[New Times.-1

The Lord Mayor has recommended to the citi-
zens of London, that the shops should he shut
to-morrow, on account of her late Majesty's fu-
neral. We have it() doubt but that this recom-
mendation will be universally complied with.—
The trading part Gt the community have, as we
understand, very generally expressed their in-
tention to pay that last sad mark of respect to the
memory of a Sovereign who, for above half a cen-
tury, exhibited from the Throne so admirable an
example of domestic virtue: All places of public
business will of course be shut.

[From La Belle Assemblee for the present Month.]

CARRIAGE DttEss.—Round dress of bombazine, elegantly
finished at the border with broad black velvet, surmounted
by a flounce of fine white muslin, headed by a rouleam of the
s.one. Black velvet spencer, with a stykaoir, or half-hand-
kerchief, of mourning shawl manufacture. Bonnet of white
crate, with full plume of black ostrich feathers. Buttii/r./ie
ruff of- fine muslin. 'Black Shamois slippers and gloves.

EVENLNG Daess.—Andalusian robe of black crape, worn
over a black satin slip, ornamented at the byider with crate
flutings. The robe vandykell with black velvet, richly orna-
mented with trimming of twisted crape down each side.—
The sleeves confined at the ,nancherons by a superb knot of
jet. Henrietta ruff of white crape broad beiumeti. Black
velvet toque ornamented with jet, and black cypress feathers.
GE.IlittAL OBSERVATIONS.—The'bonnets are still worn very
large; cypress feathers are more worn tioin we expected.—
Oper.s cloaks of dark grey, lined with black, are in favour at
present for the general mourning, but we prophecy that they
will become too common to be adopted by the higher classes,
by whom they are seldom worn, except at entering the Thea-
tres, or in the eatly-spring and late autumnal season, in an
open carriage.

SALR OF BUONAPARTE'S HORSES.—TATTRR-
SALL'S Repository yesterday exhibited an unusual
assemblage ,oflpersons to witness the sale of the four
brown barouche geldings, which were taken with
the military carriage of the Ex-Emperor 'Napo-
leon, at the battle of Waterloo, and which for
some time have attracted great notice in the me-
tropolis, not only for their steadiness and activity

in itarness, but from the skilfulness and eccentri-
city with whinh they were driven by the Em-
peror's one-armed coachman. The horses, it
seems, are all about twelve years old, and fifteen
hands three high, with tbe exception of one of
them, that being fifteen hands two. They are all
bony, good-cooking horses, but not remarkable
for beauty. They were bought by different per-
sons, and the four were knocked down at 73 gui-
neas. The whole of their harness, Including an
unusually large and heavy saddle for the postil-.
lion, was bought for 21. 14s. A considerable de-
gree of laughter was occasioned by Mr. Tatter-
sall's introduction of the horses, as Bony the first,
second, third, and Bony the last.

in silence, Count Bentinch can only obtain justice from his
Majesty the Emperor.
Nothing more is necessary, and nothing more is desired,
than a declaration from his Majesty, on the prrt of Russia,
that there is nothing to preVent the Count from again enter-
ing into the full enjoyment of his ancient rights over the So-
vereign Lordship of Kuiphatisen.
_ . .

The het stated by the Count, as well as his rights, ak in-
disputable The justice ,of his demand cannot be doubted.
The glory of the Emperor is interested in the question.

to. pass,the remainder :off their days in peace, ow
less the country in danger again calls them 1°

arms. And so fixed and liMited is the service de'
mantled of them, that it would require a regular
law, passed by the Iwo Chambers; to compel theul
to pass the frontiers; they are therefore to all ill'
tents and purposes a regular Militia,,and nothi4
more. We need not add another line to refills
the idle tears and alarm spread by those who
fancy them the elements of a force destined t°
overrun Europe; the .very idea is en injurious
calumny against the King who alone could order
it, and whose pacific dispositions even his enemies
dare not pretend to deny. To conclude,
highly to the interest of England that Franc°
should have an Army to maintain her indepero
ence. Russia is making rapid strides towards the
west of Europe, she has seized Finland and P°'
land without any other right *than :that of tb°
strongest, and who will say:that when opportil'
nity serves to seize on Sweden, that she will
not do it ? She has robbed Persia of its fine's
provinces. And she has paid An .Englishman
for an account the best be .could giie of
India and the East Ittttisi Company. --R"'
sia is now the friend, but slie-may soon be tb.
enemy of England. We know her desire to leile
her savage hordes farther west. Prussia is bet'
tool, and France alone will be able to. oppose 80
efficient barrier to her prOgresS. As. to Austri"
if we may augur from the heartfelt joy she ex'
pressed on the marriage of NAPOLEON With t"
Archduchess; she can give no security of her tzne•
at a later period, wishing:again to unite the t 0.4
states; and we have a tight to suppose that b'
strengthening herself on the side of Italy is
without a motive, which time will develope...
Hence, under every point of view, the new law
a salutary one, and specially merits. tits fasi-•L'

