ESTATE AND HOUSE-AGENCY OFFICE, No. 93

• B HOPSG ATE- STREET-WITHIN.
HENRY L. COOPER, in submitting to
his Friends the public ttion of his Register for the
present month, is happy in bring able to state that, after
having already disposed of a much greater number of pro-
perties than on any former season, and from the patronage
his Agency Establishment has found with the Public, he
has still the opportunity of laying before them a list of
Houses and Estates, which few competitors can exceed,
either in value, importance, or variety, and in situations
which comprise most of the counties in England, thereby
rendering it almost impossible but that patties, either as
buyers or sellers, at the reasonable value of the day, may
both be accommodated. An engagement of upwards of
forty years in the upholstery department, on the same spot,
will, it is presumed, be a sufficient guarantee for his inte-
grity and responsibility ; and when the locality, as to situa-
tion, is considered, being in the immediate vicinity of the
Bank of England, Garraway's, and the Auction Mart (the
resort of the monied and landed interest of the country),
presents facilities peculiar to this establishment for effecting
immediate and advantageous sales, at the fair marketable
value of the day, of whatever interests may be committed
to his care.

N.B.—Noblemen or Gentlemen desirous of taking a pro-
fessional opinion will be waited on at their residences or
estates.-93, Bishopsgate .strtet-within.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

MainsTowx, JULY 14.—With the exception of a few
favoured spots, the Hops have been daily getting worse
since our last—the continual rains having much increased
the vermin, and so much confirmed the blight, that the
quantity grown must be very short. From other parts
our accouP.ts are much worse.

CANTERBURY, JULY 13.—The Hops of this neigh-
bourhood and East Kent have not improved ; on the con-
trary, the severity and extent of the blight is now con-
firmed .come what weather triay,:an average of not more
than a pocket per acre can reasonably be expected.

Sir WALTER SCOTT, in company with the
CHIEF BARON and some other gentlemen, paid a visit to
Falkland on Monday week. The appearance of the dis-
tinguished Baronet in that ancient seat of royalty gave rise
to as many conjectures among the town's folk, as.a visit
from the Gudeman of B.►llengiech would have done among
their ancestors. It was surmised by some that a new novel
was on the tapis, in which Falkland was to have the
honour of furnishing the hero, and Fife the scenery ; by
others that Sir WALTER bad been sent by the KING to
ascertain if it was really true that the ruins at Falkland
had again assumed an appearance worthy of one of the
Scottish palaces: and some supposed that other improve-
ments are projected by the present liberal proprietor, still
farther to grace the national associations of his domain,
and in which he desired the opinion of the first of Scottish
literati and antiquarians. Of course the mystery remains
unsolved ; and as the author of each conjecture remains
convinctd of the correctness of his own, we hope they may
be all in the right.—Fife Herald.

GRAND ROWING MATCH

Yesterday the Gentlemen of the Thames Navil,ation
Committee gave a handsome Wherry and Prizes, to be
rowed for by eight Watermen, opposite the Duke of Hue-
cleugh's, at Richmond. The day was extremely propitious,
and the company numerous and respectable. The Thames
Navigation barge was crowded with spectators of high re-
-pectability, and a uumher of the most opulent inhabitants
of Richmond, Petersham, and parts adjacent, honoured the
scene with their presence. The following were the com-
petitors :

FIRST DRAT. SECOND HEAT.
J. Veal, Petersham, white W. Spratt, Westminster, pink
G. Redknap, Twickenham, blue C. Campbell, ditto, yellow
E. Brown, Richmond, scarlet W.Prizeman,Blackfriars, orange
W. Bell, Richmond, green J. Wyld, Lambeth, purple
The distance rowed was from buoys mowed off the
Tla

__lames Navigation barge, stationed off the Duke of Bue-
cleugh's, round a boat moored in Horse Reach, down
through the centre arch of Richmond bridge, and back to
the place of starting. After three good heats, the boat
was won by Campbell, of Westminster.

Mr. KEAN'S PRIZE WHERRY.

On Tuesday evening a numerous meeting of some of
the first Amateurs and Waterinen on the river took place
at Alr. Welch's, the Bull's Bead, in Hungerford-market,
for the purpose of balloting for the privilege of rowing for
the elegant Prize Wherry given by our celebrated trage-
dian. Edmund Kean. _ _

The wherry, which is now nearly completed, is build-
ing by Sullivan of Millhank. It is to be christened the
Phoenix, and is the sixth boat given by the same gentle-
man, as an encouragement to the industrious watermen.
The boat will, as on former occasions, be contended for by
seven pair of oars. The ballot, in which 62 watermen
were allowed to take their chance, was declared to be in
favour of the following men, whose names are given in the
order in which they are to attend :
David Eld Old Swan Stairs Henry Jones ...Vauxhall
C. Campbell Lambeth Robt. Evans ...Whitehall
Geo. Wild Hungerford Wm Dolwin ...Horseferry
Thos. Vokins Thos. Dodd Hungerford
J. Braithwaite...Bankside K Brummell Old Swan
W. Windsor ...Westminster Br. G. Salloway VauxhalL

W. Moulton —.Lambeth
➢lost of the above are crack watermen, and one of the
most interesting contests of the season is expected to take
place on this occasion. The 23d of July is the day named.
The company partook of liberal entertainment at the ex-
pence of the amateurs, after the balloting had terminated,
and the utmost conviviality prevailed until a moderately
late hour. The viands and liquors provided were of the
best quality. The match will be under the direction of
Mr. White, the engineer of the British Fire.office.

