LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 9, 1827.

We received, last night, all the French Papers
of Tuesday, and the Gazette de France dated
Wednesday morning ; and we have • inserted
amongst our extracts the Royal Ordinance, to
which we alluded yesterday, for the creation of
76 new Peers, which appeared in the Moniteur
of the 6th-.' In this batch are included, five
Archbishops, two Marshals of France, and some
of the warmest supporters of Ministers in the
Chamber of Deputies : the remainder are prin-
cipally Noblesse of the Provinces, few of whose
names or titles are known in this country. The
dignity of Peer is with respect to these persons
to he hereditary, only on condition of their insti-
tuting a Majorat, or attaching property to the
Peerage, producing a net revenue of at least
10,000 francs, a sum equal to about 4001.
sterling per annum The effect of this enormous
creation of Peers must he to lessen the dignity
and consequence of the pre-existing Peers ; and,
if the system is extended much further, the Peers
of France will possess as little distinction or in-
fluence as the numerous Noblesse under the
ancient Regime. The policy too of attempting
to maintain an unpopular Ministry, by the addi-
tion of a third to one estate of the Realm, at
" one fell swoop," is more than questionable,
and France will eventually have to lament that,
for the temporary purpose of over-reaching an op-
position in the Upper Chamber, men have
been admitted amongst her hereditary Peers, who
are neither qualified by personal abilities to be
useful members of the legislature, nor by the
possession of great wealth to maintain the dig-
nity of their station. The immediate cause
of this measure will probably be explained to
tw in a few days, when the Papers begin to
feel the possession of that freedom which they
may use in the discussion of political sub-
jects, during the non-existence of the Chambers;
but the Ministry are evidently determined to
lessen the duration of this period of liberty as
much as practicable. The time afforded for the
election of the Deputies of the most distant pro-
vinces scarcely admits of deliberation on the part
of the Electors, and all the engines of the Go-
vernment have been at work to secure the return
of Ministerial favourites. Still it is supposed
that M. VILLELE will lose strength. And we
may almost hope that another such appeal to
public opinion, notwithstanding all the exertions
of the Court, may emancipate France from the
degrading state of slavery in which, as far as re-
lates to the discussion of political subjects by the
Press, the nation is held.
The Gazette de France states that letters from
Vienna mention that the Russian Ambassador
at that Court had,obtained leave of absence, and
was going to Russia; the Charge des Affaires, how-
ever, remained. This departure of the Minister,
during the negotiations relative to the affairs of
the East, has, it is said, produced much sensation

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

WORCESTER, Nov. 7.—On Saturday 530 pockets were
weighed in our market ; the sale was dull, at a reduction
of 3s. to 4s. per cwt. The supply was
.larger than the
demand.

How TO WASH SALADS.—" The idea hav-
ing been suggested," says a correspondent of the
Gardener's Magazine, (just published), " to my
master, by Mr. BROWN, of Dalkeith, of having
a tub of salt water frOm the sea, and steeping
them a few minutes in that : we immediately
adopted his advice, and succeeded perfectly in
detaching every thing of the animal kind from
the leaves. My mistress was so much pleased
with the thing, that she has since had every kind
of salad washed in this way, especially such as
grow close on the ground, and are apt to have
worms and slugs gathered with them. We have
even had small red flies and caterpillars. After
the vegetables remain three or four minutes in
the salt water cistern, whatever is in them comes
out, and is seen writhing and dying in the water,
just as worms come out of the ground and die
on the surface, after a watering with lime and
water. The vegetables are then taken out, and
washed with fine fresh water in the usual way.
Salt is now so cheap it will cost very little; as the
same water will last for weeks, the worms, &c.,
being strained out of it.

in. the Austrian capital ; and certainly it is a cir-
cumstance which, whether arising from any secret
misunderstanding or not, between the two
Courts, is well calculated to give rise to conjec-
tures, and to afford employment to all the political

gossips of Europe.
An article from Smyrna, of old date, mentions

the precautionary notice given to Russian sub-
jects residing there—which is an echo of that
which M. DE RIBEAUPIERRE gave to the
Russian inhabitants at Pera.

