A ter atio, of the 7th of James I. wherein it is re i red, that the Mayor for the time being (hall, on the 17th of November, annually be (worn before the Steward of the Cattle of Leicefler, to preferve the Duchy liberties. For t.to years after this Charter, and up to the year 1766, the Mellor and Corpora tion stied to go in procetlion with the mace before them, habited in their gowns and formalities, to the Cattle at Leicefler, where the Mayor was fworn in. When the Mayor arrived at a certain gutter, he was met by the Conflable of the Cattle, who attended him to the gate, and back again to the gutter, and when the Mayor patted the gutter, which was the boundary of the view of the Cattle, the Mace Beater was ordered to flope his Mace, and he bore it re clined upon his arm, inßead of carrying it upon his Moulder. In the year 1766 the Recorder of I.eicef ter advifcd the Mayor not to Rope the Mace, and there being a difpute between the Corporation and the Steward, K was agreed between them, or at lean a cailom was adopted, of diluting the proceflion, and the Conßable met the Mayor at the gutter in his or dinary drefs, and walked• with him arm in arm to the Callle, and back to the gutter. Mr. Brown, the prefent Con(table, infifled that the old cuflom fhould be revived, and gave notice to the Mayor, a fhort time before noon of the 17th of No• vemher lag, that the Mayor would not be admitted unlefs he appeared in his formalittrs and Hoped the Mace at the gutter, according to the good old ctif torn in King James's time. The Mayor, however, proceeded in his undrefs, and when he got to the gate he found it (hut ; but a voice from within, the Conflable's, declared that be could not be admitted; that the Steward was then holding a Court to Attar him in, but if he wanted time to prepare the Corpo ration he would adjourn the Court till four o'clock. The Mayor now contended that he ought to be per- Iniitod to go to be (worn in as he pleated ; the Con [table Willed that he fhould not ; and the Steward fubmitted to the Court, and Rood neuter between the I:tigAntE. The Sat rcivoit GENERAL and Mr. HEALD were heard for Mr. Brown the Conllable. His Honour the CHANCELLOR doubted whether he had any jurifdietion unlefs the Contlable was an officer of his Court. He was unwilling to fay, that the Mayor, after an ufage of 38 years, fhould not be admitted to be (worn in without his formalities ; at the fame time he thought form: were firVanees, 4nd it would be better to adopt the old practice. He, therefore, adjourned the cafe till Hilary Term, and recommended the parties to adjuß the ceremony ami cably on the next 17th of November. His Honour, during the fitting of the Court, wore a black filk gown, without a wig. COURT OF CHANCERY, MAY 31. RACE HIRSES.-FERMOR V. WARDER. Sir SA RAU Rost, tut- moved for an injunction in this cafe, to ftay the proceedings at law, now carried on againft the Plaintiff grounded on four Poft Obit Bonds, paired for the fum of 60:01. by the Plaintiff, in the life time of his father, fence deceafed, and made payable on the event of the father's death. The confedera tion for thefe bonds was only four horfes, which Sir Samuel Ro milly Rated were ruionyzirour horfes, withoutbloodorpedigree,and confequently the parchafer could not find out their anceftors, if he fhould want to difpofe of them at any time ; it was Rated that the Plaintiff was an years old at the time of the contract, and bad paid one half year's intereft on the bonds, in his father's life time ...the bonds were fettlect to intereft until the father's death ; and it was urged, that this was a fair contract with a man, not a mi nor, nor young. Mr. Rica ARD s, for the Defendant, fupported the contraa, and fubmitted to the Chancellor, that although his LordWp vas tn.tter acquainted with the courfe of this, and other Courts, than with race mirk., yet, that in his travels on the Northern Cit cult, he had teen Mutes worth, and fold for, one thoufand pounds each— and that as the Plaintiff wifhed to (port thole horfes at Newmar ket, in his father's life time, and was to have much money at his father's death, it was not unfair to gratify him, and make him pay for his amufentent. It was further urged for the D.fendanr, that it would be vet y hard to grant an injunction againft the Defen dant: Mr. Warder. who could not controul the proceedings at law which were carried on in the name of John Wilton, to whom Warder had affigned the bonds ; and who, as was Rated, fold the whole for about twelve hundred pounds only. It was alto Rated, that John Vi'ill'on's real name was W , lliani Wilton, and that his anfwer to the Plaintiff's bill did not yet come in, as William did not fe'em inclined to anfwer to, or by the name of John. The Counfel for the Plaintiff in turn made an appeal to the Chancellor's own experience, whether, without nobility of birth or great diftindtion, his Lordfhip bad known of any buries fold at fuck high prices ? His Lordfhip Rated, that Poft Obit bonds were not voidable or bad where impofition was not pradifed, but that in this cafe there appeared impufition, and that the age of the Plrin• tiff made no difference ; that the bonds in the hands of the affig. nee remained liable to the fame ohjeetions which exifted againft them in the hands of Mr. Warder, the original obligee ; and that Mr. Warder fhuuld be included with the Meffrs. Smith in the in junetion, for that the vendor mutt look to the then price of the market only, and mould not profit by fuch a contradt.