WESTERN AUSTRALIA.

There are accounts from Western Australia to the 10th of
August. They notice with much displeasure the refusal of
the Secretary of State to sanction the charge proposed by the
Legislative Assembly in the sale of Crown lands. The papers
urge that a Colonial Minister should rather submit to the
opinion gathered from sources likely to be well acquainted
with the subject, than without due consideration reject a plan
the efficacy of which had bad mature consideration before it
was submitted for his approval. A bill that had occu-
pied attention in the Assembly was to prevent the un-
authorised occupation of territory within the limits of
the colony, and evidence at great length had been heard
for and against the measure. It had gone through the
preliminary stages, and was expected, from the little opposi-
tion, before long to become law.
It is worthy of notice that the Americans continue to make
the bay whaling at Swan River a profitable speculation ; and
as the Perth Inquirer contains some interesting statistics
connected with their operations during tha first half-
year of 1842, it is as well to give the facts in order to
lay before the public an idea of the wealth the whale-
fishers of the United States ale drawing on the seaboard
of one of our colonies. Port Augusta, a place yet but
little known, is the favourite resort for the American fleet
to be supplied with vegetables, fruit, milk, fresh meat, and
other necessaries for a long voyage, and here, it is stated,
the vessels also undergo the repair of damage they may have
received either from the usual chances of the trade, or the
effect of bad weather. The vessels that had called in at this
port up to June were 12in number, 10 of which were American,
while the other two were from the Cape of Good Hope and
Hobart-town. The quantity of oil these vessels had secured is a
sufficient test of the resources of the fishery of the neighbour-
hood. The Iris had 60 barrels of sperm; the Chelsea 850 barrels
of black oil ; the Montezuma, 1,500 barrels of oil ; the Con-
necticut, 1,190 barrels of oil and 200 barrels of sperm ; the
Mentor, 2,100 barrels of oil; the William, 100 barrels of
sperm ; the Julius Caesar, 1,175 barrels of black oil ; and the
Addison 500 barrels of sperm. These are all American
whalers. The ship from the Cape had not, up to that date,
been successful, and the Camilla, from Hobart-town, had
but 60 barrels of sperm. It appears, however, that many of
the vessels had not completed their runs, but had put into
Port Angusta for what the crews wanted. It is further stated,
in proof of the quantity of fish in the bay, that in the winter
of 1839 two vessels from the States captured no less than 30
whales; and in 1840 two other vessels were equally success-
ful. In the winter of 1841 27 whales were killed in the bay,
by the Camilla, from Hobart-town, and the John Parry, an
American ship ; and this, it is said, is a small sample of the
success that might be obtained all along the coast if the
fishery were pushed in the manner it deserves. There are
already, it appears, American visitants at King George's
Sound, Twopeople Bay, and the Vasse, on the same expedi=
tion, and they have also profited largely by the good fiisheries
found in those places.

Lord Edward Clinton, son of the Duke of Newcastle, died
in June last, while on an outward passage to China.
THE POISONING CASE AT MANCHESTER.—On Tuesday
the jury found the woman, Mary Hunter, guilty of poisoning
her husband, and she was committed to trial.

MEDICAL PRIVILEGES.—II may be of importance to
many, especially to those preparing for the medical profession,
to know that degrees in medicine, or diplomas in surgery, of
Scotch universities or colleges, confer no privileges out of
Scotland—do not qualify for any surgical or medical appoint-
ment under the new poor law, the militia, or prison acts of
parliament. The poor•law commissioners have recently dis-
missed all those who hold Scotch diplomas from their offices
under them.

