REA b. SAME.

In this case the plaintiff, also a gunsmith in the
Minories, recovered 9421. Is. 4d. It appeared in
evidence that neither the plaintiff nor any of his
servants lived in the house, and the Common Ser-
geant contended, that it was not, therefore, " his
dwelling-house," as alleged in the declaration.
Mr. GURNEY, on the other hand, produced a
lease to the plaintiff's tather, and the probate of
his will giving it to his son ; but Lord Ellcubo-
rough seemed to be of opinion that it did not sa-
tify the allegation ; he, however, saved the point,
and the plaintiff obtained a verdict,, subject. to the
discussion of it.

MEDICINE.

ON HEALTH.

UNDER the denomination of NERVOUS
DisoßDEßs,•iti its full extent, are included several
Diseases of she most dangerous kind, and are so various, that
a volume would hardly sultice to complete a description of
them. The must common symptonis are weakness,. flatu-
lency, palpitations, watchfulness, drowsiness after eating,
timidity, Hashes of heat and cold. numbness, rigours of dif-
ferent parts, giddiness, pains (especially of the head, bads,
and loins), hiccup, difficulty of respiration and deglutitiOn,
anxiety, dry cough. &c.
One symptom is distinguished by no name, and of which it
is impossible to form. any arts:citrate conception. • It is de.:
scribed as malting its attacks by violent paroxysms, which
are, however, usually preceded by portentous indications like
the brooding of a furious storm. It pervades with its baleful
influence the whole nervous system, writhing the hea:t with
inexpressible anguish, awl .exciting the most druadfutsug-
gestions of horror and despair ! To this demon haie thou-
sands fallen a sacrifice in the.direful transports of its rr.ge.
Nothing, therefore, eau be more important to the com-
munity, than a diligent perusal of those Anthors who have so
ably treated on this most alarming, most distressing, and less
pitied complaint incident to the human frame. It certainly
requires " A Guide to Health," to lead front cinch scenes of
calamity and wue'to those of happiness and felicity.
A Publication under that title, " The Guide to Health,"
was lately published by Dr. Solomon, of Liverpool, and its
unprecedented sale of upwards of 100,000 copies has suffi-
ciently proved its vast utility,to the public • most •of the va-
rious diseases incident to either sex are plainly treated on
with that candour and liberality which are conspicuous traits
in the character of the Author. Most Booksellers in Town
and Country sell this book, price as., or can procure it for
their customers at the same price, free of carriage. It there-
fore behoves every individual to become possessed of so va-
luable a jewel, a faithful " Guide," which will lead them
front the paths of affliction to the road where health, peace,
and happiness are to be attained.

DRURY-LANE.--Til'C lICW Gas Illumination of
this Theatre was submitted to the- public last
night, and the effect was in the highest degree
brilliant over• the auditnee part of the Theatre,
but not equally so on the stage. We do not,
however, mean to say, that the Performers wete
obscured, but the other• part was so very splen-
did,. that a difference could not but strike the au-
thence, who. on the whole testified high admira-
tion of the general effect. The performances wore
John Bull and Obi. In the former, Mr. Jortm-
sToNE, who had been some weeks disabled front
appearing, by a severe disorder in his eye, and
general indisposition, was received by the au-
d•ence on his appearance in Dennis Brulgruddery
wilh.the warmest applause, which he amply r•e-
quuited by his admirably humourous support of the
character. DowTots' also was excellent as the
Brazier, and the comedy altogether excited touch
entertainment. The afterpiece of Obi was, with
all its terrors, well received. .

COVENT-GA-RDEN.—This Theatre re-opened last
night with the new Musical Drama of Rob .Roy
Macgregor, or Auld Lang Syne ; and the last new
Pantomime.
.A Jew trifling alterations have been
effected in the interior of the house. An addi-
tional seat has been gained in the pit next the or-
chestra, part of which, to make room for the al-
teration, is carried under the stage. In the light
which ranges along the front of the stage gas has
been substituted for oil. The pieces were per-
formed with great spirit, and the favourites of the
public gained their usual meed of applause. The
house was crowded.

ASSIZE INTELLIGBNCE.

