Be sides the losses and damages at Elsineur, a letter has been received last week at North Shields, from the Muter of • the Woodhouse, dated the 2d inst. from Gottenburgh. This ship was miraculously driven into that port. with Inas of most of her sails, boats, &c. In the night she saw, six men upon a rock not' much larger than the ship and the sea breaking frightfully about them; she passed the stern of ore wreck and the broadside of another, and after most wonderfully escapingtherocks,brought up in smoother water. She intends refitting at Copenhagen. Cap fain Boom, obseives,that had he not kept a ,press of canvass upon the ship, she must inevitably have been lost on the rocky lee shore. Tuesday se'nnigbt there were several peals of Chun der heard in the neighbourhood of Keswick, and hail and snow were deposited on the mountains in Borrow. dale, those of Newland:, and several of the adjacent mountains: about 500 yards of their perpendicular height was covered with snow, and on the north side of the mountains very - little of it had disappeared on the evening of Wednesday.- Mr. Crosthwaite's ther mometer, at the Museum, stood at Sli deg. at eight 'o'clock in their:tuning of the 231 instant. On the d ty preceding this . fall of snow the weather was unusually warm among the mountains from 10 to three o'clock. DatuNo Buttot.aair.--,Between the hours of one and two yesterday mornilig, a ,most daring burglary was committed in the dwelling house of Mr. Jour. daiae, York-place, City.road. The family had been Id the play, and •did not return home until a late hour, after which time the burglary murt have been committed. The villains who effected it had previously scaled three walls, each nine feet high, to gain admittance into tke yard in the rear of Mr. Jourdaitie's house ; and from the marks visible on the back door, it appeared .that they attempted force it open by a Crow bar; they then, with the crow , bar, chisels, and a hatchet, cut a hole large enough; ,to admit a man, through the strong brick wall out of the privy into the kitchen, and without disturbing' the family, they broke " open the cupbeardS an, 'drawers iu the kitchen and parlour, and succeed:A in carrying off about forty pounds worth of save. plate, and a vast quarttity 9f wearing apparel.— Among tl.e stolen articles were a silver tea.pot l silver coffee pot and stand, a silver milk pot, seven teen silver tea and two silver salt appris, twenty fits' 'linen shirts, handkachiets, &c. and two gentlemen' hats,.leaving behind them two old hats, which- they cut up into smash bits, and they escaped astou n d an, uudiscov erect. LArritivrktiotWE: O)URT OPTIOVION . BENCH, UCTOBEIt 4 TIRE MUSTS* niP THE LIVEEPuoI. DOCK COMPANY E. Qt./META HE: This war a writ °terror from the Common Pleas lg. the toduty P4latine of Lancaster. The actin's was brought by Mr. Midst:me, a merchant and owner at Liverpool, against the trustees of the Li verpool Dock Company, to recover back the sum of 424 ls. 9d. alleged to be improperly demanded and received by the trustees, as dock dues in respect of the ship Richard. upon her arrival in the port of Liverpool, under circumstances stated in a spe cial verdict by t'e Jury. The facts of the case were these :—An Act of Parliament was passed in the 51st of the King, cap. 113, repealing former Acts passed in the 9th of An ► And 2.1 George H. empowering the Liverpool Dock Company to charge certlin duiies upon ships trading •to and from the port of Liverpool. The ship Richard was built at Whitby, in the county of York, and was registered at the port of Liverpopl, and had sailed from that port previous to the passing of the Act in ques• don, and bc.4ore her departure had paid the dues leviable under the before mentioned Statutes.— From Liverpool she went to St. Domingo, where she took in a homeward cargo fur the port of Londoa,. which port she reached in safety, and having dis charged. her West India produce, took in another cargo fur the, port of Liverpool, where, upon her ar rival she was compelled to pay the sum of AU !Os.' in respect of her voyage to St. Doniingn, instead of the sum of OW Is. 3d. in respect of her voyage from London, which the defendant, in error, con tended was due, in respect only of the latter voyage, and for which alone the Dock Company could claim.. The discussion of this point depended upon an exa mination of the provisions contained in the sth, 6 11, 7th, and I2ih sections of the Act. Atter a very ela borate argument upon the case. The Court held that the point must be governed by the 6th section, and by that the Company were empowered to claim the duty only in respect of the voyage from the port of London. Under these cir cumstances, the judgment of the Court below was affirmed. MIDDLESFX SESSIONS. Yesterday the widow of a Member of a Benefit Society prosecuted the Stewards for the sum of IVO, which, by the articles, she