LAW REIViI: COURT OF CHANCERY, NOVEMBER 9. Ex-parte AIIDOTTS ire re ABBOTS, A BANKRUPT. The argument in this case, n hich chiefly affects the power given by a recent Act to the Lord Chancellor to hear the motions of creditors in opposition to the certi ficate, was continued, and took up the greater part of , the day. The ground of opposition WAS malver sation of the bankrupt effects ; hitt the only question of im portance was the application of the new power given in these cases to the jurisdiction. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, NOVEMBER a. 'His Homoua was occupied the whole day in hearing, the statement of the pleadings anJ depositions in a cause I t Arkwt fight and Stoveld,' relative to a sale of growing ti inner, but containing no points of public interest. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, WESTMINSTER, NOV. 9. JOSKETS V. DERNICR. This was an action by a broker, who bad purchased for the defendant a number of shares in the Equitable Loan Society, which he afterwards refused to receive. —The case was tried before Mr. Justice Littledale, at Guildhall, when the main question submitted to the Jury was whether the plaintiffisad used due diligence in callin g the certificates as soon as they were ready ? The Jury found a verdia for the Plaintiff, but the Learned Judge reserved an objection taken by the Counsel for the defendant, that the Society itself was Meal', as proposing to lend money at a higher rate than *legal rate of interest, - Uithout legislative sanction. Mr. Gown* now,oo tbis point, moved for a rule to shew cause why a neenwitehould not be entered.—The Couassranted the rule. FORD R. ratstaose, This was an action for slander on a veterinary sur geon, tried at the last Bury Assizes. There were several counts in the declaration, but only one of them was supported by the evidence. This count alleged that the defendant, intending to cause it to be believed that the plaintiff had committed murder or manslaughter, spoke these syords--! 4 I think . the present business ought to haye the most rigid inquiry. He murdered his first wife—that is, he administered improper medicines to her for a certain complaint, which was the cause of her death." On this cou n t the Jori fOund a verdict for the • plaintiff, with INO damages. Mr. STORKS now moved fore rule to stew cause why this verdict should not be set aside, on the ground that the words set fords were npt the subject of action. In itself the term ai murder" implied a U)pst serious charge; ' but its whole force was explained away by the subse quent words, which might mean that the plaintiffinno centlY and benevolently administered medicines which, contrary to expectation, produced the death of his wife. The Couaz held that there was no pound for dis turbing the verdict. Granting that the import of the. wards was doubtful, they must consider it as ascertained by the Jury, who were to judge of the intention with' which they were spoken. if they were incapable of the construction given to them in the pleadings, the de-, claration would be bad; but if they were capable of such construction, the. Jury wereto judge if they bore it. They had so judged, and the.C{arct could not hold. that they had arrived at a *wiong conclusion. They therefore refused the rule. CURIOUS CASE. DOE ON THR DEMISE OF SMITH U, SIR HENRY. SMITH. Serjeant Fault moved for a rule to shew cause why the verdict found for the lessor of the plaintiff should not be set aside and entered for the defendant.—lt was an action of ejectment tried before Mr. Justice Gaaelee, at Bury, and this motion was made by direction of the Learned Judge, under very peculiar circumstances. The question was, whether there may be a waiver, or dis claimer, of an estate for life, without a deed? The les sor of the plaintiff was devisee for life of freehold and copybold property left by Mrs. Brand, in 1813. Sir George Smith, tl.e defendant, was devisee of the re, tnainder. The devisee for life refused to take possession of the property in question, and also refused to receive a legacy of 500 . 1.1eft by the testatrix to repair the copy bold. The property remained without a claimant for several years. Sir George Smith finding the estate out of repair, made application to Mrs. Smith, the lessor of the plaintiff, to act as landlady and keep the pro. perty in repair ; but she constantly refused, and for ten years nothing was done. The Lady of the Manor took possession of the copybold after three proclamations and seizure, and she has since been in possession. Sir George Smith was at last driven to take possession of the estate, and it was only on his taking possession that Mrs. Smith proceeded to act under the will. These were the facts, mid the Court had to decide whether there could be a waiver clan estate for life 6.1 , parole, or word of mouth. The situation in which the defendant stood arose from the extraordinary caprice of this old Lady, who had so long refused to accept the rents and profits, or take anything under the will. The Loan 'Os= loves— Was there a tenaqt ? Serjeant Faaan—The estate was in this condition for ten years, the tenant paying no rest for the freehold. There was no question kft to the Jury, because if the Lady could waive the estate by parole, the right was in eh: defendant. The Learned Serjeant cited some cases bearing on the question from Brook's Abridginext, and Sd Derneuellonti Akrva• The Loan Caner Jusriex—Take a rule to shew cause. The Lord Mayor, attended by the Recorder, and Aldermen Waithmau, Wood, and Thompson, came