FUNERAL OF LORD FORRESTER.

We mentioned briefly yesterday that the remains of
this Nobleman were that morning removed from his
residence in Belgrave-stre:t, Pimlico, for the purpose of
being conveyed to the cemetery of the family, near
Browsley, Salop. The following is a more detailed
account of the solemnity :
At nine o'clock the mournful procession was formed,
and the coffin (which was covered with crimson vel-
vet), containing the corpse of the deceased Nobleman,
was placed in the hearse. The procession then moved:
six rtige, on horseback led the way, followed by a page
I,eali..g a corouet on a cushion ; next came the hearse,
drawn by six horses, two mourning coaches and six (in
which were the principal domestics of the late Lord),
,the town carriage and travelling chariot of the deceased,
the servants in mourning, with crape hatbands, and the
beescs caparisoned with black velvet; the carriage of
be Honourable Mr. Smith (brother-in-law of the
.eceased), the servants dressed in mourning, end
„lose of the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, and up-
xards of forty of the Nobility and Gentry, who were
rather relatives of the deceased, or were his intimate

fiends.
Among them were those of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the
puke of Rutland, the Duchess of Rutland, the Duke of Beaufort,
the Duke of Grafton, the Duke of Purism', the Marquis of Sails.
bury, the Dowager Marchioness of Salisbury, the Marquis of
Vinchwer. the Marquis of Cleveland, Alarquis of Worcester,
Farl of Scarborough, Earl of Shaftesbury, Earl Jersey, Earl Powis,
Viscount (live, Lord Carrington, the Lords Manners, the Lords
Somerset, the Speaker of the House of Commons.

The arrangements for regulating the numerous as-
semblage of carriages were very complete, and every
thing was conducted with the greatest regularity, under
•iie supes inteaciance of Mr. Robins. The whole of the
servants had gloves and silk hat bands.
Tnwnshend, the officer, was in attendance, and mar-
shaPed the numerous equipages in the order of the pro-
cession.

The procession passed through Chapel-street, Gros-
veilor-place, Piccadilly, Quadrant, Regent-street, Port•
Lind-place, and Regent's-park, in which the cavalcade
halted, opposite to the Barracks. The carriages of the
Nobility and Gentry here lett the procession.
His Lordship was in his 61st year, was married to
'the sister of the Duke of Rutland, and ha; left a fa-

milt' of ten children. His Lordship was one of the
oldest priv4te friends of the King, and one of his Ma-
jesty's carriages would doubtless have followed, mere
it not unprecedented that any of his Majesty's carriages
should be sent to the funeral of any subject not related
to the Sovereign.
The body will lie in state one day at his Lordship's
seat, and will be interred on Thursday next; the Dukes
of Rutland and Gratton, and the male relAtives of the
deceased, will be present.

Yesterday Fraacisco Viral., and auvanni 3fazzorani, the two
foreigners who were detat:.ed in custody on suspicion lit brills con-
cerned n the robbery of :SWARM Schutz, were brought before the
Magistrates at thisOffi ce tot further examination. Signor Schutz
said tie had nu reason to suspect either of the prisoners, except
through the eicreasion ul the boy Tagliano, and the tact of Visa-
Mu. hiving brought him a letter from Tagliano, containing one of
the stolen 101. notes. The Magistrates said, that Tagliano being an
admitted thief, his evidence was but sufficient to charge any one
Alazzarani acknowledged that he had been acquainted with Viga-
nio and Taglrauo. On the night of the robbery hr met Tagliano in
the Haymarket, and he had then a bundle under his arm. Signor
Schutz said that the buy was then going to the King's Theatre with
Nlaslanie Schutz', dress. The letter from Tagliano to Viganio was
then read, and from which it appeared that after sending the 101.
note to the Later, he had btill upwards of 3UOI. left. This letter
was a direct contradiction to Taghano'd confession, and the Ma.
gistrates said they should nut detain the prisoners any longer, and
they were discharged.
WORSHIP—STREET.

