CLOSING iANIES AT FOUR O'CLOCK. -- The
barkers, it is said, propose to shorten their hours of
business, by closing at four o'clock instead of five.
Have they asked the permission of their customers ?
At present they are compelled to keep open, and
honour all, cheques upon them till five o'clock, and it
is even doubted whether they can then legally refuse
payment. It is, however, certain that they could not
refuse payment between four and five o'clock, with-
out committing an act of bankruptcy. Their deter-
mination to close at four o'clock, unless they have the
assent of their clients, cannot make a new custom and
alter this legal obligation. To make the practice of
closing at four o'clock a • good legal custom, it must
be established for some time, and must be acquiesced
in by those having claims on the bankers. If they '
attempt, therefore, to close at four o'clock, without
obtaining the assent and acquiescence of those who
have demands on them, they will expose themselves,
we apprehend, to very
serious consequences. We
maintain that the custom of keeping open till five
o'clock being once established, it cannot be altered by
the determination of the bankers only. It is, there.
fore, we believe, in the power of those who deal with
them, to prevent the banks being closed before five
o'clock, if they object to the proposed alteration.

CRIPS V. CHAMBERLAIN.

This was an undefended action, by which the plain-
tiff sought to recover from the defendant a sum of 19
guineas. It appeared that the plaintiff was a whole-
sale Tuscan and straw hat manufacturer, and the de-
fendant, Mrs. Chamberlain, who carried on a retail
business in the same line, was a customer of his.
Several dealings had taken place between them, and
at the present moment there was nearly 301. due to
the plaintiff; he had, however, confined his claim to
19 guineas, in order to bring the amount within the
jurisdiction of that Court.
The Jury, after evidence had been given of the
amount of the goods, and their delivery, gave a ver-
dict for the whole amount claimed.

BO R'-STREET.

A respectably attired young man named Adolphus
Stone, who has been several times brought up at this
Court for similar offences, was charged with brutally
and wantonly assaulting Sarah Rudd on the 3d inst.
The prisoner has been remanded three or four times
upon the Doctor's certificate that it would be at the
peril of her life if the complainant were moved.
The prosecutor, who appeared to be labouring
under very great suffering from :pains in the neck
and chest, and whose face and head exhibited marks
of the most brutal ill-usage, stated that on the 3d
inst., about twelve o'clock in the evening, she was
proceeding along St. Martin's-lane, in company with
her sister and a Mrs. Royal. They had all
been to fetch their supper beer. They were
laughing together when some female passed them, and
applying a disgusting epithet to them, asked them
what they were laughing at. Mrs. Royal was about
to reply, when the complainant told her to come on
and have no words with her. Just at that time the
prisoner and another man came up ; the girl before
mentioned said something to him, and he at once
advanced close to the side of the prosecutrix, and
struck her a blow upon the eye, so violent that it
felled her to the ground in an instant, and blackened
both her eyes. -Witness immediately became quite
senseless, and remembered nothing further till
she came to her senses at eight o'clock on the
following morning, when she found herself
at home in bed, with severe bruises all-
over her head and body. She was not conscious of
having been struck by the prisoner whilst on the
ground, but she had been in the greatest pain awl
agony ever since, and had vomitted a great dea of
blood, &c. She never saw the prisoner to her know-
ledge previous to the night of the assault.
Mary Royal, a married woman, residing at No. 3,
Goodwin's-court, St. Martin's-lane, corroborated the
testimony of the prosecutrix.
The certificate of the doctor stated that the life of
the prosecutrix was not yet out of danger, and in con-
sequence Mr. Twyford remanded the prisoner again
till Tuesday.

ance supplied to the defendant. Since the action was
brought the defendant had paid the amount claimed,

AN GLO-SPANIgit-BANK.

The following documents in reference to the mis-
sion of Colonel Bristow, for the establishment of an.
Anglo-Spanish Bank in„ this country, have been pub-
lished in the Madrid Gazette of the 31st ult., received
on Saturday :
" COL. BRISTOW TO THE
MINIS'IIIa OF FINANCE.
" Sir,—Many distinguished Spaniards at present
resident in this capital are aware that the individual
who has the honour to subscribe this address, has in himself much in the fate
, of Spain for seve-
ral years, and that he was one of those who suffered
in the disastrous events of 18-3. Placed in circum-
stances, also, during the War of independenceto form
an opinion of the Spanish character, he
never lost for
a moment the hope that : Spaniards would at length
secure that system which they had adopted.
0
" The grand event of the autumn ti
1839 (Treaty
of Bergara) convinced him that
this hop
always be
was not to
be long deferred. The struggle which be
lieved to have been inevitable, rapidly hastened to a
close, and he consequently lost not
a moment in
adopting those measures which he considered best cal-
culated to produce the favourable results he antici-
pated. He consulted with Spaniards well acquainted
of their country, and
with the wants and circumstances m
also with some of his.own country
en,. who were ready
and able to carry into effect whateverresolutions were
come to.
" The elevation of that distinguished individual
(the Duke de la Victoria) to power in 1841, who so
worthily presides over the Spanish nation, re-esta-
blishedconfidence
shaken by previous occurrences, and,
who subscribes
after long and due deliberation between the person
this and those -whom he represents,
both agreed that at the formation of the present Spa-
nishcome
Ministry the tithe was to advance in their
projects. .
" The present Spanish GovernMent, composed al-
most entirely of gentlemen well known in Great
Britain, and highly esteemed there, give a guarantee
to their countrymen with respect_ to their conduct, while
the public services in which they have been engaged
dispel all doubtsas to the soundness of their intentions.

