TEST AND CORPORATION ACTS.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL presented a petition from the
Dissenters of London and Westminster, for the repeal of
the Test and Corporation Acts.
Ordered to be printed.

Mr. CURTEIS said, it was his intention to bring
forward a series of resolutions, to show that the Roman
catholic% in England and Wales did not suffer by the
law as it now existed, respecting the Land Tax,
and he moved that there he laid before the House ac-
counts, to show the excess levied on the Catholics of Eng-
land and Wales by the present law. He had made inquiries
that led him to believe there would be no difficulty in
having those documents produced.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Fze. 5.
'AREAS CORPUS. PARTE CHARLES BAXTER, A

BANKRUPT.
A writ of habeas corpus having been obtained on
a former day for bringing up the body of the bank-
rupt, who had been committed to Newgate by the
Commissioners of Bankrupt for having given unsa-
tisfactory answers to the questions propounded to hint
on his second examination under the commission, the
bankrupt was now brought up.
Sir J. SCARLETT (with whom was Mr. ARCH..
Bop)) submitted that he had been improperly com-
mitted by the Comtnissioneri.
Mr. LAW and Mr. KNIGHT (of the Chancery bar)
were heard ou the other side.

After the Judges had conferred togother a few
minutes,
Lord TENTERDEN said that the question in this
case was, whether or not the bankrupt had answered
in a satisfactory manner. The Court thought it
right to pause before they decided that question, the
liberty of the subject being concerned in this matter.
In the mean time the bankrupt must remain in cus-
tody.
The bankrupt was then removed in custody.
MANDAMUS.

Mr. BROUGHAM moved for a writ of mandamus,
directed to the trustees of the Liverpool Docks, di-
recting them to pay into the Bank of England, in the
name of the Accountant-General of the Court of
Exchequer, the sum of 61,6721., or such other sum
as the Court might direct, to be carried to the credit
of the account of Wm. Statham, Esq.
Lord TENTERDEN— -Take the rule nisi, which will
not be made absolute if the money is paid.

VALUABLE ESTATE, IN THE COUNTY OF

DUMFRIES, FOR SALE.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
Within the Parliament House of Edinbur4h, upon WED-
NESDAY, March 5, at Two o'Clock in he afternoon,
THE LANDS and ESTATE MOUSE-
'. WALD, consisting of 3,071 A ,Cof Land, or
thereby Scotch Statute Measure, lying a llcontiguous, and
situated within six or seven miles of Dumfries, and eight
miles of Annan, the property being intersected by the
Public Road between these Towns.

The estimated Rental of the Lands is £2,401 7 0
And the Public Burdens are yearly ... 244 0 7

Leaving free rent 2,157 6 5

Which at 26 years' purchase will yield 56,089 18 6
Add:value of the wood 2OO 0 0
Add also value put upon a tract of Moss

belonging to the Estate 2,401 '7 0
Add likewise the value of the Freeholds 859 6 6

Upset Price £59,550 12 0

The Tythes of the Lands are valued at te3o/. 18s, Bd.
sterling, and are nearly exhausted ; and the Lands hold of
the Crown for payment of an elusory blench duty.
' The Estate of Mousewald has a southern exposure, and
excepting the Moss above-mentioned, is wholly under culti-
vation, the soil of a considerable portion of it being of the
highest quality. In point of situation, its advantages are
numerous, being on both sides of the upper and lower lines
of the Dumfries and Annan roads, along which the Car-
lisle and Port Patrick mail, the Carlisle, Glasgow, and
Edinburgh stages, pass daily, and by which there is the
greatest thoroughfare of Cattle in Scotland. There be-
longs to the Estate a tract of Moss of about 800 Acres in
extent, lying towards the river Locher, which, on the re-
moval of a mill, would, it is well known, be rendered
very valuable Land, and afford a great increase to the ren-
tal. The beet Lime Quarry in the County is within five
miles. Lead has been found on the Estate, and as smelt-
ing places are still visible, there is every reason to think
this metal has been worked on it at a former period.
The Estate is moderately rented. The rents are well
said, and setting every capability of improvement out of
riew, the upset price has been fixed so low that a pur-
!baser would at entry draw nearly four per cent. for his
money.

