II.—At th > Court, at Osborne House, Isle of Wiifht, the loth day of December, 184.5, present t'te Queen's Most Excellent- Majesty in Council. It is this day ordered by her Majesty in Coun'J thit the Par- Iptmen*, which stands prorogued to Tu^ilay, the liSth December instant, be fnrth.'v prorogued to Tuesday, the 30th of December instant. TIlE FRENCH IN ALGERIA.—The National gives a frightful picture of Marshal Bu^eaud's doinirs in Africa. According to the accounts published by this paper, 50 prisoners were on one day shot in cold blood—13 villages burned, the Dahra massacre acted over again, for it seems that a por.ion of atriba having hid themselves in a cave, the same means were resorterl to, exactly as were employed by Colonel Pelissier, and all smoked and baked to death. J'he marshal himself is the author of all these horrors— his last triumph was a monster razzia—he has ordered the moststiict secrecy as to his barbarous proceedings; aud the writer of the accounts, of which we have just given a summary, calls him a second Attila, for he puts all to the sword and fire, sparing (I,dy women and infants. We leave to the French press the'duty of corntnentingupon such acts, and we cheerfully acknowledge that that duty will be fulfilled. We fancied that it required the dark phrenzy of the age of the Inquisition to throw up such a monster as this Bugeaud. TRIFLING CAUSE OF DEATH.—An inquest was held by J. B. Gnnclon, Esq., on Monday, at the Wheatsheaf, Bedminster, Bristol, on the body of Hannah Warburton, who came by her death from the following comparatively trival circumstance:—She was about six years of age, of a delicate constitution, but not ill, and was always much affected at the sight of blood. On Saturday she slipped from off IL. form on which she was sitting, and struck her elbow against a stool, which scarred the skin and caused it to bleed a little, which so frightened the poor little child that the fell into a fainting tit and died in a few minutes. A verdict in accorda ice with the evidence was returned by the jury. THE AMBRICAN PUESIDENT'S MESSAGE.-This impor- tant document, which will decide the question of peace or war, m:iy be expected to reach us by the 25th of the present mouth. Look out for a Christmas Box," as an American paper says. Punch has, of course, some allusion to the great topics of the day—the Whig and Conservative adhesions to Corn-law Repeal. In the cut belonging to the series of pencillings" is the parody of a picture (by Collins, if we remember rightly) called "Coming events cast their hadows before" Cobden, with tree" corn on his head, is the traveller whose approacii is indicated by the shadow on the path and Peel is the urchin slowly opening the five-barred gate of monoply," tc- let the forage pass. In another cut, Cobden is going right ahead, at a hard trot, on the good hackney ".Free Trade"; and John Russel, touching his cap, is the little vagabond street- lounger that runs after the gentlemen, haud possibtts equis, crying, May I hold your horse, Sir 1" -11 kind of "fixed duty" which the Manchester man betrays no sort of disposition to intrust to the suspicious-looking little fellow.

R E SIGNATTON OF THE MINISTRY. [From the Morning Herald of Thursday.] Sir Robert Peel's Government is at an end. All the Members of the Cabinet yesterday tendered their resignation, which Her Majesty was pleased to accept. It will be easily believed that we regret this deter- mination of lier Majesty's advisers but we should much more regret their unanimous determination to sacrifice the industry of the country, by stripping it of all protection. The important fact nu.v announced proves how completely wrong the Fi <1f' -v s when it stated that the Government hnl lee: !o 1 up,n propostny to Parliament, as a Cab net ouasjre, the repeal of the corn laws. [From the Standa-d of Thllrs ) ty Evening.] We can confirm the statement of the Morning Herald, that all the Cabinet Ministers have tendered their resignations, and that Her Majesty has accepted them, an 1, therefore, the present Ministers only hold office until their successors are appointed. It is said that Lord John Russell has been sent for by the Queen. At present nothing can with certainty be known as to who may form the new Adminis- tration. We do not, however, pledge ourselves for the truth of this rumour. It is said at the West-end that Lord John Russell passed through London privately last night, and is now at Osborne House. It is also said that the leading Whigs talk of an immediate dissolution of Parliament.

