ISLE OF ELY SESSIONS.

The only business of importance, and that particularly so to licensed
victuallers, was an appeal, wherein John Finch was appellant, and the
Rev. H. Fardell, the Rev. J. H. Sparke, the Rev. B. Sparke, and J.
Page, Esq. were respondents.
It appeared from the opening of Mr. Pryme, that Finch kept the
Chequers public-house in Ely, but the Magistrates at the last licensing
day refused the license but assigned no reason for so doing, in
consequence of which Finch gave notice of appeal. The following
evidence was given :—Thomas Gilbert, a labourer, lodged in the
house fourteen months. Slept out during that time only four
nights. Never came in after ten at night. The family always went to
bed between ten and eleven. Never saw or heard any disturbance.
The house was regularly and quietly conducted. William Langford
and John Shearman, both watchmen of the city of Ely, stated that the
Chequers was within their beat ; all was generally still and quiet at 11;
heard no disturbance or complaint during the last 12 months. Daniel
Holmes, a constable, heard nothing against the house for the last year;
witness was hired by Finch at fairs and statutes, to keep order. James
Barley, a gardener, lives within twenty yards of the Chequers; heard
nothing amiss the last twelve months. David Davies, a draper next
door, spoke to the same effect. Thos. Spooner, Esq. W. Layton, Esq.
Robert Dixon, Esq. churchwarden, Mr. Cheesewright, overseer, and
Mr. Thomas Wilson, all spoke to Finch's character, as a steady, sober,
and industrious man. - _ - - - . -

31r. Flannagluut insisted, in a lengthened speech, that the Act of Par.
lament (9 G. 4) gave the magistrates a discretionary power to refuse if
they thought proper, and that it was not to be supposed men of the
honour, learning, and integrity of the respondents, would exercise that
discretion wrongfully, or that any impure motive or spirit would Induce
them to withhold the license, if Finch was a proper person to have one.

The Learned Gentleman 'called no it itneaies:

The Court retired for soma time, and on their return granted the
license. The announcement was received with applause by a crowded
Court.

COVENT-GARDEN THEAI it Z.

The Opera of The Ottawa was repeated on Saturday night, with On.
same cast which attracted our notice a week ago. The exertions of the
new Clara, Miss Rosixit, were again most highly aucc.•ssful with the
audience, and confirmed our opinion of the means and tahnts ut' Int
young singer. She has only to pass with industry and assiduity ihrougS
the early stages of her profession, and they will lead her to certain cmi
nence. Mr. WILsoN improved his claims upon our admiration by his
extremely clever acting in the song. 44! sure a pair. ilia voice is
one of the purest tenors we have heard ; and of that quality which pene.
tastes without noise, and in its softest inflections is distinctly audible
throughout the theatre. Mrs. Grins, though following the greatest
actress of her time in the parts sbe assumed, is decidedly successful• in
the Drienna. KEELEY is not yet easy in the character of Ague. The
31ekslraina of The Blue Anchor has been improved, and is evidently
improving in the estimation of the judges for whose tastes it has chiefly
been providtd.

COLONIAL TRADE RILL.

Mr. P. THOMPSON said it was not the intention of his Majesty's
government to press this bill in it. present shape.

. .
Mr. BERRIES said he should offer no obstacle to the postpone-
ment.

Mr. ROBINSON lamented that the bill was to be delayed. The
interest of our colonies bad been sacrificed to concessions to the United
States. The Americans had presumed to tell us, what were our in-
terests, and what ought to be our principles of navigation. As to the
threatened reprisals of Americhwhat more could it do than it had done.
He wished to know whether :Mr. M•Lane had not re-opened,
the negotiation regarding Colonial Intercourse, and, daring to dictate
before the Board of Trade as to the duties we ought to impose. From
what he had this night heard from the Vice-President of the Board
of 'Trade, he feared that Mr. M'Lane had been but too
successful in inducing our ministers to re-open the negociation.—
If this were true, he would not hesitate to say that
it was a gross breach of faith. Hs wished also to ask the right hon.
gent. before him (Mr. Berries) whether he had not allowed a repre-
sentative to be sent out to the colonies, this at least for a time the
proposed scale would be acted upon.-4 Left sitting.]

SPIRT'[' OF THE JOURNALS.