EN GLISH OPERA HOUSE.

In consequence of the accident which happened to Mr.
Carter on Tuesday, the drama of Therese was substittited
for the Lion King at this theatre on Thursday evening,
on which occasion Miss Montgomery, late of the South-
ampton Theatre, made her first appearance befbre
London audience in the character of Therese. This
young lay possesses every requisite for success in the
career which she has chosen. Her person is command-
ing, and her countenance most expressive—her voice is
meodious, and her enunciation beautifully distinct ; her
action is appropriate and graceful, and she possesses that
elegance of manner which can only be acquired by mix-
ing in good society, but without which no actress can
hope to succeed in the highest order of genteel comedy
or in the first order of tragedy. Her debut was most
successful. - She is an actress of great promise, and we
hope soon to have the pleasure of again seeing her in a
character more worthy of her talents than the part of
Therese.

The following occurs in a Barbadoes paper just ar-
rived, being the excuse of the Editor to his readers for

London, England, 1842-10-01

Captain and cabin-boy were drowned. Ten others,
composing the crew, were by great exertions brought
ashore in a very exhausted state.
The Courrier de Lyon of Wednesday states that the
Rhone was rising with such rapidity, in consequence
of the contined fall of rain, that great fears were en-
tertained of another inundation. A small bridge above
Lyons was carried away on Wednesday morning.
The Constitutionnel says :—" The electi( ns which
have just taken place, leave the numerical strength of
parties in the Chamber in exactly the same position as
they were before the returns were made. If the Mi-
nistry have gained a vote at Bernay, they have lost
cna at Nogent-le-Rotrou, and the success of M. Le-
prevost scarcely consoles its patrons for the failure of
M. Delessert."

said he did not know of his own knowledge where
Mr. G. Greare was. He, however, acknoWledged
that Mr. H. Greare informed him that on the night
of Wednesday fortnight, upon leaving her, and getting
into an omnibus in the Commercial-road, his brother
George subsequently got into the same vehicle, and
instantly fell in a state of insensibility on the seat.
Mrs. Greare denied most solemnly the accusation
made against her, and said she had the full permission
of her husband to visit her friends. She also said,
in reply to her solicitor, that her husband, upon
taking the house, had placed in the hands of bro-
ther Henry upwards of MR., for which he received his
I. 0. U. This document was placed in a chest, with
the brewers' and distillers' books and writings of im-
portance; and this box Mr. Henry Greare had re-
moved from her house.
Mr. Evitt assured the Magistrate that the character
of his client had been grossly traduced; for that from
all the inquiries he had made, he believed her to be a
most respectable woman.
The prisoner was remanded for a week, but was
admitted to bail.
A friend of Mr. H. Greare said he was too unwell
to attend on that day, but would be present on the
next, to give the fullest explanation of his conduct.

NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE.

Mrs. Trollope quizzes the " Whims and Oddi-
ties" of brother Jonathan with, if possible, in-
creased relish this month. Her notable ' Wi-
dow Barnaby" is now on a visit at the country
seat of Colonel and Mrs. Beauchamp, near New
Orleans; and is of course smitten with a sudden
admiration of the slave system, which she looks
on as the pride and the safeguard of Yankee-
land. Equally as a matter of course, her host
and hostess are astonished to find so much ge-
nuine liberality of sentiment in a thorough-bred
Englishwoman ; and the compliments that pass
between the parties in consequence—each striv-
ing which can " pepper the highest"—are con-
ceived in the broadest spirit of caricature. It is
impossible not to be diverted with Mrs. Trollope's
ludicrous and sarcastic sketches of American
character, even while we utterly repudiate them
as studies from nature. " More Hullahbaloo" is
a good-humoured quiz on Mr. Hullak's musical
system, which is just now in such high favour
with the long-eared denizens of the West-end.
"Epigram on a late Cattle-show in Smithfield"
is in Mr. Hood's archest manner. But our read-
ers shall judge for themselves :
" Old farmer Bull is taken sick,
Yet not with any sudden trick
Of fever, or his old dyspepsy ;
But having seen the foreign stock,
It gave his system such a shock,
He's had a fit of cattle-epsy."

In " Short Rides in au Author's Omnibus," we
meet with some shrewd aphoristic remarks.
" Desdemona," says Mr. Horace Smith, " saw
the Moor's complexion in his mind; and a dark
or dirty deed may assume a very fair aspect,
when we look at it through the purse. That
man must be a sturdy moralist, who does not
prefer his cash to his conscience; and what
casuist ever wanted an excuse fur a profitable
traisgression?" Here is another aphorism equally
true to life—" For stopping a man's mouth, when
lie is in the habit of uttering disagreeable truths,
there is no gag like gold. Complaint having
been made to a certain bishop, that a vicar in his
diocese was always preacoing against pluralities,
I will silence him in less than a week' said the
prelate; and so he did, by giving the vicar an
additional benefice." Sir Robert Walpole, it
may be remembered, adopted a similar method
for silencing patriots. When their clamour be-
came inconvenient to him, he gave them a fat
sinecure ; ond their noise ceased in an instant, as
if by miracle. -" "Reminiscences of a Medical
Student " are related with an impressive ear-
nestness of manner. that keeps the reader's
attention on the stretch throughout. Ile
