TO THE LIVERY OF LONDON. •
GENTLIXOI,
FRIDAY at Noon is appointed for the Nomination
of your Representatives to Parliament, allow me respectfully
to entreat the favour of your early attendance and continued support
—on that support I cheerfully and gladly depend. They are not truly
acquainted with your character, who suppose that you manifest
caprice or fickleness towards those to whom your confidence has been
glen. My attachment to Constitutional Liberty—my attention to
the welfare of the Corporation-mand to my official duties as Sheriff,
Alderman, and Chief Magistrate—and my zealous labours in
favour of local and general improvement—first obtained for me
that confidence which I received with graltude, and have uni-
formly endeavoured to preserve. My Canvass has been necessarily,
though reluctantly, limited ; but I have every where found that
my independence, my firm adherence to principle, and my constant
solicitude to pi mote the Corporate, Shipping, Manufacturing, and
Trading Interests of this Metropolis, have produced the most gra-
Cring effect, and obtained from Persons of all denominations,
and all Parties, the warmest assurances of support. The speedy
Nlfilment of those promises I now with respect and confidence
invite; and deeply impressed with your, past kindness,, and per-
ic:::y devoted to your future service,
I remain, Gentlemen,
Your faithful and much, obliged friend and servant,

him to outlawry for the recovery of it, although at th
moment he so proceeded he knew very well where Mr.
Cresswell was to be found. The relatives of the latter
dying during these proceedings, the parties proceeded
against him, and were taking out ejectments to serve
upon tenants on the estates, which were in Surrey and
Gloucestershire. In this situation, he applied to the
Court of Chancery. for an injuncti ,n, but tl•re he was
stopped at once by a plea in bar—the outlawry. That,
however, had since b-en set aside, and relief was now
sought in this C9utt (Common Pleas), nut ct which the
judgmenthad been originally sued, as having an equit-
able jurisdiction in the cause. Four of these pictures
remained in Mr. Cresiwell's hands, and though these
were given to him as worth 1,000/. there were affidavits
from Mr. Christie and other comp..teut judges to chew
that their value did not exceed 851. and that they were
very bad copies. The present demand of the plaintiff
against 'he defendant was stated to he no less than 80001.

The LOAD Cum, Juvtic■ inquired' whether the cause was still
pending in the Court of Chaneory,and was informed in the negative.
A rule nisi was then granted by the Court, but on the condition
that no concurrent proceeding was pending in another Court.
COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Jitria 7.

After hearing a few motions of no interest, the Court
rose, and the CIIIEF BARON went to preside at tie
quity side, whete a tithe cause was heard, in which the
question at issue was whether underwn'id w..s t:thable.

It was strongly contendei that by the Common Law it
was, and that all the authorities and decisions supported
that propositi in, unless where, by a particular custotn,
it happened to be exempted.
The Clair Baum said he should carefully look into the ease,
and, if he found any difficulty in forming his opinion, he would
constdt the other Judges of the Court.

JEALOUSY AND ASSAULZ—Mr. Lysol;4, a well drrs•rd voting man,
the landlord of the Ctooked Billet 'favern, corner of Wych street,
St. Clement's Church-yard, Strand, who is the son (as he stated)
of a Banker of Tunbridge, was charged with commuting a desperate
assault on the person of a man named Burdy, a compositor.
Burdy, and two young men of the same profession, gave evidence
to the following effect :

They were drinking in Mr. Lynch's parlour on Tuesday night,
about the hour of ten o'clock, and some worth arose about a com-
positor, who was accmed of being too intim Ite with a female re-
siding in the house, and related to Mr. Lyi:ch. In the course of
thefraens, Mr. Lynch ordered Burdy to quit the house. He re.
fused till he had finished his liquor, and Lynch seized a poker and
struck him on the head a violent blow. The persona present inter.
feted, and prevented Lynch front repeating the blow, and wrested
the poker from his grasp. Lynch went into his bar, and returned
lin a very infuriated state, with an instrument in his band, when
1 the witnesses described as a dirk or long case knife, with which he
made a lunge at Burdy, and but for the prompt interference of the
printers, and some coal•heavers who were fetched out of the tap.
room, he would have plunged it into Burdy.
Mr. Lynch stated, that he was justified in what he had done, and
I he should do the like again under similar circumstances. He should
not have assaulted Burdy, had be not called his (Lynch'a) wife a
w--e.—Burdy declared in the most solemn manner, that be did
not apply any epithet whatever to Mrs. Lynch ; and if he had called
her by such a name, he should have deserved the treatment he had
met with.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Jury 7.
FORTH V.BURKe.