Titens.—A hard battle, we can see, is likely to be made by the lovers
of "good things," against any encroachment on the grand preserve of
place, petition, and court patronage, hitherto enjoyed by a certain class
of British subjects. A gentleman, for such his language bespeaks him,
who signs himself "A real Economist," reproaches us with " constantly
crying out for retrenchment, and proclaiming it the panacea for our
grievances." This, taken as our correspondent puts it, is not correct.
We never pronounced retrenchment to be the panacea for our grievances,
but one merely among the sine pans non, to be resorted to as virtuous,
honest, and rational expedients for diruloishing the pressute of those
grievances ; parliamentary reform is another ; law reform a third ; a
revision of the poor laws, and abolition of the game laws, a total
repeal of the eorn law, a better distribution of nearly the whole body
of our taxes, and an entire release from some of them, with an over.
throw of all vile monopolies which enable individuals or knots of
men to rob the community in a master at once Insulting to the rights
of commerce, and ruinous to Its solid internal,—these we have long

LINIX MIDI Or 1131.1111 D.

Sir R. BATESON presonted a petition from Mr. A. Barlow, of
Dublin, complaining of the want of protection to the linen trade.
Mr. MABERLEY contended that Ireland had lost her linen trade;
he was not surprised at it—the trade had gone to Scotland and York.
shire. Till there was an end of agitation in Ireland, it would be in vain
to think of promoting the wealth of the country.
Sir J. BATESON said the petition only called for the tax on the
raw materials.

Mr. O'OORMAN MA HON denied that there was any agitation in
Ireland. Agitated as Ireland now was, was the poor labourer demand-
ing 2s. 6d. beading the magistrates, and burning the rood and pro-
WV.

Alderman WA ITHMAN complained of these extended discuuions.
He said he had a petition to present.

Mr. HUME said the linen trade was the subject before the house,
and lx maintained that trade shonid be kept free.

COBBITT.B PUBLICATION.

Lord PALEHSTON, In consequence of the absence of Lord Al.
chop, who had been called away in consequence of a family misfortune,
he had to beg the hon. gentleman to postpone his contemplated motion
regarding some publication.

Mr. R. TREVOR said, under such circumsta»ms he should post-
pone his motion.

Lord PALMERSTON thought that Thursday next would suit his
noble friend.—Motion postponed accordingly.

SECOND EDITION.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS-THIS DAY.

Petitions againefelavery were presented by the Brume of LONDON.
The Duke of DEVONSHIRE presented a petition from Youghall
in Ireland against the Repeal of the Union.
Lord KING presented several petitions for Reform in Parliament.
The petitioners also prayed for cheap law, cheap corn, cheap coals,
and cheap government. The noble lord said that if the represen-
tation of England was bad, that of Scotland was a perfect
farce. The petitions, which were from Arbroath, the magistrates,
justices, merchants, bankers, and others, of Renfrew, in Scotland. The
petition was signed on the part of the county by Sir John Maxwell,
and it spoke the feelings of that populous shire.
The Earl of H ADDINGTON moved that the petition be read at
length by the clerk, which was done accordingly. Earl E. thought
that the noble lord who presented the petition would withdraw
it in consequeoce of its not being worded in proper language. If the
noble lord should not withdraw it, he (Earl Haddington) should move
it be rejected.
Lord KING said that he admitted there was some parts of the peti-
tion worded in an unaccountable language: still he thought the spirit
of it wee unobjectionable.

Lcrd DUNCAN, in supporting the petition, said that the rcpresen-
tation of Scotland called loudly for reform. The election fianchise for
the whole country, did not exceed to more than 3,500 persons.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—This D.Y.

Mr. GREEN presented the report of the lichester Election Com-
mittee; and that the sitting members were duly returned.
Mr. LEADER moved for a ucw writ for Beeraiston, in the room of
Lord Louvain, now Earl Beverley.
The SPEAKER observed that there was no proof before the house
that the seat was vaera. Ile understood that the noble lord was in
Rome, which caused some delay in his being called up to the House of
Peers, which calling would be the best proof of the scat being vacant.
Mr. LEADER tt,ereupon withdrew his motion.
DUTY ON PAINTED CALICOES.

Mr. PATTEN presented a petition from Manchester, for the re.
peal of the duty on printed calicoes.

Mr. HUMS availed himself of this opportunity to observe. that
the poor woman's petticoat was taxed sixty per cent, while the lady's
dress paid but five per cent.

31r. GREEN presented a similar petition from the spinners of Lan-
cashire.
Mr. WYSE presented five petitions from Tipperary, for the Repeal
of the legislative Union as a remedy for the deep distress of Ireland.
London, England, 1830-12-17

SCOTCH BOROUGH&

Lord NAPIF.R motel for returns relating to Scotch boroughs, with
a ♦icw to reform in the same; but In consequence of some doubts ex-
pressed by Lord Rosslyn and the Lord Chancellor, upon the pospibility
of obtaining the information tequired, the noble lord postponed his
motion.

