Dispatches hare been this morning received from
Lisbon to the 9th inst. His Excellency Sir CHARLES
STUART had embarked on hoard his Majesty's ship
Diamond, which ship was getting underweigh at the
time the Royalist packet brig sailed. We have not
yet received Papers by this opportunity.

We received last night the French Papers of Mon-
day, with the Etoile dated Tuesday morning. The
latter contains a continuation of the SULTAN'S firman
against the Janissaries, and promises its conclusion in
another number. This portion of the firman is not
less interesting than the first part, which we published
yesterday. It appears to give a faithful history of the
conduct and crimes of the Jimissaries, and affords
ample proof of the necessity of putting down so law-
less a band. The excesses committed by this corPs
on the attempt to introduce European discipline int°
their ranks, are stated to have .been most outrarn".
They attacked the Palace of their Aga, and even of
the Sublime Porte, the Palace of the Grand Vizier,
and others, and after having plundered these residences,
they cut the Koran to pieces with their knives, where-

GIIgEK LOANS.

Tp TIM EDITOR.
MR. ROWRING.

Sta—l was about to answer mine .of the aceilkatiobstvliiil have
been directed against Me by Mr. Liftioftis. I must hear the rest
of his statements, a'nd you will have an opportunity, and the
public too, of judging of the nature of his testimony,. . •
Mr. Luriottis, who says he is u creditor for ,3,0001. on the
Greek Government, came to this oni.t4y G a state of absolute
destitution. I lent bin; the il'ioney which enabled hint to pay his
debts EAtgiaini, and to return to Greece. I know not what
impression Mr. Luriottis intends to convey by parading his corre-
spondence respecting the shipment of stores to lal,oliy 'and the ,i-e=
fusal of Messrs. Ricardo to. pay the freight ; but this I know, that
Mr. Luriottis hat ticblica the Greek Government for 200 t., as a
payment made fur this identical freight.
The statement against me in your leading article of to-day is a
tissue of misrepresentations ; they will disappear when the facts of
the 'ease ate known, and I will as soots as possible state those facts,,
with the correspondent doctunents. Meanwhile! have only to en-
treat that the Snisinnations and aspersions of an individual who has
been removed from a plate of tritst, its consequence of the aissatis,
faction he has given to those who blared hint therein, may he re-
ceived with sotne distrust, sonde hesitation.

LONDON,

g
Of the " London Magazine" we cannot, as a whole,
speak in terms of praise. Whoever or whatever be
the Editor, he is a sad dull do , though perhaps he
may have the usual modicum of editorial learning. In
the " Diary (for instance) of the month of October,'
there are some desperate attempts at facetiousness
the forbidding witticisms of some scribe, who doubt-
less.would " turn a Persian talc for half-a-crowv," as
happily as this inventory of deficiencies. The elegiac
stanzas, however, ,4 On a Watchman," are exempt from
such defects ; they are humorous end characteristic, with
a pleasant vein of thought running through them. In the

MU. ELLICE.

Sir-;..llegard for my own character with those to whom I Litt

qualified sense, the truth of the statenienta to your paper of the

I am, Sir, yours, &.e.
EDVirARI) ELLICE.

Twickenham, Oct. 29.

MR. BOWRING.

Sir-44 wait till Mr. Luriottis has completed his testimony.—
My answer shall be prompt, mid, I trust, satisfactory.
He who conceals one-half of what he knows may give to false-
hood the semblance of truth. To suppress evidence is nearly as
bad as to invent it. The man who is derided by undeserved
eulogium is Ins to be envied than is the victim of unmerited cen-
sure. The beat triumph is the final triumph.
I am, Sir, yours obediently,
JOHN BOWRING.

Jeffreys-square, Oct. 30.

MR. HUME.

