Court. IN Tilt MATTER OF SIR WILLIAM ELFORD, DART..:3 BANKRUPTCY. EX PARTE GILEs. 1 Mr. Hoax; and Mr. GLYNN moved the Court, on a retition,• , hat the commis,:on should be set aside, and a new one isued. The ground of the application was, that the debt of the petitioning creditor, Mr. 'link, did not, on the 25th of November last, when the act of , b4nkruptcy comn.itted.anirrunt to the sum of WOE. . Inasmuch ac advice of the regript of some dividends of Mr. Truk's, paid to Messrs. Hoare, Barnett, ani Co. on that day in London, was not received by Sir ‘Villiam tlford's hank, at Plymouth. until the.2Bth. Mr. HEALD and Mr. MONTAGUE, on the other side, a fished to state the facts exactly as they were, and to abide.by his Lordship's opinion ; but it was impostant to the creditors to support the peseta commission, as extents had, since it was opened, .been issued by the • Crown to the amount of 50,0001. Mr. 'Fmk .was an old Gentleman, and thirty years Since had executed the pow er of. emu ney to the Gentlemen who then composed the firm of Messrs. Hoare, but only one of them now sue vived, and he happened to be but of town when the dividends were payable in October; . he came to town on the 25th of November, when he received the divi slcuds from the Bank of England, at two o'clock in the afternoon. The moue. was, as usual, placed to the eiedit of Sir William Ettore!, at least- that war to he rresumed, and constituted a sufficient debt, without alvice. A case had been decided in the king's Bench, that of Simpson v. Ingham, reported in the second vo lume of Ilarnewall and Creswell, p. 65, which seemed to render advice essential; but they (the Counsel) con sidered that that case was not applicable to the present question, since a distinction must be drawn between a particular case and the general one of bankers, with u hoar it was a • custom that the dividends of the cus tomers in the country should be credited to the country banking house. - The Loup CHANCELLOR wished to see the power of attorney, and to ascertain if any written direction ac companied it, to place the dividends to the credit of Sir W. &ford. This (said his L.Tdship) is nest a mere question between A B and C D, but one in which the u hole body of creditors 'are interested. Mr. MONTAGUE and Mr. GLYNN are to settle a statement of facts for the Lord Chancellor's considera tion, the objeCt of all the parties being, that a commission should be woi ked, grounded upon a sufficient debt. T.-e Chancellor will then determine whether the ',Resent commission shall be proceeded in, or a new one issued. COURT OF KING'S DENCII, AVESTAIINSTER, Dec. 24.1 11A111WAY V. ‘VILLIAMSOg.

The plaintiff refused to liquidate the debt, when, after some dispute, the defendant declared his re+olutin•' not to quit the plaintiff's house until he had received his money,' and at length struck the plaintiff a violent floor in the her, which, it was alleged, had confined hint An the house for sis weeks.

