LA M BETH-STREET.

CHARGE OF CRIM. CON. AND ASSAULT.—Thos.
Lewis, at costermonger, was charged witl► violently
assaulting and ill-treating Joseph Sheldrick.
The complainant was of the same profession as
the defendant, with whom he had been for some
time acquainted. On Friday he met the prisoner
in Smithfield, while purchasing a donkey; and it
being very rainy weather, they went to several pub-
lic-houses, and vetted their insides with some gin
and beer. At a late hour they were at a public-
house in Brick-lane, Whitechapel, where they met
the defendant's wife, and because he spoke a civil
vord to her, the defendant pitched into him right
and left, and injured him s?verely. The complainant
exhibited marks of dreadful punishment; his nose
was cut, his eyes were nearly closed, and the claret
appeared to have flowed very freely from his frontis-
piece.
The defendant, on being asked what he had to
say in answer to the charge, stated that his friend
took liberties with his vile. He put his arms round
her waist, hissed her, and called her a dear creature,
on which he (defendant) was so provoked that he
carved him out.

Friend S. declared he had only spoken a civil
vord to her.

Defendant—Vy, you know I found you in bed
together a long vile ago, and when I forgived you,
you promised not to take liberties with her again.
It's a hard thing, your Vorsliip, that my wikshould
be pulled about by another man.
The complainant denied the crint. con., but
avowed that the frail fair one was " more fonderer"
of him than her husband.

Mr. WALKER dismissed the complaint, and told
the complainant he well deserved the severe beating
he had received.

UNION-HALL

On Saturday Thomas Mlfrec, the man who
stands charged with having robbed Mr. Peter
Stocker, the baker, of Wootton-street, Lambeth,
of 1501., besides a quantity of plate and linen, un.
der the circumstances already detailed, was brought
before Mr. SWABEY and the Rey. Mr. OssLow,
fur final examination. Nothing material WAS dis-
closed in the fresh evidence brought forward. The
Magistrates having consulted together, intimated
that they had no objection to accept of bail for the
prisoner's appearance at the Sessions, as it was one
of those cases in which some doubt existed, and
for which Mr. Peel's Act empowered a man lying
under such accusations to go at large until his
trial, on finding proper securities for his appearaoce.
The Magistrates then held the prisoner to bail,
himself in 1001., and two sureties of 50/. each, to
answer the charge.

THE BILIOUS PILLS,

PREPARED by F. NEW BERY and
SONS, are the discovery of a Physician of the
first eminence at the present time. In an extensive prac-
tice for some years he has employed them in the most ob-
stinate Bilious Cases with unvarying success. They
operate principally as a deobstruent and purgative ; they
promote a proper action of the liver in the secretion of
bile, or correct it when in a vitiated state. Obstructions
of the stomach an bowels are gradually retnove,l ; and
by giving tone to the biliary ducts and strength to the
system, they afford relief to those who author from nervous
attacks, sick head-ache, giddiness, indigestion, and gouty
affection.

The Bilious Pills have the name " F. NEWBERY"
engraved in the government stamp on each Box, and are
sold at No. 45, St. Paul's Church-yard ; and by J.

WO RS HIP-STREET.

Isaac Quince, Mary Baker, and Esther Bagshatv,
were on Saturday put to the bar before Mr.
BROUGHTON, on the following charge :
Robertson, an officer of Shoreditch, stated that
on last Good Friday the Virginia Chapel, in White-
chapel-road, was broken into, and several articles
were taken away, such as chairs and books, and that
she school-room adjoining shared the same fate, by
being deprived of every thing worth taking in the
baize, carpets, &c. In consequence of information
he received a few days ago, he proceeded to the
house of the prisoner Quince, who is a reputed
thief, and who has but very lately returned from
transportation, and by a little management, effected
an entry into his house, where he found the.chairs,
carpets, baize, and a clock, all of which have been
identified as the property of the chapel; and in one
of the rooms be found the prisoner Quince in com-
pany with Baker and Bagshaw, and took them all
into custody. In a bucket full of water he found a
quantity of skeleton keys. At the moment he was
about to handcuff the prisoner, the latter said "
it
was all over with him !"
Several witnesses were examined, who swore
positively to the property produced by the officer
as the property of the chapel.
An elderly but respectable looking woman ap-
proached the Magistrate, and stated that the prisoner
Quince ho it appeared had once been respectable),
had been the seducer of two of her daughters, who
had but very lately committed suicide in consequence
of ill usage they hadthe
officer,experienced
corroboratedat his hands.
her
iltestimony,
but observed that on the Coroner's Inquest nothing
was alleged against the prisoner as to ill-treatment.
Prisoner—Your daughters lived with others be-
fore mr—
Mr. BROUGHTO7.I—YOII shall not impugn their
characters now they are dead. What have you to
say in answer to the charge against you of having
the property produced in your possession ? Prisoner
—I know nothing about the things. They were
left to me by one of the girls who died.
Mary Baker acknowledged she had also been se-
duced by the prisoner.—(Here the poor unfortunate
girl burst into tears, apparently convulsed.)
ijagglialY said when the officer came she had not