Sir—l only this day saw The Times of the 08th instant, in
which a transaction of mine respecting Greek Scrip is grossly
misrepresented.
I am surprised to find Mr. Luriottis bearing testimony to the
fasts there narrated being " substantially correct," as be must
know that it is absolutely false that " I took alarm at the depre-
ciation of Greek stock," and therefore "applied to the deputies
and contractors to be relieved from the loss." He knows, as I
shall show from his own letters, the cause which compelled me to
part with my Scrip when it was at a great discount, and.he also
knows that the proposal to take it at par for the Greek Govern-
ment originated with himself and. his colleague, Mr. Orlando; and
that it was not until six month's afterwards, when Greek Scrip
had risen above par, that I accepted their renewed proposal to be
reimbursed for the loss I had incurred. From Mr. Luriottis I
should rather have expected an explanation of, and exculpation
from, such charges.
It will take a little time to look over, and make the extracts from,
the correspondence which passed at the time, sufficient to explain
the transaction fairly.
Meanwhile I entreat that judgment may be suspended.—l re-
main, Sir, your obedient servant,
St. Mary-Cray, Oct. 30. JOSEPH HUME.
P. S. An observation having been made on my not attending
the Committee appointed by the bondholders on the 4th instant,
I beg to state that I declined from the first being on that Commit-
tee, as my distance from London, and family circumstances, ren-
dered it impossible for me to attend.

MISS FOOTE IN BATE!.

n ATU, TussnaY, FEB. 14.—1 t having been
announced that Miss heart would make her first appearance
at our Theatre yesterday evening, in the character of I;etitin
Hardy, great interest was excited, and the house was crowded
at an early hour by one of the most fashionable and numerous
audiences ever seen within its walls. bong before the curtain
rose, however, there were strong marks of disapprobation from
the gallery. Shouts of " Kean for ever," and other 'sentences
expressive of the hard fate of that gentleman as compared with
that of Miss Foote, were heard ; and cat.calls, and every other
instrument of annoyance, were in requisition. The first scene
of the Play went off quietly enough ; hat when Mrs. Racket
(Mrs. Bailey), was, by some mistake, announced as ifri.
Hardy, a general opinion prevailed that Miss Foote was about
to make her appearance. Accordingly, when Mrs. B. advanced
on the stage, a deafening clamour of applause, mingled with
disapprobation, was set up. The mistake was, however, soon
found out, and a general laugh excited in consequence. At
length the important moment arrived when Miss 'Foote was to
brave the ordeal of a Bath audience. She entered, and
the very roof immediately echoed with the plaudits and
disapprobation of the audience. It was evident, however,
that her friends formed the majority, although those ofan oppo.
site character were neither mild in their behaviour, nor few in
number. In short, the whole Play, as far as regarded Miss
Foote, was mere dumb show—not a syllable was heard from her
during the evening, even from the front seat of the pit. Iler
friends, both in the upper boxes and pit, laboured hard, by
beating with sticks, clapping their hands, &c. to overcome the
unfavourable expressions, but in vain—they were warmly cx.
pressed and kept up till last. Miss Foote turned towards
the audience several tunes with imploring looks, but they were
entirely disregarded by " the gods." She still, however, perse.
rated, and, when the curtain was about to drop, several gentle.
men rose, and continued waving their hats for some time. The
object of their approbation appeared deeply affected at this, and
shed tears. When she was announced to appear again this
evening, in the character of Rosalind, the clamour was re.
newed ; hut, after continuing only for a short time, finally
ceased, and the general opinion is, that she will now proceed
to fulfil the remainder of her engagement, without any further
opposition. A theatrical roes of this description has not occurred
in Bath for many years.

HABEAS CORPUS.