LOCAL XNTBLUaBNOB. THE L-TR DEAN OF LUND\FF.—It will be seen by a reference to our advertisements, that the Library of this lamented gentleman is to be disposed of by auction. The announcement must, we feel convinced, be hailed with pleasure by the clergy of the diocese-not so much for the opportunity afforded them of making valuable additions to their book-shelves, as that they will thus be enabled to provide themselves with a fitting memento of one who stood so high in their esteem and affection The catalogue, which will immediately appear, proves the Library to be rich in curious, as well as in useful and edifying works, reflecting, in fact, the richly-stored mind of their lamented owner. CARDIFF SCHOOLS. We perceive by an advertisement in another column that the annual meeting of the sub- scribers to these most admirably conducted schools for the education of the poor is to take place on Mondai uext, in the committee-room, at one o'clock, p.m., upon which occasion the Lord James Stuait, M.P., will take the chair. We sinceiely hope that we shall have the liatillfaction of seeing a numerous attendance. SUBSCRIPTIONS OF CLKKOY TO THE RKSTORATION OF LLANDAFF CATHEDRAL.—We hear that the name of the late Key.

VICE CUVNCELLOU'S COURT.-FltIDA Y, DEC. 6.—FRANCIS VERSUS GROVER. This case, which was partly heard during the last term, came 011 for further argument. The questions have already been noticed in the Guardian, and arise upon the will of John Key, late (,f Ely, dated in 1805, Upon the death of the testator in 1810, it was. discovered that a bequest of an annuity of £20. in Mvour of his serr^nt, Mar- garet Evans, during her life, had been erased in pencil. The executors had, notwithstanding the erasure, continued the pay- ment of the annuity until 1827. The will had been duly at- mitted to prat-¡a.te.. C pOll the question of revocation the Court had sent the case to Ltw. The trial took pltee at Bristol, when the jury negatived the iaten'.io i oi' revjkin^ the gif- of the annuity. A motion WJS made for a new trial, upon tae ground that the learned judy iad directed the jury to presume in favour of the validity of the bequest until the intention to revoke was established by the parties imp vie aiu^ the bequest. A motion was made for a Ill' trill up-ja toe ground of mis- direction. The Court li Lv; heard this motion discussed allowed the question of law as to the revocation to stand over until he hearing, which now to,¡)1;; place, Mr. Komilly anl r. VAm ;lev a.jpeari'l for t-H? '-leK'itdA'.it Mi" Wa.lk.er and Mr. Ileadlavn for the plaintiiT. His IIo uur said the ease raised three questions —tint, whetier the cliu-e ^iviajj tne annuity -.vis or iii,t c inconod or r/vjA-' l hy nv.M'is of tie [v.u.vl erasure? secondly, suppo'i:^ it nnt t) have been reeked. whether the annuity was or was not barred altogether by lapse of time 1 and, thirdly supposing the clause not revoked, and the annuity not altogether barred, for how many years the arrears could be recovered UpM the first point it was proper to observe, that the learned jurl"e at the trial did not direct the jury that the pencil erasure was to be taken, standing alone, as a revocation, but merely that the act of erasure was equivocal, and that they must decide up in such collateral facts as they had before them, and unon the nature of the alteration, as being made with p >ncil, ;uid not with any material of a more durable nature, su-'n as ink. what e.I'eot was to be given to it. He had also observed, very properly, th kt the estator had taken pains to have his will very formally drawn, and he had pointed their attention to other parts of his conduct, In the authorities which had been cited from the ecetesiasticat court, it appeared, the judges had said that a pencil alteration of a testamentary paper was to be viewed in one of two ways, either as final or as deliberative. They were unanimous in thinking that, from the nature of the act, prima facie it was to be viewed as deliberate only, and not as final. Every circumstance appearing upon the face of the instrument, as well as every extrinsic fact, was to be taken into consideration in deciding the question of revocation or nonrevocation. Without expressing his own opinion, inde- pendently of the authorities, it was impossible not to feet tie force of this mode of viewing the question. No man who with a durable material, such as ink, erased a clause in his will, could prima facie be supposed to do so without all intention that the alteration should remain; the material could not easily be re- moved, but alterations in pencil (as the learned jud,p observed at the trial) were frequently made