Accounts are reported to be received via Bour-
demr, from Tampico, of the 6th Sept. stating
that the above place was surrounded by eight thou-
sand Mexican troops, and that the Spaniards were in
such a situation that they could not put their heads
out of the fortress; they have a number of sick.
The above somewhat corresponds with the account
from Madrid in the French Papers this morning.
Letters from Montevideo state, that a complete
revolution tunongst the Ministry took place there on
the 24th August. The Inspector-General Ribeiro,
after having made friends with General Lavalleja,
forced General Bontleau, the Governor, to turn out
all the Ministers; after which he appointed himself
Minister, and, it is supposed that he aims at being
made President.
Letters are in town from Rio Janeiro two days
later than the last accounts, but they do not bring
any political information. The Exchange was the
same as the previous accounts, 26k.
A report prevailed at Constantinople that the
Porte was going to conclude a separate alliance with
England.
. The Funds still continue in the same stagnant
state as in the early part of the morning, without
any alteration from the opening price, 91i for
money, 91i for the present account, and for next
time 924, buyers.
The only business doing in the Foreign market is
in Brazil stock, which is rather heavy; Mexican
is somewhat improved ; Spanish a shade higher; in
other securities little or nothing doing.
The Hamburg steamer is not yet arrived.

A blue shark became entangled in the net.
of some fishermen off Bognor, on Wednesday, and was ulti
mutely secured. It measured nearly eight feet in length
and weighed 3 cwt. 2 qrs. The fish was exhibited in'
Chichester on Thursday, by which it is expected the men
will be remunerated for the damage to their nets, which
amounted to 10/.—Hants Chronicle.

Trade in Paisley continues in a state some-
thing similar to what it is Over the country generally:
The weavers are (generally speaking), all employed, but
at very low prices ; for except in a few of the very worst
paid fabrics, there is no advance whatever since the late
stagnation; and any advance that has taken place is so
trifling as to be unworthy of. notice. There has been
some change in the silk gauze fabrics of late, but there
cannot be said to be any increase in the number of weavers
employed in that line. The Thibet shawls are considera-
bly flatter than they were about a month back; but no
diminution in the number of hands employed at them has
as yet taken place.— Glasgow Chronicle.
A melancholy suicide was committed this
morning at the foot of Drygate-street. A young woman
was left by a relation at six o'clock. putting on the clothes
of a little boy, whom she afterwards sent up stairs. A
little before etht, a neighbour on going in found her sus-
pended by a cord from a nail above the window. She
had been some time hanging, as the body on being cut
down was found quite cold. She was accused by a neigh-
bour on Wednesday of stealing a couple of candlesticks,
and was threatened with the police-office, which had such
an effect upon her mind, that she was observed yesterday
to be in a state of dejection bordering on derangement.
The deceased was 18 years of age, bore a respectable cha-
racter, and is described as having been always of a cheer-
,

COURT OF CHANCERY.
DUNN V. DUNN.
• The Loan CHANCELLOR gave judgment to the follnlP-
ing effect :—ln this case a bill was filed by a gentionel
living at Hereford, as the next friend of the plaintiff; er-
another bill was filed by the Rev. Mr. Rodner, as the
next friend of the parties in the suit. Those causes were
referred to the Master for the purpose of his deciding)
which of the two cases it would be most for the benefit
of
the infants should he proceeded with. The Master decided ill
favour of Mr. Rodner's bill. The grounds on which lie decided
were grounds that could not be impeached—l mean the
general grounds. Mr. Rodner was a very near relation ;
the gentleman at Hereford was distantly related. 111.1.'
Rodner was on the spot ; the other party was at a distance',
The frame of Mr. Refiner's suit was more advantageetle'
for discussing the general questions that were to be agi-
tated than the other bill.
Shortly before the Master made his report, and when
there was every reason to believe that the parties knell
pretty well what his decision -would be, another bill
was prepared and filed in the name of Goldecotet
as the next friend of the infants. Application was made
to take that bill off the file; and I believe an order ha
been obtained for the purpose of referring that cause to the
Master to enquire whether it would be most to the :given;
tage of the infants that it or that Mr. Rodner's bill shoule
proceed. I have read the affidavits with great attendee',
and it is impossible to look at them without being 'stir
fled that Mr. Goldecote is identified with Mr. Biel°,
(the solicitor), and also with the widow. Therefe_re
I think it would be disadvantageous and mischievous
the interests of the infants if this bill were to be Balsa" •
toted for Mr. Rodner's. I think there is sufficient in the"
affidavits to authorise me to believe there is a strong eee''
nection between the widow and Mr. Finns, and that M'
Goldecote's bill was filed for the mere purpose of defeating
the Master's decision. Though it is said Mr. Goldecote Wass
friend of the deceased, yet he is no relation, and Mr. Rebel
is the uncle of the infants. Under these circumstance,
have no hesitation in declaring that Mr. Rodner's suit Li
the one that must be gone on with. There was a goa:
deal of evidence brought forward to show that Mr. Rod-
ner had conducted himself harshly towards the de-.
cea,sed Major Dunn. There was a great deal of coo'
fficting testimony upon this point ; and I think
tt
was admitted in the arguments th it there was so noel'
contrariety of the evidence here, that no decision could bt
come to upon it. As far as lam able, however, to
focal
an opinion, particularly from the letters and norresP°ll-
dence, which speak for themselves, I do not see 101
thing in the evidence to justify that itnputation
the character of Mr. Rodner; and it appests o,
me that I shall best consult the interests
the parties, by directing Mr. Refiner to carry on the
suit, as I ant sure it will be carried on accurate!!
and properly by him with respect to all parties. The
next question is one of considerable importance, and ref re'
to the costs. Ido not think that the petition present'-d,
me, to dismiss Mr. Goldecote's hill, should have been pre'
rented as I think the question might have been amply inveg',•
tigated before the Master, who had all the facts before •
consequently I shall not give the costs of that petition. The
prayer relates to the discharge of two orders, referring the
causes to the Master. Those orders it was necessary
discharge. It referred also to an order of reference te,
appoint guardians. That order should also be discharge"'
as the appointment of guardians would have to take Plays
under Mr. Rodner's bill, and a proper maintenance dire.f.t.;
ed. Another question regarded the filing of a bill sew'
Mr. John Rodner, for the purpose appointing a receiver;
the prayer there was that the bill might be ordered toil'?
taken oft the file, and that the.party filing it might be "he,
rected to pay the costs. This petition was presented"'
Mr. Goldecote, as the next friend of the heir-at-lese'
The proceedings under that bill I confess were, ee
peered to me, irregular and not justifiable. The filing,
the bill, in fact, was a mere trick for the purpose del
a receiver appointed ; and if the conduct of the Para
concerned in the filing of it was merely to he attendee
I should have no hesitation in directing it to be tsskell;to
the file at once, but as I see no advantage to be derived
the infant by snaking such an order, I shall be eeete:c
with decreeing that the parties filing it shall pay all
expences incident to it. There must be a receiver
pointed of the personal as well as of the real estate•
think no person, unless wry well acquainted with the Prof
ceedings of this Court, could look at the great number
bills and petitions that have been filed in this cause, 5,.;
the immense expence that has been incurred by refereeTi-
and so on, without being shocked, and considering it ow
terrible!
