It appeared that an indentere:a settlement was waited is 11lay, 1817, by . the Countess of Roselyn, for the purpose of askew • provision for Tryphosa Jame Campbell. the wife of Jams Campbell, of Emsworth ; and by the said Lodestar* Lady Rnodyn directed that two gen tlemen, appointed trustees, should stand possessed of the sum of tO2I, beak annuities (which bad been transferred into their names), upon trust during the joint lime of the said James Campbell and Tryphosa Campbell, to receive the dividends Ole the said bank annuities as the same should Write due, sad invest the same is the purchase of like amen ities in their Lames ; and immediately after the daemon of the said James Campbell, if his wife amid be then liviag, upon trust to pay her and her soaps dininF her life, the interest and dividends which should from time to time accrue, doe em well on the original Nam of 691/. as on the accumulations which should_be made thereon during the joint lives of the said James Campbell and his said wife, and alter the decease of Tryphosa Campbell, whether the same should happen in the lifetime of her said husband or after his decease, to stand powered of the capital 011ie said Bank annuities upon trust foe Charlotte Camp. bell, the daughter of the said James Campbell and his wile, en her attaining 21 or day of marriage; bat if the said Char lotte Campbell should die under age or unmarried then upon trust for the said Lady Roeslyn, her executors, administers tore or assigns. Lady Ronlys died in May, 1828, sad James Campbell died in October, 1847, leaving his wife sur viving him. A petition was now presented by Trypkosa Campbell, praying that toe saki sum of 6921., with the secs eanlations, amounting together to 1,9191. 19s. ' might be transferred to her apmi the tenets of the deed of 1817. An objection was raised to this petition on hate]: of Baron Wrotteeley, as the legal personal representative of the said Lady Roselyn, under the 'Thalami% Act, 39 & 40 Geo. e. 11l ; sad it was contended that he was "stilled to each part of the accumulated fund as had arisen from the dia. dmds received since the death of Lady &mays. The Vice. Chancellor said in this case the ;tuition had arisen for the Met time upon a deed, but it appeared to him ea reading the butgaajle of the Thelluseon Act, that the same sort of construction mast be applied in a deed as had always been applied to a will. There was nothing in the set which would absolutely destroy . any provision intended to be merle which was in form an ;seem of what the law allowed. The wards of the statute were, " that no person or persons should, after the passing of the act, by any deed or deeds, amender or surrenders, will, codicil, or otherwise howsoever, settle:or dispose of any real or pummel property to and in such manner that the meta, Meats, profits, or pro duce thereof should be wholly or partially accumulated for any longer term than the lite or lives of any such grantor or settlor, or the term of 21 years from the death of such grantor. settlor, devisor, oe testator." Is this ease Lady Roes lyn had transferred a ram of stock into the Desoto( trustees who were to stand posesesed of the same, and to accumulate the dividends daring the joint lives of the persona Lamed. Lady Rosalyn died in May, 1828, sad the predecessor of the two lives died is October, 1847. The question was whether the dizectioa to accumulate was wholly void, or whether the oesetrueties, fee the first time applied by Sir William Grant, is the elm of " Grifithe v. Fete, •' and afterwards confirmed by Lord £ldos,might he applied to a cam of this sort Upon reeling over the words of the statute, and the obeervatioas of Lord Eldon, his opinion was that the direction should be taken to be good for as much of the joint lives as expired during the life of Lady Roselyn. The effect of this would be that the socamslations during the life of Lady Rosalyn would go upon the traits of the deed of 1817, and the rest of the seatatilatlese hem the death of lady Rosalyn to the death id James Campbell would go to Lady Rmalyn's personal S - spressafative.

