SURREY SESSIONS.—(Tins DAY.)

The Munster Meetings are to take place this week,
at which the great leader intends to propose the Instal-
lation of the knights of this romantic order. We
anxiously await the result, when we hope to hear of
this maniacal proposition having been scouted with
merited ridicule.

The Adjourned Sessions commenced at Horsemonger-lane, be-
fore Mr. HILDOMR, Chairman, and other Magistrates•
John Forsythe was indicted by Henry Murray for an assault.
Mr. JZMMETT attended for the prisoner, who is a baker : the as-
sault arose from a dispute concerning a loaf, which Murray de-
nied having received. The prisoner wits fined 6s. Eld., which he
paid and was discharged. _ . .

Henry Bullard and Peter Payne, were charged with felo-
nioualy stealing various articles of household furniture, value four
pounds one shilling, the property of Richard Burnell.
Mr. Jeinmet was engaged by the prosecutor, and stated, that
his client rented a house. of Bullard, in Belvidere-row, and was
indebted to the landlord up to the 20th of July, 1825, 71. 10$. fo'r
rent. He requested time to pay it in, and undertook, on Bul-
lard having distrained, to pay it in a month. On the 18th of
August they took the goods away, as the money had not been
paid. They took away treble the value of the amount of rent.—
Mr. Burnell got other goods, and left a padlock on his door,
but on returning to the, house, he found that it had been
broken open, and the whole of the goods taken out.—
On attempting to enter his room, they presented a blunderbuss,
and threatened to blow out his brains. For this violence he now
appealed to a jury of his countrymen, to punish the offenders,
and to know if a man's residence could be broken into, and robbed
without cause or authority. The first witness ht called was Mr.
Burnell, the prosecutor, who deposed that he was a house agent,
and rented a room of the prisoner Bullard at RI. per annum.
That in the month of April he engaged some other apartments for
the whole of which he was to pay 30/. per annum. On the
first quarter becoming due Bullard applied for the rent. Wit-
ness told him that he was out of cash, and would pay in a few
days. Bullard, however, distrained for the amount, and left a
man in possession, whom be withdrew on witness signing an
undertaking to pay it in a month. He could not do so,
and the goods were eventually taken away. He got
more goods, and on leaving his apartmenta in the morning, he
put a padlock on the door. On the first 'leisure, Bullard, the
landlord, and Payne, who was his broker, bad used some vio-
lence, and witness applied to the Magistrates at Union Hell for an
assault warrant. The Magistrate declined interfering, but advised
witness to indict the pi isoners at the Sessions. On his
return to his rooms in the evening, he found that some one had
broken into them. He knocked end demanded admittance. Payne
opened the door a little, and presented a blunderbuss, and told
him, with abuse, that if he did , not go about his tusiness he
(Payne) would blow his braini out.

A letter, of which the following is an extract, has
been received from Chili, by the Arid schooner, ar-
rived from Valparaiso at Liverpool :
VALPARAISO, AVAIL 29.—The deputy from Buenos Ayres
has purchased the Milan squadron, consisting of the O'Higyins
frigate, Independencia corvette, and the Galvarino brig. The
officers have volunteered, and the ships are to be fitted out with
all possible despatch to proceed round Cape Horn. The Govern-
ment of Chile has refused to take any part in the pending dispute
between the Buenos Ayreans, and the Brazilians ; nevertheless,
the war is very popular here, as well as in Peru. Chile remains
quiet. Orders have been issued for electing a new congress, which
-is to assemble in June. The number of members is to be 53 ;
they are to be balloted for throughout the republic on the same
day. The candidate must be a citizen and a native of the town
or district for which he offers himself, or must have resided there-
in for five years.

Extract of a letter from Smyrna, dated 19th July

His Majesty's ship Seringapatam and Medina are in port ;
the Medina goes convoy on the 21st, to the Matilda, Vain.
Sarah, Gibson, Thomson, Hobbs, Wiihelmina, Melville, and
Britannica, Neill, for Alexandria. His Majesty's fri-
gate, Sybille, lost upwards of twenty men by sending her
boats into a creek in the small island of Garai,. near
Candle; to destroy piratical craft, about three weeks ago ; the
place has always had the name of being a refuge for desperate cha-
racters, and is said now to be the strong hold of the pirates.
Measures must have been taken by this time to reduce them, as
AdMiral Neale or Captain Hamilton would soon be acquainted of
the Sybille's loss. The Seamander having been furnished with
men and arms by his Majesty's ship Rose, was chased by a pirate,
but could not succeed in decoying him from the land. We do
not hear of further depredations, but there can be no doubt the
pirates being as numerous and as ready as ever to attack all vessels
unprotected.

The Counsel for the prisonels submitted, that the second seizure
was made for the rent of the four weeks alloivid to make up the
ii. 10s. of the first seizure, and. that it could not be construed
into a felony.

The prosecutor had commented two actions for the trespass by
which the prisoners would, if guilty, be punished, and he con-
tended, that there was no ground for the charge of felony.
After discussing the question for come time,

The CHAIRMAN declared it his opinion tba,t an action of trover
was the most proper mode of proceeding, and recommended the
Jury to find the prisoners Not Guilty, which they did without
proceeding farther into the case.