into Court at three o'clock, and, after the motion that the appointment of Mr. Le Blanc as their attorney should be recorded, invited the Judges to dinner, and retired. ARCHES' COURT, NOVEMBER 9. VIE OFFICE OF vie JUDGE PROMOTXD BY DAME AND NICHOLSON V. WILLIAMS. In this case articles had been exhibited against the defendant, Williams, for brawling and exciting a dis turbance in the parish church of Tring, Hertfoi &hire, during Divine Service, on Sunday the grtth of July, by having affixed to the porch of the church a notice to the parishioners, calling on them to meet in the vestry, to consider of the propriety of removing the Churchwar dens from the office, and also far reading the notice in the church. Williams now presented an allegation, which he prayed might be acceptecl. He stated that a meeting had been held in the church, to consider of, some alterations necessary to be made in the parish ; a majority of the parishioners objected to the alterations, but no minute was entered in the Yesicrbook. The Churchwardens, prompted by tbc, gactur, proceeded to make the alterations against the exprese desire of the parishioners, and they were desirous to have the Churchwardens removed from their situation. The Rec tor refused their request to call a !Kranz, when hams admitted, that by the authority of the Lord of the Manor, the Overbears, and the major part of the parishioners, he read the notice after Divine Service, but he denied that there was any brawling or disturbance, excepting when the Constable, by the Rector's desire, took him into custody, and then same disturbance ante, but tha► was not dining Divine Service. This allot• tion, Williams trusted, would he received as some ex tenuation of his offence, hr in miiigation of assts. - Sir JOHN Nlcnot.i, rejected the admissipn of the alle gation, and observed, that it was rather an attack upon the Minister than a defence to the charge. . The refusal of the Minister could not justify any other person to read any Notice in the Church. If the Minister did wrong he could be punished, but an admission of the offence in the allegation pleaded was rather mole unfavourable than otherwise for Williams. The Rev. Gentleman had certainly done wrong in giving him into the constable's co tody, but he advised Williams to get out of the busi ness as easily as possible, because he should think, that the longer he continued in it the greater expense he would run to, and the greater triumph it would be to his adversaries. GRIGG V. OREM. This is a suit for restitution of conjugal rights, pro. moted by a husband against his wife; it has been de pending in the Consistory Court of London ever since 1819; and now comes up to this jurisdiction on an ap peal from a grievance—namely, that the Judge of the Court below had refused to rescind the conclusion of the cause, and to hear a certain affidavit read, at the prayer of Mrs. Gregg's proctor. On behalf of Mr. Gregg, his Proctor appeared under protest, complaining that the presertin of the other party's appeal relate] to an act of the Court below, sub sequently to which act the party had repeated)i com plied a ith assignations and orders of that Court, and consequently that this appeal could not be entertained. After a long discussion on this question of practice, Sr Jur -- bircnou. ob,erved, there was indi- Ar ... strong . cation, at present. of designed delays on Mrs. Gregg's part.; but upon this point he could at present offer no decided opinion. In consequence of not having had laid before him the process of the Court below, the learned Judge complained that he proceeded under some difficulty and much uncertainty. He eatertained the appeal, however; overruled the protest ; and de clared that this Court would retain the principal cause. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, NOV. 9. George Bradley, whose case was heard on a former day was brought up to receive the judgment of the Court. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS observed, that the insol vent, who earned his livelihood by playing upon the harp, requiring a cheap instrument for that purpose. went to Mr. Herriot to purcha s e one at £2O. Mr. Herriot not having one made at that price, lent him one worth £3O, until he should have made him another.— The insolvent, however, sold the latter, and never hav ing paid for it, Mr. Herriot was obliged to sue him for its amount. The Court con , ideied this conduct on the part of the insolvent most fraudulent; and therefore or dered him to be remanded within the walls for eight calendar months. Robert Savage, a Smithfield salesman, was opposed by Mr. Arnold, who swore that he had been in the habit of employing the insolvent to sell cattle for him ; and having upon three occasions directed him to pay in £5O out oithe produce of the sale to Messrs. Hammersleys' bank on behalf of him (Mr. Arnold), to the account of his Landlord, the insolvent told him •he had done so; whereas it turned out that he had only so paid in one 1:50,. and still owed him the other £lOO. A creditor, named Bernard, also opposed the insol vent's-discharge, but did not establish a case against him. The Couar severely censured the insolvent's conduct towards Mr. Arnold ; and ordered him to be remanded,l under the 16th section of the Act i far six smooths, within - the walls of the prison. EUMPTION OR MILITARY 1114111 TOL-PUTY4-1-411 a Court held on Tuesday Wu:right, two toll-keeper; were brought before the Justices of the Peace, at Glasgow, for illegally exacting toll-duty; in the one case for the