LONDON, Nov. 5.
LONDON, Nov. 5. THE Foreign news of the week confirms the pros- pects of peace in all quarters. The Paris papers of Thursday's date announce, on the authority of letters from St. Petersburg, that the Russian Imperial Guards have been re-called to the capital, preparatory to the reduction of the army. This circumstance has been joyfully hailed at Paris as an indication of peace.—The utmost confidence was felt in Paris, that Holland and Belgium would accede to the treaty, and enable France, In conjunction with Austria and Prussia, to reduce her military force. The trial of the Editors of the Tribune and the Revolution newspapers for a libel, charging M. Casimir Perrier (the Minister) and Marshal Soult with a guilty participation in a truckling corrupt bar- gain, made by one of their friends, M. Gisquet, for II Muskets with certain contractors in England, occupied the Court of Assize for several days. M. Maralst, tht) original propagator of the libel, was found guilty, and sentenced to a fine of 10,000 francs to the complaining parties, to six months' imprisonment, and 3000 francs to the King. The other editor was acquitted on the ground that he had merely copied his statement from his cotemporary. Conjecture is still busy on the ques- tion of the Peerage. A short prorogation of the Chambers is spoken of, and a new creation of Peers still mixes with the speculations of the day. There Was some confusion in the south of France last week, by a turn-out among the silk-workers at Lyons, and some arrests for sedition at Marseilles. The authorities have been active in suppressing the disaffected. France will leave the unhappy dissensions of Greece to be settled chiefly by England and Russia. The Belgian Chamber of Representatives have agreed on passing the law to authorize the Government 10 sign the twenty-four articles of peace with Holland, as proposed by the Conference of London. On a divi- sion there were 59 for accepting the articles of peace, and 38 against them. The project of law was then sent to the Senate, which body has referred it to a Committee; who will make a report on the nature of it. Three-fourths of the Senators are represented as fa- vourable to its acceptance. Brussels Papers say, "We 'know from an authentic source that despatches from London, of the 27th, announce that as soon as Belgium shall have accepted the treaty of peace, it will be im- mediately recognised by the Powers, whether Holland assents* lo the treaty or not." The Hamburgh Papers received this morning to the 29th ult. are of great interest at the present moment, as they tend to prove that the virulence of Cholera has In general cases rather abated than increased during the last year. The mortality of the present year at Hamburgh is stated to fall considerably short of that of the preceding, although the inhabitants were then in the third week of the prevalence of the disorder. The letters from Berlin to the 22d give 29 cases of cholera for that day, and 18 deaths. On the 19th, at Vienna, there were only six new cases in the city, and one death. In the suburbs, where the people could not be got to be equally careful, there were, on the same day, 63 new cases and 23 deaths. The latest intelligence from Lisbon represents that the utmost alarm prevailed there through all the Go- vernment departments, from the apprehension of .a visit from Don Pedro, at the head of a formidable ar- mament, to redress the wrongs of his illustrious daugh- ter, whose throne has been so perfidiously usurped. All kinds of preparations were making for defence, and the city was already like a place besieged. Calcutta papers to the 14th of May state that on the 2d, the affairs of Messrs. Palmer and Co. were brought before the Insolvents' Court at Calclltta, that day having been appointed for declaring a dividend upon the assets. From the statement of the assignees, it would seem, that, independently of the advances made tor the carrying On of indigo factories for the present year, there remains an available balance for the imme- diate purposes of the dividend, of about 22 lacs of rupees, principally in Bank-shares and Company's paper, which being now at a premium may be-estimated at,:a suiii considerably beyond that stated. Of this balance the Court have directed one-third to be retained till after the 17th of August next, and declared a divi- dend of 3 per cent., to be paid to all creditors, as well in India as elsewhere, whose debts have been or may be proved to'the satisfaction of the assignees by affidavit; but tlie Judges gave no decision as to the.trust properties or the estates of deceased persons. The' Gazette of yesterday afternoon contained the following Order in Council:— "It is tliis day ordered by his Majesty in Council, that his (Jrace tins Archbishop of Canterbury do prepare Forms and Prayers to Almighty God, to be used in all churches and chapels during the continuance of our danger from the pestilence now spreading pver a great part of Europe and it is hereby further ordered,'that his Majesty's printer do forthwith print a compe- tent number of the said Forms of Prayeirs, that the same may be forthwith sent round and read in all the cathedral, collegiate, and parochial churohes and chapels throughout those parts of the united kingdom called England and Ireland, as soon as the Mi- nisters thereof shall receive the same." Another Order in Council follows, addressed to the Clerg-y of the Establishment and of the Episcopal Com- munion of Scotland, directing them in their respec- tive church, congregation, or assembly, to put up their prayfers