CLERKENWELL IMPROVEMENT BILL.

The House resolved itself into a Committee of
the whole House, on the Clerkenwell Improvement
Bill. Report ordered to be received, and the Bill
engrossed.

SMITHFIELD MARKET.
Mr. BYNG presented a petition from Hendon,
against the Bill for enlarging Smithfield Market.
Mr. PROTHEROE presented petitions from
the parishes of St. James, Clerkenwell, and Har-
row, praying that the days of holding Smithfield
market might be changed from Monday to Tuesday.
Mr. GORDON considered this a tit subject foe
the attention of his Majesty's Ministers. It would
be impossible, if the days were not changed, that a
proper observance of the Sabbath could be enforced.

- After a few observations from Mr. LENNARD
and Sir THOMAS FREMANTLE, the petitions were
ordered to be printed.
Mr. HUSKISSON presented a petition from
the Ministers, Churchwardens, and Overseers of
the Poor of a Parish in Liverpool, praying that that
part of Mr. Slaney's Bill now before the house, re-
specting the employment of, able-bodied men, might
pass into a law.

CITY MARKETS-TWO O'CLOCK.

SCGAR.—The delivery of Plantation Sugars for home
consumption last week from the West India Docks was
3,000 casks, but as about 4,000 hhds. were landed, the
stock remains about the same as in the previous week, viz.
12,200 hhds. and 940 fres. The Sugar and Coffee Mar-
kets evince more firmness to-day than of late.
Hors.—The accounts from the Plantations to-day are
more favourable, owing to the late change in the weather.
Rust.—The stock is rapidly increasing : yesterday it
exceeded 15,000 puns. The delivery last week was 433
puns., 133 of which were for exportation. Prices heavy.
BALTIC PuonucE.—Tallow continues to improve, and
extensive business is reported at from 38s. 6d. to 3Ss. 9d.
per cwt. The delivery last week was 956 emits, and the
stock is 11,700 caAs. The commercial accounts from St.
Petersburgh are to the 25th ult., at which time the Ex-
change on London was at 10d.ii. Tallow there was at
97 rubles ; the purchases were small.

The Wool Trade continues in a very heavy state, and
the advices from the country to-day state that trade in
woollen goods was worse than ever. There have been
many foreign orders in the market for manufactured goods,
but the sales completed were at so low a price as scarcely
to pay for the raw material. Some faint hopes are in-
dulged that a Parliamentary inquiry may be again insti-
tuted in the trade.

CorroN.—Although the accounts from Liverpool men-
tion that the sales last week were pretty considerable, yet
the prices continued heavy. A private letter of Sunday
says—,, I never in my life recollect a period in the cotton
trade when the holders suffered so much from the depres-
sion in prices as at present."

We understand that at the close of the present
season, a theatrical company, composed of Mr. CHARLES
KEMBLE, Mr. Ec sitzoN, and others of Covent-garden
Theatre, will set out on a professional tour in Germany, and
thence to Paris, so as to fill up the recess. The assist-
ance of Miss SMITHSON has been secured, and the name of
that lady on the Continent is of itself a tower of strength :
it is is probable that the speculation will prove successful.
We understand that Sir N. TINDAL has been
appointed Attorney-General. The election for Cambridge
will, probably, take place next week. Mr. BA NKES, 11110
was expected to oppose Sir N. Tx/4p4L, is now a Alember
of the Government,.—Morninp paper.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
BUTLER V. KYMERSLEY.
The Court was occupied the whole morning with
this part-heard case, the argu►nents in which were
not concluded when we left.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
CHAMBERS V. WATERS.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR on taking his seat this
morning addressing Mr. Bickerstetli said, since this
heavy case was last before the Court, he had most
carefully read over all die papers and documents, l►e
would not therefore trouble the plaintiff's Counsel
any further but should wish at once to hear the de-
fendant.

Mr. BICKERSTETII was much obliged to his
Honour for this intimation, he would therefore only
call the attention of the Court to one or two facts
which he considered most important.
Mr. HORNE (Counsel for the defendant) must
protest, after what had fallen from the Court, that
the plaintiff's Counsel should be heard any further
except in reply. At the same time he must observe,
he was surprised at the turn the case had taken,
and was scarcely prepared to go on.
VICE-CHANCELLOR,Who are the Counsel em-
ployed for the defendant ?

Mr.
BICKERSTETH—Oh ! a great number, your
Honour. There is Sir Chas. Wetherell, Mr. Horne,
Mr. Pepys, Mr. 1 reslove, Mr. Beecher, Mr.
Wheatley, and two or three others. They muster
very strong, but a strong case will beat the strongest
Counsel.