Mr. Ca straxu, moved that a writ of Habeas Corpus be direct-
ed to the keeper of the house of correction in Retford, Sussex, to
bring up the body of Mary Ann Martin, a respectable female,
who was illegally confined in the house of correction, by virtue of
a warrant issued by a Magistrate of that county on an
information, stating, that she had been delivered of a
bastard child, which was likely to become chargeable
to the parish, and that she refused to he examined re-
specting the father. The warrant directed that she be confined
until she shall consent to be examined as to the father. The
Learned Counsel, in support of his application, quoted the case of
Billings v. Pryun, 2 Blackstone ; wherein it was decided that a
Committal for such reasons, by one Magistrate, was illegal.—Writ
granted.

BRIMMING AND ANOTHER V. STET/INNS.

This was an action of deceit, brought to recover from the de-
fendant, compensation in damage for the loss which the plaintiffs
sustained from having :purchased the goodwill of a public-house,
which the defendant represented as a more profitable concern than it
had been. It was tried at the last sittings, and a verdict was given
for the plaintiff, damages Ibo/.
Mr. Join; Wiwi.lts moved for a rule to chew cause why the
verdict should not be set aside and a nonsuitentered, on the ground
that no count the declaration had been fully proved. The Court
were of opinion that this being an action of tort, it WAS sufficient
to prove so much of the allegation as would sustain the action
without proving it to the full extent.—Rule refused.
London, England, 1826-11-08

UNWINS V. DAVIS.

In this case Dr. J. ADAMS applied, that the respondent should
be dismissed, as the other party, by delaying to prosecute the suit,
was subjecting his client to enormous expeuce.
Dr. JENNER opposed the motion. He said, his party resided
in France, and that the delay which took place in the prosecution
of the suit, was occasioned by that and the want of money. Under
all the circumstances, he submitted that the Court ought to grant
time for the prosecution of the suit.
Dr. J. Alums submitted that the facts stated by his Learned
Friend were unsupported by any evidence.
Sir JOHN NICHOLL—Is your party ready to make affidavit of
those facts, Dr. Jenner ?
Dr. JENNE R—Certainly.
Sir JOHN Ishcom,—Then let time be given to enable the Pro
motant to make affidavit of the circumstances which prevents him
from prosecuting the suit.—The Court then adjourned.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CIIANCERY—(Ttus DAY. )
AIERIEDITH V. PONSICLL.

Has Lordship stated that he had desired this case to he put
down for judgment en Saturday morning. It was an appeal from
the judgment of the other Court, under the circumstance of the
said judgment ordering that 10 per cent. should be paid on a cer-
tain sum. The appeal proposed altering that judgment, by insisting
that 20 per cent. was not due, by virtue of the Act of Parliament
under the circumstances of the case. That 20 per cent. would
be due, if this had been all money in the hands of the assignees
prior to the declaration of a dividend, there could he no doubt;
but 20 per cent. had been given (by the judgment) after the decla-
ration of a dividend, on the money that remained in the hands of
the assignees, payable to each of the creditors; and the question
for the Court was, whether such 20 per cent was due ?
Upon this question his Loansine had formed an opinion, which
he should pronounce on Saturday, with a statement of his reasons
for it.

LIVERPOOL, NOVEMBER 1, 1926.

(”011 MIS OWN CORKEsPONIANT.)
MORE RESURRECTIONISTS.—The trial and sen-
tence of James Donaldson do not seem to have
made any impression on the minds of the Liverpool
ResurrectionistsEat least in deterring them from their
unlawful pursuits. Another circumstance has been dis-
covered, though not on so extensive a scale as Donald-
son's, that equally shows the inventive minds of this
class of people. On Saturday night, between nine and
ten, a man rather tall, wearing a black coat and yellow
waistcoat,- brought a box covered with canvas, and
directed " Captain Woodsdale, Royal Marines,
Mitchell's Lodgings, 12, Castle-street, Edinburgh,"
to the White Horse Coach-office, Dale-street ; he had
the box booked to go by the coach next morning, and
went off. After he was gone the clerk in the office
examined the box, and perceiving that it smelt very
unpleasant, determined upon opening it, which he did,
and to his astonishment found it to contain a dead
human body ; he immediately gave notice at the Police
office, and Gaskell, a constable, came and conveyed it
to the dead house in Chapel-street. Mr. T. W.
Davies, surgeon, examined the body at the dead house ;
it was that of a young woman, the head had been
shaved, and from the general appearance he had reason
to believe she died of fever in a natural way, and had
been disinterred. The person who brought the box
to the Coach-office has as yet escaped detection. The
box was four feet long by fifteen niches in width, so
that the body had, been bent together before it could
be got in.