Brussels Papers, to the 7th inst. were received
last night. Their contents are unimportant.
Various disasters are said to have occurred on the
Coast of Holland, during the storm on the night
of the 31st October, and a report is mentioned
of the loss of a steam-boat, from Amsterdam to
London, but we believe there is no foundation
for this rumour. From the frequent passage
of Cabinet Messengers, through Brussels, it is
inferred that some important negociations are on

It maybe observed, however, that the number of the Jews
must be far greater, and may be taken at more than eight
millions. We have given it at 2,650,000, because that
is derived from authentic sources ; but these are very un-
certain, in Asia and Africa especially. In the same the
number of the Sunnite Altthanimedans may be rated as
exceeding the amount above state,], by nearly 20 millions.

by those of England, where the Act by
which it has been compromised origi-
nated. If a negro, who is free here, becomes
enslaved by returning home, his condition is
worse than if he had never been enfranchised.—
If he continued a slave in England, he could
not be carried back. The Abolition Bill for-
bids any importation of slaves into the West.
Indies, and they are only allowed to be carried
from island to island under certain conditions.
Had Summersett's case, therefore, never been
argued, and had " well made, good tempered
negro boys," still continued to be sold in Smith-
field, as commonly as " chesnut horses and grey
mares," still, under the Abolition Acts, the two.
legged bargains could not have been imported
into the West Indies. And 'surely it cannot be
that the exalting a slave into a free agent makes
him obnoxious to penalties which he could not
incur in his degraded state ? We put the case
on a very short issue. \Vas this woman free
when she landed in Antigua ? If so, is she not
free still ? Was she a slave ? If so, was not
her landing an importation which Mr.
Brougham's Bill has declared to be a felony?
It it said, the slave proprietors would suffer by
a contrary judgment to that pronounced by Lord
Stowell ; perhaps they might. It ought to be
added, that the slaves will suffer, that humanity
will suffer by that judgment. There is flesh and
blood on one side, and perishable possessions on
the other—the cause of liberty and the cause of
gold—God and Mammon. Which is best en-
titled to consideration ?—New Times.

COURT (►P CHANCERY.

Mr. BROUGHAM wished to know whether it
',vas the intention of the Master of the Hells to bring forward the
consideration of the Law respecting the Court of Chancery, on
Tuesday night next ? The Corn Laws were fixed for Monday,
the Catholic Question for Thursday. Each of those debates was
likely to lead to an extended disenesion, and, ;perhaps, to ad-
inurned debates. He was therefore at a loss to account for bring-
ing forward so important a question as that upon the Chancery
Law on the inconvenient evening for which it IN as fixed.
Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that the postponement
from last Tuesday was solely occasioned by his absence from town.
He was to have met the Master of the Rolls upon subjects relating
to the salary of minor officers. He wa.s, however, prevented by
unavoidable absence from town from attending at the appointed
interview, and this was the occasion of the postponement.
[A. short conversation took place across the table, from whici.
we collected, that although the motion respecting the Court of
Chancery might be brought forward on next Tuesday, yet a fair
opportunity would be afforded for discuning the princii.le of the
Bill. Mr. Brougham, Mr. Peel, and the Attorney-General took
part in the conversation.

PROSECUTION OF MR. SHEIL.

At half-past t-u-,1 "'Hock, Sir William Smith, Foreman of the
Grand Jury, appeared in Court with the bills, which had been
found true bills.

At three o'clock, the Attorney-General came into Court, and
addressing their Lordships, said, that in the case of the King
against Richard Sheil, the Bills of Indictment had been before the
Grand Jury, and had been found. It is necessary that the indi-
vidual charged should be now produced by those persons who had
entered into recognizance for him, in order that the time proceed-
ing with the trial may be fixed.
Mr. HOUSES said, that the Counsel of Mr. Sheil were in at-
tendance, and in a few moments Mr. Sheil himself would be in
Court.

In a few minutes Mr. Sheil appeared at the traverser's bar.—
He was accompanied by Mr. Curran.

Mr. HOLMES.-Mr. Shell now attends. It has been stated to
your Lordships that the bills were found. Before we are called
upon to plead to the indictment, we require to be furnished with
a copy of it.
Judge JOHNSON.--You are clearly entitled to a copy of it.
Mr. HOLMES.-Any time the 'Court may think, may be
allowed to the Crown to furnish us with a copy.
Judge JouNsoN.—Perhaps you can have it now. If you get
it to-day, will you be ready to put in ',Our plea to-morrow ?
Mr. Hotmrs—Yes, my Lord.
The ArronNZT-GENERAL-1 believe, my Lords, that by the
16th of the late King, Mr. Shell is not entitled to a copy of the
indictment before he pleads.
Mr. Hot.mrs—After appearance he is entitled to it.

Mr. PERRIN read the section of the Act, which was to the
effect, that all prisoners charged with misdemeanours shall be fur-
nished, if they so require, with a copy of the indictment against
them, after appearance.
A copy of the indictment was here furnished by the Crown
solicitor to Mr. Sheil's Counsel. The indictment itself fills no
less than forty folio sheets of parchment.
Judge Jour:sox—Mr. Holmes, when will poi: be ready?
Mr. HoLuis—To-morrow, my Lord, at the sitting of the
Court.