This was an action hiought to recover the value of a horse sold at Aldridge: Repo,itory, fcr 29 guineas, which it was alleged was warranted. Mr. Serjeant SIPANKIX stated the case. Mr. Aldridge stated that, in June last, he s Id a horse for the plaintiff, which was sold to t ide, and dray.quick ; there was no ether wat ranty. The horse uns sold to the defendant for 20 guineas, and was after waids again sold. Cross-examined by Mr. Serjeant Vauottart.—They used the letters ATTU, %%hid) that some per. sod would attend the sale. He had no price given him. - There was no puffing at the second sale. At thr Best a person did attend, when twenty was bid. He looked to the person, then there was a nod, then another gu;sica —a nod again, and so on, but how many nods he could not say. The defendant did not object the moment the hammer was down; but after the wht.le vale he objected to take it, saying it was unsound. • He did not warrant it, but he had heard that Mr. Crowder had said it was sound. Defendant did not object on account of the puffing. The printed con - ditions . of sale were read. Mr. Austin was a Tegulat customer, and coi,serrently was not asked for a deposit. He rejected tie horse, and it was left on the premises. No account was deliveteJ to him of it—it remained on the premises some weeks. It was a rower. Scrjeant Vavonats—That Is a disease of the larynx, Mr. Aldridge—Yon know what it is, I believe, Sir—(Laughter). Mr. Serjeant Vauoxax—U, yes ! We very often have a roarer in this Court. Re-examined—The horse was sold by the consent of the patties. By the Cam Justice—The groom bid several times; two or three. I believe there was another person present. Mr. Serjeant SIPANiIIt wished his Lordship to ask the witner. whether it was the custom for a person to attend to bid ? CHILI JUSTlCE—Ceitainly not. There is no such thing named in the conditions of sale; therefore there is a gross fraud, and I will put an end to the ca e.—l am of opinion that the groom was there to enhance the pike of a horse, and not as a' bu)er. The plaintiff' ntaA be aonsuited. The Constitutionnel states, that agents are going about among the students of law and medicine at Pat is, endeavouring to excite them to form a procession to Pere-la-Chaise on Sunday, •to hear and pronounce funeral orations over General FOY. The police and military would then be called to disperse the assem blage, and the character of turbulence and violence would be transferred from the imprudent youths to the cause of the;r meeting. The warnidg, it is to be hoped, will prevent the mischief. Accounts from Madrid, in the French Papers, state that' the KING had issued a Royal Dectee, ordering that tio Ecclesiastics sh add leave the places where they ou,ht to reside, to come to the capital, or follow the Court; and that no passport should be given them for any town. tildes., while making an application for it, they should have a written leave from their superiors, or it repairing to Madrid. or the Omit, they should besid..s have a spec;al permission from the KING biestelf.

The girl had been a servant in the house of the boy's father, Captain Thompsou.c.but was discharged ; and there was reason to suppose that this infant was tba fruit of some illicit con nexion, which she did not third proper "tn own, and had, therefore, endeavoured to lather it on this lad.

WORSH IP-STREET. The driver of the hackney-coach No. 385 was summoned before Mr. Blimarr by Wm. Anticld, an officer of this establishment, fur demanding and taking more than his fare. It appeared that on Saturday week Attfield and two. other per sons hired the defendant at the Lying-in Hospital, in Old -street, to take them to Limenouse. Ou their arrival at the latter place,coachee, not knowing who were his customers, demanded a certain sum for back-carriage. This outfield disputed, seeing that the right to back carriage did not commence until six o'clock in the evening, and is was only then half-paW five. The coachman then demanded and was paid ss. 6d; which was found to befit mote than his fare. &difficulty was then started as to theaurnmoos, which called upon the defendant to appear the following (this) day. _lt was explained that the defendant had come to the office in the hope of settling the matter prfiately with Attlield,who, however, refused to settle Other wise thanbefore• the Magistrate, and the defendant preferred hay.

The Magistrates of this office were yesterday engaged io invest'- , gating a case tending to tst.thlith the htnncence of a fringe named Catherine Ferriv,*ho is now Under sentence of death in Nevrgate. It appears that in June last, Ferris, and a gitl named Davis, were ' committed from this Of:ic.:, and tried at the Old Bailey, chafged with robbing Mr. James 31arsh, the son of a timber merchant, of 451. Mr. Alarsh, in his evidence, said, that on the evening of the 6th June, he was mute:red first by two girls, one of whoM was Davis, and while they were in the act of rifling his pockets, the girl Ferris joined them, and made use of very shocking language: When the prosecutor wes before the Magistrate, and also at the Old Bailey, he swore positively that Ferris trod Davis were two mit of the three that had robbed him of his money, although he •was tithi by one of the ntfieers, that Ferris was innocent. Wire'n. the %::rdict ut Guilty was rettirtted, Ferris declared, in the mt.it empitatic manner. that she was icitocent ; and 11..