THE COUNTY FIRE OFFICE AND COM-

MISSIONERS OF REVENUE INQUIRY.

Seventeen months had elapsed after the first publi-
cation of a vague charge against the County Fire Office,
with defrauding the Stamp-office in the amount of duty,
before the directors could learn what the precise nature
of the accusation was, and who was their accuser ; the
printing of the evidence at length put them in posses-
sion of these facts, when the Directors met, and order-
ed their books to be carefully examined, and legal pro-
ceedings to be instituted. The result of the examina-
tion is subjoined, and appears to be conclusive on the
merits of this extraordinary accusation.

GRAIIAIIt V. FORD.

This was a question relating to the right of administration,
which was disputed under the following circumstances :—A per-
son named Joseph S. Ford, who was the proprietor of a public-
house in Lower Thames-street, which was the resort of fish-sale-
er
men , diedar intestate,
to
a pso keying
six daughters, the eldest of whom
ryas named Graham. The five remaining
mriedaughters were all under age, except miss Ford, who was above
the age of 21 years.
Dr. Lusuntorox now applied that administration should be
granted to Miss Ford, and not to Mrf. Graham. The four minors,
the eldest of whom WAS nineteen years of age, were most
anxious that their unmarried sister should have the care
of their deceased father's Property, rather than Mrs.
Graham, for they submitted that though the legal title
should be vested in Mrs. Graham, the control and management
would really lie with her husband, and that he wag a man of that
character and temper, that it would be most injurious to the un-
married daughters, if he acquired a eoutroul over the property, or
any influence over their concerns. In support of thts view;
several affidavits were put in, detailing the conduct of Mr.
Graham since the death of Ford, which it was contended divested
him of all title to any concern in the property. Amongst other
thine, it V'S.' stated that he had in an indecent manner taken
possession of the property of deemed, and put, a padlock on the
door to prevent the daughters from entering, it was further
stated; that the deceased was decidedly averse to Grahadohaving

any management over his property, and that before his death, he
had declared that he wished his property to be divided equally
amongst his daughters, and that Mr. Savory should be his
executor.

Dr. JruNra, who appeared for Mrs. Graham, argued that the
principle upon which the Court was bound to decide was, by
whom the property would he best administered fur the benefit of
all concerned. Now in this case it appeared that Mr. Graham
was a man of considerable substance. He was an oyster-mer-
chant, and accounted a respectable man. As for the general
charge of want of probity, it could not be supported. Mr. Gra-
ham might have evinced a little too much warmth of temper, but
it appeared that he had been irritated by the conduct of the un-
married daughters and their friends. Under all the circum-
stances, he submitted that the Court ought not to take the admi-
nistration out of the bands of the eldest daughter.
Sir Jones NICHOLL said the right of primogeniture was of it-
self nothing, gateris paribus, it might weigh something in this
case, however : the claims of the unmarried daughters, who re-
sided with their father up to his death, were decidedly preferable,
without any reference to the character given of Mr. Graham.
tinder all the circumstances, the Court ordered that the admini-
stration should be granted to the younger daughter.