The late unhappy victim to opium in Dublin was, early in
life, an artist of much promise. His name was not Moreau,
but Morrand. His father was a native of the south of
France, who settled at Newry, many years ago, and was a
sugar refiner in that place. Morrand, senior, married a
poung woman of Newry, and the subject of this notice was
the eldest of foar children by that union, who, with their
mother were lekanprovided for, and very young at their fa-
ther's decease. The late J. Morrand was too fond of in-
dulging imprudently in " inebriating cups." This led to a
separation, long since, from a respectable young woman, to
whom he had been married. He had settled at Southampton
for nearly 20 years, and has had a very good business, but
his habits of intemperance spoiled everything.
A MARRIAGE FORBIDDEN.—A retired publican, named
Pearse, residing at the eastern part of the metropolis, some
time since separated from his wife, who, as be alleges,
eloped from him with a green-grocer living in the neighbour-
hood, and went off to America. Since that period Mr.
Pearse has paid his addresses to the daughter of a highly-
respectable tradesman at the east end, and Tuesday morning
was fixed for the marriage ceremony, at Whitechapel
Church. The bride and bridegroom, with one or two other
friends, were in attendance, and the marriage ceremony is
said to have been proceeding, when an elderly man and wo-
man rushed breathless into the church, and called on the
clergyman to stop. These parties turned out to be the fa-
ther and mother of Mr. Pearse's first wife, who are also said
to be in respectable circumstances. They forbade the mar-
riage, and having explained the circumstances uuder which
they did so,' the officiating clergyman refused to proceed,
and the parties, greatly disappointed, left the church.
Determined not to be disappointed. Mr. Pearse, with the con-
sent of his intended, lost no time in procuring a license, and
on Wednesday morning the " happy couple" drove up in a
post-chaise to Trinity Church, New-road, and having pre-
sented the license to the Rev. Mr. Baker, the officiating
curate, the marriage was solemnized by that rev. gentleman,
the clerk accommodating the parties by becoming " father"
to the young lady. The ceremony. had scarcely been com-
pleted, and the post-chaise containing the new married couple
was yet in sight, when a scene of the most indescribable up-
roar ensued at the church porch, in consequence of the ar-
rival of the parents of the bridegroom's first wife, who found
to their dismay that they were 'gust five minutes too late."
The riot made by them was such, that a vast crowd of per-
sons assembled. A vestryman, named Glasier, who happened
to pop in at the moment and hear the tale, directed Blabv,
one of the beadles, immediately to run for a policeman, and
take the bridegroom into custody on a charge of bigamy; to
which he received the laconic reply of—" La, sir, the lady
and gentleman are by this time a mile or two on their road
to Somersetshire," to which country it appeared Mr. Pearse
had mentioned in the vestry-room he intended to convey his
bride for the purpose of spending the honeymoon. The
parents of the first and still living wife continued to storm
most lustily, and her father declared he would immediately
pursue the fugitives, and spend every farthing he possessed
in bringing "the villain" to justice.
NEW REGULATIONS FOR THE QUEEN'S PRISON.—The
first division for the classification of the inmates of the Queen's
Prison has been nearly completed, and the females will be
shortly separated. At the extremity of the racket-ground
a high wall has been erected, and no communication will be
allowed with the other prisoners. The next part to be con-
verted will be a place of punishment, taking the wing where
the coffee-house stands. The coffee-house is to be pulled
down, and the centre of the prison reserved for the other
prisoners until further alterations are made. It is said that
the new regulations for the prison have been sanctioned by
the Secretary of State, and will be speedily promulgated, so
that those persons who prefer imprisonment to acting with
honesty will be placed in a different position to what they
have been in for many years. The rules have been framed
under an act of Parliament passed in May last, under which
act the Fleet and Marshalsea have been closed, and the pri-
soners removed to the Queen's Prison, where in future all
commitments will take place from the Courts of Chan.
eery, Queen's Bench, Common Pleas, Exchequer, Palace,
as also from the Court of Bankruptcy, and persons tried
by courts martial. The Fleet and Marshalsea were of
great antiquity. All the documents relating to the two pri-
sons have been placed under the care of the marshal of the
Queen's Prison, and a list supplied of the various benefac-
tions in food and money made to the inmates; which, with
the funds available in the existing gaol, will be indiscrimi-
nately applied. By the eleventh section, all fees hitherto
payable by prisoners are abolished, except such as shall be
mentioned by the new regulations. The twelfth clause is an
important provision, and was framed to prevent persons
spending their property "in the rules." From the passing
of the act the " day rules " ceased ; and the liberty of the
rules has been denied to persons who were subsequently
committed. A petition during the discussion of the bill was
presented by the rulers, claiming a kind q" vested interest,"
and the result was, that those who were in the enjoyment of
the rules should possess them until May. next, tram which
period they are finally to cease and determine. It is ordered
by the seventeenth section, that the prisoners shall be
classed, distinction being made in persons remanded by the
Insolvent Debtors' Court, and others, as likewise in persons
committed for libel. There is another provision which was
much required. It bas happened that persons became insane
after'their commitment, and there was no place to which
they could be removed. By the fourteenth and fifteenth
clauses, insane persons are to be removed to Bethlehem
Hospital; and in case of an emergency, other prisoners may
be removed to a place of safety.