been in the house many moments, having called
merely to see Baker.
Mr. BaouGwroN, after commenting in strong
terms on the infamy of the prisoner's conduct, told
him he should commit him for trial, but should dis-
charge the female prisoners.--The prisoner was ac-
cordingly committed to Newgate.

constable against the owner of a clothes-shop, to
recover ten guineas as a reward for the recovery of
some stolen dresses.—Phiintiff nonsuited.

DICKENS V. PEDMORE.
This was an action for libel.

Mr. ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated that the plain..
tiff, Mr. Dickens, an attorney, had been employed •
by a Mr. Montague to settle his affairs. The latter,
a gentleman of considerable landed estate, had met
with misfortunes, and the plaintiff, by his direction,
had to reverse an outlawry. While engaged in this•
hu,iness, and arranging his pecuniary affairs, a letter•
was addressed to Mr. Montague, purporting to be
signed by fifteen of his creditors, which informed
him that they would not consent to any arrange-..
ments suggested by the plaintiff, as he was so noto-
riously bad in character, that no one would hold all
communication with him. The Learned Counsel
would prove that the letter was in defendant's hand'
writing, and as there was no justification pleaded,
the only question would be as amount of damages.
The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff-",

for the purpose of admitting an allegation on the
part of the husband), and which was remitted to

the admissibility of a further allegation, which set
forth additional circumstances indicative of continued

WORCESTER. SESSIONS, JuLY 15.

QUICK WORK. Samuel Parker, aged 19,
Richard Hades, aged 14, and Lawroice Harrison,
aged 18, were charged with stealing a coat, waist-
coat, and pair of trousers, the property of J. Smith.
On Sunday morning, about eight o'clock, the pro-
secutor was bathing in the Severn, at the upper end
of Pitcheroft, near this city ; before he went into the
water he noticed two of the prisoners at some dis-
tance, and on coming out his clothes were gone.
He was supplied with a great coat by a person who
came by, and made speedy application to our city
police officer, Orchard, who ascertained that the
three prisoners had gone towards Bronugrove.
Smith set out in pursuit, and, calling to his aid
King, the constable of Bromsgrove, succeeded in
apprehending them on the Lickey, with the clothes
in their possession. On the following day (Mon-
day) they were committed for trial; on Tuesday
true bill was returned by the Grand Jury ; and this
afternoon they took their trial. Harrison was
acquitted; Parker and Hailes sentenced to seven
years' transportation.

SANDFORD V. IRBY.

The part-heard arguments on this appeal were
concluded, and his Lordship promised to give judg-
ment in it on Tuesday.
IRREGULARITY OF PROCEEDINGS.
Mr. BICKERsTETII rose to move for an injunction,
in pursuance to the liberty he bad obtained some

days ago to do so.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was in this motion