Srarutz.--ffiestuto LOME MM.—This was a wit instituted by a hothead sad wife to set ride, en the ground of misrepresentation sad fraud, a deed executed by the wife before her merriage. The deed purputed to be a settlement of a debt at 600 f. Noe to the female plaintiff from the defendant Stapler) upon trod, to pay her the interest for life, and to bold the principal r< her death on trust for the daughters of the defendant Stapler and two relatives of the female plaintiff. The cue stated by the bill was, that the female plaintiff, who could neither read nor write, was frau dulently led to believe that the instrument we. a gag. to her from the defendant Staple,. A further ease tea by the Ina was, that at the time of the exication of the deed the marriage had been agreed upon between the plaintiffs to the knowledge of the defendant Staple., and that the deed was eaetuted without the knowledge of the husband, an was therefor; void m a fraud on his marital rights. 'lhe circumstances of the Iramaction are fully stated in the judgment. The case was sawed at great length some days sine, by Mr. Knoell sad r. Nalder for the plaintiffs, Mr. Bacon and Mr. Selwyn for the defendant Staple*, and Mr. Renshaw for parties interested under the impeached In strewn.

The stoy of the MOO may he told thus :—This lived at Peterborough an old teas of elie same of Ashby, a widower, as I collect; be had a maid servant, called Mary; she was his only servant, and atipclrs to have performed the multiform duties' belonging to her plate in • manner satisfactory to her saint. notwithstanding her literary deficiencies, which writ considerable ; for it is to be ga thered from tie evidence, that she could neither read nor write. In process of time Mary married and became Mn Molten, and, on that event, quitted her place, bat not for a long time. The husband soon died. She then re turned to service, and continued with Mr. Ashby in the same meanly down to the period able death, which hapnaed in the mooch of December, 1845, when it appears that he had made her his executrix, and also his We residuary legatee. She accepted the !office sad the gift. which, however, I col lect, would have been of slight value but from ttio ci cam. team that, shortly before dm testator's death, he hail on tend foto a contract for the sale of his real estate, tie a pee d= of it; a rate of Skimp which, as it wee . 61 by as Peterborough whom she then a attorney at Pemid Mr. Owlet, operated as a conversi - a for the tof the penonsl state, Negotiations on that point took place be tween bun. on her Isabel!, and Merin Banner, as the attar stye for the eons of Mr. Ashby (who seem to have been de visees). which soon took the tarn of • treaty of • min.

The deed was clouted by Mn. Muskat, mu of Irmo alb WI her mark, and it was Sped by Mr. Staples. That ar. Staple*, at some ties' or times before and after the execution a the dad by Mo.

It is indeed the case of himself and hie denehters that he is chargeable :with the capital sum of 6001.. re sited by him front her, partly before hoe, 1846, Ypartly in that month, as he says. Amidst that Mrs. Muskat had an rondos in favour of the Tender, who were her Maims, sad of Mr. Staples's daughters, I &pre load it to be impossible to deny that the deed was ea in- IiFSBOSP, tits emission ot which was an indiscreet sad he prudent step on her part. The deed did not mane or give' se her any intent' independent of overture, nor any con diment or other power of requiring security or investment, ate of revocation or alteration by will or otherwise. Now, although a woman, she might change her mind, and although widow, she might be disposed to marry i do not collect that she was post child-beariar, or that she thought herself eo. Moreover, every prom mentioned in the deed might booms Make:tit, or die in her life-time or treat her ill. Mr. Starr (however secure as eircuUstanees in 1845) might possibly become or may become 11180iTeld Of a resident is Frame or in the Voited States, or he may die worth nothing. if I were obliged spore the materials before me to express an opinion whelks? mere than half of what this unednestird servant was worth is the world was afford by the deed, that opinion would be in the affirmative. That she ought to ban been recommended not to encore each is lastrument, and that, knorant, and a woman as she was, she eight, before executing it. to have bad the name puthalst sours in which it was objectionable brought soder her n ineties, it must, I 'spree, be in vaia to hey. This duty word have been Incumbent ere Mr. as m, if be bed bra sonsalted ce the subject, whin he was sot. As the mar was trantseted, that day was Mr. Staples or Mr. Plekkthe osly . attota as it has been shady mentioned, web Mr. Mosher in the traneactlies ribs settlement, or era em of those two gentlemen. Now, Mr. Staple* has not sad. pesially without the consent of the parties (ethernet, malt sat, hive been examined Si • IMAM in the cause. — Mr. Plata is a witness for the defendant.