COURT .OF CHANCERY.--(Tits DAY.)
At the foot of the Hall, the following, notice was posted to-day :
. , CAUSE PETITIONS. -
The Chancellor'reqttestsi that the solicitors in the cause petitions
to be heard before him, who intend to furnish the Chancellor with
a copy of the petition or petitions in which they are concerned,
Will lend the same to him in such time, that he may have an
opportunity of reading them before they are heard.
POWELL V. SONNYTT.
In this 'case several Spanish gentlemen were concerned. An
action at law,waa brought against the plaintiff in equity by the
defendant, upon which a verdict was obtained for 24,000/. Before
the amount 'was' paid, another party claimed the money. The
counter demands arose from an insolvency of parties in Spain,
Which occasioned a transfer of interests. The plaintiff filed his
bill of interpleader, making the counter claimants two sets of de-
fendanta ; stating that he was prepared to pay the sum to either of
the sets of defendants, upon a proper indemnity, that he should not at
.1:"Y future period be called upon to pay the same sum over again.
de paid the sum into Court, upon having an injunction to re-
strain the defendants from proceeding in any way at law against
him, in respect of that amount of money. A reference was
made to the Master,. to enquire to whom the money was
dui`—he made his report, stating his judgment on the
.reference. Exceptions were taken to the report, grounded on the
circumstance that one set of the defendants only appeared either
here; or before the Master, and that it was not according to the
Prectice of the Court, thit parties could be heard in the hlatiter's
°f6ce, as had been done here, who had not enteted an appearance
on the records of the Court., The disposal of this case was fixed
for Monday.

VIENNA FESTIVITIES.—FEn. JO.

The grand masquerade, which has been long preparing, took
place last Monday in the residence of the British Ambassador,
Sir Henry Wellesley, with extraordinary magnificence. All
the rank and fashitm of the linperial capital seemed to have
united to add histre to this fAte. Twelve quadrilles were formed,
at the head of which appeared the amiable Archthichess Hen-
rietts, in 'the character 'of Mary Queen of Scots, accompanied
by the Archducheks Cleinentine, as Catherine Seyton. The
`Archduke Francis Charles and Prince Leopold of Sicily were
also present. On the following day the whole company went
to the Imperial Palace, where their Majesties the Emperor and
Empress; the Queen 'Dowager of Bavaria, with the Princesses
her daughters, and the whole Imperial FaMily, were assembled
-in the Hall of M irrors, to see all the 12 quadrilki pass in proces-
sion. As it was also the eve of the birthday of her Majesty
the Empress, all were desirous of paying their respects to the
beloved Princess. Her Imperial Majesty went to meet each
quadrille as it came forward, and conversed in the mast affable
manner with the ladies, the splendour of whose costume baffles
all description. The Prince of Salerno appeared as the Caliph
Haroun al Itaschid, accompanied by the Persian Poet Alzaid
(the celebrated Orientalist, M. Joseph Von Hammer), who took
this opportunity to distribute Poems in the Persian and German
languages, i, honottr of the Empress. The procession of the
masques occupied three hours, and at ten o'clock their Majes.
ties withdrew into their apartments. The twelve quadrilles,
composed of a hundred, and sixty-two ladies and' gentlemen,
bore. the following names, from time scenes of History or Ho.
Mance which they represented
The Abbot, from Sir. Walter Scott ; the Lion Heart, 'La
Motte Fatigue; Kenilworth, Walter Scott; Undine, La Motte
Fatigue; Quentin DUrwardi NValter Scott; The Four Brothers,
La Motte Fouque ; the (unstable of Chester, Scott ; Lihussa,
Hamlet, and Polohoise. •

, GENTLV.M'EfiI
HAVING just returned from my Canvass in
the westeth parts of the County, I hasten to apprise my
Friends of the *cry decided expression of goodwill and as-
surance of support which I have universally met with.
Appearances are tiow so favourable throughout all parts of
the County, that my success can barely admit of a doubt ; but
as my Adversary holds out a determination of proceeding to a
poll, l must earnestly request your attendance on the Day of
Election.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obliged and faithful servant,

JUDGMENT.