At the Stafford Assizes a case was tried of a
curious nature. A public nieeting to petition for
Parliamentary Reform hiving been hdd in the
Potteries, a nian named Deakin was employed to
hawk about and obtain signatures to the peti-
tif,n, and he placed himself in the high road Op-
posite 'to. Mr. Spode's manufactory at Stoke,
with the view of catching the men as they lett
%yolk, and getting them to sign it. 911 being
observed with a table berme Hm, five persons
within the manufactory brought out a water en-
gine, with which they pursued D,!akin along the
road till lie was thorOughly tiretu lied, and their
water exhausted. Deakin now indicted them for
rint and assault—be appeared vvry illiterate,
had been a boatman, a carter, and a pots:eller,
and it appeared was hired toobtain the signatures,
at 3s. a day.

Mr. DAUNcEY, in addressing the Jury for the
defendants, said, Deakin went to set his inflam-
matory n►3tter to work amongst Mr. Spode's men,
and they took the readiest means to extinguish his
Haire; he excited a flame, and they put a little
water on him, and eXtitigoiShed.it.
Judge ButtaonGH Considered the cond►rct of
Deakin blameable in placing himself before the
n►anufactory for the purpose of catching the :urn
as they came out ; hut_ still a riot and assault had
been corn►uitted, acts highly illegal.
Tt,c Jury, however, brought in a verdict of Not
Guilty.

At Dorchester Assizes; Mr. Baldwin, a farmer,
recovered 1901. -from the Earl of Dighy, for da-

BOXING.

Molesey Hurst, where many a brave miller has
bled, was again the seat of action yesterday, and
the evolutions practised there kept pace with those
teats of manhood already recorder) in the fight
between Eales and Isle of Night Hall, men pos-
sessing science superior to most, and eyu►al to any
on the boxing list. Their weights are something
more than eleven stone, save a few pounds, which
the gallant fight we are about to record took oft
tl►em. At one o'clock Hall made his bow to the
spectators, and Eales soon followed. They tied
their colours to the stakes, and turned to. Se-
conds, Belcher and Harmer for Hall, and Oliver
and Jones for Eales. Average betting, 7t04 on

[The Tines.]

We are desired, trout unquestionable authori-
ty, to contradict the report, which appeared in
our paper of the 23d inst. of a ninthly having
broken out on board the convict ship Surrey,
RAINe. From what we have heard of the character
of Captain Rain e, and ft om our own perusal of
official testimonials in his favour, we are persuad-
ed that the unfortunate objects under his charge
s% ill meet with that liberal and humane treatment
which is consistent with the arduous duty he has
to pertoim. l'his is, we understnud, Captain
Raines fourth voyage to New South \Vales : in
the former, when he had 150 convicts on board,
not One of them was in irons after passing the
Cape of Good 1-lope. We subjoin the following
testimonial of his conduct :-
4, Secretary's °flier, Sydney, 4th February, 1817.

' Si have it -in command to inform you, that his Ex-
cellency the Governor has perused the journal of your voyage
hither, with male convicts from Ireland, and that he is per-
fectly satisfied with the manner in which it there appears you
conducted the arduous duty you had to perform.
" His Excellency further desires inc to express to you, that
lie was much pleased• with the remarkably healthy state in
which those convicts arrived (without the loss of a single
Irian); which circumstance, combined with the unanimous
testitnony of those persons in favour of your kindness and
humanity to them during a long voyage, reflect much credit
on you, itnd entitle you to this expression of his Excellency's
entire and unqualified approbation of your conduct.

KEW, TUESDAY NIGHT.

This morning, at nine o'clock, a Guard of Ho-
nour, in full state-dress, from the first regiment of
Foot Guards, tinder the command of Colonel Bar-
rows, marched into the Court of the Palace, and
immed ately on their entrance, their colours wete
lowered, and their arms filed on the open space,
in front of the grand entrance. At the same time,
a detachment of the'l9th Lancers were stationed
in files, in the different approaches to the Pa-
lace, to regulate the setting down of the carriages.
The opening of the ceremony was delayed nearly
an hour beyond the time announced, by the non-
arrival of the Yeomen of the• Guard ; and it ap-
pealed, their delay eviss occasioned by the over-
turning, in Kensington►, of the carriage which was
conveying them from St. James's Palace. At

'THE THEATRES.

