however, still oppose their venomous hostility, and the prejudice
of weak minds, in some measure, encourages their audacity. As
Truth is to Falsehood—so rosy our public statements be com-

in a.class of Diseases which entlaner the mystic evolutions of
Nature. To be brief: we are Members of the London Col-

upon the success of Twenty Years' practical experience, and an-
nounee the grateltil testimony of those in whom long suffering
had nearly extinguished every hope of relief.
We pledge ourselves to the removal of Syphilis, from it

every doubt and whatever malignancy. The intricate and

WINTER HOME CIRCUIT'.

CLIF.LMSFQRD, DECEMBER 12.

John Bishop was indicted under the Stature 57
Geo. 111. cap. 9, sec. 1, for entering a close in the
Parish of Halsted, in the night time of the 31st of
October, armed with a bludgeon, with intent to kill
and destroy game.
The evidence adduced proved the body of the
crime, except as to the bludgeon, which was nothing
wore than a coursing pole.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY left it to the Jury to consider
whether the instrument produced answered the de-
scription of a bludgeon, telling them that, unless the
instrument was properly described, they were bound
to find the defendant Not Guilty.

The Jury found the defendant Not Guilty.
There was no count in the indictment which de.'
scribed the instrument to be an " offensive weapon,"
within the language of this highly penal statute.—
The prosecutors afterwards preferred another bill to
the Grand Jury against the prisoner fur the very
same offence.

William Taylor and Samuel Bird were indicted for
stealing, on the sth September, at Weeley, a sheep,
the property of G. G. H. Mannings.
The only thing remarkable in this case was, that
the infant son and daughter of Taylor were called to
prove their father's guilt. The unhappy children
came into the witness box overwhelmed with grief;
but nothing could be elicited from them to criminate
their parent. They totally denied what they were
supposed to have stated before the committing Ma-
gistrates. The rest of the case depended upon strong
circumstances of suspicion. It appeared that the
greater part of the carcase of a sheep was found cut
up and salted in Taylor's house ; that in a dung-heap
near his house the skin of a sheep, answering the de-
scription of that lost by the prosecutor, was found,
together with some bones, corresponding with other
bones of a sheep discovered in the prisoner's habita-
tion.—There was no proof whatever to affect the
other prisoner.
The Jury found both prisoners Not Guilty.
John Sumner was convicted of a burglary in the
dwelling-house of William Bright, in the night of
the 12th of November, at Great Waltham, and steal-
ing therein three sheets, two shirts, and some other
articles of trifling value, and received sentence ot death.
Thomas Wakeling, an old offender, who was stated
to have been thirty-five times a sojourner in the
County Jail or House of Correction, was indicted for
defrauding the parish officers of Great Waltham of a
pair of shoes, by falsely pretending that he could
not work as a parish pauper, without a pair of
, shoes, falsely pretending that he (the prisoner) was al-
most barefoot, the fact being, that he had in his pos-
session, at the same time, three pairs of new shoes,
and a very extensive wardrobe of very good clothes,
and was at the same time receiving a shilling a day
from the parish.
The case was clearly made out against the prisoner,
and he was sentenced to eight months' imprisonment
and hard labour in the House of Correction.
James Green and Benjamin Palleit were indicted
for a burglary in the dwelling-house of the Rev.. Sa-
muel Palmer, at Chigwell, in the night of the 31st
of October. and stealing therein a gun, a bunch of
keys, and other property. There was no proof that
the breaking was actually in the night time; but the
evidence of the larceny being clear, the prisoners
were found Guilty of that offence only, and sen-
tenced to six months imprisonment and hard labour
in the House of Correction. _ _ _

John Blake was indicted under the late Poaching
Act, for being found in a close, armed with a blud-
geon, with intent to kill game, in the night of the
Ist of December.
Mr. JESSOP was for the prosecution. The point in
the case was, whether the implement found in the
possession of the prisoner answered the description
given of it in the indictment.
The Jury decided that it was not a bludgeon, and
found the prisoner Not Guilty.—This was the third
indictment against as many alleged offenders under
this Statute, in-which the same result followed.

Robert Gray was indicted for stealing at Braintree,
on the 15th of June, four 51. notes from the person of
James Dodd, a boy of fourteen, the property of Sa-
muel Vale. The case was clearly made out in evi-
dence. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced
to be transported for the term of his natural life.

John Purter was convicted before the Magistrates
at Gateshead, on Wednesday se'nnight, in the penalty
of 41)s. for cruelly and inhumanly dragging the tongue
out of a horse at Eighton quarries; not being able to
pay the penalty, he was committed to hard labour in
the House of Correction at Durham for a month.*
Extract of a letter teceived by a respectable met.,
caotile house in Manchester, dated Calcutta, June 8:
--, The importations of neatly all descriptions of
English manufactut es have been far too heavy. Wool-
s are for the present nearly unsaleable, and too
ge a stock has accumulated to leave any hope of
iprovement in pi ices, even when some revival takes
ice in the demand. Cotton goods are in a similar
Muslins are just now pouring in still more
indantly than prints, and if the ships continue to

E A ST-INDIES.

By his Majesty's ship LEANDER, from India, we
have received some intelligence of-rather a later date
than the [weeding arrivals. The following are ex-
tracts :--
CALCUTTA, JULY 2.—• SURVEY OF SIM:MOJA 11.--•
Orders have lately been given for the institution of
a survey of Sirgoojah. This' country is almost un-
known-to us, but individuals who have visited it teH
present. it_to contain a lofty table land, called Myn
Pat, besides the sources of several considerable rivers,
among which the Hudsoo is the most important.
The province in question is said also to contain many
beautiful and romantic valleys, while to' the Myn
Pat above described, is given almost every variety of
soil and climate. The district of Mohree, a part of
Sirgoojah, is important in a military pointif view, as
commanding the only pass (called the Pushtoo), into
the Company's provinces in that direction. Captain
Fergusson of the 4th Native Infantry, has been ap-
pointed to conduct this survey.
FORT-WILLIAM, JUNE 29.—Government has re-
vised the statute respecting pecuniary rewards to
Civil Students in the College of Fort William, with
the following modification and additioit. Every stu-
dent who may be reported by the Examiner, to have
attained high proficiency in any of the languages
taught in the College, shall receive a cei tificate, under
the signature of the Members of the College Conn-
ell, of his having done so, and shall further Ire enti-
tled to a donation of 800 sicca rupees. In cases of
extraordinary proficiency in any of the languages
taught in the College, a diploma will he granted in
testimony of the same, to be denominated a degree
of honour. under the signature of the visitor for such
extraordinary proficiency, and the 'student obtaining
such distinction will receive a reward of 1,600 sicca
rupees.
No studcnt will receive two pecuniary rewards on
account of the same language ; but any student, who
after receiving a certificate of high proficiency, may
become entitled to a degree of honour for extraor-
dinary proficiency, will be entitled to the difference
botween the rewards attached to the two degrees of
proficiency.
Earthquake at Commillah, Zillah, Tipperah—At a
quarter past ten o'clock at night, when the moon was
particularly bright, and the sky remarkably serene
and clear, we had a slight shock of earthquake here,
passing from east to west. It lasted one minute and
forty seconds", and did no other damage, than occa-
sioning great sickness to all persons within its influence.