For further particulars application may be made to
tlessra. Walker, Richardson, and Melville, W. S. 110,
iieorge-street; Edinburgh, or to Mr. Threshie, junior,
writer in Dumfries.

AT a AIEETING of the Committee ap-
pointed to conduct the application to Parliament,
for the REPEAL of the CORPORATION and TEST
ACTS ; consisting of the Committee of Deputies from the
several Congregations of Protestant Dissenters of the three
Denominations, Presbyterian, Independent, and Baptist ;
with Deputations from the General Body of Protestant
Dissenting Ministers of the three Denominations, the Uni-
tarian Association, the Scotch United Associate Presbytery
of London, and the Protestant Society for the Protection
of Religious Liberty ; representing the various leading
Denominations of Protestant Dissenters; held at the King's
Head Tavern in the Poultry, on Monday the 4th day of
February, 1828,
HENRY WAYMOUTH, Esq. in the Chair,

Resolved, That we hail with high gratification the nearly
unanimous determination of the Corporation of the City of
London, founded upon their Resolutions of May last, to
petition both Houses of Parliament, for the Repeal of the
Corporation and Test Acts, which are at the same time an
unnecessary and impolitic restriction, both upon the pre-
rogative of the Crown, and the privileges of Corporate
Bodies, and an intolerable grievance, and an unmerited
stigma, on Protestant Dissenters.
Resolved, That the cordial thanks of this united Com-
mittee, are hereby given to Samuel Favell, Esq., the
Mover of the Resolutions in the Court of Common Coun-
cil, for his great services on this and other occasions to the
sacred cause of Religious Liberty.
Resolved, That the cordial thanks of this United Com-
mittee are hereby also given to Walter Anderson Peaeoek,
Esq., the seconder of the Resolutions in the Court of Com-
mon Council.

quire the Court to remand the insolvent at his suit

of four years ; and as an allegation had been made
that the whole transactions had been-tinctured with,
illicit traffic, it became the Court to take time to-
examine not only the evidence but the various do-
cuments put in, before they gave their ultimate opi-
nion upon the case. The 'Learned Chief Commis-
sioner then-readover the most material parts, of the
evidence, and made his comments as he proceeded.
He then alluded to the evidence of Mr. Blogg, Mr.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR-Your insertion of this letter will be a great obli-
gation to a great body of my brother Licensed Victuallers.
Having observed in the Courier of last evening the sub-
stance-matter connected with the Licensing of Hotels
under the Bill just passed for the immediate protection
of certain hotels ; and particularly those of the first
respectability at the west end of the metropolis, who had
for several years past neglected to renew their licences,
which there can be no doubt was the cause of producing
the Hotel Bill, enabling two Magistrates, if they should so
thinkfit, to grant them licences before the annual licensing
day, in order that they may be protected from informa -
tions, which they were subject to from being without such
licence ; it is the general opinion of most hotel-keepers, as
well as myself, that the slur endeavoured to be cast upon
that body by the Courier and Times, in stating that they
are under the influence of the brewers, who have from
that cause prompted them and the licensed victuallers
to oppose the wholesale mode of licensing hotels,
so destructive to the already licensed property, is unfair and
extremely illiberal. I have been acquainted for many
years with most of .the hotel keepers of the first
respectability, none of whom, I know from the best
anthority, are under the influence of either Brewer, Dis-
tiller, or Wine Merchant4and many of whose houses, are
one half the year without an adequate return, which
has been the cause of those who could convert part of their
premises into taps or gin-shops so to do, enable them to
meet their heavy expenses ; and I do contend, from the
very long acquaintance with the Hotel business, that there
is at the present time more Hotels than can be respectably
supported by the public, the truth of which the whole of
the Hotel-keepers are ready to prove,
And am, Mr. Editor, with great respect,
Your most obedient Servant,
CHARLES HARRISON.