LAW MULLIONCS.

COUIt,T OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—MONDAY, bic. 5.
(Before Lord Chief Justice Dentnan and a Special Jurv.)

HOWAED V. GOSSETT, BELLAMY, SLIEIN, AND MITCHELL.
This was an action of trespass brought by the plaintiff, who
was the legal adviser of John Joseph Stockdale in the action
brought by him about three years ago against Messrs. Han-
sard, the printers to the House of Commons, against the de-
fendants, who were the deputies of Sir W. Gossett, the Ser-
jean t-at-Arms of the House of Commons, to recover damages
for having broken into and entered the dwelling house of the
plaintiff on the 4th of February, 1840, remaining there several
hours, and whilst there forcing open various locks and doors.
The defendant put in the following pleas :—As to the breaking
of the locks and doors, not guilty ; as to the rest, a plea to
the following effect,—that on the 26th of January, 1840, the
plaintiff was summoned before the House of Commons ; that
he did not attend in pursuance of that summons, but secreted
himself ; that on the 4th of February following it was resolved
by the House that the Speaker should issue a warrant for the
plaintiff to be brought up by the Serjeant-at-Arms ; that the
warrant was accordinglyissued and delivered to Sir W. Gos-
sett, and was by him delivered to the defendants, who were
his deputies ; and that they then proceeded to the defendant's
house, searched it for the plaintiff, and remained there . The
plaintiff, in his replication as to entering the house, denied
the issuing of the warrant by the Speaker; and with respect
to the other part of the plea, denied all except the warrant,
which he admitted.

Mr. Platt, Mr. Kelly, and Mr. Petersdorff, appeared for
the plaintiff ; and the Attorney-General, the Solicitor-
General, Mr. Crompton, and Mr. Pollock, for• the defendants.
The case having been gone through at great length, the
jury retired, and after 20 minutes' consultation returned a
verdict for the plaintiff—Damages £lOO.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-MONDAY, DEC. 5.

LIBEL.7SIMON V. BALDWIN.

The plaintiff is a merchant and landowner in the island ofJer-
sey, and brother of the French Consul there. The defendant
is the proprietor of the London Standard newspaper; and
the present action is brought to recover damages for injury
done to his character by an imputation of fraudulent practices
in the corn trade between Jersey and Great Britain. The
alleged libel was contained in a letter signed " A Loyalist,"
and published in the Standard of the 14th March last, in
which the writer affirmed that the plaintiff was in the habit
of importing Prussian and French corn into the Channel is-
lands as if for consumption there, under which pretence it
was imported duty free ; and that he exported the same corn
to England, where it was again admitted duty free as Jersey
corn.
A witness, M. Gragnean, from Jersey, was examined to
show that the arrangements respecting the trade in corn to
and from Jersey were so strict that the fraud alleged could
not have been committed.

The jury found for the plaintiff—Damages £2OO.

VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURTS.—TUESDAY.
(Before Sir LANCELOT SHADWELL.)
A case was argued at considerable length, in which the
title to property of large amount was contested on the ques-
tion whether Mr. John Gildhart, formerly of Liverpool, who
had the misfortune to be deaf and dumb, could be held
capable of acquiring a vested interest in the freehold and
copyhold estates devised by his father, Francis Gildhart.
John was described in the pleading as of sound intellect,
despite his organic defect; but it was contended that as his
father by appointing in his will, made when the son was 32
years of age, trustees for the disbursement of moneys for his
maintenance, and for the education, &c., of his children in
case he should marry, appeared to have regarded him as dis-
qualified from managing his own affairs, it could not be sup-
posed that be should have considered him capable of being a
party to the transmission of the property.
Sir L. Shadwell, having referred to the provisions of the
will, and observing that the testator throughout contemplated
as probable the contingency of his son marrying said he did
not see how he could suppose the testator to have considered
his son capable of exercising the discretion of disposing of his
property, although, as a father, he might have been of opinion
that he stood in need of some control in the management of
his affairs while living. Be therefore declared the reversion
to have vested in the son, John Gildhart.

DUBLIN COURT OF DELEGATES—WEDNESDAY,
THE DEANERY OF SAINT PATRICK'S.
Wilson v. Daly.