horses, and the other for the gig, of two Ofßcers in the Dragoon Guards, while oil march. In the first case, the Officer was moving his quarters, in terms of an order, his ser vant was riding one of his horses with a regimental bridle and saddle, and leading the other horse, fully 'equipped with regimental bridle, and saddle with hol sters, and regimental cloak strapped behind the saddle. The toll-keeper stated, in defence, that the servant was dressed as a private servant, without uniform—that he did not perceive the equipment of the horses, and that he was not bound to believe the assertion of ever? one who might say that his horses were in his Majesty s vice, and on march. The Justices found that such horses were exempt from toll-duty; but as the servant admitted that ha bad no anifoim, and that he did not call the attention of the toll-keeper to the equipment of the horses as evidence to support his assertion, they, in the whole circumstances of the case, merely ordered the toll-keeper to repay the duty, and inflicted no fur ther punishment. In the second case, toll-duty had been exacted for the gig of an officer, driven by his servant on the line, and within sight of the party pn march, although the servant produced a certificate to the toll-keeper that the gig belonged toe Captain on march with the party. The defence was, that the toll, duty had been exacted 'under the idea that there is no exemption for the private carriages of Officers on march, or carriages conveying their family or private effects. The Justices, in respect of the clear nature of this case, and of the certificate produced to the toll keeper at the time, fined him one guinea, which they sent to the Infirmary, and found him liable to the sum of ss. expenses. THE BAT.—A curious circumstance, connected with the natural history of this little animal, was some time ago noticed in Linlithgow. A worthy burgher, with provident foresight, had laid in a fipe double Gloster cheese, against the next inlyius, and for safety put the kebbuck to win upon a shelf, in a remote corner in the house. It is well known that many hundreds of bats were dislodged from their hybernating recesses, when the old church of Linlithgow was lately repaired, but little was it imagined that many of them changed to such a different abode. When the cheese was taken down, it seemed all sound enough, except that a small hole appeared in one side, but the first cut discovered that it was entirely hollowed out, and that an immense number of bats, in a dormant state, were quietly in pos session of the interior.

They were seemingly just on the point of driving off when he came up, and remonstrwted with thetn,'when they jumped out of the gig, and commenced an attack, saying they were buth regular millers, though their conduct evinced to the contrary, for instead of blows, they began biting and kicking; and it was net until the arrival of two other watchmen that they were securest. The watchmen 'hewed their hands, which bore strong marks of having been bitten. The Magistrate having called upon them for their defence, one of them said, he and his friend had just arrived in town, and know. lug the celebrated Cribb, they had paid a visit to him last night, and might, perhaps, have drank a little too much. Mr. }Luxe—And did Mr. Cribb teach you to mill in the way yen did last night? Defendant—No; Mr. Cribb is a different person; and I deny that the watchmen were bitten at all. The Magistrate thought otherwise, and ordered the parties to find bail. HATTON.GARDEN. Three boys were charged by the Street-keeper with daily annoy ing the inhabitants of Brunswick-square, itc. by ringing bells through the streets, In order to excite public attention to their hot moans and crumpets. A baker stepped forward, and expressed Ms doubt that such conduct infringed the law ' • but the Magistrate read from Mr. M. A. Taylor's Act the cla use against blowing horns, or using any other noisy instrument, and set that question at rest. He, however, dischatged the delinquents, upon their pro-1 mising not to repeat the offence. ROPIRRY AT MAJOR GAILDINRIL'S, TOIIIIILIDOI WILLLS..— Yes terday, Joke Brown and Richard Goal*, two strapping young fel lows, dressed in a rather countryfied fashion, yet having a good deal of ill•disguised town about them, were brought up in the custody of Upton, Brown, and Mills, Bow-street patrol, charged on saupicion of being concerned In a burglary and robbery, com mitted a few nights back, in the house of Major Gardiner, at Tun. bridge Wells, from whence property to a very considerable amount was carried off, information of which had been received at the dif ferent public offices in the metropolis, where it was presumed the robbers would endeavour to make away with the property. Mr. Serjeant SiLLON said he should remand them until Tuesday, In order to afford time for a communication being made to Major Gardiner on the subject. WORSHIP-STREET. Monday, Armes Rose, Joins Doyle, and Awakens Scrims, who bad been porters in the employment of Mr. Sadgrove, of Moorfields, land Philip Chambers, a parter, and Elizabeth Lloyd, a cook, in the employment of Mr. P. Mulle tt, were brought before Mr. Baum upon a charge of robbing their employers • as were fros. Pennon, a broker, of Old-street-road, with Mary, his wife, upon a charge of receiving goods from these persons, knowing themi to be stolen. After a careful examination, hir. Bimr committed Doyle and Rose for robbing Mr. Sadgrove, their employer, and Pearson and his wife for receiving the property, knowing it to have been stolen. Chambers and 'Lloyd were remanded for further examination. QUEEN-SQUARE. The attention of the Magistrates was occupied a considerable time in determining whether the Commissioners of Pavements, or the Dean and Chapter of Westminster, were bound to repair ko chister-row. On the one hand it was urged, that the Commis -1 slimes having since 1785 collected from the inhabitants of the row In assessments, .88000. and expended only half that sum in repairs, were bound to keep the road in repair, though the Com missioners had declined receiving any rates during the last two Team On the other hand it was contended, that the Dean and Chapter had erected a gate at the end of the row, and received money annually for permission to pass up and down it, and had done other acts of ownership ; and that it in feet was a bye-road in the eye of the law, and a part of Tothill-fields, the whole of which was the property of the Dean and Chapter.—The Magistrates ordered the Commissioners to repair the road within two months; but they gave notice of appeal against this decision. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday, F. Payne and J. Lem, wbo stated themselves to be Officers of the Customs, and J. IfiAim, who described himself as a superannuated pensioner belonging to Bow-street Office, but no longer possessing any authority to act as a constable, were brought before Mr. Comm, to answer the complaint of Mr. H. 'l'homp. moo lasdlord of dm Bei lavabos public-house. in Duke -street, Grosvenor-square, who charged them with an outrage. It ap peared that the defendants, at eleven o'clock, on the night of the 6th, went to Mr. Thompson's house, and though several lodgers were in bed in their rooms, insisted on searching the premises ' as they said they had informati o n that a private still was worked in the house. It came out in evidence that no information had been sworn at the Excise Office and that no warrant for searching Mr. Thompson's premises had been issued by a Magistrate, as required by the inth and 11th William II f. c. 4 and 7. Two witnesses said, that Long bad told several persons that they had sworn informations at the Excise Office, against Mr. Thomp son, for having a private still, but that the whole was a falsehood. Mr. Comore said, that this altogether was one of the most scan dalous acts of outrage that could be conamitted under the pretended 'sanction of authority ; and no doubt the Excise Office would coo. `eider themselves bound to notice the proceeffiegs of their Officers., It is not to be endured that people shall be liable to have theft' houses entered, their families disturbed and awned. in the dead of the night, under the pretence of a search of ibis kind. pasticu larly in dd. great metropolis, where ikon is 'Volta vast amber of Constables and Officers of VilltAlS descriptions; that if such eests-1 dales, abuses were not punished; tie evil would be of an alarming nature indeed. It did not appear that any assault had been com mitted, bat an unauthorized, and clessly a forcible entry had been made into the lodger's (Mr. Carpenter) room; and for this the three defendants were liable to indictment at the liessions. which he would strongly advise Mr. Carpenter to have remorse to. With respect to Mr. Thompson, his proceeding would be an action of trespass; for, as he gave permission to search his house, under a suppose autiverity, and IN threats or violence were used towards hint, the Maelstrits could not Wiliam The parties declared that they would follow the Magistrate's ad vice; and the defendants being known. it was not thought neces. eery to hold them to ball. Suntan Arrow BY Font. Ara.—A fatal accident took place lately at the colliery of Halbeatb, near Donferm line. Two bop, of about twelve years of age, were diverting themselves near a new pit,' which had been excavated only I. few fathoms. One of the boys threw dpwn the bonnet of his companion, who descended in the bucket to recover it ; and, having staid longer than was expected, the other boy swung himself down by the bucket-rope to see what was the matter, when both of them were suffocated in the bottom of the pit, by the `elsoak damp, which was afterwards ascertained to be three feet in depth. INUNDATION IN GlRMANY.—Heidelberg and its en virons are under water. The river has risen five feet above the inundation of 1817, and is within four feet of that of 1784. The post from Stutgard has not ar rived for two days. The Ille, which on November Ist had fallen a little, has again risen. Nothing is heard of on all sides but misfortunes. Travellers who reached Strasburg on November Ist, from the other side of the Rhine, could not describe the alarm caused by the in undation on Friday evening (October 29), near Ras tadt. The Murg, rising above its banks, carried away several loads of wood, and blew up two or three bridges. The wood having all collected near the bridge of Ras tadt, the water rose in one hour into the lower rooms of the houses and stables, and the people were obliged to move in all haste. With great difficulty the cattle were saved; and every moment there were seen float ing past drowned animals, the ruins of Houses, furni ture, and fire•wood. . The tocsin and other signals of distress were heard through the whole night. The loss will be very great. The road is intercepted in several places, and the communication is kept up by boats.— The water is very high also at Bischosheitn. Fustu nately the Rhine has not swelled much, but its tile is ,dreaded.--French Paper. • MR.