The defendant in this case drew two promissory notes
in favour of the plaintiff, one for 1001. at two years; the
other for 2001. payable in four years, " if .1 live." When
the first became due, he paid 501. declaring himself
unable then to pay the remaining 501. The plaintiff ac-
cordingly sued him now for both sums, as the four years
were expired (deducting the SCI. received in part pay-
ment of the first note).

The CAMP Janice refused to admit the note drawn for four
ears—fuse--to be legally binding; and accordingly the Jury
found a verdict for the defendant on that count ; and for the plain-
tiff on tie promissory note payable bi two years.
ICIIENZ AND 80118 V. A. MARTIN, ESQ. (late M.P.)
The subject of this action was a bill of exchange for
2401. drawn by the plaintiffs nn the defendant. Ex-
ceptions were t4ken against a verdict for the plaintiffs?,
on t•te ground -that the defendant's hand-wliting bad
not been proved.
The Court, however, declared the defendant's admission of tke
debt, and of his willingness to renew the bill (both proved in evis
dente) were sufficient grounds for the Jury finding for the plaintiff.

Upon the examination of his body after death, the lungs

His ribs had been broken and pressed inwards. The

been committed that morning, to the house, 20, in
Qireee-street, and there saw the deceised lying dead on
a table; he then proceeded to the parish workhou,e,
where he sa'w Mrs. Ann Browne. She appeased then
quite ch.ranged, from her look and manner ; he under.
stood that a strait waistcoat was about to be pot on her,
bat she soon became calmer; and in about twu hours
after, when he wai conveying tpr to Nlarlbor, u4h-
rtreet Police.office, the was quite calm and collected.
She told him, while conveying her along in the coach,
that she knew not what urged her to commit the act; she
saw the child asleep in and, without knowing w hat
she was doing at the time, she turned it round on the
side of the bed, and taking up a knife, sire beli.ved a
carving-knife, that lay on the table, she cut the vor
child's head off, quite uncontci,irs at what she did at
the time. Witness asked het s% hat on earth could have
been in her mind, to urge her to so shocking a deed?
She said she could not tell ; there was one thing, she
said, preyed a great deal on her mind, whi,-11 was, that
a woman named Martha Evaline, by whom her husband
had tl:e last Wegitimate child, was constantly' coming
to the house. creating a ri t and m ih, and irisilting her
benever she saw her ; and a neighbour urged this
woman on to do so.

Ti•e knife wai now proluced to the Jury ; it is a
large c u yi.ig knife, nearly new, very sharp-edged and
pointed, about fifteen inches long, and having a black
handle ; the blade, about ten inches long, was quite
stained with blood. The sight of this frightful weapon
shocked every one present.
The Jury now proceeded across the street to the
house where the child lay dead, neatly opposite, to take
a view of the body, which presented a most appalling
spectacle; and after returning to the Jury-room,
The CORONER addressed a few words to them, re-
pressing his regret that there appeared nothing to show
that the woman was in a deranged state of mind at the
time of committing the horrid deed, or previ,usly; for
it was scarcely to be conceived how any human being
could perpetrate such an act in a sane state of mind.—
As the case stood, however, it appeared to be a foul
murder. The women gave a systematic detail of the
manner in which she perpetrated the act, and although
she was immediately after in a state of sanitation—and
what being nn earth must nor, after such a deed?—yet
she soon returned to her habitual calmness. It mould,
however, be. fur the Jury to consider the case, and
return their verdict.

The Jury consulted for a few minutes, and returned a verdict
of 4, Wilful Slurderagainst Ann Browne," and the Coroner issued
his warrant for her committal to Newgate.

FATAL ACCIDENT.

An inquest was held at seve.i o'clock yesterday even-
ing before THOMAS SHELTON, Esq. Coroner, at the
Board• Room of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, to inquire
into the death of a youth named Charles Hare, who was
crushed to death at tht execution in the Old Bailey,
yesterday morning. Henry Brown stated that he was
going through the Old Bailey about seven o'clock yester-
day morning, a great crowd had assembled, and he fol-
lowed a coal waggon, which was going towards Lud-
gate-hill, and as another waggon was coming in the con-
trary direction, it stopped a short distance from the
scaffold whereon the execution took place. Upon the
waggon again moving forward, the driver desired the
people to take care, but directly after witness heard a
scream, and saw the deceased fixed against a post by
the hind wheel of the waggon, which was instantly
hacked, and the deceased fell, and was carried away by
smne of the crowd. The driver was at the head of his
team, and walked very slowly. James Buckley,*a wea-
ver, was waiting to see the execution, and gave the same
account as the last witness. Joseph Mat tin, one of the city
police, deposed, that he was stationed within the railing
around the scaffold ; the waggon was traversing at a
very slow pace indeed ; the persons in the crowd would
not move when the wheels were passing close to them,
being afraid of losing their places, and actually stood
within the waggon wheels; bad the deceased moved,
no accident would have happened. A juror asked if
the thoroughfare for carriages was not stopped on the
morning of executions. Martin replied, always at seven
o'clock ; bat upon this occasion the crowd was unusually
great. A juror said the passage should be always
stopped on the scaffold being brought out. It was
miracle that more lives were not lost. Another witness
deposed to the same facts, and completely exonerated
the waggoner from blame, observing, the moment that,