to Almighty God on account of such danger." Wednesday, bis Majesty held a Privy Council, when a Proclamation was ordered to be issued offering a re- wardof 1000^. for the. apprehension of any of the ring- leaders concerned in the disturbances at Bristol, Not-. tingham, kc. The Hon. and Rev. R. Eden has been appointed Chaplain in Ordinary to his Majesty in the room of Lord Wfdsingham resigned and Sir A. Duff Gordon Gentleman Usher, vice E. Sneyd, Esq. resigned. ,The fleet ordered to the coast of Holland met with a severe gale and thick weather on approaching land, they were therefore directed by signal to proceed back and rendezvous in the Downs, where the last accounts left them. It is stated, as from authority, by an Evening paper, that Sir Francis Burdett is not Chairman of the Na- tional Political Union but that he merely acted as Chairman at the public meeting which was called to discuss the propriety of forming it, and that his con- senting to accept the office of Chairman to the Union,, as a permanent body, will depend entirely upon the character of the proceedings at the next general meeting. An association of the inhabitants of Westminster has been formed ,U for the purpose of assisting the Govern- ment in the cause of Reform, and protecting their own persons and property against tumult and violeiiie The view which the electors of Westminster take of permanent Political Unions, it appears, is that they have objects beyond Parliamentary Reform. Concur- ring with the reform principle's or other associations, they declare that they regard permanent Unions as un- necessary and mischievous, because they believe that reform in Parliament will of itself remove the evils which Political Unions are professedly established to cure, and; "because it would be utterly impossible for a government to carry on the business of the state if it were to be dictated to by large bodies or conventions sitting in judgment daily upon both the Ministry and the Parliament. They are willing, they state to co-ope- rate so far as the objects of reform and protection of the pablic peace are concerned; but they are not wil- ling to identify themselves with the wild theories of go- yernment beyond those objects, ox to be ctmnected as members with any society in which turbulent dema- gogues are likely to get the upper hand. & An order was sent down from the Custom-house last night, to prevent vessels from Sunderland proceeding up the river; they are all to perform quarantine. The sum of 7001. has been unanimously remitted to the Secretary of War, and has been by him paid into the Bank of England, to the account of the Paymaster- General of his Majesty's Forces, for the service of the public. Sir Charles Wetherell made his appearance in the Vice-Chancellor's Court yesterday, and received the congratulations of his friends on his recent preserva- tion at Bristol. The Irish papers and journals published in different parts of England, received this morning, give accounts of meetings to consider the propriety of adopting pre- cautionary measures against the cholera. In these dif- ferent towns it was agreed to establish a Board of Health. The Court of Aldermen have this afternoon yielded to the desire of the Livery, and re-elected by a division of eleven to four, Sir John Kay, Bart. Lord Mayor for the ensuing year. The announcement was re- ceived with cheers. Several of the principal Members of the Livery who were on the hustings declared that if the contest had been persevered in, the numbers for the return of the Lord Mayor would have reached 9,000 or 10,000. The Lord Mayor then stood forward, and in a suitable speech made his acknowledgments for the honour done him a second time; and after several of the gentlemen who have been most active in his fa- vour had delivered their sentiments, the Commou Hall was dissolved, and the assemblage retired in good humour. The Duke and Duchess of Northumberland in passing through Newcastle on their way to Alnwick Castle on Thursday, were much hissed, but owing to the vigilance of the local authorities no other indignity was ottered to them. On their arrival at Gateshead the bells of St. Mary's commenced a peal; but no sooner were their emotions" heard, than the chruchwardens and over- seers repaired to the church, and indignantly ordered the ringers to desist, and never again to offer such a mark of honour to any individual who should be inimi- cal to the liberties of the people. No outrage was of- fered to the Noble Duke, the passengers in the streets by whom he was recognized treating him with silent contempt. The Lords of the Privy Council have appointed Drs. Babington and Roupel to be the medieal officers of the Board of Health, established by the court of Common Council to watch over the state of the metro- polis. The Committee are about to obtain some of the large premises connected with the Artillery-ground, near Finsbury-square, to be fitted up as a hospital to receive cholera patients, should the disease reach Lon- don. The most active exertions are makino- by the -city committee to obtain the purification of the sewers, &c. SPECIAL CONSTABLES.