The Court of Delegates met this morning in the Queen's
Bench, for the purpose of hearing arguments in reference to
Doctor Todd's vote, which had ben recorded at the election
in favour of Doctor Wilson. _

Mr. Sergeant Keating was heard in opposition to the vote.
The question resolved itself into this, viz. :—Whether Dr.
Todd, having been appointed to discharge the duties of the
office of Treasurer of St. Patrick's, under the church tempo-
ralities act, 4 and 5, William IV., chapter 90, was entitled
to vote at the recent election for a Dean of St. Patrick's.
The learned sergeant contended at great length that the
question depended on the construction of the temporalities'
act, together with the act of the 3rd and 4th Wt,. IV., cap.
37, taken in connection with the charter of restitution of the
Ist and 2nd Philip and Mary, by which the only charter of
foundation of the cathedral which had been surrendered to
Henry VIII. had been restored. The learned sergeant con-
tended with great force and ability that, taking all these acts
together, Dr. Todd was not entitled to vote.
Henry Martley, Esq., Q.C., was heard in support of the
vote, and having concluded his argument, the court adjourned
until Friday morning, at half -past ten, when this long-
litigated questions will be brought to a conclusion, the court
having intimated its intention of giving judgment on that
day.

THE WEATHER.—During the whole of Wednesday the me-
tropolis was enveloped in a dense fog, rendering it necessary
to use artificial light in all the city offices and warehouses.
The temperature throughout the day was much colder than
on Monday, and the market waggons from the suburban dis-
tricts were covered with hoar-frost. ,

Lady Peat, widow of the Rev. Sir Robert Peat, chaplain
to King George IV, died, at Bishopwearmouth, on Saturday,
in her 90th year. Her eccentricities as Miss Smith, of East
Herrington, and the firing of her house and murder of her
servant girl by some criminal yet unknown, are familiar to
most of our readers.

THE EDUCATION QumTioN.—The Archbishop of Ar-
magh, the Bishops of Meath, Kildare, Clogher, Kilmore,
Down and Connor, Cork, Killaloe and Ossory, have issued
an address, in which they state that Sir Robert Peel and her
Majesty's government have resolved to recommend to par-
liament the continuance of the educational parliamentary
I grant, and do not intend to promote any grant for a Church
Education Society.
THE GALLANT 3Orn REGIMENT.-0 the occasion of the
30th depot firing a feu de joie commemorative of the success
of our arms in China, a gentleman accosted another in the
street to inquire the object of the firing? " Don't you
know," he replied, " tbat our old friend, Sir Hugh Gough,
has compelled the Chinese to give us their Congou and Bo-
hea teas in exchange for our gunpowder?—and the 30th
depot is just discharging their samples.—Galway Vindicator.

PILCHARD FISHERY.—We had thought the pilchard fish-
ery to have been over for this season, but it seems their fare-
well visit had not been paid. They made their appearance
again in St. Ives Bay, on Wednesday last, when, to use an
old fisherman's expression, the bay was full of fish. Four
seines are now (Thursday) in the water with from 8,000 to
10,000 hhds of fish in them. It is an extraordinary circum-
stance, but the southern coasts of the county, Mount Bay,
&c., where such immense numbers used formerly to be
taken, are now, and have been for several seasons, destitute
of fish, whilst the northern coasts appear to swarm with
them.—Sherborne and Yeovil. Mercury.
The public will be rejoiced to find, that the omission of
Sir Robert Sale's name, in the honorary distinctions granted
to the heroes of our late achievements in India, proceeds in
no degree from a desire to underrate the merits of that gal-
lant officer. Sir Robert Sale very recently received the
Grand Cross of the Bath for his noble defence of Jellalabad,
and other eminent services on the north-west frontier of
India, and it was therefore impossible to give him the same
distinction which, has been conferred on General Pollock,
General Nott, and Sir William Parker; but it has been
notified to the Governor-General of India, in compliance
with his recommendation, that it will be proposed to parlia-
ment to grant to Sir Robert and Lady Sale, with the benefit
of survivorship, an annual pension of £5OO, as a special
public recognition of signal merit.