COVENT-GARDEN --The once popular play of
Pizarro was represented last night at this Theatre.
Mrs.YATEs; the new acquisition, performed the part
of Elvira. By her perforinance of lady Macbeth,
and Meg Merrilies, she has shewn that her powers
are versatile, and from those parts and her Elvira,
we are induced to conceive, that she is altogether
well qualified for the line Of.heroic Termagants.
There was energy, Spirit, and discrimination, in
her performance altogether ; afrd it is evident that
the antlieiice thought so, by the sliplause which
she received. You &G very successfully follows

FART AFELL DINNER.—On Sunday evening the
Male Performers of the ENGLISH OPERA louse
gave a Farewell Dinner to Mr. BARTLEY, on his
taking leave of the Conipiny, preparatory to his
Intended departure for America. Mr. ARNOLD
took the Chair. Messrs. ErARLEY and PEAKS,
jun. were the Steivards. The scene, by all ac-
counts, was highly interesting, and Wits marked.
by good Ilumotir, without any convivitA excess.
Mr". AlitsoLtitook the opportunity of testifying, in
the name of the Company and himself, the regret
which they all felt in parting with a Gentleman who,
in his public and ifrivate character, and in his ca-
'pacify of Manager, had conducted hintSelt in such
a manner as to deserve their respect and esteem.
This speech, which, we understand, was well
conceived, and delivered with affecting energy,
ekcited the warm acclamations of the company,

bluiself, as for sonic minutes to prevent him trom
giving any answer. At length he subdued his
feelings, and expreiised his ackndWledgments with
interesting tervdur. This amicable festival must
be deemed highly honourable to those Who pro-
moted it, as well as to Mr. BARTLEY, who, from all
that we have heard 'of his character and conllUct,
appears tb he fully entitled to such a testimony of
brotherly respect and attachtnent. We heartily

LINEN TRADE.

The foirowing Report has been made by Mr.
lAmits lamoN, of Donaghadee, to the Linen-
drapers and Bleachers of the North of Ireland,
and, in particular, to the Bainbridge Association,
who have been liberal in subscribing individually
to Mr. LEMON, for his watchfulness in prevent-
ing stolen linen front being clandestinely carried
over in the vatlieis, and other vessels, plying be-
tween Donaghadte and Portpatrick. The Report
inns thns :

" In consequence of my exertions, and the assistance af-
forded by the Captains of vessels who sail from Donaghadee
to Portliatrick, and to Maryport, in England, there can
scarcely a single thief escape. There was a knot of Huai
thieves, who formed a sot t of company—they corresponded
' between Belfast and near to Ayr, in Scotland', not far dis-
tant Runt the Tollhargate. There is a house there to which
hey resorted. There is also a house at Donaghadee, one at
Newtonards, one at Portpatrick' and another at Stranraer,
all connected with the one near Ayr. A woman of the name
of A-- (one of the agents) makes sales of three, and two
and a half-yard pieces. calling them remnants of linen, sonic
nearly white, and some half bleached, with a small assort-
ment of remnants, some fully white, with the cords and
marks, and some without either, which they term Buck-webs,
cut in remnants.
" t have a correspondent'ai'Ayr, one at Stranraer, and
another at Portpatrick, who are very useful; and I have no
doubt but that in a little time a total stop will be put to the
thieving system, both of stolen linen and horses."
The Linen Manufacture in this county is likely
to be benefited very considerably by the late visit
of the Count and Cotin•ess de Salis to the Count's
extensive estates near Briar. They are situated
in the finest part ,of the flax district, and the
Count has arranged a system for the improvement
of the culture and encouragement of the growth
of it. A spinning-school on a liberal scale is
established at Lotighgar, by tire direction of tire
Countess, for the purpose of instructing and giv-
ing employment to the female children on the
estate ; and she has appropriated a considerable
annual fund for the support of it, besides a large
donation of wheels and flax for the commence-
inent. A skilful mistress has been sent front the
county of Armagh to superintend it, and to teach
the use of the double wheel, or system of spin-
ning with both hands, as well as the mode of
spinning tour and five-bank yarn, instead of one
or two•hank, which is now their general limit.
'l:the establishment, with a cotresponding encon-
Fitgement to linen-weavers, and the certain sale at
the linen-market, in this ci,y, promises much
good, will excite a spirit of industry, and tend to
promote the prosperity, not only of that estate in
particular, but also of this county at large---,an
example worthy of being followed by other great
landed proprietors.-7(Linterick, Chronicle.)

New York Papers to the 28th of- December
arrived this morning.

They repeat the statement of Mr. Bacon, the
British Minister, having entered a Protest against
their Government taking possession of the
Floridas. The Republican Chronicle of the 26th
of December says, " we can assert with con-
fidence that the British 'Minister entered his Pro-
test against the occupation of Amelia Island first ;
but that our Government intend to protest in form
against the seizure of the lonian Isles by the
British, on the ground that it lays the Commerce
of the Adriatic at their mercy, and was, more-
over, done without the consent previously ob-
tained either of the rest of the world or the
Turkish Government."