—Ay an Act of Parliament which received the Royal Assent on the 15th ult., it is pro- vided, that upon any creditable person making oath that tu- mult is apprehended, two or more justices may appoint, by precept, so many householders, or other persons, as they shall think proper for the preservation of the peace, to whom an oath (recited in the Act) shall be administered. Persons refusing to take the oath, or neglecting to appear when sum- moned, are liable to a penalty not exceeding 51. And any person sworn, refusing to serve, or disobeying the orders given him (unless prevented by sickness) is liable to a like penalty. Persons resisting constables under this Act, or encouraging others to do so, are liable to 202. penalty, oi im- prisonment. Constables under this Act may act in an ad- joining county. Justices may order the constables a rea- sonable allowance for their trouble and loss of time. HORRIBLE DISCLOSURE OF A CASE OF BURKING, BY A SON AGAINST HIS OWN MOTHER.—Oil Wednesday Ed- I. ward Cook and Caroline Cook alias Ross, for it appears they were not married, were again examined at Lambeth-street Office. The prisoners, Cook and Ross, and their son Ed- ward had been kept apart since the previous examination, :and the latter, a boy of twelve years old, made such disclo- sures to his fellow-prisoners as left little doubt of the guilt of his parents of the horrible offence alleged against them. The statement was committed to writing, but it appearing to the Magistrates unconnected and unsatisfactory, Lea, the officer who apprehended the prisoners, was ordered to send for the master and mistress of Aldgate Parochial School, at which the boy occasionally attended, to whom he disclosed the outline of the appalling occurrence and this day he made oath to the truth of his statement before the Magis- trates of Lambeth-street Office, in the presence of his pa- rents. It was to the following enect :—That on the evening in question (19th August) the old woman (Eliz. Walsh) re- turned home in the evening about nine o'clock, and with himself and mother had coffee, and made the deceased drowsy; that his mother laid her on the bed, and placed her right hand over her mouth, and her leftover her body that that she so kept her hands for half an hour, when the de- ceased's eyes rolled very much and his father during all this time was looking out of the window, and never turned round and in about an hour his mother took the deceased down stairs, but where he did not know; that on the follow- ing morning he saw the body in the cellar in a sack, and he went out, but never mentioned what had occurred to any body; that after supper (about ten o'clock) his mother left the room, and shortly after he saw her go past the window with the body in the sack on her shoulder. The Magistrates expressed surprise that the body should lie in the cellar a whole day, and not be discovered, but it was explained by the landlady that the cellar was very dark and so infested with rats that the lodgers very seldom enter it. This wo- man saw the deceased go up to the prisoner's apartment on the afternoon in question, which was the last time of her being seen alive; and other witnesses deposed to the pri- soners having solicited the old woman to lodge with them for a length of time before she went. The male prisoner de- clined saying anything, and the female denied the whole of her son's statement from beginning to end and during the examination exclaimed, Good G'od how could I have borne a son to hang me !"—She said the deceased went out I, in the morning, and she had never seen her since. The fa- ther examination was then adjourned;: and was resumed yesterday.—A grand-daughter of the deceased stated that she saw her aged relative on the afternoon of the 19th of August, and told her, as she understood she was going to lodge with Cook, that if she went there they would cook her; at which deceased was angry, and said they were not so bad; that she accompanied her grandmother part of the way to Cook's, and on taking leave begged her not to go out the following morning till she called, which deceased promised that she went on Saturday before nine, and was told by the female prisoner the old woman was out, but appeared much confused this induced witness to make several earnest in- quiries of the female prisoner, who at last said, You speak as if you thought we murdered or made away with her." She pressed witness to take some refreshment, which how- ever, she refused, and went away. She made every inquiry in the neighbourhood, but not learning any tidings of her grandmother, she returned to the prisoner's lodgings, and found the female dreadfully beaten—(the boy in his state- ment said his father had struck his mother repeatedly)—her face was one mass of contusions. Witness expressed her surprise that so quiet a looking man as Cook appeared should 1 act so brutally; on which the female observed, that he was the greatest murderer in Europeif the truth was known." Witness again left them, repaired to the different Hospitals, 1 and made inquiries after her relative, but in vain; she could learn nothing of her.—Another witness proved that they had seen the prisoners at very early hours in the morning with bundles on their shoulders, and in one instance the boy carrying a sack which no. doubt was the body of a child but as they was. considered resurrectionists no notice was taken.