by persons who reserved to themselves the power of revocation, if they thought fit. Tne act was usually merely deliberative. He could not say that the learned judse wn not correct i t the manner in which he hid submitted the ease t the jury. Voere would not be any justice In disturbing the o.clusiou to which the jury h-wl arrived in favour of the bequest. As to LIe case ot Meuce v..deni.e (i 8 Ves. 350), he could not understand Sir W. Grant as meaning to lav down any abstract rule upon the subject of cancellation by erasure. There a residuary clause had been drawn through in pencil so far as related to the disposition of the testator's pr >perty. The testator had allowed to remain the words, as to all my ready money, money in the public funds, goods and chattels, personal estate and effects," but had struck through the words of disposition, having written in the margin certain words calling attention to the clause, giving as a reason that he intended to make a different disposition of his property by some subsequent act. Sir William Grant having the erasure before him, and having the note in the margin also before him, came to the conclusion that the testator did intend to revoke so far as the disposing part of his will went; that he meant to make a different disposition as to part of his property that he in- tfarf^uly4'sfe4fe#Jrfcffip were to be viewed as assisting in a determination of the ques- tion. Upon the second question—namely, whether the a muity was barred altogether, he had substantially disposed of it when he directed the issue The annuity had been pail within twenty years, and was made a charge upon land. There was, therefore, no ground for holding that it was barred. Upon the only remaining question--namely, as to thenumber of y^-ars for which the arrears might be recovered, whether for six vears only, or for a longer period, he entertained some doubt. The question turned upon the ;¿;)lh and 42d sections of the recent Statute of Limitations. He would give this point further con- sideration before finally deciding it MONDAY,—His Honour again mentioned this ease, and said that he could not give more than six years' arrears of the annuity.

Consequently his position was a most perplexing one, as he had no means of navigating his vessel to Antwerp, the port f r which she was destined, but had by the late gales been so far driven out of her course as Penarth roads. The mayor told him that as his vessel was under a foreign flag, lie (the mayor) could afford him no assistance in the matter. The applicant thereupon bowed and left the court. In the course of a quarter of an hour af;<;> wards six wild looking men en- tered the room, bearing with them samples of various kind? of provisions, and asked the mayor to grant them a hearing, which request having been granted they said They lately formed nearly the whole of the crew of a vessel bound for Antwerp and which vessel now lay in Penarth roads, being detained by strong westerly winds. Fliey had unanimously determined to leave her in conse- quence of the want of proper provisions, samples of which, they said, they had witli them. They wished to know whether the mayor could assist them in procuring heir wages. His worship told them as he had before told the master—that he could not interfere. This and other circumstances induced parties to pay some attention to t ie vessel to which these seamen belonged. She ap- pealed to be a barque under Belgian colours, and had lor upwards of a fortnight been at anchor in our outer roads, to which anchorage she had been driven by th late tempestuous weather. The crew being dissatisfied with their condition, for the reasons above stated, threw out some significant hints of tho vessel (originally a British one) having been fraudulently transferred to a Belgian subject. Our townsman, Mr. Thomas H. Riches, hearing these remarks and being struck with some strange peculiarities connected with the master and crew, con- ceived a strong impression that some fraud had been committed, and therefore mentioned his suspicions to hia partner, Mr. H. Shroder, who immediately concurred in his opinion that "all was not right," and it was deter- mined to send to Mr. C. H. Stonehouse, of Newoort in whose experience and judgment in matters of this sort they place implicit confidence, andto mention the circumstance to him. At midnight on Friday, during a heavy storm of rain and wind, Mr. Riches started for Newport, and at four o'clock Saturday morning he was with Mr. Stonehouse iu Penarth-house prosecuting inquiries in order to be enabled thereby to determine what course of action they should pursue. From various sources