Peter borough, respecting • policy of insur ance on her furniture, and when she gave instruction for the mode of settlement of the 6001. ; that according to then instructions she waste take a life Merest, but that she bail not then determined how the capital was to be disposed of after her Beath: that on the 9th of May, 1846, lee attended with the draft with blanks, as to the final depositors of the 6001. at her home; that Staple" was not pretest, nor say me else, when the ist eructed tbe whams to fill in the basalts; that she infsemed him that her rearms for benefiting the daughters of Stag*. were that she bad bad great reek under the will of lit. Ashby, and that the gifts to the Teasley' were on account of their relatiooship to her ; that he engrossed the settlionset himself on the 13th of May,1846, sad the same wee euestal by her on the 16th iu Lis preseaa , and that he attested Ils execution by her and by tares ; that the deed was Ned over to her by the WHOM. red that ate appeared to rainy nd ii... On his crossematination the id= mittcd that except in tee matter of an insurance, he Ilellei was professionally employed before by Mrs. Musket, I that he did not know that Mr. Ganes was her solicitor, bored what she had steed to him as to that gentleman gong to London to prove Mr. Ashley's will.—His Honour onstlased as follows .—Now, if it is in proof that this woman received any advice or assistance oaths 'ulna of the deed before her execution of it, that proof is affirmed only by Mr. Plata's testimony just read, and whether that affords any at all I need scarcely say. What course the burner would have taken It Mr. Ganes had been courted cannot perhaps be said, but as :matters were it mesas plain enough that whether from ignorance, from irepacity, from negligence, or from bad intention, upon the pert of one or both of the two scum, of whom one or both county owed her the duty of sins and protection in it, she executed the deed without such advice and without such peotsetios as 'ha ought to have had ; and that it is impossible that the court can view the truessetion with ap. probation, or with any conlideace of being able wifely to "scribe to the want of atteatina, of knowledge, of capacity, or only of delicacy, the manner in which this very ignorant and not very wise woman was handled. I may observe that compliments to her capacity for brims. which an paid by the Staple' anew's, seem to be confined to those docu ments, sad are not diecrersble in the evidence ; although if Mrs. Janis did tell Mr. Genes thatGriggs was shoos' alwap drunk, seek an affirm of confidence during • quarrel between the two ladies ought not to go to the ac count of either party. His Honour then read th• evidence of Mr . Pearce, a negese at Peterborough, and Mr. Ganes, the latter k no whom said that Mrs. Origp was wanting is ordinarywledge ignorant of the ordinary transactior of life, easily infloirard, and very illiterate; that she could neither read son write, and would readily , fall into the opinion of others; that a common expression of ' Mn. Griggs, when speaking of Mr. Staples, was, .. He is 1 really the only hind I have lan tell my mind to," and that she used always, befogs awning to anything, to say she meld have what Charles Naming Mr. Staples) said. liwi tin wade his Hower slid that had the plaintiffs, by their bit, pat their ass se throe pounds. which wars sustained by ash ribose, it was ridable that the court would have MVP mode a domain the plaiatithe favour for the 6001., sad mend Ms died. But the bill put the seas upon other remately, that the der ma invalid in they equit against ' ' marital right, sad moreover, ma reduce Kamer and plain cheating in the Modest son mr, so as ile be spa 'mainly to a criminal prescutiois i that it tem earaiked, timely, from a Mrs. Muskat, by a sna dimmed ownerney bosom Mr. Staple. and Mr. Rad le seam to into the execution of the deed under the Sedge ma panes that it was a mortgage merely for her security ad lees upon the property of Mr. Stapler, and chat she s• enderstoodi it from their repreostations at the tiros. Now, as to the first of these two grounds, if it had been proved in the cause, that the plaintiff, Thome Griggs, was rimed to bear mkedtothe °the/plaintiff at the time when she executed the deed, and if it were also a ad* inheres that until he bad married her, he was in imoreace of the transaction, and without any useful or substantial ie. formation, Hs Honour thought that although she wee a a. l plaintiff, the cent would prebably have relined &gorillas traumatic; but such a cam wee not established, nor was that as to the imposture re/pecan the deed. Hie Hearer Ibis pt. the palatial time to consider whether they wield sobs muse to try whether before the time when Mr! . ...

