DUKE OF YORK'S HEALTH.

The answer given to the numerous inquiries at Rutland
House this morning was, that his Royal Highness had
passed a tolerably quiet night, and was much the same
this morning. We understand that his Royal Highness
enjoys uninterrupted freedom from pain, and has taken but
little medicine for some days past, yet we regret to add
that there has been no material improvement in his state
of health.

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

WINDSOR, DEc. 31.---This forenoon his MA-
JESTY, with his household attendants, heard Divine
Service at the New Chapel Royal.
On Friday forenoon, at 12 o'clock, his MAJESTY
left the Royal Lodge in his travelling chariot, drawn
by four of his road horses, with his regular retinue of
outriders ; a relay of horses being forwarded the night
before to Hounslow, where his MAJESTY changes on
his way to London. His MAJESTY paid a long visit
to his Royal Brother, the Duke of York ; after which
his MAJESTY returned to the Royal Lodge, where he
arrived at half-past six o'clock.
Yesterday his MAJESTY did not leave the Royal
Lodge.
Yesterday afternoon a messenger arrived at the
Royal Lodge, bringing intelligence of the state of his
Royal Highness the Duke of York.
Relative to the constant reports of his MAJESTY'S
going to Brighton, it is very uncertain when, or
whether he will go there ; as it is supposed, whilst his
Royal Brother, the Duke of York, remains indis-
posed, his MAJESTY will continue his visits to him.

Highly to his honour, in the early part of last week,
the Duke of Yoßx recommended his MAJESTY to give gratui-
tously Lieutenancies in the Army to a number of meritorious and
deserving gentlemen, whose narrow pecuniary circumstances would
not enable them to pay the regulation price.

The arrival of Mr. Haviland, the King's Messen-
ger, this morning, at the Foreign Office, from Madrid, caused
some stir in the City. The contents of his despatches did nut
transpire, but some persons who pretended to be in the secret,
affirmed that they were unfavourable, as the Messenger had left
on the 22d, and the English ultimatum up to that day bad not
been agreed to.—Morning Post.
Mr. Hunter, the very respectable King's Messen-
ger, had a 'very narrow escape the other day in returning from
the Peninsula. For the sake of expedition he had taken an open
boat on the river Douro, when, in consequence of a sudden squall,
or the rapidity of the current, the boat upset, and, had it not
been for the intrepidity and alertness of the watermen, who
Caught Mr. Hunter by the nape of his neck when he was on the
point of sinking, this intrepid servant of the public would inevit-
ably have periShed.

THE DUKE OF YORK.

With heartfelt grief We hive to annoUnce to our Readers
that all hope of the recovery of the Duke of YORK is
,at
an end. The Physicians in attendance on his ROYAL
HIGHNESS declared on Saturday that no rational ground
for hope remained, and the state of the Illustrious sufferer
has since proved the correctness of their opinion. Morti-
fication has taken place and is rapidly spreading; its fatal
progress can no longer be arrested by'pedicines, and• a few
•Imum must, therefore„ terminate die mortal career of this
highly respect ecLPrince.

During the whole of his illness his ROYAL HIGH-
NESS has manifested the fortitude of a Soldier, and
the, resignation „of a Christian. To the latest. period at
which his strength evabled'bini to' attend to public busi-
ness, he devoted himself to the duties of his office, not
neglecting those religious duties and consolations which
his approaching dissolution, required. It is not yet the
time for us to do justice to his ROYAL HIGHNESS'S charac-
ter; but we are convinced that, whenever it may please
the Almighty to terminate his sufferings, the public grief
will testify the respect aad attachment which a very large
majority of the community entertain for the public and
private worth of the Duke of YORK.
We have collected in another column, all the particulars
respecting his ROYAL HIGHNESS, during the last two days.

LITERARY MAGNET.

We grieve to state that this Periodical is becoming
grievously old-womanish. What is Mr. Alaric Alured
Watts about, that he thus sleeps over the child of his adop-
tion ? Is the neophyte ill ?or is the parent indifferent to
the education of his offspring ? Something, at any rate,
is the matter, or we should not have such drowsy elegiac
prosingsras those scattered lavishly through a would-be w►tty
article yclept " Book Beggars," wherein it seems to be
the -wile ambition of its author to show himself of us a
great man—a point which we hesitatingly concede to him.
We are quite convinced that Mr. Watts could never have
seen- this lucubration, or he would scarcely have burdened
his generally amusing pages with its awkward nonsense.—
Next month we hope he will starta giant refreshed—with
renewed energies, and give us another " Gertrude," im
expectation of which treat we here gratefully bid him good
bye. .

