecked on Sunday night
off Ryhope, near Sunderland, and all hands on board pe
rislasd. —Boston Gazette.

INCREASE OF CRlME.—Staffordshire ses-
sions commenced on Wednesday, when the preliminary
business was transacted. On Thursday the trial of pri-
soners commenced. Sir 0. 111ost.Ev, in his charge to
the Grand Jury, regretted that there were in the calendar
forty prisoners under the age of 21 years, and twenty-four
under the age offifteen.-21Ianehester Herald.
CURIOUS BLUNDER.—" One hundred and
fifty Exiles from. Siberia have arrived in one box by the
brig Mobile from Glasgow" (meaning Madame Cottin's
delightful little novel of that name). The Boston States.
man takes the statement in its literal sense, and says,—
" Exiles of Siberia.—One hundred and fifty of these
miserable felons are said to have arrived at New York.
Among them Coant BENYOWSKY." Puor BENYOWSKY
has been dead these 33 years, and has had more than a
score of tragedies witten about him ! Manchester
Herald.

On the 14th current, being auld Hansel Mon-
day, Mr. Lowuix, lessee of Brighton quarry, near Fal-
kirk, entertained a party of sixty-four in his house, to an
early supper. They consisted entirely of his own children
and grand-children, and their various relations and connec-
tions ; a number of them, no doubt, would be mere chil-
dren. Mr. LOWRIE has, for some time past, been in a
frail state of health ; but on this night, exhilirated by the
festivities of the evening, he was in uncommonly good
spirits, and seemed to have his strengths renewed ; but
mark the uncertainty of life—he was suddenly taken ill in
the night, and before morning was a corpse.—Glasgow
Herald.

SHOCKING DEPRAVITY.—About a fortnight
since, some heartless miscreants entered one of the West
Marshes, at Grimsby, and wantonly cut the sinews of the
hind legs of three sheep, the property of Air. Alderman
Moony, and left the poor animals weltering in their blood,
in which state they were found alive on the following
morning. A handsome reward was offered for the dis-
covery of the offenders ; notwithstanding which, a few
days afterwards, six sheep were cut in a similar manner :
the offered reward was doubled, and other means adopted,
none of which had the desired effect, for on Monday morn-
ing five sheep were cut in the same way, and subsequently
thrown into a ditch and drowned. To add to this cata-
logue of malicious barbarity, two more sheep were on
Sunday morning found maimed in a similar way. The
greatest anxiety prevails in the town. One man is

DREADFUL
the following from a" A violent disturb-
ance took place at the village of Gyntliam, near Spittle, on
A correspondentFillA
Friday last. A party of dikers, having buried one of their
comrades drank to his memory so long that the landlord,
fearing the
consequences, wished them to quit his premises
and go to their work. On this, they turned him and his
family out of the house, took forcible possession, and esta-
blished themselves. A posse of constables was procured,
and the party dislodged ;
but they returned with a reinforce-
ment of their comrade., and a serious affray was the conse-
quence. A Magistrate read the riot act, and one of the
constables fired his pistol—the wounded man fell—and
many a broken head followed on both sides.
A party of
soldiers were sent from Brigg, and sixteen being put into
a light coach, with four horses, arrived at the spot in a
very short time. This force soon settled the business--
When I left, the man wounded by the pistol was not ex-
pected to live. The soldiers are still on guard,"—Hun
IPacket.

ALDQATE.—A Leasehold Estate, comprising two
spacious dwelling-houses and premises, situate Nos.
28 and 29, Aldgate.; also a spacious dwelling-house

RALPH SHERWIN, when he seceded from
Drury, drove a coach ; In allusion to this, the treasurer
said, on his coming for his salary, " Well, SnEawlN,
when does the coach start ?" " The moment your honour
pays the fare," was the reply.

The Earl of ELDorr, it would seem, has
shown no inclination to return to the fatiguesof office. It
is said that when a hint was once given to his Lordship, by
a Church dignitary, that his ease would be consulted by
retiring' to a station of less labour than that of the Chancel-
lorship, he replied, " What would your Lordship think
if I recommended you to be translated from - to
Llandaff?"

We have much satisfaction- in beim-, enabled
to state, that upon a comparative view of the receipts and
disbursements of the Custom's establishment of this port,
for the last year, with that of 1826, that there is an in-
crease in the duties collected to the amount of 8,1901.,
and a diminution in the expenditure of the department to
,he amount of 1,458/. 12s. lid.—Boston Gazette.
ANOTHER BANKERS PARCEL LOST OR
STOLEN.—A parcel of hills and notes, to the amount of
12,000/. was abstracted on Friday last, from the Doncaster
coach (late Doncaster mail). It was addressed to Messrs.
WALKER, EYR; and STANLEY, bankers, Sheffield. Pay-
ment of all the notes have been stopped, and a reward of
.50/. offered for the restoration of the parcel.—York
Courant.

LEWES.—On the day after the affray at Bex..
hill, a large company of smugglers were seen to pass
through the village of Wellingdon, about three miles from
Eastbourn. The smugglers were from 100 to 150 in
number, with carts, horses, &c. all heavily laden, and took
a cross country direction over the downs. There can be
but little doubt that they were of the party concerned in
the affray. Six persons, charged with the murder of the
l3lockade men, were committed to our house of correction
on Friday last.—Brighton Guardian.