—lnjunetton granted. HUSSEY Y. CHRIST'S. Sir SAMUEL Ro I ewe , made a motion in this cafe, on behalf of the Plaintiff, for an jojunettion to rfftrain the De'entlants, who were affignees of a Mr. Hill, a bankrept, from proceeding to fell a valuable Ihip and cargo, now under fcizurc in one of the King's dock'', for a fraud committed by the Matter and Captain up n the Revenue, in entering, as part of the fltip's cargo, fpermaceti oil, as common oil, the former being fubjedt to higher duty thanithe latter. There is a Memorial pending, and a fair profpedt of the fciz u re being taken off. This cafe was Rated to be of great importance in itfelf, and of great intereft to flap owners in general, as involving in it the (latrine and law of liens, both in England and in foreign parts, upon Chips for repairs and improvements during their voyage.— 'I he l'laintiff, an American Captain, bad a fpeeific contrail: with Hill, the owner of the Ihtp, previous to Hill's bat.kraptcy, Ripulat ing that the Captain thould receive one third part of the net pro ceeds of the car-o, char of all dedudtiun . The veffel, during her voyage, requir ed repairs which the Captain pi...wed to be made and paid tor. He therefore claimed a lien upon the ihip and cargo, for his third part of the net pr• ceeds. and the repair. made both at home and abroad, and rn..ved for a receiver. The Couple, fur the Defendants contended that this was a new cafe, and that it w.,s preps tly cogriz.sble by the Court of Admiralty, where the rit iritinie and civil laws were belt underftood and pradifed; a diftindtion was taken up as a ground of argument between legal and equitsble liens, and between Englifh and maritime intet eft for money, and silo between liens for repairs made in England and in foreign parts—lreland.the Weft Indies, Jerky and Guernfey, in this refpett. being conlidered foreign parts. The Lord Chancellor at length declared, that this Court had jurifelldtion in this cafe, and not the Court of Admiralty ; for that the Itgal lien was a pure queftion of law, to be found by a Jury, under an iffue directed item that Court, which the Admiral: y could not dire R, and as to the equitable lien, it was to be governed by the civil law. He laid it down, that repairs made in the river conflituitd no lien, but was a contract with the owner, like repairs on a honk, and that in fu h cafes there mutt he an exprefs contract, and notice given to the owner; but that in equitable liens, no notice was neceffary, for that any one making the ecceiNy repairs had a lien without any notice, that for repairs made in foreign parts maritime intereft was to beallowed ; and that the Captain, under certain forms, had power. as agent for the owner, to hypothecate the (hip and cargo for neceffary repits abroad, which Wa3 the foundation of hot twury bonds, or to create a lien without hypothecation in fuch cafes, although uo other perfun had filch power. inftead of a..? in junaion and receiver, which the Coati was willing to grant, the Plaintiff's Cuunfcl, however, accepted the offer made by the Al- Sgriers, to give fecurity for all the Captain's claim, ou.tke talc of the flip sod cargo. MUTIIJ AT VELLORE. DISTRISSING DRTAIL RESEFCTING THE LATE MUTINY AT TELLoRIC, By THE WIDOW OF LIEUTENANT-CO LONEL F—. " Colonel F. and myfelf had retired to reft at ten o'clock. About two o'clock on Thurfday morning we were awakened by a loud firing. We both got out of bed, and Colonel F. went to the window of his writing room, and called repeatedly to know the caufe of the diflurbance, to which he received no reply but by a rapid continuation of the firing, by numberlefs Sepoys affembled at the main guard. Colonel F. then went down !lairs, and in about five minutes re turned to his own room, and requefled me to bring him a light. I did fo. He then fat down to write, and I (but the window from which he had fpokets to the Sepoys, fearing fume (hot might be directed to wards him as he fat, for they were firing in all direc tions from the main guard. I faw my hatband turn pale as afltes. I laid, good God ! what is the matter, my dear St. Joha ? To whiCh he replied, go into your room, Amelia. I did fo, Two minutes after, I heard him go out of the hook. Between three and four the firing ceafed, and the drum beat in confequence of my hufband's exertions to quiet the Sepoys. I heard no more firing for tome time : it then began again at the European barracks. 