THE MONTHLY REVIEW

_Has distinguished itself this month by some amusing
strictures on Miss Landon, who, though assuredly 110
Sappho—as the Editor of the " Literary Gazette " would
'lead us to suppose—is yet, no fool. Indeed, she is a Very
pretty Poetess, and writes on love as we shoUld like to see
it made. The Review of " Boaden's Lire of Mrs. Sid-
dons" is penned in a still stronger spirit of animadversion,
and there is not one remark in it with which we do not
cordially coincide. Amon4 other equally pungent sarcasms,
it calls Mr. Boaden, a ptrsitive Quack—we go two degrees
further—and call hion'a superlative on scribbler who
has eked out a trashy volume with a slip-shod diction,
alternately porapenis as Gibbon—and negligent as Hazlitt.
The other Reviews are all more or less deserving of corn-
Peeqdation, espcially one entitled, " The InVasiOn of Por-
tugal ;-',to which -we direct our reader's attention.

THE LONDON MAGAZINE.

We regret much that our space this month prevents us
from noticing the very able article, entitled " Adventures
of a Foreigner in Greece," which does credit to this Ma-
gazine. Its details respecting the death of the famous
Greek warrior Marco Botzari and his Suliotes—Lord
Byron's Missolonghi body guard--should be read by every
one, as also the magnanimous address of his sister to the
Greeks who surrounded the corpse. The few last num-
bers of the London, have catered successfully to the ap-
petite of the public, in a certain light miscellaneous conti-
nental information; it has few papers of thought, or
fancy, or criticism, (its last, in particular, whenever they
occur, are characterized by a petty splenetic malignity un-
worthy of a man of talent), hat those of the nature just
described have nothing tt which we can possibly except,
either in point of inciflent or comment.

SECONDARIES' OFFICE.

Yesterday Mr. CROWTHER, the Secondary, hav-
ing summoned a Jury of respectable tradesmen to
attend upon a writ of inquiry, stated that he had
summoned them in conformity with Mr. Peel's Act.
Juries are, therefore, henceforward to be chosen as
Juries at .Nisi Prius are. The Secondary is deter-
mined, however, that the change shall be attended
with as little inconvenience as possible to the gen-
tlemen summoned.

ISRAMWELI. V. EARL AND WHITEWICK

This was rather a singular case of, assault. The
damages were laid at 150/.
Mr. Bramwell, a gentleman of considerable pro-
perty, is the owner of about thirty houses at Tun-
bridge Wells, which houses he lets out to lodgers
in the season. As some of the houses were unoc-
cupied, he hired the wife of Earl to answer any in-
quiries that might be made about them, at the sa-
lary of 101. per annum., She, however, found a
more profitable employment, and: he was compelled
to engage another person, the condition annexed to
the payment of the salary being completely disre-
garded. Her husband, however, insisted.upon pay-
ment,and took out a writ upon the 4th of May against
Mr. Bramwell. At a quarter past ten o'clock that
gentleman heard a loud knocking at his door, and
when he opened it in rushed the two defendants,
neither of whom is either a sheriff's or a police
officer, and collared him, saying, " You are our pri-
goner." "For what ?"
said Mr. Bramwell; to
which they replied,
" For a considerable amount."

when he did, instead of walking in at the hall' and
door,
he mounted in at the • window. The defendant ad-
mitted that they had no authority for touching Mr.
Bramwell, and the sheriff's-officer, when he arrived,
would not attempt to act.
It was satisfactorily proved that Mr. Bramwell
was, was re-
sorted ; wheno
against
him, perfectly

The Jury assessed the damages at 100/.
After the case was disposed of, one of the Jury '
asked the Secondary whether he knew why the de-
fendants did not attend to their defence. •
Mr. CROWTHER said, that the distance was con-
siderable, and they were probably poor.
A Juryman wished to be informed why an assault,
which had been committed at such a distance, was
tried in the city of London.
Mr. CROWTHER (as we understood him) said,
that the Attorney-General made the thing as conve-
nient as possible to himself, and had it tried where
he pleased.
The Jury observed, very naturally, that such a
practice must be ruinous in a long cause.

Prisoner.—All this is.the work of the demon.

PRESIDENT (to witness).—Did he not after make
use of improper language p—He said that v:e ought
to eat, drink,„&c.
PRESIDENT.—Were you not surpriSed by Lis
conduct during Lent ?--On Good Friday be bad
soup and sausages. .
PRESIDENT.—The observation of such practices
is probably not essential to religion, but it is a sacred
duty for a priest.
In answer to a question
,put by the President, the
witness stated a few days ago a man,,eatne into her
lodge, and after asking for a person who did not
live in the house, began talking abont the Abbe
Contrafatto. He said that he knew. that all that
Madame Lebou wanteckl was money, End that be
came ox: the part of theiCure, to call upon her, and
offer her money, to hush up the affair.
Capr. Corege, one of the lodgers, hearing high.
words in the lodge, eame in, and on learning the
cause, told the stranger not to come again to insult
Madame Lebon.