also, but it was not in to-day's paper, in which
there were two part-heard cases appointed to be is
gone on with. In these he Is as prepared to proceed. • cot
Mr. HORNE was in the part-heard cases that were tua,
in the paper ; this was not a seal day, and it would stoi
be exceedingly inconvenient if a long new motion 2
were permitted to be opened before the disposal of • Ga
the motions, the facts of which were fresh in the Na.
minds of Counsel. . enE
Mr. BICKERSTETH felt bound to make his motion Al
to-day, agreeably to his permission, unless otherwise Co,
ruled by the Court. ; .1
The 'Amp CHANCELLOR said, that as Mr. Bicker- of
steth had got leave to have his motion appointed Ct
for to-day, prior to the coming on of the cases that nal
now stood in the paper as part heard, he was now mc
entitled to priority. lin
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, Mr. HORNE, and two 441
or three Gentiemensbehind the bar, considered this ,
practice calculated to create great confusion of mind nu
on the part of those concerned in the cases, much 48
unnecessary labour, and inconvenience, and that ho
therefore it would have been much better to have ti
proceeded through the part-heard cases.
Mr. BICKERSTETH then opened his motion in ma
BURTON V. WILSON AND OTHERS, 30
for an injunction, on the part of the plaintiff, to re- so
strain the defendants from opening a communication Isl
from the river Medway into a canal they were en- C,
gaged in cutting, by which, at certain seasons of the P,
year, the plaintiff's ancient gunpowder mills would on
be injured, by a deficiency of water; and also from or
continuing elevations they had made on the parts 01
the banks of the river, calculated to destroy the
mills at flood periods, when it was necessary that th
part of the water should be carried off by existing in
weirs. Pf

FRANCIS V. MATHEWS.

This action was brought to recover upon two
bills of exchange, one of which was drawn by the
plaintiff and accepted by the defendant, and the
other drawn by another party, but discounted by the
plaintiff. The defence set up was, that the whole
was an usurious transaction.
Lord TENTERDEN summed up the evidence, and
the Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff upon both

THE ',UNKNOWN GUEST."

An event of a very singular character at pre-
,
- sent forms the topic of conversation in the
fashionable circles. It seems that a stranger—a
young man quite unknown to any member of the
great world—has been in the habit of attending,
unintroduced, all the most fashionable evening
parties which have been given during the pre-
tit season. The manner in which the adven-
turer gained admission to these splendid enter-
' tfdinnents was this :—He usually watched the
time when parties began to arrive in quick suc-
cession, and entering the hall, either followed
one of them up the stairs, as though he were at-
tached to it, or passed the porter whilst his atten-
tion was occupied with other arrivals. Once
in the rooms, detection is almost impossible,
owing to the large number of persons present.
The discovery took place in the following man-
ner;—The unknown had been dancing with
Lady Selina .I—nn—n, the daughter of the
Earl of L—v—r—l, at a grand patty given by
the Earl of A—g—,n, He asked his partner
to introduce hint to her sister, which she did. At
this moment the Countess of A—g—n observed
him, and asked the Earl who he was. His
Lordship looked at him, and declared that he
did not know him ; and being somewhat stir-
prisrl that neither himself nor his lady was ac-
`,{uainted with him, he determined to ascertain
from himself who he was. His Lordship ac-
cordingly took an opportunity of telling the
stranger that his name had escaped his recollec-
tion. The young man gave a name, and said
that he had been introduced to the Countess by
the late Marchioness of Londonderry. His
Lordship informed his lady of what had passed.
She immediately observed that she had never
been en terms of intimacy with the Marchioness
of Londonderry, and that therefore the state-
onlit must be incorrect. His Lordship's sus-
picions were now aroused. He told the object
of them that the Countess denied that he had
been introduced to her in the manner he stated.
Our hero became confused. He stammered out
that " there must be some mistake:" he would
" call to-morrow and explain it to his Lordship,"
and then left the party. He did not keep
his word, for the Earl of A—g—n has not seen
him since. Two nights after he attempted to
gain admission to a party given by Sir C.
C—k—ll in Piccadilly. As he was passing
before a party, the butler stopped him, and
a.sited for his name. He refused to give any,
kAnl Sir Charles was called down. To Sir
Charles he acknowledged that he had not re-
ceived an invitation, but said he was a gentle
man, as his card would prove, hoped he should
be pardoned for his indiscretion, and was allowed
to depart. The card bore the name of an officer
in the 9th Lancers ; but Sir Charles discovered
next day that the real owner of the title was not
the individual whom he had seen on the preced-
ing night. Since that time the unknown has
never repeated his attempt. What object this
person had—whether he was merely desirous of
enjoying a joke, or contemplated some mitrimo-
nial speculation—remains unexplained.

At this day's market, which was short of Beasts, but
otherwise moderately well supplied, the trade was through-
out rather dull, with Beef and Mutton at an advance of

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY).

ConN-EXCIIANGE.