Loss Or THE CREIVOF THE MAY, COASTER,
u. Sm.Bv.—From a boat having been found on the Lin-
colnshire coast, near to Cleathorpe, on the 10th inst., it
was apprehended that a fatal accident had befallen the May,
a coaster, belonging to Mr. BANKS, of Selby ; and we
deeply regret to announce, front the bodies of the crew
having been since cast ashore near the mouth of the Hum-
her, the full confirmation of the fears entertained. The
crew consisted of JouN and Wm. BANKS, sons of the owner
(the former of whom was master of the vessel) ; also, of
an assistant hand belonging to Brotherton ; all of whom
have perished. The bodies of the two brothers were
brought to this town, and conveyed hence to Selby on
Tuesday last, in the Aire steam-packet, at which place they
were interred the following day. —Hull Packet.

The Singapore Chronicle of August 30 says
—We regret to mention the total loss of a very fine ship,
the Loretto, which left this port or, the 2:2d of last month,
bound for London. She proceeded safely on her voyage till
the Sth of this month, when at 4 p.m. they were abreast
of an island, described as lying off the east end of Carimata,
and which at six pm. bore S. W. by W. i W., with sound-
ings of 10, 11, and 12 fathoms, and continuing their course,
at half past nine the vessel grounded on a shoal, the island
above-mentioned bearing from it N. W., Carimata IV:S.W.,
and a group of islands bearing from S.E. to S.E. I E.,
the latitude of the shoal being 1 deg. 35 min. south, and
the bottom of coral rocks with soft sand or mud. All en-
deavours to get the vessel off proved fruitless. For the first
three days she made little or no water, but on the fourth
she began rapidly to fill, owing, as was supposed, to the
starting of a plank. The pumps were of course set a going,
but with so little effect that she had soon 13 feet water in

the well. Her situation being now desperate, all hands
took to the boats, which were well provided with water,
provisions, and arms, and in about a quarter of an hour
from quitting the ship they saw her taken possession of by
five or six pirate prahus which had been hovering around
for two or three days before, like vultures watching for a
dying pray. The boats made the best of their way for this
port, and arrived here on the 20th inst. all well.

We regret to learn, that the revolting system
of robbing the sepulchres of the dead is still carried on,
even in pretty 'emote parts of the country. Of this the
following example occurred lately at Drumoak :--Iu the
church-yard of that parish, the grave-digger, as is his
custom, was in the morning walking over the burial ground,
to ascertain if all was right, when the appearance of one of
the graves, in which a person had been buried the day pre-
vious, struck him, and on examination, he found, that al-
though carefully covered, it had undergone some alteration.
This suspicion he successively communicated to some of the
elders and the clergyman, who, concurring in the necessity
of being satisfied on the slibject, had the grave opened,
when their suspicion was confirmed, the body recently in..
terred having been removed. On this discovery, a person
was sent to Aberdeen to lodge information, and endeavour
to trace the delinquents, but without success. The follow-
ing evening, however, a farmer in the neighbourhood, while
near his own house, observed a gig standing on the old Dee-
side road, and before he could satisfy himself as to the ex-
traordinary circumstance, it drove rapidly past, he having
barely time to observe there were two men passengers.
Suspicion flashed on his Mind, that these parties might be
concerned in the affair which had created such alarm in that
part of the country, and he immediately took a poney from
the stable, mounted him, and galloped off in pursuit. Some
miles onward to Aberdeen the two young men bolted from
the gig and effected their escape, by getting into an adjoin-
ing wood, near Newton of Murtle. The body was found
in the gig, and carried back for interment; the parties con-
cerned are not yet diseoveed. —Aberdeen Chronicle.

MOLIERE.—MOLIERE was a man of great
heart, very generous ; but sensitive also, and subject in the
midst of his pleasantries to that melancholy which is so
often found in the company of wit. It was on the side of
his sympathies and not his antipathies, that MOLIERE was
weak. He troubled himself with a wife too young for
him ; and after having ridiculed jealousy in his comedies,
was fain to acknowledge that he felt it in all its bitterness
himself. Candour takes away the degrading part of these
mortifiestions ; but the sting is there nevertheless. What
endears us the more to his sincerity, and to the habitual
kindness of his heart, is his saying to his friend CuArems.
whom lie made his father-confessor on this occasion. that
" finding how impossible it was to conquer his jealousy,
he began to think that it might be equally impossible in
the object of his affections to get rid of het' coquetry." The
worst of it was, that their ages were unequal. His young
wife (the daughter of an actress in his corps dramatique,
which gave rise to a scandal refuted by the date of their
connection) was herself an actress, beautiful, and surround-
ed with admirers. She probably loved the poet as well as
she could, but found that she loved people of her own age
better; while lie, taking his undying admiration of beauty
for a ri[Fit to possess it, forgot till too late that poets' hearts
mmuch longer than their persons. The con-
sequenceain
w a
n
, t
that two people, both of them perhaps very
re
worthy, became a grief and tormen to one another, merely
because incompatible marriages are permitted; for Alo-
ideitE had been a great ridiculer of marriage, and there no
doubt lay good part of the sting. He should have gone
abroad more out of tise society of his corps dramatique,
and found some charmer to love lees unsuitable to his time
of life. There are born poetesses, in their way among the
women, whom temperance and the graces help to keep
young even in person, and often in a more touching man-
ner than the young and thoughtless. Mor.teae should have
laid his laurelled head in the lap of one of these,—s-Leigh

trade to-day, but prices are unaltered from Monday. Beans
continue as last reported. Grey Pease are rather lower.
The prices asked for Oats rather exceed last quotations,
but there is very little life in the trade. The sale for