Judge JolitzsoN—Then we shall adjourn the Court to ten
&clock to-morrow. Mr. Sheil shalt, in the mean time, stand out
upon his original recognizancert.
Mr. SHEIL bowed to the Court, and, accompanied by his
Counsel, withdrew.

SLAVE TRADE IN THE MAURITIUS.

Mr. F. BUXTON, in rising to move for the Com-
mittee of which he had given notice, said, that as the subject had
been already discussed in all its details, and as he did not antici-
pate any opposition, he would content himself with merely =r-
ing for the appointment of a Select Committee, to inquire whether
the Slave Trade hat existed in the Mauritius—to what extent—
and to what reason it is to be attributed.
Mr. W. HORTON begged the Honourable Gen-
tleman not to press the appointment of such a Committee in the
absence of his Right Honourable Friend the Secretary fur Foreign
Affairs.

Mr. F. BUXTON expressed his surprise, that
after the Right Honourable Gentleman had, nearly nine
months ago, declared his opinion in favour of inquiry, and declared
the, after the charges he had heard, a Parliamentary inquiry
ought to take place, there should be any opposition or hesitation
In consenting to the appointment of a Committee. As there was
no opportunity, however, of any immediate correspondence with
that Right Hon. Gentleman, he would consent to postpone his
motion for the present, upon the consideration of the Hon. Secre-
tary consenting to reply to two, or even one question. In case
it was not the intention of the Government to send out a Com-
mission, the Hon. Memktr observed, as we understood, that he
had an equally strong objection to a Commission at home; and he
begged, therefore, to ask what ryas the intention of Government
'lna the subject ?
Mr. W. HORTON replied, that he was not pre-
pared to give a perfectly satisfactory explanation' of the matters
referred to by the Hon. Member, in the absence of his Right
Hon. Friend (Mr. Canning.) He was not, however, aware that
it was the intention of Government to send out a Commission to
the Mauritius; and as to a Committee at home upon the subject,
i•t was not, in his opinion, by say means likely to be productive
of beneficial results.
Mr BUXTON then withdrew his motion.

Mr. WARBUR'CON took that opportunity t>.i
repelling the attack made by .the Hon. and, Learned Gentlemen
on the hard hearted political economists.'
Mr. HUME said, he had a petition to present. from
the Operative Silk Weavers of Macclesfield ; but as it contained e
passage which might possibly be deemed informal, ha would reed
it to the House. It consisted in an allusion to the speech of the'
Noble Mover of the Address in the Upper House. The pt.&
tioners observed, that the Noble Lord had stated the operatie*
classes Were sensible that their distres;es originated in causes over
which man had no contreiul. The Honourable.
_Gentleman wag
proceeding with the passage, when he.waa" interrupted krFrito of
"Order." . _

The SPEAKER said, the Hon. Member had read
enough to prove that the petition was inailmissihla.
Mr.-HUME remarked, that the allusion was to tht,
proceedings* of the other House.
The :SPEAKER-L-And it is precisely that, reattot±
which makes it grosser. The Rouse, however, will form its met
judgMent. on the case. The rule to which I refer is fourde(f.
one of the most important principles. Its object is to preeerr,
the freedom of debate and the privileges of this anise, which,
as it will not suffer_ any interference on the part of. the.l.ords
with its own proceedings, will not, for that. very reason, inter-
fere at all with their's. The question is simply,
.whether this
allusion brings the petition within tilt scope of the.general rule ?
Mr. HUM said, that after the explanation from
the Chair, he felt it his duty to withdraw the petition. Tireflen.
Gentleman then presented a petition from the Inhabitants of
Leslie, in Fifesbire, complaining of great distreas, and praying for
the repeal of the Corn Laws ; arid another to the, same effect, from
the Weairers. Odle Corporation affeithi. • •

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-110USE.—Bail was yesterday given for the gooe
behaviour of the Rev. Robert Taylor, charged with blasphemy.—
The bailsmen are a potatoe dealer of Deptford and butcher of-
Wa!worth. The Rev. Gentleman at first refused to comply.with
the required terms, as they might prevent him from addressing.hix
congregation upon the plea, that by so doing he departed,fronr
good behaviour. The bail seemed also under great apprehen'-
sion in this respect ; and the Lord Mayor informed him that if
at any time previous to the prisoner taking his trial, he offended
again in the manner charged against him, their recognizance* would
be est reated. The trio then took their departure in the utmost dismay.
CHARGE or EMBEZZLEMENT.....-• Owen. Rainier, who Ta;tely.
a situation in the Post Office, was charged with en:beading
a 51. note, contained in a letter. He was remanded for a creek
at the request of his friends.