—The boy corroborated the statement he had previ- ously made and Lea, the officer, detailed some conversa- tion that had passed between them the last night in their se- parate cells, "the man being placed in the centre, and the wo- man and boy on each side of him. He heard the female call out to Cook to ask the boy who had told him to say all that he had against her, and why lie did so ? and on Cook asking the question, the boy replied that no one told him, and that he said so because his mother did it; The examination, after lasting nearly six hours, terminated here, and the prisoners, who contented themselves with a mere declaration of inno- cence, were committed for trial. It is understood that a bill has been prepared by the direction of the Lord Chancellor, for the setting on foot, among us, of Parochial Libraries, to be charged on the parish rates. Wednesday the General Committee of the National Society for the Education of the poor in the principles of the Established Church, held their Meeting at St. Martin's Vestry-room present—the Archbisphop of Canterbury, Bishop of London, Archdeacon Pott, Rev. H. Norris, Rev. R. Lenden, R. Twining-, Esq., Rev. Dr. Walmesley. The schools of 28 places were united to the Society, and grants of money were voted towards erecting, enlarging, and fitting-up of school- rooms in 17 places, amounting altogether to 9351. We learn from a Birmingham Paper (the Midland Representative) that a chapel has been taken at Rowley, near Dudley, for the purpose of disseminating political principles in that neighbourhood. It has been opened by Messrs. Attwood and Salt, of the Birmingham Political Union." In this neighbourhood the number of men employed in the coal works, &c., is very great. —The same paper states that the election of Mr. White, as High Bailiff of Hales Owen, was effected by the in- fluence of the new Political Union there. These Unions are extended in all directions—the Birming- ham Union is making great exertions to encourage their formation. Mr. Henry Hunt visited Manchester on Monday he was met at Ardwick by some members of the Political Union, with a band of music, flags, banners, and some thousand of the populace. When arrived at Peterloo, he delivered himself of an oration in favour of annual parliaments, universal suffrage, and vote by ballot; he attacked Whigs and Tories indiscriminately, de- scribing them as "tantarana rogues all," and applying every possible opprobrious epithet to all connected with the press, the greatest part of of whom, he assert- ed, were regularly paid out of the secret service money to suppress or garble his speeches. Mr. Hunt, in the course of his speech, alluded to the Bristol riots, and characterized them as being Whig riots, with which the Radicals had nothing to do, nor had they with any of the disturbances which had taken place. They were all of Whig origin. The Bill, he declared, he thought, and had always said, would never benefit the lower classes, and called upon the meeting to express their opinion of it by a show of hands, when only three were held up in its favour; and two on a similar appeal as to their confidence in Ministers. He recommended the reformation of the Great Northen Union, that was in existence some years ago, and they would soon be able to obtain a Bill that would do them some good. In con- clusion, he said lie should be at Bolton on Thursday, Blackburn on Friday, and on Saturday he should be with his constituents in Preston. He then retired, and the meeting broke up.
NEWEST LONDON FASHIONS FOR…
NEWEST LONDON FASHIONS FOR NOVEMBER. (From the" World of Fashion" Make Sf Materials of Half dress.-Plain and figured chalys, Gros de Naples, and merinos, are the materials in favour but very few dresses of the latter material have yet been seen, and they are of the most beautiful and expensive kind. Chaly and Gros de Naples are in equal favour. The most novel corsages are made a la vierge in front, with full backs, which fasten invisibly, or else with a little fullness at top, and drawn at bottom. An ornament, of a perfectly novel form, somewhat resembling a collerette, com- posed of the same material as the dress, adorns the top of the corsage Head-dresses in Half-dress.— Satin and moire are the favourite materials for half-dress hats. We have even seen some lined with velvet, but as yet very few. The prettiest are of blue satin, trimmed with a bouquet of short curled ostrich feathers, to cor- respond. A round brim, of a very becoming width across the forehead, and rather close at the ears the brim is lined with blond lace, gathered in the shape of a fan. Atate and Materials of Evening-dress.—Among the new mate- rials which belong to winter rather than autumn, but for which many orders have already been given, are the satin Polonais and (t la reine, reps Africain, psilentine., and moires a colonnes satinees. These materials are of extreme richness. The satin a la reine unites the gloss of the richest satin to the softness and graceful glow of cashiniere. A new article, called gros de Tours a rubans de satin, will, it is expected, be milch in favour it fully < quais the finest velvets The gauzes for evening dress are, perhaps, the most novel and beautiful that have ever yet appeared. These novelties will, begin to be generally adopted towards the middle of the month at present chaly and cashimere are most in favour. Some have the corsage a la Grecque, and short wide sleeves, with falling plaits it is a great improvement to these sleeves that they are lined with a stiffened material, instead of having an under sleeve. Head-dresses in Kvening-di ess.—Dress hats are becoming- very fashionable. Velvet ones begin to be worn, and will become ge- neral by the end of the. month. Some-are offeuille d'avanthe, co- loured velvet, trimmed with white marabouts, disposed in the form of a branch of weeping willow. The marabouts were of the colour of the hat, which we should observe is of the demi-beret form. The plume was placed on the right side, and fell very low on the left. The fashionable colours are feuille d'acanihe, uventurine, bruit liaii- neton and Maintenon; all these are various and rich shade of brown, rose-coloured, Swedish blue, green, red, lilac, and ponccalt,