His Honour said that ape the pleader and the present prods, takes topthrr, the court could do no more than this, sad Nthe phiatia sleeted sat to go ban a jury, the bill mot be dismissed, without costs, and without prejudice to media suit. The ease then stocd our for the plaintiffs to consider which alternative `se would prefer. COURT OF WIEN'S BENCH.--Bavontoar. fatness in Benno.

It was not because rh i e s Uerite had proved abortive that the Goespany had ceased to exist. The duties of the parties towards the public bad not ceased, for they had incurred debts; and it was not competent for them to renounce or repudiate the schwas as abandoned until those debts were paid. As regarded the defendant, therefore, the business of the company was not at an end. In his oMnioa the old* of the company was the place of business of the de fendant, who was sought to be charged for a debt as a mem ber of that company, end the requirement of the statute mad, in his view of the case, been complied with.—Mr. Justice Mauls speed with Mr. Justice Coltman. With regard to the improbability of the bill coming into the hands of defen dent hen leR at the office, such improbability arose through his own fault.—Mr. Justice Williams concurred with the Lied Chief Jaetica.—The court, therefore, being divided in opinion, the rale became a dropped rule, sin td verdict stands as it was entered at the trial.

He had been in the Custom house fee award years, and had married the daughter of • farmer named Taylor, who lived in the neWibourimied of Met& The plaintiff proved his mar riage by two whams, who appeared to be strangers to the parties, end ill the maw= of the cause not one witness inti mate with the pidatiff and his wife, or who could speak to the terms up= while they lived together, was called.

It was opened by Mr. Sellout She" that the de fendant had been celled on to attend the plaintiff's family last May, and although the alleged cease of action bed sot ocean= until the 7th of September, when the plaintiff's wife wrote a note to the defendant, there was only one parson, who bad ever seen the defeadant, examintd. That witness, who was a servant at the Portland Coffee. house, be ' Oxford-strut, stated that about six o'clock on the 7th of September, a Ludy asked far a bed at the coffee-house for herself sa d her husband. The lady remained and about 10 o'clock a gentleman came. They pared the night together, sad the gentleman went away at 6 o'clock next morning.

Oa the following Friday whiter was taken tithe =diem, of the defendant, whom she identified as the gentleman who pared the night with the lady at the (toffees heroes. The wham said she bad never seen the de fendant before, but she undertook to identity him at the , trial.