Yesterday Dominick Feeley, formerly landlord of the Coopers'
Arms, in Crown-street, Finsbury, was finally examined, charged
with bigamy. His marriage with the widow Griffiths, at Shore-
ditch Church, some months ago, and the marriage in May, 1812,
with Jane Cowley, at St. Andrew's, Holborn, were proved from
the parish registers. The first wife was present, and identified by
one throb Smith, who gave a substantial reason for remembering
the wedding, viz. they had a " pig supper " on the wedding night,
and she drank whisky with the bride both before and afterwards.
The wedding was celebrated in that rural spot-:-.Saffron-hill, where
the bride then resided.—Dominick was committed for trial.

Extract of a letter from Madeira, 2§d April We
arrived here six days ago. after a rough passage of 2t)
days from Liverpool. The Chili having on board sd
much more than her tonnage, was so deep, that even in
calm weather the decks were under water, and in a gale,
carrying press of sail, she never made more than sir
knots. Here we discharge 200 tons of the Cargo, sd

whose kind hospitality I am enjoying) is a littb!te..

The sea washes the outward wall, yet the cottage is in
the midst of a luxuriant garden, entirely canopied frca

trained over trellice works, whilst under it there are
rich crimson and pink geraniums, growing to the
height of six feet. Madeira is certainly a much desir-
able residence—the climate k most agreeable, only
pleasantly warm."

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, MAT 29.

RICHARD CARNET AGAINST A CONVICTION 01
lIROUGHTON, SSG.
Mr. ALLEY for the respondent opened the case. by
stating that the appellant WAS the pi opt tetor of premises
for the boiling of offal, in Nes...court, Hackney-toad,
and that having conducted his business so as to render
it a nuisance to the neighbourhoud, complaint was made
to the Commissioners of Prvements, who brought the
matter before G e Magistrates of the Worship-street
Office, when the appellant ,was c.snvicted of a nuisance,
and filed accordingly. The conviction was under thr
Street Act,conmonly known as MichaelAngeloTaylor's.
Mr. Wirgrove, Surveyor of Pavements, proved 111,4
the bu iness was a nuisance, from the offensive smell
which issued from the premises, when the boiling pro-
cess was going oa, as also horn the pools of blo.id and
putrid matte: which were allowed to remain before the
doer.—Otter witnesses spoke to the same effect.
Mr. ADOLPHUS, for appellant, attempted first to
show that the place was not under the comroul of the
Commissioners, and next, that the nuisance was only
temporary, and arose from the stoppage of a drain;
which having since been opened and cleansed, the nui-
sance had ceased to exist. On both these points
witnesses failed him, and the conviction was come.
quently affirmed.
Six true bills for uttering forged Bank of England
notes have been found by the Grand Jury for Middlesex
against the uidiany Gentleman calling frnmelt Capt.

So that the increase of the imports during the three
years of low duties over the three years of high duties,
is 40 per cent., while that of the exports is on, y 5 pew
cent. It may indeed be said that 1825 was a yea' trove
which no rule can be drawn ; and we admit t •is. But
raking the year ending the sth of January la t as a hat
medium, still there is an increase of above 30 reccent.•
cet off by an increase of 5 per cent. The a`)ove are the
official values, which are only useful for comparison.
The declared or real values of exports during the two

According to the offiall value, • theief re, there is
only an increase of five per cent., while by the real va•
lue there is a decrease of ten per cent. We h-ore given
the above, however, merely as confirmtog the former
one, and we consider ourselves jostified in concluding
from both, that while tjte imposts of forei,.n w0,.1 have
been, during the two periods, as 100 and 180, the .eit.
pints of woollen goods have been only as 100 an,l 105.
There is but one way of accounting f .t this differences
—Home grown wool to an equal anse.unt has been
drivtn out of the market. On the impolicy, upon.
general principles, of encouraging the im.
raw material, which our own hills produce in abun-
dance, there can, we should suppose, be tery tittle dis-
pute ; but where the importation is attended w.th so
earthly advantage, ti e encouragement of tt is 'tot only.
impolitic, but positively absurd. Had the rotroufac-
turers teceived what the fArmers have lost, tie question
might have been more difficult of stiiution, hu solely
there can be but lisle difficulty where- it is obvious that
the lop of the one h4o not been coootorbalaoced by any
I profit of the other.
London, England, 1828-05-06