The sentence of the Court was then pronounced as follows :
-..ltigaud to be imprisoned for three years in the haute of Car.
rection ; Issett, for two years, each to be kept to hard labour ;
and Meeke to one year's imprisonment, and to he kept to such
labour Its her health would permit.
Rigaud on leaving the bar declared that he should work,
however hard, cheerfully, as Miss Baker had escaped.

SOUTH AmEttICAN THEATRICALS.-011 my
return to our inn in the evening, I. found a French
lady of about 50, Lind exceedingly ugly ; she
spoke almost every language in the world, and
was, according to her own representation, the
most intimate friend of all the great ladies in the
four quarters of the globe. She had just tra-
velled by land from California, where a friend
and fellow traveller of hers had died ; she had
passed thus unprotected through regions inha-
bited by cannibal tribes, accompanied only by
an Indian girl, whose brother had been eaten.
We were joking about the way of spending our
evening, and one of us proposed going to the
theatre ; to our infinite surprise and amusement,
she told us that there actually was a theatre at
Pueblo Viejo, that the Manager gave himself
out for the first musician at the Court of Madrid,
and that there was to be a performance that very
evening. She was tired and would not go, but I
was too eager to know what sort of a thing the
theatre of Pueblo Viejo could be to hesitate for a
moment. I was conducted to a shed, constructed in
the same style us the others, at the door of which
was placed a table with a candle upon it and a boy
who stood yawning and waiting for the arrival of
spectators. " You are the first," said he, " and
it Is very late."—" Well, I will come again."
I returned in half an hour, and found, to my great
regret, that there would be no performance, there
being unfortunately no audience. The boy said
the people were all gone to the fete of Pueblo
Nuevo. I was determined, if possible, to see the
theatre, and I entered boldly. The pit is open
to the heavens, the walls are formed of canes co-
vered with leaves, and the stages and scenery are
wretched as can be imagined. The Prima
Donna, who, if she was nothing else, was at
least a white, stood in her little room divesting
herself of the sock, or buskin, and of all her
splendours ; I bowed to her, and the meagre ap.
pearance of her face strongly welcomed me to ask
her to supper.--(I eelay Mirror.)

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CLIANCERY, FEB. 23.
TOWNSRENII V. TOWNSIIEND.
His Lordship said he had read the affidavits last night in this
case, which respected the injunction to restrain waste; but had
not yet satisfied himself whether there should or shotild not he
a reference to the Master. He wou!:1 again look over the docu-
ments, which were very voluminoo, and give his opinion on
Friday morning.
IN RE PATIENT' WOOD, A Lit NAtle.
Mr. GIRDLESTONE adverted to certaiii proceedings in this
case, which he deemed irregular, via, the stopping the delivery
out of his Lordship's Minutes upon this Petition. His Lord-
ship had taken home did papers, aml hail framed the minutes.
What Inc now desired was, that some daily day might be fixed
when the ease might be Mentioned.
The Lunn CHANCELLOU.--I am.vil..y frequently obliged to
take hone papers when they silt voltiiminous. I did to fq thd
present case, and delivered the Minutes to the ltegisevar. I de-
sire to know why those Minutes have not been delivered out ?
1 will never permit any Solicitor to tell my Officer not to deli-
ver out the Minutes. Let the parties tell the Court on Friday
why this has been done, and why they should not pay the costs
consequent upon such an irregular prticeeding.

IN RE LORD PORTSHODTIL, A LUNATIC.
31r. TURNER applied for an early day to be appointed to
hear this petition, which related merely to costs.
The LORD CHANCELLOR did dot understand why this pe-
tition should not take its place turiting the other lunatic peti-
tions. If it were advanced, the consequence would be, that
other matters, probably of equal or greater importance, would
be postponed. It might, lidWeYer, be mentioned tin Friday.

THE COURIER. V. IiUMDELI..