THE LATE STEEPLE CHASE.

The match, of which we gave only the remit yesterday, provrd
highly attractive, the attendance bon.; es.c.ssiing numerous and
fashionable. At the same time that it aas any thing but turceisfae.
tory to the spectators, it was entirely conclusive of the merit,* of the
horses ; for nothing could !nave beet more complete titan the defeat
sustained by Messrs. Wombwell and Augentein. The ground was
kept a secret till the morning of the rate, when it was declared to
be from a grass-field of Mr. Wood's, at (Steyr-street, to a wird.
mill on Basker.heath, near the 13th mile-store on the Edgeware.
road, the distance nearly the inihs, Ott grout d grassy, but heavy,
and the fencing tolerably stiff, wi hot b.ing extria,rdinary.
betting was 8 to 4 agat VS'order; 2 to I art Mr. Wombwell'. Rock-
ingham ; and 3to 1 agat Toler. Captain Al-Douai' went off with
Wonder at a smart race. leading about 200 yards ; Blr A. Berkeley,
on Rockingham, and Mr. Codrington, on Tatler, followed in the
same track, and seemed inclined to keep so throughout. It ap-
peared to us that the pliant captain's tonic threatened to he more
out of the direct line than was warranted by the =tides, but he
saved himself just in time. Probably Wonder was frightened out
of his course by a red flag which auddsnly presented itself in a tree,
right in the line for the windmill, and which, of course. got there by
accident. It would be absurd to attcniFt any further description;
for Wonder had it all his own way. wrfortned his lops in a par.
ticularly neat and workmanlike manner, ant" won in a common can-
ter. His last leap was near the finish, over a Pr artish fence,
and was effected without a blunder. Captain Al'Douall's riding
was admirable ; nothing could be more cool or sportsmanlike.
and at the same time it was not wanting in courage. (It
the riding of the other gentlemen we really are incompetent to
express an opinion, for, looking to the leading hope, we never saw
any thing of them after the opening. Colonel Standen (the umpire)
and Lord Clanricarde kept up well with the winner, and woull
perhaps have pugged him if thee had been in the match—they
rode with singular intrepidity. Wonder is a particularly clever
little hone, and would put some of the Mahon nags upon their met-
tle. Tatler is the same hone that was so great a favourite for the
Derby two or three yews ago, and was prevented starting by break-
ing down on his way so Epsom s he went about two miles of the
gemend, broke down, aril-fell in the middle ea field near the Re-
Knelt; neithee bin for Itoethigham going to Me Windmill—the
latter certainly ilia the best of Tatter. The stakes was 100 guineas
each, and the weight 12st.; the distance was performed by Captau.
.31-Douall in about seventeen minutes. Prince Esterhasy was among
I the spectators, and appearal glatified with the scene.

The accond division of the 56th, front Birr, marched in yester.
day, under the command of 5/ajor Gun.
The Pompadours were last quartered in Limerick in 1803, and in
1803 the regiment embarked at Cork for India, and returned home
in 11126.

The following detachments of the 66th Regiment have matched
this week to out-quarters to replace the Rifles:—
Captain Arthure's company to Newcastle, in this county.
4ieptain Vicars' company to Killaloe.
Captain Mitchell's co:npany'to Ennistimon. •
Captain ;Leighton's con pant to liathkeale, Captain Eden and
Lieutenant Kenny to Bruft; Carain Hogg to Glenesheen, and
Lieutenant Aylmer to Corofin.

This is done, fearing petitions.
(in this subject, the Dublin Morning Register contains the fol-
lowing paragraph :
It Is stated, that should this gentleman (Mr. Callaghan) be sue.
ceasful in the present contest for Cork, still, that upon petition his
election must be declared void, not as a partner with his brother the
' ex-member in the firm, and, therefore, as a person included in the
Contract, upon which the late return became void, but as a surety for
the said brother in the victualling office. This liability, as surety,
it is asserted on good authority, brings him within the provisions of
the act of Parliament.