LORD HILL.—We regret to learn that his Lordship, after
recovering from his last illness in London, since he has been
at Hardwick, his seat near this town, has suffered a relapse.
His illness was first occasined by too anxious and unre-
mitting attention to his official duties. On Wednesday last
his Lordship rallied, and had a better night's rest. The
feelings of humanity and love of his country in his Lordship's
bosom are as ardent as ever. When the despatches from
China and Affghanistan had been read to him by his nephew,
Sir R. Hill, his Lordship testified the delight be felt that
Providence had crowned the arms of his country with success,
and, above all, with the blessing of peace. Let us then ar-
dently hope that, as the air of his native country, and the
sight of the Wrekin, occasioned his Lordship's health to re-
turn on his arrival in Shropshire, so the inspiring intelligence
of his country's triumphs may renovate his spirit and invigo-
rate his frame.—Shrewsbury Chronicle.

GOING AHEAD I—Allured by the success of the art-unions
in various places at borne and abroad, " the directors of the
Royal Polytechnic Institution" have projected an enlarged
design something of a similar nature. The prospectus being
analysed, announced neither more nor less than the annual
lottery, tickets 205., to be distributed in prizes of works of
art and science, selected by the Goodlucks, Bishes, and
Hazards of the Institution ; and even the blanks are to be
engravings worth more than the price of the ticket. Among
the temptations to the risk are not only paintings, sculpture,
and bronzes, but quadrants and sextants, harps, fiddles, and
pianofortes, and collections of shells and minerals. The
plan is ingenious, but not new. We remember an itinerant
lottery-proprietor who went on exactly the same principle.
only be was attended.bir a witty clown ; his great prizes were
watches, sheep, cheeses, pieces of cloth for inexpressibles,
&c. ; and his blanks were all scissors or penknives, which in
the drawing were sonorously announced under the denomi-
nation of " Prize vally (value) eightpence;" and, sooth to
say, these sounds were very rarely interrupted by the words
watch, sheep, cheese, or b—ches piece. ,

GRAND JUNCTION CANAL COMPANY.—The half-yearly
general assembly of the proprietors in this undertaking was
held on Tuesday, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, London ;
Sir Wm. Eden in the chair. The report of the committee
states, that the net tonnages for the half-year ending the
30th of June, 1842, amount to £51,512, being £10,276 less
than in the preceding six months, and £5,415 less than in
the corresponding period of the preceding year. This falling
off in the revenue was to be attributed to the general depres-
sion of trade throughout the country. The committee, how-
ever, had to inform the proprietors, that although the reve-
nue had been thus diminished, yet in consequence of the
reduction of expenses which had been made in the working
of the canal, amounting to nearly £B,OOO, the balance in the
hands of the company amounted to £44,882, being £3,836
greater than the balance of the same period of the preceding
year. The committee, therefore, recommended the declara-
tion of a dividend of £3 10s. for the half-year, amounting to
£40,092, 'cawing a balance of £4,789, out of which the In-
come Tax would be paid, and the remainder carried to the
account for new works, A sum of £5,609 bad lately been
expended for repairs on 135 miles of the canal. The report
having been received and adopted, the meeting separated.
On Thursday morning, the Rev. Mr. Montgomery left
Wilton House, with Earl Bruce, for the purpose of looking
over a new church at Bishopstone. During the preceding
week the eastern portion had been covered in with a stone
vault, and the construction had been carefully examined by
the architect, and by persons connected with the works, and
they unanimously considered it to be perfectly secure. At
half-past one o'clock, Mr. Montgomery, accompanied by
Earl Bruce, the Rev. Mr. Ward, his nephew, Mr. Gabriel,
Mr. Ferry, the architect, the clerk of the works, and the
contractor, entered to inspect' the new church, from which
the centres of the arches had been removed the same morn-
ing. They had not advanced many paces, when a crack was
heard, and the arch fell in to the extent of about eight feet
of the whole width of the nave. The Rev. Mr. Ward es-
caped by sprining into one of the side aisles, and Mr. Ga-
briel secured himself in the other; but Mr. Montgomery
unhappily moved towards the centre, and was completely co-
vered by the falling mass, and life was immediately extinct.
Independently of fractures of the skull, both in the forehead
and at the base, there was a compound fracture of the left
thigh, and the right arm was broken close to the elbow. The
estimated weight of the stone which fell is three tons. An
inquest has been held on the body, and a verdict of " Acci-
dental Death" teturned.—Saliabtol/ paper.