The Earl of MALMESBURY thought his Noble
*Friend had rather misconceived the object of the Corn. •
mittee. It was merely to inquire into the present state
of .she wool trade. He could show by the returns,
that the exportation of British manufactured wool had
Idirrainishisli and the importation of foreign raw wool
bad greatly encreased.' As the Noble Duke had well
observed,. the price of wool was about the same now as
forty years ago. The quantity of foreign Wool imported,
had encrealed in nine years from forty-two millions
of pounds to eighty-nine millions. In 1819, when the
new lights of free trade first burst spot) them, the ar-
gument employed was, that the manufacturers were
making a saclike by consenting to the export of Bri-
tish wool, arid. that the wocl growers ought also to
make at sacrifice by consenting io the import of foreign
wool. They both, as' it had since appeared, had made
a sacrifice which had produced no la, neficial return to
either. The manufacture for exportation had declined,
and the business of the wool grower had been entirely
ruined.
Lord WFIARNCLIFFE, with great deference to the
opinions of the Noble !Jake (Wellington), could not
agree with him that it was right to appoint a Com-
mittee of this description. There was a Board of Trade
expressly appointed for the purpose of inquiring into
these matters; and he could nr.t.understend why the
parties could not lay before it those statements which
Ithey now required to be beard• by a Committee -of the
House of Lords. If they could satisfy the Board that
some alteration ought to be made, then it would be the
duty of his Majesty's Government. to take up the ques-
tion; but until they did so, lie thought there could not
be a more injurious course with regard to its effect upon
the woollen trade, than that which they were now about
to pursue. If, too, there was any one time more in-
convenient than another for entering upon such inquiry
by a Parliamentary Committee, it was this very period.
The manufacturers Were now about to set out to make
their purchases in the SprinilFairs of the Continent, and
the consequence must ,be,akall business or specula-
tion will be at a stand &ring the progress of this in-.
quiry. Their Lordships Might probably imagine that
:these things-were little more than a mere matter of
conversation in the House ofLOtda;.but there was not
a hew or a cottage the empire into which the Re-
port of their determination, to make these inguirieis
would not enter, and upon the proceedings of the in-
mates of which, if connected with the .trade in wool,.
would not have an , injurious effect. He was, for his.
part, thoroughly satisfied, that the greater the gratuity
of foreign wool which came into this country, so much
she better must it be for the.. British wool grosser. It
~was a sell known fact, that almost the whole-of the
Southdown wools now produced in this country, are
totally unlit for .use, unless mixed up with foreipri—

We learn from Malta, that by the care of the Eitglish
Government the propagation of the cochineal has been
introduced into that island, and promoted by ail kinds
of support ; this precious insect, brought for the fits
time hom India to Italy, is propagated with success in
two of the most favourable situations in the island, viz.
at Zeitun, and in the gardens of the Palace of St. An-
tonio. The Goves nor has also taken measures that
plantations of the Indian fig shall be made in all the
gardens, as being the plant on which the insect usually
feeds. There is no doubt that both the tree and the
insect •ill thrive well in this climate, which is perfectly
adapted. to them, and that this new and lucrative branch
of commerce will prove extremely advantageous to the

*dint accusation of adultery; and lastly, accusation
of an offence,apiost annuls, by tbq parties who signed
the sale of the wife. Thy latter was condemned to four
years'imprisoninent, and a fine of 36 francs ; the seducer
to one years imprisonnsente.The husband anJ the parties
wbn signed the instrument were acquitted.
The wife asserted an appeal ; Montigny, the seducer.,
did the same; and the Attorney-General thought pro.l
per also to tike the same course against the decision
which absolved the persons who signed the instruments
of the charge of an offence against moral•.
On behalf of the wile, as welt as her accomplice, it
was maintained, that even if the adultery was proved,
the action of the hu;band could not be su.tained ; that,
being reconciled to his wife, with a perfect knowledge
of the wrong offered to his honour, he was debarred
from the suit.

In respect to the robbery, it was alleged, on behalf
of the wife, that no credit should be given to the in-
terested declaration of the seducer, provoked by an un-
generous feeling.
The Count discharged the wife and Montigny, the
seducer, from the sentence pronounced against them for
adultery in chief ; and confirmed the sentence pro-
ndunced against the wife for adultery and theft, and
condemdid her to four years imprisonment, and a fine
of sixteen francs—rejecting the appeal of the Attorney
General.