PORTUGAL HOTEL, FLEET-STREET.

Mr. TILsoN applied for a license for the houses,
No. 154 and 155, Fleet-street, but now united, in
which the business of an hotel had been carried on
for upwards of four years past by a Mr. Okes.
From the statement of Mr. Okes and his bar-
maid, and also a respectable gentleman, one of his
customers, it appeared that the Portugal Hotel had
been carried on with the greatest respectability for
upwards of four years ; that it was resorted to by
gentlemen, with their wives, children, and servants;
that thirty beds were made up in it ; and that, occa-
sionally, it was so full, that the proprietor was obliged
to send out and hire beds for the accommodation of
hic, customers; that there were two public coffee-
rooms, and various private sitting-rooms ; and
families frequently resided there for weeks together.
Mr. ADOLPIILs opposed the license. The ques-
tion in this case was, whether the house was wanted
or not? or whether it was to be licensed at the ex-
pense of the Globe, Peelis, Anderton's, and various
other regular hotels in the immediate neighbourhood ?
The Learned Counsel was proceeding to argue that
the house was unnecessary, when he was interrupted
by the Bench.
After some consultation amongst the Magistrates,
Alderman WOOD said that the present house was
cigar Is' one of those contemplated by the Statute,
and whether it was needed or not would be a
question when the period for renewing the licenses
came round. The Bench did not think that in the
present stage it was to look at that part of the case,
but was bound to grant the license.
The license was granted accordingly.

A Mr. Sorbrook applied fora lieehouse,

which is situate on Fish-street-hill. It is a chop and
eating-house, and was so longbefore the Ist January,
but upon inquiry it turned out that one principal
room in the house was let to an engraver for a
working room, and several rooms were not fur..
nished at all.
The applicant accounted for this by saying that he
was afraid to go to the expense of furnishing the
house, which was a very large one, entirely, unless
he was sure of a licence.
The Bench thought that this was a case rather for
the regular licensing day than for the present time,
and recommended the applicant to apply on the next
licensing day.
There
being no other applications, the Meeting
broke up,

YORK AUGUST MEETING.

YORK, WEDNESDAY NzonT.
The following are the names of the principal visitnrs :
Marquis of Cleveland, Earl of Scarborough, Earl Fitz_
William, Lord Milton, Lord Kelburne, Lord Normanby—
Honourables E. Petre, D. Stourton, and C. Erskine_
Colonels Udney, King, Teasdale, and Cradock—Majors

J. Swan, G. Swan, The'bison, Fletcher, Serjeantson, Je-
liffe, Uppleby, Wilkinson, H. Wormald, Brown, Bower,
Baker, &c.

The weather has undergone a favourable change since
our last report. Yesterday all was rain, mud, and gloom;
to-day all was sunshine. The company, however, was
not more numerous ; the running was good, without being
first-rate.

As much depends on the proprietorship of a horse en-
gaged in a great betting race, we think it proper to state
that Coulon, who was recently a leading favourite fur the
Great St. Leger, is now the sole property of Mr. Crompton.
The following is an accurate return of the day's sport :

THE MARKETS.

SOUTHALL MARKET.—Aug. G.
This day's market being well supplied, and the assem-
blage of buyers in it not very numerous, each kind of fat
stock met with a very sluggish sale, at the following prices
per stone of Sib. to sink the offals :
Beef 38.4 d. to 4s, 4d. Veal 4.5. (k!.• to ss. Od.
Mutton I 6 4 6 Pork 4 2 5 4
Lamb 4s. 2d. to ss. 2d. _