LATE AN!) IMPORTANT NEWS.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN OFFICER AT FORT

HAWKINS, DATED DEC. 10.

" The firing which was supposed to be an at-
tack upon Colonel ARBUCKLE'S camp, was a can-
nonading from Fort Scott, in return to some firitig
which the. Indians made upon, the boats which
were building, in the river. Nothing material
resulted. The account Which I gaveyou relative
to the, foraging party being cut off is probably
.in-
correct, ss has not been confirmed.
" I expect you have had an Express from Gen.
GAINES, the contents of which have 'transpired
here ; that is, that General GAINBS ascertained
that Major Musustrauaa was ascending Apalacha,
and dispatched two boats to his assistance, and to
collect provisions. One
,boat, commanded by
Lieut. SCOTT, with 50 men, was attacked 12
miles below Fort Scott, and the whole massacred
except six, who saved themselves by swimming,
four of wham were wounded. From the other
boat, and another which had been up the River,
nothing had been beard. An express from Gen.
JACKSON to Gen. GAINES had been received, that
stated that be bad taken the route by Fort Gaines,
but was unable to proceed. He penetrated within
10 miles of the Fort, when he observed fresh
Indians (Stngars), and a few miles further he
came to where two white men had been killed,
one of whom was Mr. JOHN CHAMBERS, of Fort
Gaines.

" It is supposed they were killed on Monday
last, within a few miles where they had encamped
the night before.—Provisions are plenty, and

POOR LAWS.

Mr. CURWEN was astonislid that the subject of the Poor
Laws was not noticed in the Speech from the Throne. That
the Poor Laws required amendthent was the conviction of all
stho had ever thought an the subject; but however much
such amendment was called for, he should despair of the suc-
cess of and• measut:e not brought forward under the atupicett
of the Government.

Lord CASTLF.ILEAGH. was peisuaded the House felt that
this was a question which ought to be taken up by them on
its own merits, and that it ought -not to he taken up as a Go-
vernment question., But at the same time the Members of
his Majesty's Government were desirouS of giving their ut-
most exertions, and to aid in every way possible the investi-
gittion of this important subject. It was in the contempla.-
tion of a Right Hon. Friend of his. to prupose the ve-ap-
pointment of the Committee, and ht, hoped the Committee
would not part with the subject till they had something in the.
shape of a practical remedy to p: npose-to t lie. House.

THE DEAD ALIVE.

It seems the rumour that went round,
Of SEFTON'S death, untrue is found,
For he has frank'd a letter ;
The news must gratify his friends, -
As they, if once his Lordship mends,
May hope he will get better.

PA RLI AM r,N TA HY PAPERS.

of the Crown of Spain to purchase Slaves, or to carry on the
Slave Trade, on any part of the Coast of Africa, upon any
pretext or in any manner whatever; provided, however, that
a term of five months, from the said date of the 30th of May,
1820, shall be allowed for completing the voyages of vessels
which shall have cleared out lawfully previously to the 30th
of May.

the losses which are a necessary consequence of the abolition
of the said Traffic.

The articles rela►e chiefly to regulations
and imtructions. 'rimy are of minor importance.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' ACT.

. . . ,
MA.
.Enrrou,---Your Correspondents on the
Act of Insolvency have now brought their pro-
ceedings to an issue, which amounts almost to an
open declaration of' hostilities ; and although I
ant-no friend to discord, and ant aware that unity.
and disinterestedness are essentially requisite to
perfect any public undertaking, yet the truth is
often elicited by party contention, and in the pre-
sent case, I am of opinion that, while your Cor-
respondents remain *anomalous, the Public
derive great benefit from their dissensions ; for,
by mutual attacks and defences, the strength and .
weakness of their different positions will become •
manifest to that body whose intention it is to en-
quire- into the abuses existing under this Act :
continue, therefore, Sir, to encourage that ftee
discussion of this most important subj.ct, whichi
you hbve-so lami;.-14y and exclosively promoted,o
and yon•wiil at least merit the gratitude of every
class of society.
Front the. numerous communications of your
Correspondents, as well as from facts whielt
have become generally known, it most be evident
that many and grievous evils arise from the pre-
sent operation of the Act of Insolvency ; set;
clouded as its real:virtue is by- the machinations
of crafty and designing men, it is impossible not
to perceiVe its capability of being Made to pro.
duce the great advantages which were originally
intended to result from its execution : like the
working of a powerful steam-engine, the 'motion
is self-operative, and- requires but the aid of a
careful Attention to pour forth its benefi,s its
abtookisee to the waild ; but when that is denied
it, roin -and devastation are the consequence.