CHARGE OF MURDER.

Michael Brown, John Cavanagh, Michael Conway, and
Garrett Cavanagh, were indicted for the murder of Nicholas
Donna, on the 30th of December last.

The first witness examined was Thomas Donna, brother of
deceased. From his testimony it appeared that he and his bro-
ther had been in Dublin on the 30th of December ; they returned
together in the evoning, on their way home to Clondalkin ; he
parted with the deceased at Dottlewaithe's public house on the
Circular-road, near Kilmainham ; his brother overtook him on
the road ; his face was cut, and one of his eyes almost thrust out ;
previous to that the four prisoners had passed witness ; when they
came up to their father's house the witness and his brother went
in and provided themselves with sticks ; tbey then ran after these
men who had beaten his brother ; witness Arid came up to John
Cavanagh, and witness was then stabbed by another of the pri-
soners with a fork in the breast ; witness immediately knocked
Cavanagh down with a stick ; when witness turned about he saw
his brother fall, who cried, " Oh ! murder, I am killed ;" three
of the prisoners ran after witness down the road, when he met his
other brother; when they saw him they ran back to their cars
and went off; his deceased brother was dreadfully cut on the
head ; he lived but five weeks.
Michael Conway was acquitted, and the other three prisoners
found guilty of Manslaughter.

ARTIFICIAL TEETH—LEICESTER-SQUARE.
MR. WARREN, Surgeon Dentist, begs to
call the attention of the Nobility and Gentry to
his infallible principle of supplying deficiencies of the
Mouth, whether of the Teeth, Gums, or Palates, arranged
on Gold, Mineral, or Sea-horse substances, from a single
Tooth to a complete set, without pain or inconvenience to
the wearer ; and invites the most difficult cases in proof of
his superior system of fitting. Mr. W.'s terms will be
found consonant with the circumstances of the applicant,
and no charge will be made unless by the full and entire
satisfaction of the patient.
Mr. W. also informs Medical Gentlemen qualifying for
country practice, or that of Tropical Climates, that he
continues to give Monthly Courses of Instruction on Dental
Surgery, combining Cleansing; Stopping, Exercising, Ex-
tracting, &c. &c., and including the manufacture and me-
thod of supplying oral deficiencies, on the most modern
and scientific principles, as practised by the first Dentists
in London and Paris.-7, Leicester-square.
London, England, 1827-08-25

shipping houses were still quiet, and a good Fortin
of the business was amongst our dealers and 'epee*,
lators. There was a fair spirit in the sale, and Ben-
gals were the most attractive, going off at our full
previous market currency, which was about ed. per
lb. above the Company's last sale. The Surat
holders were a little tob expectant, or they might
have parted with almost every thing at the Com-
pany's last sale prices, but not higher.
PIOVISIONB.—There is a little Beef left on the
market for sale. Pork is little varied. The arrivals
of Bacon and Butters have been extensive.

RLrr, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There were
considerable sales of fine Jamaica, early in the week,
4s. 2d. and favourite marks 4s. 6d. The chief at-
traction for the last day or two. is Leeward Island
Rum, on account of the market receiving an ad-
ditional impulse from the Government contract for
100,000 gallons of Rum being advertised ; purchases
cannot now be made on so low terms as early in the
week by about Id. per gallon; a little over proof
and proof at 2s. 3d. and many holders will not sell
even at this advance. In Brandy or Geneva there
is no alteration.
TOBACCO.—There has been a sale of 60 hhds.
middling Virginia leafy Tobacco, at 3/d. we believe
for the Mediterranean, and there appears to be more
buyers for the same quarter.
RlCE.—Rice is rather lower; Carolina, 375.;
Bengal low white, 13s.

SALTPETRE.—Considerable transactions are re.
ported about 245.

INDIGO.—The Indigo market remains quiet; the
few sales lately reported are at 4d. to bd. per lb.
premium on the India House prices.

EAST INDIA SALES, 22n. INsT.

COFFEE.—Mocha, 642 bales, Company's, taxed
at 90s. • 118 sold at 90s. 6d.; remainder refused.
Ditto, lcensed, 355 bales, of which 146 bales fair
quality, taxed at 755. refused. Remainder fair qua-
lity sold 70s. a 795. Inferior foul and mixed, 635.