ought to have received after her husband's death. It appeared from the evi. deuce. she bad applied to the Stewards on her bus. band's decease for the re2o, bat it was refused by the Stewards, on the ground Of his having becn seen playing at cards in a public-house, and drinking porter shortly before his death. On this refusal sloe instantly applied to one of the Public Offices in the Metropolis, and there two Magistrates deliberately considering the case, ordered her the sum agreed on in the articles. They however refused to pay that, and in consequence she brought the present action. Mr. BOLLAND stated the grounds of their objecting to pay het the AM, and . argued the propriety of doing so from various Acts of Parliament. ' Mr. Amonews however rebutted the arguments of his opponent, from there being no appeal to the Court from the decision of two Magistrates in a case of this nature. The Court unanimously agreed with Mr. Andrews. The Chairman oberved, that in the Acts of Parlia ment referred to, the Legislatuie undoubtedly had it in view to act liberally and for the protection of the individual members, of every society. The rules and bye laws of such societies were obviously to be under .stood by the wise provisions of the Legislature, .as forming part of, and as incorporated with those Acts of Parliament, provided they had received the neces .sary sanction of the Quarter Sessions. The present. objection therefore to the order of two Magistrates below, could not be sustained by the Court. These Magistrates had acted b strict unison with and can formity to the spirit and letter of the law, and had also conformed in every iota to the regulations of the society in question. This Court durst not alter their decision. It was for the Court to inquire wl!e ther the decision of the Magistrates had been com plied with, and if it had nut, then the two defen dants ( the Stewards) had been guilty of gross con tumacy and contempt of the authority of the Magis [rates. It was not in the power of the Court to go into the maim of the case, and therefore the Jury would decide how far the defendants had or had not done their duty. . The Jury .found they had not complied with the Magistrates' order, and the Court ordered them to enter into their own recognizances of 4150 each, to pay the prior woman on or before. Monday next, or . then to come up and receive the judgment of the Coin. It is perhaps unneceuary to add, that the opiniotrof the Court was exactly agreeable to Mt. Andrews's argument in the wbole of the case. The Court reprobated these Benefit Societies as . the source of too much litigatioa A without, in fact, one benefit resulting from them to one in a hundred. George Clerk was indicted for receiving stolen goods from a :meant of Mr. Phillips, auctioneer, in Bond street, he also being a servant cif Mr. Phillips's at the same time. The Court and Jury thought' .the crime %Cie rather felony than receiving the stolen articles, and he was therefore acquitted of the charge, but intimation was given him from the Bench and 'from Mr. Auxv, that as no doubt existed of his being an infamous cha racter, and a determined thief, be might expect to be'prosecuted for the felony. Biddy Chajtmaa was indicted for assaulting John Stout. The prosecutor stated, that he kept a shop in Euston-place, and that the defendant lived' in his neighbotirhood. She owed him a small bill, and seeing her go in he followed, and knocking at the door, it was opened h r . a Lady. He asked her for Mls. Chapman, and an her coming forwaid he de.' manded payment of his bill, and 61,6 a table-cloth which site had of his; and this was done in a quiet civil way. The Defendant, however, - first attacked him with abusive language, and fiext, finally kicked I , tins into they street, by which he was much injured. tie was confirmed in his evidence, as to the kicking, 3y two persons, patsengers in the Street. On the other side, Mrs. Cubit, the person who opened the door, stated that she was a lodger in the •sonse of the defer:dant, and that when the prosectr. of *sited' for Mrs. Chapman, he did it in a 'iciest .nantieh, and-whin she same forward he assailed her eith abusive language, calling her an Irish wh—e.. sad demanding to Mow when his bill was to be •••Y• • • • {paid—tit the lure time Ittris. mg an oyster knife which he held hishAnd, aid afterwards he proceoed to lay hold of the delendartt, attempting to drag her out of the house._ The Jury foiind the defendant Guilty, and tae Conic sentenced her to pay a fine of Forty Shillin; s.

George Getoge and 114.7 min Meth were indicted for an asstset on .I,t;in Btp.by, and he was indicted for an assault on them. The Jury found all Not Guilty, but as Busby is a well known chMaPter, having been toimerly in the House of Correction for similar con= duct, he was cautioned by the Court to take care how he came there again.