's I bolted all the doors of my room, and brought my children into it. Falling on my knees, I fer vently prayed that Colonel F.'s endeavours to reflore peace to the garrifon might be fuccefsful, and that his life might be (pared. I twice cautioufly opened the hall door, and felt my way to the lower end of the hall, to look where they were firing molt. I per c.ived the fire to be chiefly diresled againd the Euro pean barracks. ss The last time I ventured from my room, as I Rood at the lower door of the hall, which was quite open to the Veranda, a figure approached me. It was In dark I could not fee, but by the light of the firing at the barracks. I was dreadfully fright ened, expeEling to be murdered every minute; and having left the children in my bed room, I dreaded their lan hour was alto come. I had, however, the courage to afk who was there ? The anfwer was, II Madam, I am an officer."—" Who are you," I returned. " I am an officer of the main guard."— " And what is the matter ?".. 4 4 A mutiny ! every European on guard has been killed, except myfelf, and we (hall all be murdered." I made no reply, but walked away to my room, where my-babes and fervants were. 'rhe officer went out of the oppofite door of the hall, and was butchered mot cruelly in Colonel F. ' s dreffing room. I have fence heard, his name was Lientenant O'Reilly, of the fira battalion 01 Regiment Native Infantry. 'I When I heard this converfation I began to think it unfafe to quit my room. So loon as day-light ap• peared, I went into Colonel F.'s room, and law tome Oh:tiers of the 69th lying dead. Four Sepoys were at this time on the watch at Colonel Marriott's door, and feveral were iffuing from the gates of the Palace. The latter were not firing, but making a great noire. There was firing at this time apparently in all parts of the fort ; though at the main guard and barracks a 1 teemed quiet. They were then employed in ran facking the bottles, ii tent on murder and plunder. " At this moment 1 took out my hollsand's minia ture piElure, which 1 tied on under my habit (biro determined to part with that but in death. Scarcely had I fecured this much valued refemblance when I heard a loud voice in the hall adjoining my bed room. I moved foftly to the door, and, looking through the hole, difcovered two Sepoys knocking a cheft of drasers to pieces. I was (truck with horror, know ing their next vifit would be to my own apartment. My children and three female fervants were at this time lying on the mat jun before a door which led into the back Veranda, and which, at the commence ment of the mutiny, Teemed the fafeft place. As (hots were fired at the windows, we were obliged to remove as far as poffible from them. I whispered my Ayah, that the Sepoys were in the ball, and toll her to remove from the door. She hurried the chil dren under my bed, and begged of me to go there alto ; but before I could reply, the door we had juft left was built open. " I go; under the bed, and was no fowler there, than feveral (hots were fired into the room ; yet although the door was open, nobody entered. I to rlc up a ball which fell near me under the bed.— The children were (creaming with terror, and I ex peeled our lad bout was come. Willing, however, to make one effort to lave them. I got from my hiding place, and fled into a (mall chamber adjoining on the back ftaircafe. I then opened the window, from which I law only two horfekeepers, I returned inflantly, and defired the Ayah to take the little babe in her arms, and fnatching up Charles into my own, I opened the door of the back flair-cafe, and ran down as quick as poflible. When we got to the bottom, we found leveret fepoys on guard, at the back of the houfe. I (hewed them my lit tle ones, and defired my Ayah to tell them they might take all we had, but to (pare our lives. One of them defired us to fit down in the liable with the holies; another looked very furly, but did not ohinder us from taking his fellow's advice. We had not been rested five minutes, before we were ordered away by a third Sepoy. He direded us to go into the fowl houfe, which, having a bamboo front to it. of course expofed us quite to view, till the fame m in brought us an old mat, which we ufed by plating it before the door to conceal us. Afterwards the lame compafficnate Sepoy brought my little buy half a loaf of bread to fatitfy his hunger. " Here I fuppofe 1 fat about three hours in the greeted agony of mind endeavout ing to quiet Charles rwhom I found it very difficult to pacify. From my concealment; I faw the Sepoys taking out immenfe loads of our goods on their backs, by way of the ramparts—which made me fear they had dill pollif lion of the works. I know not how I was fupported. Through the mercy of PROVIDENCE I kept my fenfes through all theft horrors; what I aloft dreaded to hear of was my huiband's murder—and I really be lieved I fhould have braved death, and hatched for him on the parade, if I had not been withheld by the consideration of my babes. " I hoped for the arrival of the t 7th dragoons from Arcot. The few lines Col. F. wrote in his room, I thought r'sofl probab'e, were intended to be lent to Col. Gillcfpie, who was that morning coming to fpcnd a few days with us—but whether Col. F. had the means of fending off this difpatch I know not.