Ramo Swoon.— Alderman Wilda waited upon the Lord Mayor on the subject of using lotteries, valmeriptions, gad DEW sweeps, the recent decision of the City magistrates not bluing operated quite we:tansies', seamy bad orntemplated. The alderman stated that notwithstandiag the conviction of Hr. Willis before Sir Peter Laurie sad himself, and the confirmation of that con victim at the Leedom sessions, the " eerier " were still car ried on, and to ea extent of which his lordship could scarcely Iwo an y kW, the offenders being some of them publicans, sad some peresos engaged in other bagmen. In his own ward he hod manifested his determination to prevent the gumbo by refusing to fumy e license of • person who had held a " sweep" in his house until he had satisfactory secu rity that there would be no repetition of the offence. That hint had been taken. end the sweep was accordingly put as end to, and the homes renewed. The publican's tater had undertaken that no more Derby sweeps or lotteries should be held in the house. it appeared, however, that the party who had been conducting that lottery had removed bis business from the ward of Castle Baynard to • place at • short distance outside Temple-bar, and bad printed droulars stating that in consequence of Alderman Wilson*. continued perseverance to put down all lotteries or raffia la his ward, Mr. Watts, of the Fleece-tavern, Deo toes%commons had relinquished drawing sweeps, and that B. Appleton had therefore been induced by the number of applications made by thou who are averse to such interfe rences to continue drawing. One of these circulars had been transmitted to him (Alderman Wilson) from a large manu facturing firm, by whom between 700 and 800 men are me played. with the following letter : sir,—We take the liberty dolling your attention to the Mcleod Sweep edvertimensent. We accidentally dircovcred it in possession of the party to whom It is addressed a COMMA labourer in our em ploy. From what we can discover, It appears that parties in London see constantly seeding limiter Weider" with a view to deprive poor ignorant senor of • portion of their earnings ; and we feet particu larly glad to hear front this circular of Alderman Wilson's continued Rersererenee to put down all lotteries and rallies in his ward. The Lord Mayor said he was ready to adopt any course most likely to put en end to the practice in the opinion of the City Solicitor.—Alderman Wilson said he thought it would be advisable, now that the magistrates in the City had esta blished the illegality of the " little goes," to send the ripen he had received to the Secretary of State, in order that the Attorney-General might deal with them as might be coed dered most expedient. He had received several eireulege which had been issued from a place in the Strand, called the Bating-office," at which it was evident the " sweeps" were carried on in the most open manner, and in direct contempt of the law. (He here produced several printed bills, detaW ing the particulars of the lottery transactions he was sew downing). He thought it meet important that the notice of the lsw officers of the crown should be drawn to hiss eta. blishment, as the magistrates had no power to ie. With respect to the licensed victuallers of the City 01 Leo don, he hoped the aldermen would cause a circular to be sent to them, giving usurance that in no case in while • " sweep " was sanctioned should a license be granted. The magistrates of Middlesex had come to that detention tion.—The Lord Mayor said he was obliged by the comma elution. made to him by Alderman Wilson on a subject which bad excited such grave interest throughout the country. It was extraordinary that atter the deebeose already come to, and the distinctly avowed opinion of Wee Attorney-General that " sweepsillegal, there stseohl be any persons so rash as to 'section practices of the kind sad he should consult the City Solicitor as to the lega l I propriety of issuing notices of the description alluded to by Alderman Wilson. As chief magistrate he should consider himself bound to make every exertion of which he was ea - noble to present the injurious continuance o' the system. — Alderman Wilson said it bad been suertained that in many of these " sweeps," if en individual not belonging to • par ticular clique happened to turn up • prize, he was robbed of it under the pretence that he had a wrong nearer. He thought that information would be likely to operate with many, but with thou who were induced to frequent public houses upon the expectation of " Derby advantages," nothing short of serial want was calculated to have any effect. GUILDHALL Tug CITY VAGRANTS. Another swarm of wretched creatures were brought up for begging within the limits of the City of london. Several bad money found upon them. Most of them were sent for seven days. It was stated that, in courquence of the mane vagrants committed during the week in the City, the Comptes', in Oiltiour etreet, bas been in such a crowded date as to render necessary the removal of upwards of fifty prisoners to New gate, where temporary accommodation has been provided for them. WORSHIP-STREET.—Astoritak DtecieAca To TMI OVAIIINI.—T. Lincoln, a private in the 2nd Matinees of the Grenadier Guards, was charged with assaulting Mrs. Ellen Kirby. The comp'oinent, who exhibited a severe laceration under one of her eyes, stated that she was returning home at about 9 o'clock in the evening, and heard a threatening ex clamation from some one behind her, and on turning her bead she saw the prisoner, who had • youngwoman with him, ad vancing rapidly in the same direction. Not supposing for •mo meta that the observation could be directed towards herself, she proceeded, and was immediately overtaken by the pri soner. who placed himself before her in • fighting attitude, and struck her a terrible blow under the lett eye, which laid her cheek open, and dashed her against the wall. She screamed loudly for assistance, which was promptly affor'ed by • policemen, who happened to be close at hand, and, with the aid of a gentleman who had witnessed the transom lion, the prisoner was aseured.—Mr. Foster fully corrobo borated the evidence of the complainant.—The prisoner ad mitted the assault. He had been previously followed and jeered at by two or three women, and he was under the low prudes that the complainant was one of them.—Mr. Arnold said that had not the prisoner acted under an erroneous sup position he should have visited him with the highest amount of punishment he had the power to impose. He should, how ever, reduce the penalty to 60s. In default the prisoner was committed for six weeks to the House of Correction. THAMBS.—Botarvotxxcn.-00 Saturday, Mr. Salen tine stated that he bad received from W. E.

They further state that these resolutions were approved of by the board, subject to two reso lutions, one of which still forms the subject of a correspondence, and, therefore, may be settled.