Sir CHARLES WETHERELL here entered the
Court, and, after a few minutes spent in arranging
his papers, commenced his arguments for the de-
fendant, and was speaking when our Reporter left.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

Edmund \\Talker, Esq. took the oaths of alle-
giance and supremacy upon being appointed a Master
in the Court of Exchequer, after the ceremony he
walked across the table, (according to aticient
custom) and presented each of the Barons with a
small white silk purse, containing a quantity of
gold coins.

There being no other business before the Court,
their Lordships only sat for a few minutes.

Mr. Sergeant ADAMS now applied for a rule nisi,

EXTRAORDINARY WAGERS.

Wagers have been laid at Maestricht, between some re-
spectable merchants there, to a considerable amount, that
pigeons taken from thence to London, would, when let
loose here, reach Maestricht in six hours. Forty-two
pigeons were brought over in the Attwood steam-packet
on Thursday last, about noon, and were marked i❑ the
course of that day by a person connected with the Dutch
Embassy here, and yesterday morning at twenty-six
minutes past eight o'clock, the time agreed upon, they
were let loose, and proceeded on their aerial voyage. The
principal wager is for 10,0 f 0 guilders ; and it any one of
these pigeons arrives in six hours, the wager is won.
They belong to different persons, forming a society at
Maestricht. The first bird that arrives, even after the
six hours, obtains for its owner a prize of a small
gold pigeon; the second, a silver ditto ; the third,
a dozen silver knives and forks; besides other
prizes. The distance is about 260 English miles, in a
direct line over Ramsgate and Ostend. The man who
came over with the pigeons offered to bet the value of a
cask of wine that one of them would be at Meastricht by
half-past twelve o'clock yesterday; the rain was against
the performance, but the wind was favourable. The
result cannot be known until next week.

ATTEMPT AT RAPE.

BERKSHIRE QUARTER SESSIONS—ABINGDON.
James Allen was indicted for an assault on Eliza
Powevs, at Greenham.
Eliza Powers examined—l live with Miss Can-
field, in Newbury ; f.,he is a dress-maker. I was
sent by her to Greenham about a fortnight ago. I
started between seven and eight o'clock in the even-
ing, to go to the cottage which adjoins the mill. I
went down the Back-lane. There are not houses

all down the lane. I met the prisoner at the bottom
of the Bear-yard; he asked me to take his arm, but
I refused. He then asked to carry my umbrella,
but I also refused. He followed me for a long way,
and asked me would I go into the fields with him,
but I would not. I then went to the house for
some garden stuff. On returning, I saw the pri-
soner near to a stile in Mr. Green's meadows, on
the line of the canal. lie stood out of the path-
way. He came to me, and threw me down. I had
just got through the gate. It was on the meadow
where he pushed me down. I told him I would
tell my mother. I hallooed very much indeed. I
,saw no one, and I don't know that he did—(Wit-
ness here described the offence.)—He hit me on the
mouth, and said he would kill me. He sat by my
side and had hold of me. lie had insulted me

nice before. Two girls were then coming, and he
let me go. He was with me a quarter of an hour.
I got away, and went straight on home; he fol-
lowed me. He attempted to prevent me getting up.
The two girls were coming from Newbury, and
were about three yards from me. I could not see
them for the bank till I got up. Before I got to the
Jack of Newbury yard, I met a gentleman who lives
at Mr. Vincent's ; he looked very hard indeed at
me; my frock was very dirty, and much torn. My
mistress was in the parlour, and the servant seeing
me cry, asked what was the matter; I told her,
and she told her mistrers. The gentleman saw me
crying very much. My mistress came to me, and I
told her all that happened; she sent for my mother
sod father; and Mr. Coombes came. He is a rela-
tion to my mistress.

Cross-examined by Mr. DUNDAS—He did at-
tempt to take liberties with my person when he was
with me.

Mrs. Powers, the girl's mother, corroborated Let
daughter's testimony.

Mr. SHEPHERD, on behalf of the prisoner, was
lot instructed to say any thing in disparagement of

the girl's character ; probably she might be a good
girl, and he hoped she was. He would not attempt
to palliate the violent—the brutal conduct of the
defendant; but it could not be charged that, be-
cause a man chooses to salute a women against her
it was to be construed into an attempt to com-
a-tit one of the grossest offences known to cisilized
society.—Guilty, with intent to commit a rape.

. .
The Noble CHAIRMAN said that the case was one

of a very atrocious nature, aml th4Lsentence of the
Court was that he be imprisoned to'hard labour for
taco years.

LITERATURE.

A SERMON PREACHED IN ST. MARY'S CHURCH,
BEVERLEY, Jur,: 18, 1829.
BY THE REV. J. COURTNEY, M.A.

This is a useful and practical discourse, whose
doctrines, strictly orthodox, are brought down
to the level of common sense. Its chief objects
arc to recommend a decent and orderly simpli-
city, and to dissuade from undue pedantry or in-
tolerance, in all matters appertaining to religion.
We have perused it with much pleasure.