1.48 FR/NCESS OF WALES V. THE EXECUTORS OF

THE DUKE OF BRUNswICK.
The LoID CHANCELLOR, Shortly after be had
filtered the Court, stated, that lie had read the
Affidavit which had been handed up to him on Sa-
;Way by the Learned Counsel for the defendants.
It was enough at present to say, that in his pi-
that affidavit laid a sufficient ground foro the
:Pi'quetion of the instruments sought for. The
I"endants, he conceived had a right to say, after
to put this affidavit, "We are not obliged
put iu Our answer to the Bill until these doeu-
- "Ns are produced." With regatd to the request
the plaintiff for further time, previous to the
production of the instruments, as far as regarded
the importance of the affidavit, his Lordship had
" objection to its being granted, with the under-
"aniling that the defendant should have an in-
:PTion of the instruments alluded to previous
rßoswer to the Bill. As to the motion
for time on the part of the defendant, he had no
objection to that either.
Sir S. RoMILLY asked to what motion his Lord-
ship alluded
. The LORD CHANCELLOR replied, that the mo-
tion lie meant Was that of the defendants, for a
fortnight's time after the production of the instru-
ments,

Sir S. RottILLY observed, that the order was
1111Perative to produce the instrumen,s, but it was
hot the intention of his Lordship to compel the
klmediale production of them.

Mr. CALCRAFT said, that understanding there

merely move for'the appointment of a CoMmittee,
for the purpose of c►►nsidering the Silt Duties,
and the hest means of providing a remedy for the

itiCollyenicilce resulting therefrom.
Mr. CuriNVFN congratulated the House and the
country uptin the benefits likely to result front the'
appfiintment of this Committee.
Messrs. EGERTON and DAvENPottr concurred
in ae sentiments of the last Speaker, anti express-
ed their thanks to the Chancellor of the Exclic-
Tier for conceding to the motion.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER expressed
his acquiescence in the motion, while he felt the
importance of the laige proportion of revenue. to
which the object of that motion referred.
Mr. CALCRAFT said, that while it was proposed
by this motion to interfere with such an amount
of annual revenue as one million and a half, it
would he absurd to suppose,. that in the present
circumstances of die country especially, such a
revenue could be done away without providing
some substitute. But those points would be taken
into the consideration of the proposed Committee.
The Committee was .appointed. The several
Petitions presented with regard to the Salt Tax,

be saw in what shape the Bill should come out of
the Committee.
Sir S. ROMILLY said, that he did not expect
that the second reading of this Bill would have
been pressed this night. But as it -was now no
doubt intended that the Committee upon it should
sit 10-morrow, and as he intended to oppose the
Speaker leaving the Chair, he should postpoue
his observations till then. But he wished to,
observe, that several notices stood for to-mor-
row, which it would be desirable should be post-
poned if the Indemnity Bill vas to come on.
The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER S3id, be
was by no means _anxious to press his motion re-
lative to Saving Banks (as was understood) which
stood far to-morrow ; he was only anxious that
the Bill should .he printed before the holidays.
Lord FOLKESTONE .said, he would willingly
postpone his motion relative to Gaols, which
stood for to-morrow. lie took this opportunity
of asking the
.Noble. Lord .opposite., . whether he
meant to appoint any particular stage of the Bill
for discussing the subject of Precedents of In-
demnity Bills, on which' he hail challenged the
Noble Lord to-produce any authority but that of
1801 ?•. - , ,
Lord. CASTLEREAGH " said, tie would probably
take occasion, at some stage of the Bill, to offer
to the House his opinion 'upon it, but lie could
not name any precise time. His opinion rela-
tive to the precedents remained unchanged.
The House then divided on the question that
the Bill be now read a second time—

COUNTY FIRE-OFFICE,SOUTILIMPTON-STREET.
RECEIPTS are now in course of delivery, for
the Renewal of Policies, falling due at Michaelmas.—
The Directors take this opportunity to invite a Public Exa-
nainatien' into the principles and- practice of the Office for
which they act. They are proud to declare, that the great
object of Insurance, viz. a prompt and ample indemnity, has
been so invariably yielded by the County Office, that not a
single litigation has ever arisen to disturb the harmony of
Directors and Claimants. This security the Office is enabled
at all times to afford, because,

Ist, The Original Members have provid.d a Capital of
L. 400,000, over and above the fluctuating fund arising from
the premiums ; and because,

'idly, Although such profits as arise are equally divided
among those who insure, the Directors of the County Office
have shunned the delusive and pernicious practice of making
a large return of profit uniform and certain, and of rendering
the payment of Claims dependent on wtat may be left. Their
fixed rule is the payment of all just claims immediately—the
return of profit is left to vary with events.
They have additionally to observe, that as the original Ca-
pital is deuwed of sufficient magnitude for all purposes of se-
curity, it is expressly provided in the Policies, that the sub-
scribers to that fund alone shall be answerable for losses.—
Hence those who insure, while entitled to share profits, are
protected from the liability for the losses of others which has
been so severely felt in societies upon the contrihntionship
or Union principle; and which, together with the difficulty
and uncertainty of procuring restitution, has generally led to
the failure or dissolution of such societies.

THE THEATRE.

DiltrltY-LANG. --- The lively Opera of The
Duenna attracted a very numerous audience !CI
this Theatre, on S,tur idy last. On this occasion
Signora BELL6AR came forward in the part of
Carlo. This Lady was born to better expecta-
tions than the public stage, and her education was
appropriate to her expected rank in life. She is,
we understand, the daughter of Mr. MoatTneaFtt,
formerly a Member of Parliament, and a Gentle-
man of considerable fortune, but who unhappily
sacrificed it in acts of benevolence,and ruinous spe-
culations. SignoraßeLLoaa, atewyears ago,made
a conspicuous figure in the higher musical circles,
where her talents, and attni,ble and unaffected
manners, procured her many fiends. She we•.r
abroad to improve her musical education,
married an in the Spanish service, who died
a few Months after the union, and lett his widow
to subsist upon the exertion of liar abilities. Her
appearance, on Saturday, watt highly gratifying to
the Public,.and the Theatre has reason to rejoice
in such an acquisition. Her face is expressive
and her person well formed. H:r manners are
peculiarly graceful and elegant. So tar as action
is concerned, we never saw the part of Carlos so-
sustained. :Her voice is powerful, and rich
in tone. She sung with feeling and expression,:
and was encored in two of her songs. Her re-
ception wasin all respects highly favourable, and
we should not be surprised to find. that her ta-
lents are not limited to Mere singing characters,
it she eatv be induced to aSpire,et theatrical repo-
ialjolll4.7NDEN, Mrs. SPANKS,
gave. all due, support to Jerome,-Mendoza, and
'Margaret.—Miffs WITH very beautiful young
Lady, a pupil of Mr. AngOota,.a Composer of me-
rited eminence, appeafea in the part of Clara, and
acquitted herself in 0,v07-itroniising manner. Her
" Adieu thou dreary pile," was chiefly admired.
These acquisitions willprobably, in a great degree,
revive the popularity of the Opera, which, in point
of character and dialogue, is tar superior' to most
modern compositions of the-same description.

MILTON V. CARE!.

The plaintiff, who is a horse dealer, brought
this action against the defendant, who is a Cap-
tain in the Horse Guards, for the recoyery of
350/. paid for two horses, which the. defendant
warranted to be perfectly sound. Upon this case
there was, as is usual in a horse cause, a great
deal of contradictory evidence, the witnesses for
the plaintiff deposing that the unsoundness of
the horses existed previous to the sale, while those
for the defendant alleged the contrary.
The Jury found a verdict for the defendant.

OLD BAILEY, DEC. 7.

MORE FORGERIES.
Yesterday Joh74. Dyc was capitally indicted for utteting a
forged Bank-note, knowing it to be forged.
Mr.Slygeant BOSANQUeT stared to til6-Jury, that the pre-
sent prosecution , rested principally on the testimony of the
witness whose evidence had Green given on a former trial
(Williams's). Ile observed; that when the testimony of
witness, however culpable, was confirmed in the main points
by other persons of respectable character, the Jury were
bound to credit it. Since Saturday, when this witness was
examined, the case of the prisoner at the bar • had been con-
sidered. As no evidence could be adduced in corroboration
of this witness (Underwood), whose character had been im-
pugned, he should not detail the case to the Jury.
The prisoner was accordingly Acquitted.
William Howard was also indicted for uttering a forged
11. note to Elizabeth Macpherson, knowing it to be a forgery,
The evidence against this prisoner was very slight. It con.
sisted in the testimony of the prosecutrix, who proved the cit.—
cumstance of the uttering. -
Mi. Glover, one of the Inspectors of Bank-notes, was
called, and gave the same testimony as he had done in the
case of Williams, on Saturday, regarding' the private marks
on the Bank-notes. The forged note uttered by the prisoner
was not similar to the genuine Rank-notes in respect to the
water-mark and stereotype in particulars but in all respects
it was a forgery.
The signing clerk was also called, and proved the signature
was nut his writing.

The Jury, Iroweier, not thinking the testimony sufficiently
strong, acquitted the prisoner.
Of the three prisoners brought up for forgery this Session
by the Baulk, all hare been acquitted by the Juries.