Last week the arrivals of Wheat, chiefly foreign, were
very large, of other Grain moderate, and of Flour good.
This morning there is not much Corn of any kind fresh
up. The Wheat trade is very heavy to-day, and except
for superfine samples, may be quoted Is. to 2s. per quar-
ter lower than this day se'onight. Bar:ey is scarce, and
unaltered in value. There are more Beans at market than
of late, and this article meets a slow sale to-day, at no
variation in prices. Pease continue to sell very heavily
at tLe late quotations. There is so little doing in the
Oat trade that the prices of last week can hardly be sup-
ported. The Flour trade is heavy, but without altehation
in value,

THUNDER-STORM.

On Friday afternoon last, this town and neigh-
bourhood were visited by a tremendous storm of
thunder and rain. The fore part of the day had
been unusually and oppressively sultry, and soon
after three o'clock, heavy masses of black clouds
were seen approaching from the southward. By
four o'clock day-light was so much obscured, that
many persons had to use candles or gas-lights, in
order to be able to go on with their business.—
Distant thunder was heard sa the clouds approach-
ed, but when they over-canopied the town, the
lightning became more vivid, and the thunder tre-
mendous, the rain, at the same time, pouring down
in torrents. A cessation of thunder occurred about
five, and the day became less dark ; but the rain still
continued with but little abatement. 1 his cessation
was but of short continuance, as if the elements had
paused in their wmath, only to resume their warfare
with renewed vigour; for, before six, the darkness
bad increased to such a degree, that although our
printing-ollice has the advantage of a large sky-light,
in addition to two windows facing the street, the
workmen were under the necessity of using gas.—
The thunder became louder, and so frequent as to
sound like one continued peal; the lightning, in
many instances, appeared like a continuous blaze,
and was very vivid; and the rain came down in
torrents as heavy as before. The damage done in
the town and neighbourhood has been considerable.
A melancholy accident took place at the village of
Alt, beyond Litherland, during the storm. The
electric fluid entered a cottage, by means of the
chimney, and killed a child which was standing near
to the fire-place: a man and- a woman were in the
cottage, but escaped unhurt. The storm raged with
great fury at Preston. The electric fluid came in
contact with the point of a. gentleman's umbrella,
which he held over him in Church-street, and, in
the twinkling of an eye, reduced the thing to
shreds. The gentleman, however, escaped uninjured.
Liverpool Albion.

A rational explanation of the depressed state
of the cotton manufactures in the United States is given
in a New York Paper. So prodigal of credit were the
Cotton-spinners, that weavers without capital were plen-
tifully supplied with yarn ; and Lord LIVERPOOL'S account
ofthe mother country was exemplified, in far more goods
being made than the natives chose to wear, or the mer-
chants ventured to export. The Americans, like the rest
of mankind, appear to be incap able of learning fkotri the
fate of others; and if they profit by their own experience,
it is more than some older nations have done.—Glasgow

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET.-July 23. ...I
The supply of Wheat from the farmers here to-day it'
short, but the arrival up the river is large. Fine free'
qualities have been taken off, to a fair extent, at about I°'
per quarter under last Friday's prices, but there has beo
little or no demand for Old Wheat, or for middling'
scriptions of the last crop, except at very low price ° ,
There are not many Oats offering, and they fully nounY'
tain our last quotations. Beans are dull sale at the rstee:
of last week. We had some quantity of rain the latter:
part of last week ; but since Sunday the weather has be
tolerably fine, and to-day it is very fine and warm, whie",
has contributed much to the dulness of the Corn trade.; 4

BREEDS V. BREEDS.

When the case was called on,
Mr. HORNH said it was one of those over;
grown and monstrous suits, that be really he'
not been able to wade through his brief. fie
hoped, therefore, the Court would allow it to
stand over till to-morrow.
Several other Counsel said they had jp[rob.