they succeeded quietly in obtaining such an amount of information as to convince them that the owners of the vessel had been most scandalously used and they therefore determined to send at once to the parties concerned, residing in London, and who, it seems bad also received other information from Sierra Leone respecting this vessel. Upon the receipt of Mr. Riches's letter, a gentleman was despatched from London for Cardiff, with an Admiralty writ, and who was instructed to act in concert with Mr. Riches and his partner, and to get possession of the vessel in the best way they could. On Monday morning last, at about one o'clock, a strong party, including the above named individuals, proceeded in the steam tug to I enarth roads-took possession of the vessel just as she was about to sail, the sails having been hoisted for that purpose,—and brought her into our port. It was perceived that she was now named the Penelope, but her proper name is the Reatrice. It is said that she was fraudulently disabled at Sierra Leone, by boring a small hole in the side, and then sold for the paltry sum of LilO, being at the time insured at Lloyd's for £ 3000, and actually worth about £ 5000! She was laden with palm oil and bound for Antwerp, when by contiary winds she was driven up channel, and by the tact and quickness of Mr. Riches seized. Weare in- formed that by the clearest evidence her ownere will be enabled to establish their claims to her, and that as a natural consequence she will be restored to them. In that case we cannot doubt but that they will eagerly em- brace the opportunity of presenting Mr. Riches with some substantial proof of their high estimation of the importance of his services. A person who has seen the vessel states that the original name of Beatrice may be faintly traced on her stern; and that other marks are to be found upon the deck which plainly prove that she was originally a Brithb (hip.

We are happy to state that the crew were providentially saved. LLANDAFF NATIONAL SCHOOLS.—ON Wednesday la3t the children of these well-conducted schools received their annual presents, which are thus provided for them. They have amongst themselves a penny club," into which each child deposits one penny weekly, which sum, at the end of the year, amounts to 4s. 4d. Their parents are then asked by the committee in what manner they wish this amount to be disposed of, and generally reply that they wish some article of clothing to be procured. The ladies of the committee then proceed to Cardiff with their lis' —purchase the article specified, which, in most in- st uiccs, costs a shilling or two more than the 4s. 4d., but which extra sum they generously give, and then present the articles to ih- parents of the children, who, ou •Ved- nesday, seenic l most grateful. We regret to have to observe, that one of the most active and benevolent pro- moters of these schools—Mrs. Homfrav, of Llandaff House—was prevented by indisposition from taking part in Wednesday's proceedings. This kind lady, we under- stand, has, for several years, made it a point to make a weekly examination into the proficiency of the pupils. MELANCHOLY ACCIDEST. -A young woman named Mary Thomas, daughter of one Margaret Thomas, an inhabitant of Llandaff, met with her death on Thursday morning under the following- circumstances:—She had proceeded to the Geliy, a farm-house near the Llandaff station of the Taff Vale Railway, with the view of as- sisting in some of the household work. aid when in the act of drawing water from a well by means of what is termed a wynch" she looked down, and by some extra- mdi^w^Bfl.most unaccountable accident fell headlong » uosnrin; water agitated ia a most unusual manner, ran anil in- formed the inmates of the house of the circuuufnnee. Several rus led out, and on looking into the wed (which is rather deep) plainly saw the poor girl still alive- struggling in the water, with her feet, uppermost. They lustantly adopted every means in their power with the view of extricating her, but in the mean time she had perished, for whell they succeeded in bringing her to the surlace, she was a lifeless corpse'. She was only 17 yeara of age when thus untimely cut off in this strange manner. --ON- TAFF VALE RAILWAY. Special General Meetings of the Proprietors in this undertaking were held on Wednesday, at the White Lion, Broad-street, Bristol, for the purpose of empowering the Directors to raise the additional capital authorised by the Company's Act, 7 and 8 Vict. and "converting or consolidating into stock the capital authorised by the Company's Act, 7 and 8 Vict., upon such terms as shall be determined at such meeting."