Vri:;Sl MI NSTErt ELUCTION.

A Meeting of fl,anonst's Friends was
held yesterday evening at the Crown and Aochor
Some Resolutions Were moved by one of the
Ev/ones, in ;Odell, after 'tittering a great deal
about mitgoverninent.,
.he 'vetY coolly and bare 7
facerily reversed the real eircuthstances attending
the late Election in Westminster, stating in fact,
that the bribery, corruption, perjury, and vio-
lence, so notoriously resorted to by the satellites
of RORDETT, were practised only by those Whom
he termed the enemies of freedom ; he concluded
by recommending to their attention, Mr. HOB-
HOUSE, es P prodigy of Reform, and an able coad-
jutor of their leading Vat' BURDITT. Mr. 4011-
HOUSE made a very long and inflammatory speech,
in which he dilated on the miseries of the people,
and appealed to' his audience whether they would
suffer themselsies to be trampled upon by halt a
dozen despicahlenitd ruthless adventniers (mean-
' big the Ministry who have upset hisTriend Biro:
NAPARTE) or assert their own rights. HQ:talked
very pathetically of the unrepresented part of the
community (distinctly avowing his ideas ofUtilrer-
sat Ile alluded to Hu NT, and evidently
wished to conciliate him. He said the Crown
end the Nobles were every thing, the People no
thin;. He abused the cause of Sir MURRAY
MAXWELL, and told his hearers that, its company
with Mr. Mob KIaNAIRD and BRUCE, he went
to condole with Sir MURRAY on the personal in-
jury he bad sustained, but forgot to mention
that the aforesaid Gentlemen, and others of
their tribe, had excited that brutal outrage,
by the tenor of their harangues to the rabble
who were. in their pay around the Hustings. He
launched forth in praise of 'his protector and pa-
trots BURDETT, and spoke of the Patriots who
(previous to himself) had enlightened the Na-
tives, and sounded Reform, in that same
within those very walls ;—but, undutiful man! be
omitted his father in the enumeration.—About
this time, an awkward Hibernian, in' allusion to
the shuffling conduct of BURDETT with respect to
the Corn Bill, asked, in a very broad accent, a
most unlucky question ; namely, ." Whether Mr.
HOEHOUSE meant to support any measure which
had a tendency to raise the price of Coro i" This
question excited loud cheering and laughter,and an
answer being again demanded, Mr. Hotsmouss,
after two efforts to explain, at last said, be could
not judge of any measure moil it came before
him, but be wowld take care that no Government
niractor should
.raise the price of Corn.—The
room was about half full, and, considering all
circumstances, tolerably orderly, except (ram the
inflammatory speeches, ottly two or three drunken
persons being observed.

[Marning Post.]

Two vessels sailed from the River on Friday with
recruits for South Amcrica. The great object of
the Deputies fr,ra the Independent Governutents is
to procure the disciplined troops now. discharging
from the Brirish service, and for the present all
others are refused by them. This is a most serious
fact, and well worthy of official attention. In the
City thegener4l. feeling seems byno means favour-
Ride to the cause of the Independents. Nor a single
we are assured, has yet been subscribed
to their proposed loan.

[lWe," Time ]

r (Inds felt a slight depression yesterday,
for which no reason was very dbvlons. Some
persons, however, were inclined to attribute it to
the acquittals of the forgers, who were tried
on. Saturday and yesterday; and it was urged that
the principle adoped by the Juries on those oc-
casions was one which held out the greatest .'pos-
sible incitement to crime, and went to the utter
destruction of the retail trade of the country.
We do not pre►end to give an opinion on this
point ; but we feel convinced that if such con-
sequences are likely to ensue the evil must. spee-
dily cure itself. The retail shopkeepers will feel
the hardship most severely ; and it will never
be endured that this industrious and valuable
class of the community shall be left a prey to
the nefarious arts of a set of miscreants who
are encouraged in their audacity by a confidence
in the false lenity of the tribunals. Juries them-
selves will be the first to correct any error into
which they may have been led on this subject
by the factions newspapers, which cloak their
wish to disturb the proceedings of Government
under the specious pretence of liberality. On the
other hand, nothing surely can be easier than
for the Bank to adopt some improvement on the
present execution of Bank notes. Their atten-
tion lots been long directed to this subject ; but
probably they hesitate to adopt any of the vari-
ous methods suggested, because each is liable to
some objection or other. Lint it should be remem-
beivd, that the aim is not to render Bank-notes
incapable of imitation ; for that perhaps is beyond
human ingenuity ; but to render them less easily
imitable than they are at present. This is in fact
the case very generally with the country Bank-
notes, as compared with those of the Bank of
England ; and the consequence is, 'hat forgery
of such notes is very rate indeed in England, and
scarcely known in Scotland.