I am. unuilling that roguery should escape
from merited punishment, but I am still more un-
willing that honesty should decay in a prison, un-
heeded and unassisted.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC. 4:

SALMON V. THE PROPRIP.TOKS OF THE HOLYHEAD

MAIL.

The plaintiff, an attorney at Bath, sought to re-
cover the sum of 21. 17s. 611. from the defendants,
under the following citcomstances :—The plaintiff
having occasion to travel from Liverpool to Holy-
head, went by the defendants' coach. When
they arrived at Conway, the ferryman demanded
Gd. of the plaintiff for ferrying hint over. The
plaintiff reused to pay more than a penny, on the
ground that the tent yinan had no right to de-
mand more. The coachman hearing the dispute,
said he wotdd pay for the plaintiff, who said,--" It
you pay it, 1 will not pay you again." The coach-
man then said=" Oh, will yon not ? then I nut
off," and immediately drove away. The plain-
tiff, left at Conway, was Obliged to hire a pist-
chaise to proceed to Bangor, by which he in-
curred the expetice of 21. I7s. Gd. the sum be en-
denvonred by this action to recover.
John Jones, Ferryman at Conway, corroborat-
ed the above statement.

Air. Roberts, .Post•master at Conway, stated,
that Mr. Saipron was in a great passion. He said
the ferryman was an impostor, and lie would not
pay more than ond penny.
The CHIEr Jus•rtce annulled up, and sail--
"The demand of sixpence was, beyond a doubt,
illegal ; and it it should appear to the Jury there
was any collusion between the ferryman and the
coachman, the defendants were liable."

The Jury found a verdict for p!aiatiff—Denages
21. I is. 6(1.

As Conway Ferry is in the high-road from Li-
verpool to Holyhead, this decision t 3 of consider-
able importance to travellers.

[Morning Post.)

The recent appointment of the illustrious Wel-
lington to the Master-Generalship of the' Ord-
nance, appears in some degree founded on the
precedent of the great Duke ot Marlborough, (the
only Chieftain in the military history of this coun-
try whose merits admit of the slightest comparison
with those of the hero of the present age) who,
shortly after his signal defeat of the French and
Bavarians at Blenheim, had that high and im-
portant office conferred upon him.

[The Times.)
We have received Gazettes from Cape Henry
(St. Domingo) to the 27th September, and letters
to the 20th October. It is quite evident from
both these sources of information, that if the idea
of making an inroad into the territory of Boyer
ever entered the mind of Christophe, all thought
of carrying it into execution is for the present
abandoned. His whole care seems to centre in
.the restoration of Fort Ferrier, constructed as a
last place of refuge for himself and all his people,
after the injury it lately received by being struck
with lightning. We regret the despotic means
employed for this purpose, the more to be, depre-
cated, as they furnish an argument to those who
contend that slaves are not to be entrusted %yid)

power, or allowed to establish an independent
Qinvernment ; whilst, as a more definite and im-
mediate evil, the resources of the country are in-
jured ; the crops of coffee and other important
produce cannot be gathered, not -can the mer-
chants find hands to carry on their commercial
operaiions. Every thing (according to the pri-
vate accounts) was in a state of confusion and

anxiety.
Our private letter from Paris discourages the
notion of a speedy revolution in the French 111 i.
nistty, although some prospect is there held out
of a change in the distribution of the Ministerial
«offices, about or soon after the meeting of ihe
Chambers. The Election and Recruiting Law,
it k intimated, will be rigorously maintained by
Government, as they are described to be not only
conformable to the national feelings, but the pe-
culiar and favourite measures of the Ministry it-

The accounts from Paris are now looked for
%vitt) much anxiety, as the first two days of the
month, called by the monied men the liquidation
drys, are appropriated to the settlement of the
speculations of the month preceding. An express
which left the French capital on Wednesday, brings
intelligence generally, that the liquidation has
poseil over more quietly than had been expected;
that the weak holders of stock had received sup-
port ; and that no failures of any consequence
had taken placa.—(lbid.)