The LORD CHANCELLOR having to-day resumed his
judgm••nc in this cause, commented on the petition and
affidavits of Grimstead: He said.that on Friday next
he hoped to be able to go through the evidence of the
cue, when it would not be difficult to decide upon it.
He thought the consideration was, whether the trans-
actions between Grimstead and Howard and Gibbs were
usurious or not; and in that view two points would
arise for consideration ; whether or not Grimstead knew
the nature of the transactions ; and if not, whether it
would be consistent with the safety of human affairs,
and with the principles on which evidence was received,
that the representations of a party concerned should alter
the nature of the transactions when they came to be de-
cided on in a Court of Justice?

UNION-HALL

Yesterday morning a Gentleman gave information that while is
the pit of Astiey's Amphitheatre the preceding night, he had been
robbed of his brown Russia leather pocketbook, containing tie.:
Exchequer Bills, value 1001. each, numbers 4,198, 4,199, 4,200,
4,201, 4,202, 4,203, 4,204, and 4,207, dated 27th September, 1825,
besides a valuable gold watch, chain, and seals. He had seised the
suspected person and endeavoured to detain him, but was obliged
to Tiit his grasp, being beset by a strong party of men apparently
belonging to the same gang.
The Gentleman was then advised to have bills printed and circu-
lated, describing the robbery, and offering a reward fur the appre-
hension ofsthe thief; and also to apply at the Foreign-office, that if
the Exchequer Bills were attempted to be negotiated on the Con-
tinent it might lead to a discovery.

An errand cart was robbed on Monday evening, be-
tween Vauxhall-bridge and Kennington-cross, of linen
of the value of SCI. the property of Judge BAYLEY.
DEATH OF THE KING OF THE &Gomm—Sunday
evening, Andrew Weden, a dwarf, of Great Guildford-
street, Southwark, who for some years had enjoyed the
above royal title, departed this life under the following
circumstances :—Andrew, who with the aid of his car-
rage (a small cart), was not more than two feet high,
and whose parson was very deformed, had been regaling
himself in the City, as was his daily custom, and with
great difficulty found his way to Blackfriars-bridge,
where he was perceived by some coal-heavers, who pro-
posed taking him between them to his palace in a garret
in Guildford-street. His majesty having stopped with
his charitable conductors at a gin shop, drank so freely,
that one of the party threw him over his shoulder, with
his lead downwards, and conveyed him to his palace in
that situation. When they arrived, and put down their
load, it was found that Andrew was dead, the position
in which he had been carried, and the quantity of spirits
he hid drank, having produced suffocation. Me.lical
assistance was procured, but too late, and the body of
Andrew was put under lock and, key by the landlady of
the house, to whom he was considerably indebted. The
news of his maje.ty's death soon reached the hospitals,
and a deputation arrived, proposing the sum of 1001.
for his royal body. Mr. Gale, Beadle of Sr- S -
_ay.; our's,
having beard that the offer was likely to be accepted,
went, whir a number of watchmen, and, possessing him-
self of the body by force, conveyed it to the watch.

MANSION-110USE.

A boy name:l Sioke.t, of very respectable appearance and
great antplicity of manner, neatly dressed in a braided jacket and
trowsers, and a white hat, was charged with having been concerned
in several of the robberies committed lately in the city. It ap-
peared by the statement of Brady, the street keeper, that the-buy,
who does not appear to be more than twelve years of age, had been
tried for robbery before. and punished in Newgate; and that all
attempts to reform him had proved ineffectual. He had, on the
present occasion, crept up the tops of several houses in Throg-
mottomstreet, until he reached one into which he succeeded in
effecting an entrance. Ile found in the garrets only a few. silk
handkerchiefs, which lie thought worthy of notice. Ile stowed
them about .his person, and then moved to another house, and entered
the ckandier of a young lady, where he pocketed all her trinkets.
He, however, was interrupted, detected, and soon afterwards ap-
prehended on the top of a house by Brady, to whom he mentioned,
with great simplicity, that he was merely looking fur his pigeons,
and that he belonged to No. 13.
• _ _ _ _ _

The Loan Mar-oa asked him where lie lived.—He replied, that
he had lived with his mother until within the last three or four
weeks, and that be had taken separate lodb-ins for himself in Petti-
coat•lane.