jection.
SOLICITOR GENERAL—I have a very great
objection, and shall insist upon its going on ;
time is as much engaged as any one's, yet I al°
prepared.
VICE CHANCELLOR—I cannot put it ofd' Una
less all the Counsel consent.
Mr. HINDE—It would save a great deal 0r
the time of the Court if we could have a con'
sultation before the cause is argued. It was not
expected it would have been called on to-daY•
VICE CHANCELLOR—I cannot put it off•le
Mr. HORNE—Never mind, we can very easi
occupy the Court until it rises, and have a COP
sultation afterwards.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL thought SLJCIt
observations not very respectful.
The case was then proceeded with.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
FLINN V. 'MAIN.
This was an action to recover from. the wider'
writers at Lloyd's the sum of 8001., on a policy
of insurance effected on the ship Andromache'
which was engaged to convey a cargo of rock'
salt from the port of Liverpool to Norway.. DI
vessel, in going round Scotland was so injure
by severe weather, that the crew, to save then'"
selves, ran her on shore, escaped from the Plc'
and in the next minute the vessel, to use the
words of one of the witnesses, " went down
a stone."
Evidence was adduced of the vessel's bei9g
seaworthy when she sailed from Liverpool. 1
Mr. BROUGHAM contended for the defend'
ants that the vessel was not seaworthy, that s•:s
had carried more rock-salt, a most, dangerlo
cargo, than was warranted by the terms of to
policy, and that the vessel would have sunk. fr° 0
being overloaded, even if she had not been rn
on shore. The underwriter had refused to
sure so old a vessel, if she carried a full argl;
but the owner answered that she was only to te
fifty or sixty tons merely to keep her in ballt,as
the insurance was effected, and the vessel, insteaA
of taking fifty or sixty tons, took one hundrre
and sixty tons. Under these circumstances, n.fr
trusted the Jury would not award the plain°,
the sum insured.
The Learned Counsel called witnessesto prole
these facts. rd
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL replied, L 0 a
TENTERDEN summed up, and the Jury foul'
for the plaintiff, damages 1001.

VAUXIIALL GARDENS.—On Saturday night
last, the juvenile fete, which had been twice postponed on
account of the unfavourableness of the weather, took place
at these gardens. They were completely filled with visiters,
of whom perhaps three-fourths were children ; and it was
a most interesting and pleasing sight to see so many little
boys and girls decked out in their finest holvday garments,
unable to contain the joy they f lt, and actually screaming
with delight. The amusements were over in good time,
considering the age of those for whom they were intended.
They bad all concluded before ten o'clock. Among the
juvenile visiters were the boysof the Royal Military Asylum
at Chelsea. , There were, we understand, between 4,000
and 5,000 persons present.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of English Oats and Foreign Wheat are good,
but of other descriptions of Grain the quantities are small.
There is a fair arrival of Flour. The fineness of the weather oc-
casions the Wheat trade to be dull, and although the factors are
firm in their demands, yet there are few buye,s here who will
comply with Monday's prices. Barley is unaltered. New Beans
continue ,carce, and fine samplei meet a ready sale. Pease are
as last reported. There is a sl,ck sal:, for Oats to-day, at the
same prices as last reported. The Flour trade is dull.

SUGAR DUTIES BILL

On the motion of Mr. G. DAwsoN, the Order of
the Day for the second reading of this Bill misread.
Mr. BERNAL protested against the continuance
of the duty on West Indian sugar.
Mr. HUME said that the revenue would gain by
re.incing the duty on West India sugar.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
l=aid that in his view of this subject, the situation of
the finances of the country would not justify him in
making the experiment of reducing the duty.
R. GORDON said that the present duty on
,East India sugar was a war duty, and that the
Vest Indian proprietors were -the only persons who
had not benelitted by the transition from war to
peace.

The Bili then read a second time. To be
committed on Monday.

CONSOLIDATED FUND BILL.

On the motion of Mr. G. DAwsoN, the Order of
the Day for the second reading of t Ids Bill was read.
Mr. HUME complained that t tis Bill went to
add confusion to the public accounts, which the
Ministers had promised to simplify.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said that the Act must he passed, or a dis-
eretiouary power given to Government, which he
w::s sure the Hon. Member would not agree to.
After a few words from Mr. MABERLY the Bill
was read a second time.—To be committed this day.
EXCHEQUER BILLS' FUNDING BILL.

On the motion of Mr. G. DAWSON, the (Mier of
the Day for the second reading of this Bill was read.
:41r. HUME took this opportunity of again ex-
pressing his protest against this ruinous transaction.
After a few words from the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, Mr. MABERLY, and Mr. P. THoMP-
SON, the Bill was read a second time.—To be com-
mitted this day.