MANAGEMENT; OR, RAISING THE WIND.
T N Boots that reflected each form like a glass,
1 A joker enjoy'd at an Inn a good dinner;
11,it who can avert evil fortune ? *lns !
No blunt in the locker, this pennyless sinner,
jeopardy plac'd for his grub, left his coat,
And thus on adventure was usher'd afloat.
A surtout was left, which he bution'd close round him,
A. d soon as a guest a new inn-keeper found him.
Ile supp'd, drank his grog, went to bed, and pursuits
Of Management dream'd, of the wind how to raise,
When tnter'd a monkey, as rose the sun's rays,

And bore off in triumph Iris-Mirror-like Boots.
(V raising the wind dispossess'd then of fears,
lir rang an alarm in the inn-keeper's ears,
Who scamper'd up stairs in surprise and affright
• I'm rohb'd,' cried the guest, 'of my Boots, in the night,
And coat., that contain'd in bank-notes twenty pounds.'
This story the credulous landlord confounds ;
Who forth with the speed of an arrow now shoots,
Then quickly returns with a new coat and boots;
And twenty pounds pays, his guest's loss to replace,
And save thus his house from impending disgrace.
The straneer contented, his exit then made,
And Pug was :.00n found in the bright Boots array's' ;
When came the first Vintner, with whom it now seened
The Joker had Len, and his garment redeem'd.
The wily manceuerist made good his retreat,
And but for the ape had not thought of the feat,

And still at the Inn 'tis a subject replete,
With joke, when the townsmen or travellers meet,

lr•-••DT:':17Y SOCIETY.

twelfth ononol meetittg of I:i6titittiOn vas
belt! ;..etirday ar the Freemasons' Tavern. Among the company
Mr Lot ic.i! the Earl of Hardwicke, Lord Bexley, Lord Radstock,
Lord :k linersdale, the Hon. lie. Arden, the Hon. C. J Shore,
At one „clock the Earl of HARDIVICILE took the Clair; o.:
which the report was read. It states that the proceedings ut•
' the year went to prove the safety and propriety with which
street beggars might be left to the attention of the Society.—
The total number of cases registered for iusestigation had
been thminished from 1,284 to 671 during the last year, whilst,
in the same period, the cases entered on the books had in.
enased from 5,297 to 8,566, consisting at applicants from
every quarter of the globe, who had been relieved, some of
whose case* were of the most distressing nature. The min.ber of
Irish applications had considerably increased, the total being, in
1838, 2,816 ; and in 1829, 3,656 ; and the Society felt themselves
bound to suggest some legislative enactment to prevent this annual
incursion. The mill and dressing machine for the employment of
vagrants had been used, except in the late cold weather, when the IT-
plicathms were so numerous that its operations were suspended foe
that peri : this was an excellent mode to distieguish the idle from
the incustrlous ; out of 1,8 0 men employed in this way, 207 ab-
sconded ; and out of 562 women, 105 ran away rather than work.
although each had only to work three hours per day for a meal.—
The Society had diminished their expensesby the dismissal of sonic
of their constables. One-third of the persons taken before the Ma-
gistrates had been apprehended by the Society's officers, and a great
decrease of street vagrancy had been noticed since the introduction
of the metropolitan police.
The Han. Mr. Sumas and Lord Beximr spoke in high terms
of the Society, and expressed their satisfaction with the report.
Lords SZELMEREIDALE and RADSTOCIL delivered their eemi-
ments in the saute strain.

Captain BILLITON, R.N. felt satisfied with the proceedings of
the Society, but was confident that nothing but agricultural employ-
ment would tend to ameliorate the condition of the.poor. The relit!'
afforded by the Committee was of great advantage, and lie admired
their system ; but he contended against the argument that agricul-
tural employment would tend to Increase the population. He knew
from experience that it would afford goat benefit to an classes.
Sevetal other gentlemen delivered their sentiments ; and thank•
having been voted to the Noble Chairman, a collection was made,
and the meeting separated.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

SIR,—As your paper has long been regarded a., th
principle vehicle for Portuguese intelligence, it may
prove uninteresting or unimportant for many of 0i:-
readers to know, that the debentures lately giveu L,
Excellency Don THOMAS MASCARENHAS, her f.tith:a
MAJESTY'S Chamberlain and Minister, in payment 0.
the bills and unsettled accounts of the Regency, u
lately proceeded to Terceira, are not valid in this count:,
I without they be stamped : and unless they are present
1 at the Stamp Office within twenty days from their time, t
fine of L 5. in each case, will be exacted by the
1 missioners, according to Act of Parliament.

No doubt Senhor 11LtscAwExii.ts, on issuing tiles',
debentures, was not aware of their illegality, as being- ,),1
unstamped paper ; but it will be unjust on his part
refuse paying the indispensable cost of the stamps, fo:
they are not like foreign bonds : they are both dated 41,1
made payable in London.