The LORD MATOIL••••-11OR many of you lodge in that place ?
I'tisoner—Why, let me see; there's four of us, but they are not of
the trade I follow: they only beg.
The Loan MAYOR—How long have you been at this trade of
thieving ? Prisoner—Why, let me set; I 1111 about ten months, or
thereabouts at it.

The Lotto Mara—Were you not whipped in prison ? Primer
—Ay, and well whipped too.
The LORD Alit-mt.—And you still go on in the old way ?
Pri-uner.—l ant juAt the same.
The Loan 111avoa.— Where did you intend to go with what you
stole? Prisoner.--That I cannot say.
The LORD MAVOR.—I suppose you would have brought it to
some place where you have sold property betore •' where is that?
I'tbioner.-01t, that is somewhere about the I%linories ; as you
go along you tutu to the right, and then to the left, and then you
walk un till you come to a narrow lane, and then you walk into the
next street, and you come to a man's house that sells things.
This was the extent of the information given by the prisoner, who
twisted his hat &lithe time he was speaking.
The Loan Matron, in despair, ordered the unfortunate child to
be remanded till Thursday.

• GENUINE SYRUP OF DE VELNO&
following Letter an additional and recent
Tes7iniony iu proo: of the peculiar benefit attendant on the
use of the Syrup:

"31A DA Al, " kW-Acre, Brentford, January-191 1826.
" Fully convinced of the efficacy of your invaluable Medicine, I am
induced to make the following case known, for the benefit of those
who may be suffering under similar affliction. My daughter had a
severe attack of Typhus Fever in the autumn of 1824; her head
was shaved, and itnmediaely after it broke out, and formed an
entire scab (so that her ears were scarcely visible), at the same
time discharging a watery humour all over the head, with a thick
matter out of the hole of each ear. After taking a few bottles of
the Syrup, she was restored to perfect health, in which she still
rernahis ; another autumn having passed, without the least symp-
tom of a relapse. In addition to the foregoing, I e.utttut hut
acknowledge that, on several occasions, I have received the
greatest benefit from taking the Syrsp, but particularly un the
occasion of an ulcerated kg, occasioned by a severe blow. I beg
ta•add, if I can in any way be serviceable, as a reference, in-
reemetnenditig the Syrup, I shalt feel it a duty I owe, knowing
the ermacy of it in many instances.
_ _

I ant, Madan, t'our's respectfully,
" W. FRANKLIN.
" To Mrs. Caohani, 52, Brrner)s-street."

The great success of this Medicine, in Scorbutic, Scropbulous;
anti Syphilitic complaints, Pains and Swellings of the Liver, dis-
eased Skin and Glands, and all disorders arising front impure
blood, is now too well known to require a detailed enumeration.—
its, however, imposture, like envy, too closely fol;ows the heels of
merit, and pretensions to imitate the Syrup, to improve it, or to
have discovered something of similar efficacy, may surprise the
unwary, and fatally mislead the igt:urant, Mrs. Canham owes it in
gratitude to the Public, to give warning of these danger.; and to
refer to those proofs of the virtues and efficacy of her Medicine, to
he found in her puUlications,lich surpass in cumber, iespect-
ability, and authenticity, any testimonies of a similar kind that
have ever been produced. The effects of the GENUINE VE-
GETABLE SYRUP are such as not to interrupt either business
or pleasure ; it operates un the animal juices, and simply reqdires
the common restraint of mut:eration it. diet. It is a safe but pow.
erful substitute for Alercury, and removes all those diseases which
an unsuccessful use of that mineral occasions.

The genuine Medicine has a label Axed to each bottle, with the
signature, " M. Cultic's'," in the hand-writing of the Proprietor,
by whom it is sold, u it was by her Uncle and her Husband, at
542, Berner's•street, at 13s. a bottle ; and, by her appointment, at
Jr. &ales's, 196, Bishopsgate•street-Without; also, by Mrs.
Canham's Agents in every considerable Town in the United King-
dom. The Concentrated, for warm climates, may be procured of
her deputed Agents in toe East Indies, Messrs. Mackintosh and
Co. Catcatta; and Messrs. Forbes and Co. Bombay.

Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but
to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the free-
dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. • To the
neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless
instances which, while they excite the commiseration of the be-
haider,should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious habits *ill effeminize the body—a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na-
tural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized
sufferer inure than doubts the chance of relief. To all such then,
we address outselves, offering hope, energy, muscular strength,
felicity; nor will our advances appear questionable sanctioned as
they are by the multiplied proofs of 20 years' successful experience.

strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power.
In every case of syphilitic intrusioa, as well as iu every relaxation
of the generative economy, we pledge our ability to cure speedily,
and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empyric
from the position so presumptuously taken up. we deviate from