M. Dormoil, another lodger, heard the prise,
on one occasion, in the'porter's-lodge, make use
language revoltingly indecent.

Clement Decoux, the sacristan of the parish, hau
ceased to esteem and respect the prisoner in conse-
quence of his having seen, at an early hour in the
morning, in the Apostolical's room, a young swimsn
in her stays and white petticoat, and who disappeared
on a sign from his Reverence:
To this the Apostolical replied, that it was only .a
neighbour who came to ask him the hour. '
Here the evidence closed, and the Caul adjourned
till half:past eight o'clock in the evening.
At half-past eight in the evening, the prOCeedings
were resumed, when N. Ledin, counsel for Madame.
Lebon, addressed the Court and Airy. He termi-
nated his appeal in the following words Gentle-
men, it is for you to decide which of the two-,a
virtuous mother of a family, or a renegade Priest,-
is the culprit. Choose !"
The Jury returned a unanimous verdict of guilty;

abortive malignity of foes whom the present and
all succeeding generations, so long as their names
shall endure, will hold in abhorrence and con-
tempt.l—Morning Post.

It is not a usual practice with Public Jour-
nalists to dwell on the family events of individuals
however dignified, nor to direct the public sym-
pathy towards them, unless on occasions of sor-
rowing and misfortune. Why we should adopt
the one half of the scripture precept, and reject
the other—why we should weep with those that
weep, yet refuse to rejoice with those that rejoice
—is a question to which we can give no more
satisfactory answer than that custom has ruled it
so. There are times, however, when old cus-
toms may properly be broken through ; and the
event which has led us to remark—the birth of
a son and heir to Lord Goderich—is, we think,
precisely such a one as may justify a departure
from ordinary observances. This accession to
his Lordship's family derives additional interest
from that most melancholy loss which it sus-
tained some months ago. Many a prayer was
then breathed by lips that quivered from the dread
or the remembrance of a similar visitation, that
He who had so grievously smitten, would, in
his good time, send consolation: These prayers,
not the less prevalent because they were put up
by humble hearts in the privacy of retirement,
have been answered, and a child is born, who is
destined, we hope and trust, to be the stay of
the declining years, as well as the delight of the
manhood of his sire. We are honest and sin-
cere admirers of his Lordship's public character,
as we have on many occasions declared ; and we
rejoice to see him in a station where his talents
and his patriotism are placed in their most con-
spicuous light ; but in this instance it is our
wish to drop all consideration of his high rank
and official eminence, and to view him only in
the humbler and less shining attributes of a
happy husband and a happy father.—New Times.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Oct. 26.

I3ACRELOR V. A CONVICTION OF H. 2.f. DYER, ESQ.

This was an appeal on the part of an eating-house-
keeper, against a conviction for retailing beer with-
out a licence. The appellant's son was in the habit
of supplying his father customers with beer as they
demanded it, from a neighbouring public-house,
from the landlord of which he was allowed a half-
penny per pot for the quantity so disposed of; and
the question was, whether or not the seer so sup-
plied by the son. to the customers was to be consi-
dered as having been sold in the house.
The COURT after hearing Mr. ADOLPHUS for the
respondent, and Mr. BRODERICK for the appellant,
decided that this was a retailing of beer in an unli-
censed house, and affirmed the conviction.
Margaret Courtenay was indicted for a fraud on
the War Office. The defendant lied received a
pension of 9/. a year from the Compassionate Fund,
as the orphan daughter of the late Ensign Courte-
' nay, of the sth Royal Veteran Battalion, to which
she was entitled only so long as she was unmarried.
She became the wife of a person named Wright in
1824, notwithstanding which she made the usual
affidavit the next year, stating that she was unmar-
ried, and accordingly received the pension. She
was unable, however, to read or write, and in her
defence she said that she was wholly unconscious,
when she affixed her mark to the affidavit, that she
was doing any thing wrong.
The Jury found her Guilty, but recommended her
to mercy, on the ground that she appeared to have
offended through ignorance.
The COURT sentenced her to one month's impri-
sonment.

that the less sustained by the misfortune's of this highly re•
spected indiVidual will ultimately be very trifling.
BURMESE LAWS.—The Burmese Code of
Laws have the simplicity and, in due proportion, the ab-
surdity of a semi-barbarous people. Many of them apply
to the relation of master and slave—tbe slave having in ge-
neral become so in acquittance of a debt, the discharge of
which effects the emancipation. If the slave be a kinsman
of the owner, he becomes free upon the death of the latter.
There is, likewise, for an Asiatic code, great considera-
tion for the female sex ; and where a husband has
treated his wife, he is in the first instance admonisbea;
but if he repeats the offence, the woman is allowed to quit
him, taking with her the whole of the property, leaving
the man nothing but the garment he wears. —Londo

SAILING MATCH.