The foregoing quotations are Reef, Mutton, Lamb, and Pork,
the same as on this day sennight ; Veal at a depression of 2d.
per stone. Notwithstanding the sluggishness of the trade, Lint a
small proportion of the supply remained unsold at the close of
the market.
London, England, 1828-08-08

for 20s. which he changed on arriving in Liverpool by the
Britannia steam-packet, to pay 2s. 6d. for his passage, and
support himself on his journey to London, which he per-
formed on foot. The prayer-book he also bought with
part of the money, and the 49. 6d. was the residue..
" And what induced you to do all this ?" said the Magis-
trate. " Had your parents treated you unkindly?"
" Oh, no ! indeed no !" answered the boy, sobbing,
" they loved me dearly."
MAGISTRATEO—TheiI why was you so wicked as to
leave them? The Boy.—l heard so many fine things said
of London, I couldn't help coming to see it.
The MAGISTRATE sent him to the Borough Compter, to
he kept in the Governor's house till his father could be
made acquainted with his situation, to whom the clerk was
directed to write immediately.

5 to 4 on the field agst Rowton.

After two or three false starts, which occupied nearly
an hour, they went off in line. Lord Norroanby's imme-
diately got in front at a tremendous pace, Tamboff, Lord
Kelburne's, and Rowton following, the others in a body
behind. Thus placed, they ran very near to the Stand,
when Lord Normanby's gave way, and Rowton at once
went to the front, which he maintained to the end, win-
ning a pretty race rather cleverly by a length ; rode by W.

The venerable Earl litzwilliam (who may be justly
called Father of the County) was present, and, in the in-
terval of the race, walked through the betting ring, lean-
ing on the arm of Mr. Alderman Wilson, Father of the
city of York. The heart-felt cheers of the spectators suf-
ficiently evinced the respect felt for the Noble Earl.

CITY MARKETS, TWO O'CLOCK.

PLANTATION SUGARS.--The demand this week has been
rather brisk, and a very fair portion of business has been
done each day at full prices ; in sore instances, for the
good and strong qualities, rather more &rioney was ob-
tained ; the deliveries from the West India Dock continue
to be very extensive, and much larger than those of last
year ; last week nearly 1,000 casks. 150 lihds. Barba-
does were offered by public sale on Tuesday, and went off
very briskly at rather higher prices ; 6,312 bags Mauritius
Sugar were brought forward to-day, but the greater part
appeared to be bought in ; the quality of the whole parcel
was very inferior, and the buyers showed very little incli-
❑ation to purchase, unless at low prices.

FOREIGN SI7CARS.—There have been no transactions
reported this week. Two or three parcels of Porto Rico
Sugar have arrived, and are now being landed.
REFINED SUGARS.—The demand since Monday has
been extremely languid, and in the middling and good de-
scription of goods purchases have been made at e.d. to Is.
below last week's quotations ; for the low qualities, how-
eve, the refiners continue firm in their prices, 795. 6d.
having been repeatedly offered for lumps, and refused.
COFFEE.—The quantity of British Plantation offered by
public sale this week has gone off very heavily, and ex-
cepting a few lots of favourite marks which were wanted
by the dealers, at reduced prices; the total quantity of.
fered has been '733 casks, of which only part was sold.

CRIMPING SALMON.—.The fat of salmon,
between the flake,, is mixed with much albumen and gels.tine, and i 5 extremely liable to decompose. By keeping
it coot the decomposition is retarded, and by the boiling
salt and water, which is of a higher temperature than that
iof common boiling water, the albumen is coagulated, and
the curliness preserved. The crimping, 1w preventing the
irritability of the fibre front being gradually exhausted,
4ems to preserve it so hard and crisp, that it breaks under
the teeth ; and a fresh fish not crimped is generally tough.
The red colour of trout, salmon, and char, is owing to a
coloured oil, whi h may be extracted by alcohol ;
114 this accounts for the want of it in fish that have fed
cll. and after spawning. In general the depth of the red
Le°l4ur, and the quantity of curd are proportional.—Edin-

LEEDS CORN MARKET.-Aug. 5.

We had a good supply of Wheat and Oats, but only
moderate of other Grain. Since last Tuesday the weather
has been more or less unsettled, and we have had some
rain during the market to-day ; but the millets having
bought freely of late, the demand was very limited, and
the business done in Wheat was upon the same terms as
last week. In Oats, Shelling, and Beans, no material al-
teration can be noted.