— Still, however, I thought the news mull meet CO. Gillefpie on the road, arid, hearing a tremendous firing at the gate, my hope grew thong that the re giment was arrived. " Our houfe by this time appeared quite deferted, when on a fudden a number of the infurgents ranted into the Court, and called aloud to find znd put me to death. The Ayah requeßed me to retire into the fartheß corner of the fowl houfe, Which I did and took Charles along with me, and covered him with my gown. The firing at the gate became now In ilrong, that the people about us were obliged to fly to it, and once more vacated the houfe, by which means we I efcaped death. 4' I was fo preffed with ilia, that feveral times I was fain to chink dirty water. I heard diliinelly the horfes of the 19th on the draw bridge, and the huzza repeated aloud. It was then I began to conceive hopes, and prefently after I heard our people enter the fort. An office: rode in, and called for me by name, but I could not anfwer. Again my name was repeated ; an officer met my eyes, who looked, as I thought, like my hufband. I (prang forward—it was Mr. M'Lean.—Where—how is my hufband?— He is alive, was the anfwer. Colonel Gillefpie gave me the fame affurance; and thefe two officers taking me up [lairs, made me drink a glafs of wine and water. When the agitation of my mind had a little fublided, I heard that Colonel F. was wounded, though not dangeroufly, and that he mull be kept quiet. About an hour after I was told by the Sur geon of the tsith, that my hufband was in danger, hot that worfe wounds had been cured ; his were flefh wounds, and the balls had not lodged. Hope Rill eziaed : 1 would not even afk to lee him, left the fight of me fhould agitate him too much. Alas! I too loon difc..vered that there bad been no hopes of him, among thole who were about him, from the moment that he received his wound. He breathed his lag about. four o'clock the fame evening."

Thirteen years have 1 devoted my pradice to the exclulive treat.. ment of Three Diforders, and the fuccefsful refult of my plan gives me additional ardour to t. ppole, as far as I am able, the ravages of thofe Complaints which are the moil important in the Cztalugue of Homan Infirmities. After initiation into every Branch, as an Army Surgeon, i formed a with at an early period of pradtice to relent individuals from the ignorance of uneducated men, or the equally dunger..us precipitancy of general Praditioners. Tlie Thi-ce Difordcrs, to the cure of which I have devoted my attention, compare every fpet ies of VENEREAL INFECT ION, whether of a recent or lot.g duration; silly. all kinds of debility, whether ariling from the habits of fchool boys, or the indulg<.nces of mature age ; and,laftly. that dersngcment of the fyllem in wo. RICO Whit.h is called BARR ENN ESS, or STERILITY. _ _ Numerous Difcales are the refuli of ignorance, or hafte in the treatment of a Simple Gonorrhaf.l ; and it not unfrequently hap pens that the feeds of Life are poifoned by the indifcrieiun of an unguarded hour. By a fuperlor method fuch Complaints arc 064 cured; and, even where others have failed, I truft that I may p.c fume to offer a radical re•eftabllfhment. Few, however, are the cafes of complicated dint& In this dif. order, compared with the calamitous fituations of men, who, iron an indulgence in a folitary vice, or the prevalent gaieties of a falhionalele life, acquire that slate of debility which is the una voidable confequence of rock pernicious habits. Where the unhappy fuffercr brn ods over his mifery, hut care fully conceals his misfortune, it may be fume conf. , lation for hint to know, that although it be an objed of doubt or uncertainty with other praditioners, the removal of thafe deficiencies by the gradual progrefs of renovation, is the acquirement of my evert. ence If the rites of Bacchus or Venus have begun to reduce manly vigour, much amity will be prevented by an early counteradlon of this languid bate; and in thcfe cafes no great difficulty will occur. But where this deficiency has for years exifted, a proper perk verance is indirpenfably requifite to revive the numbering (park, of life, and to re-animate the connitution.