Upon this case being called on in its regular couse,
Mr. ROMILLY (with WhOM were Mr. HEALEI and Mr.
Mostmo LIE. his seniors, but both absent) regretted the ab-
sence of his learned leaders; but before he prodeetled to the
merits of the ease, he must antic to a paragraph which had
appeared ii► D/c Courier newspaper, highly injurious to his
client. —l. The Learned Counsel held a cupy of die paper in his
hand.
Mr. H Ant —4lo* does this statement in The Courier answer
our case?

Mr. ilo3tittit did not pretend that it did, but still he felt it
to be his duty to allude to it, as it contained an insinuation
which Was eXttemely prejudicial to his client. Ile *as the
more induced to advert to it, as it was an intinuatiott placed in
the matith dr his Lordship.
The Lunii CiLiveEi.t.on-1 woultlgood naturctily and re-
spectfully ask Mr. Hominy—what can I do With it?
Mr. lecoutt.t.V said he was only anxious to remove the im-
putation from hls client, and that it shotild fall only where it
was dettetved,

The Lctnn CtrANCE/.r.on—lfa newspaper publishes a re-
port of the proceedings of this Court, Which amounts to It con.
tempt, the only mode is to treat tlte patty as guilty of such
edntempt, upon motion made for that purpose. Unless that
species of application be ttiade, the Court cannot be amused
from day to day by these newspaper statements.
Mr. Roattt.t.Y.-41 is alleged in the paragraph to which I
have aikido& that your Lordship has been atonally pelted by
letters from ttly client.
The l.ottit CIiAtCkLI.OR.,—As the observation is said to have
fallen from me, I will certainly set your client right. It would
be impossible to be hearing every day these complaints df mitt-
Statements of newspapers. If it were allowed, this Cotitt would
have little else to do..—The newspaper was then handed up to
his Lordship.]—The Lout Chancellor—You see how easily
newspapers may be mistaken, for I never Bald Mill ward about
any letters.

'Mr. Ito gii.4Y fully confirmed his Lordship's statement.—
On this account he had been induced to allude to the misrepreA
sentation.

The erAuments in the cause were then proceeded with, but
after hearing Mr. Romilly partiatlyt'the further arguments
were postponed for the purpose of ascertaining the fact, whe-
ther a bill filed in the cause about 20 years ago had been taken
off the file surreptitiously Cr other% ise.

IVELLEit.ET V. TUE DUKE OF nEaussonT.
It was expected that this motion, which WAS of a very inte-
resting nature, as it respected the custody of the plaintiff's
children, would have been discussed at much length to-day.
The case was put at the head of the paper for the purpooe of
argument, but upon the application of Mr. Hart, it was post-
Toned until Friday morning peremptorily.
Ilk Lordship rose, after having disposed of all the causes aft
the paper.

Wake! Wake ! the carriage is waiting love,
Down by the grove near the river's green border—.
Wake ! Wake ! here at your grating, love,
Stands your true lover at Hymen's soft order;
The horses are champing,
The post boys are stamping;
Steal from your slumber, love, all is in order;
'Tie but a pleasant ride,
O'er the fair country side--
Hey ! for the Green that lies over the Border.

Wake ! Wake ! &e.
What though your father may fume my sweet Ellen,
May grumble, and rave about actions at law
Like Paris, I'll fly with my sweet English Helen,
And show I don't value his nations a straw ;
The lawyers may take
Their retainers, and shake
Their big wigs at the Bar, ranged in terrible order ;
Mount on my pillion,
My maid of a million,
A fig for their threats when we drive o'er the Border.

Wake ! Wake•!

Come from your pillow—the morning is shaking
Her tresses of light o'er the brow of the hill ;
Like thee, in her bloom, and her blushes awaking,
And e'en in her coldness, like thee, my love, still,
Steal from your pillow, love,
Come to the laurel grove,
Let not a &WAR alarm your rough warder
Trust your coy charms
To your true lover's arms,
And we'll laugh at them all when we drive o'er the Border.
Wake ! Wake ! &c.