On Thursday morning at an early hour, notwithstand-
ing the unfavourable state of the weather, a considerable
number of the members of the Thames Yacht Club as-
sembled at Blackwell to witness a sailing match from
Blackwell to Gravesend and back, for 501., between the
Don Giovanni, J. Davy, Esq., Chelsea, 11 tons ; and the
Royal Eagle, Stokes, Esq., Rotherhithe, 11 tons.--M
half-past eight both vessels started, the Don taking the
lead, but on her arriving at Bugsby's Hole she got into a
calm,. and the Royal Eagle catching a brisk breeze astern,
passed her, and arrived at Blackwell only one minute and
a half before her antagonist. Both vessels were steered by
their owners.

LIVERPOOL, OCT. 25.—Our Cotton market
has been heavy to-day, and lower prices have been sub-
mitted to, yet we can hardly say that it will admit of the
quotation of ath of a penny per pound on some descriptions
on last week's quotations ; yet it may be quoted on others,
and the quantity sold to-day may be estimated at 1,800
to 2,000 bags.
WELSH PoNiEs,ln crossing the Black
Mountains, which are perhaps the most bleak and sterile
spots upon the island, you meet ,frequently with a kind of
table-land of most boggy and unstable surface. Upon
these miniature Steppes, hundreds of black, shaggy ponies,
not much larger than Newfoundland dogs, are found appa-
rently wild. They graze on these wild mountain-plains in
droves, and are as much alarmed at the eight of a human
being, as a - herd of Antelopes on the Arabian Desert.
When the owner wishes to catch any of his ponies for
sale, lie goes in search of them as a huntsman in search of
game ; and hunting a pony is sometimes attended with, as
much sport and difficulty as running down a fux.t.-London

GALLOPING MATCH,

An excellent galloping match of eight miles took place
on Thursday, between Capt. Freemtuitle and Mr. Richards,
for 50 soya. a side. Betting, from the known celebrity of
Captain Freemantle, was 5 to 4 in his favour. The
match took place on a three-mile piece of ground, near
Biggleswade, and was won by Captain Freemantle.
London, England, 1827-12-15

Mr..I3ROUGHAN_ observed, that je must throw

himself upon the indulgence of the Court not to pro-
ceed with this case, as he had not got his papers
.with him, and there were many points in which his
impression of the trial differed from that given by
the Learned Judge.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE.—YOU will soon have
your papers, I suppose, Mr. Brougham.
Mr. BROUGHAM—I am afraid not, my Lord ; they
were taken from my carriage the night before last,
when the footman happened to be away for a mo-
ment. The thief got nothing but a bundle of use-
less papers in a bag.
The Comm—Oh then, I suppose we can't go
on ? We'll do whatever you wish, Mr. Brougham..
Mr. F. PoLLocfc—My Learned Friend will re-
ceive a proposition, my Lords, I have no doubt, upon
which he can compound and get his papers back.
This allusion created much diverson in Court,
which was considerably heightened a minute or two
afterwards, when
Mr. BROUGHAM stood up, with a mate which his
clerk had just handed to him, ands 4.47„—,,it the
communication, my Lords, of which my friend, Mr,
Pollock, just now gave me notice. lam informed
that, by sending to a certain place, I may have my
bag and papers back. I am afraid, however, that,
without the leave of the Court, I cannot compound,"
—(Much laughter, in which the Bench joined.)
The COURT declined giving any opinion or assist-
ance to the briefless Counsellor.

Mr. Brougham, however, without waiting for the
instructions of the Learned Judges, despatched bis
clerk in quest of the lost bag.
The ulterior proceedings, in consequence of this
daring attack upon the privileges of. the bar, have
not yet been resolved upon. It is understood to be

It is a matter for grave consideration how far a
lawyer's !papers can be treated as:propertyZand the,
stealing of them deemed a felony. Mr. Brougham
himself called them" useless." The better opinion
seems to be, that they are not property,(this, of course,
does not apply to the bag), but that a civil action
for damages, at the separate suit of the clients, as
well as Counsel, may be brought. The Learned
Judges, it is understood, will not be backward in
visiting this interference with the business of their
Court with due punishment," " provided always"
that the offender be discovered, or delivers himself
up for judgment: The law of the country can never
go on, if lawyers' bags are to be stolen with impu-
nity. It is held iv lawyers, that the legal character
must be held sacred; and the legislature may be ap-
plied to in the next Session, to make it sacrilege to
touch the hair of---a- Counsellor's (or Judge's) wiK
