The statute remedy being substistue for the common law mode of procedure. dover cannot be claimed of lands aliened by the husband and in the hands of sev. eral persons by the same petition. They might have several distinct defences in which they had no common interest re- quiring distinct issues of law and fact. In such cases it would be necessary to pro ceed separately against each, and some- times only in court of equity. '. The widow Is not dowable of the enhan. ced value of the property by the cree. tion of buildings and other improvements, but of the value of the land at the lime of the alienation.
 As the Orphans court had no jurisdiction, the cause was not remandcd.

 F. ". BowDoN for the plaintiff in error. s. F. RICE, contra.
 GOLDTHWAlTE, J.
 !. In an action for malicious prosecution, in charging the plaintiff with u larceny, it is no error for the court to charge, that the taking proved, must under our stal- utes be with fraudulent intent. If lhe defendant supposed the facts iu proof made out case of embezzlemeni, or frau. duent conversion, under the penal code, and wished instructions on that point, he should ask specific charge. }. Where justice issued warrant for lar ceny, and the constable went to the house ot the party, and informed his wife, lhe appearance and submission to the exam ination is to be considered as an actual arrest, when the suit is against the pros- ecuor for malicious prosecution. The same effect is to be given to the order of ajusice, that the party be in custody, and the officer is present as well as the par ty-the latter submitting to proceed with the examination.
 Judgment affirmed.

New Terms of Advertising.

The accumulation on our books of debts due us in other counties, and in other States ann the great difficulty attendant upon their collec. tion-to say nothing of the tax thereby imposed on US, and the losses we are forced to sustain. by many of our distant debtors neglecting to send us the amounts they may severaly owe- forces on us the necessity of adopting a mode of computing the cost of publications to be made in our columns, which can be easily under stood, and winch will enable our patrons to en- close, with their advertisements, the money to pay for them. Our new terms will not vary. materially, from the old ones and where there Is any change it will be found to be in favor of the advertiser For example, we propose to make 80 words, or less, one square more than 80, and less than 160 two squares; more than I60. and less than 24O three squares, &c. Under the old system the square averages about 75 words.
 The price of advertising win not be changed; the change in the mode of computing the quan- tity of matter in advertisements, is adopted spe. cialIy with view to rd1eve ourself from the evils of the credit system.
 These rules, we propose, shall apply in all cases where the persons making publication re- side out of this cry, except they be Sheriffs, Coroners, Registers in Chancery, Clerks or Court, or other public officers. ~s
 Where we open an account with officers of court and others of that class, we reserve to our self the right to charge theold prices.

 The wide spread fame of these splendid Peri odicals renders 1t needless to say much in their praise. As literary organs, they stand far Tn ad. vance of any works oft similar stamp now pub shed while the political complexion of each is marked by dignity, candor asd for Jearancc not often found in works of party character.
 They embrace the views ofthe three great partes in England--W Tory, and Radical --"Bldckwood" and the "London Quarterly" are Tory; the "Edinburgh Review" Whig {; and the "Westminster," Radical.-The "Foreign Quarterly" is purely literary, beng devoted principally to criticism on foreign Continental Works.
 The prices fthe REPRINTS are less than one third of those of the foreign copies. and while they are equally well got up, they afford all that advantage to the American over the Engiish reader.
 TERMS:
