MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGISTRATES. Yesterday, at twelve o'clock, thirty Magistratts were .in attemiance, when the business of the day was opened by the Ch Airmln, FRANCIS CoNs; Esq. and 014 usii.4l routine business of reading the County account, Repott of Committee of Accounts, Scc. was proceeded with. PRISON DISCIPLINE. In the Report of the Visiting Justices, en the state of the House of Correction, it. was stated that in conse quene of certain regulations, four of the turnkeys had been discharged ; and the Committee had also thought it advisable to engage four persons, not prisoners, at a salary of 255. per week, to act as schoolmasters and c0 , .1c, such situations having heretofore been filled by prisoners. Mt. HOARE, the banker, considered it highly impro per that prisoners should be employed as schoolmasters, but he could see no objection to their acting as cooks.— He thought two additional men would be sufficient. Mr. FLOWER, as one of the visiting Magistrates, begged to explain. On their last visit they found the education of the children in the prison entrusted to the care of a man who had been thrice in confinement on suspicion of felony, and had been, on the last occasion, actually taken in the fact of attempting to break open a house—(Hear, hear). With respect to the cookery, he had ascertained that, being prisoners, the cooks sold to their fellow prisoners who had money, the dripping and portions of meat which they had an opportunity of put loining.from the kitchen every time they went to and fro. These had been considered sufficient grounds for the regulation. Ms. HOARE declared himself satisfied. NEW LUNATIC ASYLUM. A Report relating to the proposed Asylum, baying been read to the Meeting— Mr. Sergeant PELL said, that his motion, relative to a sum of money being granted by the county for a new Lunatic Asylum, had been adjourned on the last County Day, for the purpose of obtaining plans of the intended budding, and estimates of the probable expense that would be incurred by the County by its•erection. These documents were, however, not yet ready. It also turned out, that the title to some land, belonging to Lord Jersey, at Hanwell bridge, for the purchase of which the Committee bad entered into a contract, under the sanction of the County Magistrates, was not yet con).', plete. On those grounds he was not prepared to press' the motion; he was at the same time desirous of re• serving it until the neat meeting of the Magistrates. A long desultory conversation here took place, when it was suggested to the Learned Sergeant, that if he withdrew his motion then, he would not thereby be debarred from bringing it forward upon a future day. Upon this understanding Mr. Sergeant Pell witlidiew his motion. Sir °SORGE FARRANT observed upon the enormous expense which the erection of the Asylum would entail upon the payers of the Poor-rate of the County, and he argued that although such a building might have been heretofore necessary, yet, owing to the praiseworthy exertions of Mr. Sergeant Pell, and those who acted with him, the necessity was now done away with.—for great improvements had lately taken place in the several places of reception for pauper lunatics. He concluded by proposing the following mrition—“That the Act of Parliament passed its the last Session, was fully adequate to the remedy of the abuses of Private Lunatic Asylums, and it appeared to the Meeting unnecessary to saddle the County with any additional expense on, that subject, and therefore that no further proceedings should betaken at present in the building of a County Lunatic Asylum." Mr. BALLANTINE seconded the motion. Sir George Hampson, Sir P. Laurie, Colonel Wood, Sir H. Wilson, Mr. Wilberforce, jun. and Mr. Brydges, *lade each a few observations, when Mr. Broughton and Sir John Gibbon moved and seconded a motion of ad journment, which was carried, at half-past five o'clock, by a majority of 25 to 18. LA W INTELLIGENCE. -...1e. - VICLCHANCELLOR'S COURT, Om<lsza 30. JUDGMENT. RE-PARTS TIPPER IN RR DOLBY, A BANKRUPT. _ The VICII•CHANCILLOR gave judgment, at the sitting of the Coon, upon this bankrupt petition. The ques tion for his decision was, whether Mr. Cumberland, one of the assignees of the bankrupt, had purchased part of the bankrupt's 'property at the sale under the commis sion? It would be a superfluous proposition to say that it was the plain principle of this Conn, in its jurisdiction in bankruptcy, not to allow an assignee, directly or in directly, to purchase any past of the estate, which it was his duty to administer for the general benefit of the cteditors of the bankrupt. It appeared clearly, in this case, that Cumberland had expressed his intention of becoming the purchaser of the pt operty iti question, and that Mr. Brooks, his solicitor, did, in fact, purchase that very property, and it was now contended by the peti tioners, that he so purchased it as the agent of Cum berland. It appeared, however, from the affidavit, of Cumberland and others, that he having consulted with Brooks as to the legality of his carrying his intentions into effect, was advised that he could not, under any circumstances, buy the property at the bankrupt's sale. It appeared also, that Mr. Cumberland, who had en gaged a Mr. S*eeten to bid for him at the sale, sub sequently distinctly revoked that order. • His Hottotir could not refrain from remarking here the improbability of the case, as sought to be made out by the petition. It was, in his opinion, highly iniproha:. ble that Mr.. Brook., theindividual who had advised Mr. Cumberland of the illegality of his purchasing the hack-' rupt's property, should be the very person afterwards se lected to bid for him at the sale. The very fact of Mr.i Cumberland's having openly•avolvedhis intention of be coming the purchaser before he was made aware of the illegality of such a proceeding, did'away, in his Honour's mind, with many of tie facts put forward in support of the petition. His Honour, after going through several of the affidavits on both sides, and remarking on the a-al manifested by Cumberland and one of his co-assignees, Mr. Moliyueux, to gct 'the bankrupt's stock irpto the most ba,eAble condition. said that no suspicion ought to rest on them fir not inserting in their eat rlogoe-of the stock Mr. Dolby's interest in several rights. Mr. Dolby stated that he paid 1,1.574 for these copyrights, but he did not add when that money was paid, or what specivs of interest he derived from the purchase, so that his rights were, as respected this part of the property, perfectly undefined, and it was therefore not the duty of the assignees to put up to sale the copyrights, of which they knew nothing certain; but it was in esi . dance that the auctioneer, when questioned on the subs jitt during, the sale. stated openly , that whoever, purchased any part of the printed stock became also entitled to Mr. Dolby's interest in the copyright of these storks. It was also in evidence that Brooks bad not purchased « Hook's. Roman Hibtory,` one pf she, works that Cumbethind, bad expressed ,his intention of buying. Mr. Brooks became the purchaser of 4 . The British Theatre," and other works, which .be resold to Mr. Cumberland at a profit of one hunched and thirty pounds. This circumstance certainly raised, a suspicion, that Brooks was the agent of Curobetlind; but that oference was discharged by the affidavits of persons who best knew the teal facts of the case. Brooks swore, that, from the circumstance of there having been numerous failures in the book trade, he thought that a speculation in books might , be profit- Aim, and that, therefore, he was induced to ,purchase the livoks in question. His Honour proceeded at con siderable length, and with much minuteness, to cons• ment on the nature of the charge brought against Mr. Comberland, and the evidence brought forward in support of it. Much of that evidence Might perhaps be attributable to mistake unintentionally made, and perhaps founded upon the fact of Mr. Cumberland having expressed his determination of becoming the purchaser of the bankrupt's stock. But there were other parts of the evidence so contradictory, that his Honour was called upon to spy to which party credit was due. For instance, when the evidence of Mr. Dolby con flicted with that of Mr. Cumberland, his Honoui could not forget that Mr. Dolby had, upon his last exami nation before the Commissioners, sworn that his pro petty, if well managed, would be sufficient to pay all his debts; these debts amounted to over 21,0001. and the available property to m:•er these debts con ' sisted of stock to the value of 6,5001. and debts to the amount of 5001. Add to this the extraordinary mintier in which the accounts were kept by him._ For instance, in the midst of his entries respecting business were to be found such entries as these, 4. This is excessively hot weather"--.4 paid to Mr. Lewis 21." I. it rained nearly all day"--.41 went to Hampstead last evening, and drove Susan round the Heath." These circunistances, to say the least of them, showed great levity of understanding, and a very inaccurate method of keeping his business accounts. Upon the whole of the case, therefore, his Honour was of opinion that Mr. Brooks did not purChase as the agent of Mr. Cumbet land—that the re-sale'to Mr. Cumberland did not take place until the 27th of January, three days after Brooks purchased the property. Under these circumstances the petition must be dismissed; but as there was, per haps. something, however innocent, in Cumberland's conduct to excite sospicion, the petition, as respected him, must be dismissed without costs. There was, how ever, nothing in the conduct of his co-assignees to raise the slightest suspicion, and, as far as they were con cerned, his Honour dismissed the petition with cots COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Wcrosnisviia, Ocr. 30. ROBERTS V. LADY GRESLEY. Sir J. SCANLIITY stated, that this was an action to re cover the sum of 1611.11.. IOJ. for goods sold and delivered. The plaintiff was a cheesemonger in Great Mary-la-bonne street, and had supplied Lady Gresley for a long time with cheesemongery and, other g , ods, in all amounting to 5631. 4001. having been paid at ditf, rent payments, leaving the balance which the plaintiff sought to recover. Mr. WILLIAMS, for the defendant, contended that the proof was insufficient that the plaintiff had supplied so large a quantity of goods to this widow Lady within a space of two years, a past of which time she had been out of town. The Jury immediately returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 1631. 11s. 10d. EVERETT E. BURKET. Mr. GURNEY stated, that this was an action for the board and lodging of the defendant ' s son for nine months, at the rate of ten shillings a week. The plain tiff is a saddle and belt maker, and took the lad on trial, intending, if he liked him, to take him as an apprentice. The boy, however, not being careful and diligent, the plaintiff refused to sign his indentures, and sent the lad home to' his father, requiring payment for his board and lodgink. This statement having been proved, Mr. BRODRICIC addressed the Jory for the defendant, and contended that there was no promise implied or understood on the part of the defendant, to pay for the board and lodging of the lad. Lord TENTERDEN left it to the Jury to say, whether the plaintiff was entitled to any remuneration, and what? After retiring, and consulting for nearly two,hours, the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 81. Between six and seven o'clock on Wednesday night, two well dressed men went into ;he shop of Mr. Faulk ner, gold and silversmith, Great Titchfield-streer, to lock at some watches, and several were shown to them by Mts. Faulkner and her son, but they bought none.' They came backlagain, when Mr. Faulkner, jun. was alone, and, after requesting to look once more at a par. titular watch, they threw a handful of snuff into his eyes, and ran away with it. An excellent mode of supplying water has been adopted at Greenock. The water is brought from a considerable distance through a siOne conduit, having various beds in which the water makes a deposit. it is then canard forward in a comparatisely pure state, until * it reaches the filters, which are, we believe. on the same principle as those of Paris, where it undergoes a complete purification before it is served out to the pub*. COBBETT.—Alluding to the number of his wor ks, observes—" If such young men wish to know the grand secret relative to the performance of such won- 1 drops labour, it is told to them in a few words: be ab stinent. be sober, go to bed, at eight o'clock and 'get up at four, the last two being still nure important than the two former. A full halt of all that I have ever written has been written before ten o'clock in the day : so that I had as much lean as . any Map I eser knew any thing of. If young men si ill, but set aoout the thing in earnest, let them not fear of success; they will soon find it is disagreeable to sit up or rise late. Lite rary coxcombs talk of consuming the midnight oil! No oil. and a very small portion of candles have I ever consumed; and I am quite convinced that no writing is so good as that which comes from under the lightof the sun." Some little time since a lid, apprenticed to,Mr.Ox berry, farmer, of Darsham-hall. near Yoxford, took it into his head to run away from his place; after a short absence he returned to the premises, last Thurs day, about 11 o'clock at night, stole his master's best horse, and proceeded on his way to London. In passing through Colchester his conduct excited susp.c'on, and the landlord of the public•house where he st rppesl, taxed him with having stoker the horse ; the lid confessed the rinds, and .said he bad .acted under the direction of some man in.Loadon.to whom be was to rake the horse, and described that this :person had been working in the neighbourhood of Yoxford, as a bark-shaver. A reward of 204. was offered for the recovery of the horse, and the owner dispatched a constable in pursuit, by the Old Blue coach, on,Friday. morning. On his arrival at Colchester, the constable soon learned that the horse and thiri were there, detained. He took possession, preferred the charge against the boy, and conducted him to Ipswich gaol on Friday evening, where he re mains fully Committed for trial. . The horse was on Saturday restored to its rightful owner.—Bury Herald.

Mr. nobler observed,that the, ery gross Imposture practised by the parish. in foisting its Poor upon Bishopsgate Parish, was well calculated to excite a 'sittoilar spirit in the poor. The beadle said, thgt the pauper took his wife into the parish of St. Luke and obliged her to feign illness for the purpose of enabling him to obtain what is ealkd the suspension of an order, a process ky which g parish becomes respeusible for the rapport of an alien pauper, and afterwards can /JAM Irani the paupers parish a resompelise.

Mr. Nobler—And how was the poor woman? The Beadle said, that the surgeon, upon going Into the room, found the woman in bed, groaning, and apparently in the agonies of death. Upon feeling her pulse, however, he found that it was as good a pulse as any in the parish—(Loud laughter). This fact was reported, and the parish of St. Luke, of course, would mat contribute. The pauper, upon finding that kis plan would not answer, huddled his wife into the parish chair, and sent her home to Bishopsgate; bat the parish alkali were 111i011141111 to perceive `that she had scarcely a stitch upon her, although she bad got clothes upon 'her wedding. • " Where did you leave the clothes?" said the pariah officer. " Why," said she, " my husband thought that as I was going back to you, I bad no occasion kw the ckrthes , and he sold them all'—(loud laughter). Mr. Nobler ask e d what the officers intended to do with the pauper ?—The Beadle said they Were of course All i ed to take the poor woman into the house ; but, as fur the Man, as he was de. ,'ermined not to work at all in the house, they would not proceed against him. He was too clever for the authorities. A, MAN OF TAIITS.A Schoolmaster of respectable appearance, was srought up, charged under the following circumstances— The Street-keeper of iiislumsgate parish.