On their first reaching e l f ground the balloon rebounded about six feet ftom the earth, when, by the assistance of several couraryru en . it was held down by force, and the aeronauts joyfully stepped on terra firma after an absence of 15 minute,. A singular circumstance was experienced off' seh e , Bill, during the neap of the late spring tides. A Nea t part of the Ledge was visible from the deck of the Light ship, at the rocks termed the Oweis; and some of the crew had leave to go thither in a small boat. For a distance the, men really walked dry shoi, and one of whom brought off a flat white stone, now e on . vErted into a head-stone for a child he had recently buried in Selsea church-yard. Such a low tide was never remembered to have been spoken of in the m e . mory of the oldest inhabitant. Last week, nearly all the colliers in Ayrshire struck work, for an advance of wages. On Friday se'nnight, there was a large meeting in Templeton Wood, near Old Cumnock, which was attended by deputations from all the surrounding collieries ; the object of which meeting was to concert measures to induce the masters to raise the price of coal, and give them a rise of wages. New Cumnock produces the best coal in Ayrshire. Lerbere are two seams, one twelve, and the • , ther nine feet thick, partly dross, and partly light coal. There I ate large quantities of it sent to Dumfries, Ayr, Kil marnock, &c. for the gas works, and the iron foundries. It is sold at the hill at 4s. a ton. The carriage to Ayr and Kilmarnock costs 1.55. a ton additional; to Dum. fa ies the carriage is 275. 64. The colliers make from 18s. to 20s. a seek. The Bth of September, the day of the races, five young men were arrested in the neighbourhood of the Champ de Mars, for having held—one as banker, the ethers as assistants—a gaming table, in which it was easy to render themselves masters of all the chances, to the disadvantage of the players. The banker excited the covetousness of his dupes by shewing them two rouleaus, which, he said, contained pieces of gold, and offering to bet sums to any amount. His companions gained at every throw, whilst the dupes constantly lost heir stake. All five were brought before the Coos rectional Police. Three of them were acquitted. The banker, named Dupleit, who confessed all the circum stances, and one named Malmonte, upon whom were found the rouleaus, which contained nothing but paper, have been condemned, each to two months' im prisonment, and 100 francs fine.—French Paper. Monday evening, the weavers of Bangor gave a ball, commemorative of the establishment of a branch of the Scottish manufacturing house of Peter Hutchinson, Esq. in Ireland l and in token of esteem for the improved con dition of the operative weavers of the North, caused by ,the introduction of that Gentleman's capital and mode of dealing with the workers. A large ball was ele gantly fitted up and festooned with laurel for the occa sion; at one end of which, in the centre, the initials 44 P. H." were very conspicuous. Mr. James Cowan, the head of the respectable branch here, and other indi viduals connected with the management, having been invited, on their arrival were cordially received, and partook spiritedly of the gaiety of the scene. In the Course of the evening, refreshments were handed round, and the dancing resumed and kept up till an early hoot. Upwards of Uty couple—men and their wives, lads and their sweethearts—neatly and somewhat elegantly dreised, were present on this interesting and joyful oc lasion. Our informant adds, that the entire festival , was Conducted in the beet of good humour, and with a .propriety of manner highly creditable to the intelli gent inhabitants of this peaceful and thriving town. A Southampton paper, in reference to one of the new candidates for the representation of that town, asserts, with great apparent simplicity, that he is already a bkuing to the place.
