Via ALUMS = OF SIAM ANWIF. Mr. HORIIII stated that this was a ensh suiting out of the bankruptcy of Marsh, Stracey, and Co. the bankers. The facts of the case were as follows :—Tfie plaintiff, Baxter, bad contracted to build a house fiat a-Mr. I Woodcock. The parties entered into an agreement by which Mr. Baxter bound himself to complete the house by the month of June, 1824, for which he was to re ceive the sum of 5,000/. The money war placed -in the hands of Messrs. Graham and Stracey, as trustees, but those Gentlemen lodged it in the bark of ofhlth they were part of the firm, in the names of the patties concerned in the agreement. It was part of the agree. mein .that if thc house should not be completed at the-time specified, the money was to be paid back to Mr.-Wood cock. The house was not completed in June, and Mr. Woodcock gave t' e builder further time to complete it in. Mr. Woodcock took possession of the house in August, although it was not quite completed, nor was it completed until after the bankruptcy of Marsh and Co. Which took place in September. At the time of the bank ruptcy, Mr. Batter was indebted to the firm in the sum of 150004 He bad since paid the assignees 10,0001. and required that the 5,0001. which was lodged in the bank on account of the building agreement, should be taken as a set-off for the remaining 5,0001. which he owe,' to the firm. To that proposition the assignees re fused to accede, and the plaintiff therefore came to the Court to obtain its order on the subject. Mr. Monraciu, on the part of the assignees, said that his clients were desirous of doing nothing but what was just. They were of opinion that they conic' not legally, allow the 5,0001. to be used as a set-off - by the plaintiff, because the house not having been completed at the time the bankruptcy took place, the money, accord;ng to the agreement, remained the property of Mr. Wood cock, and could be employed as a set-off only by that Gentleman. The Learned Counsel, in support of his argument, referred to the case if .Barton, ia which the Lord Chancellor had decided that money lodged in the hands of Bankers must continue the property of the person to whom it belonged at the time an act of bank ruptcy tork place, and could not be made over to ano ther person, to be employed as a set-of His Honona said, that he did not feel himself called upon to make any order on the subject. The question was one which might be properly determined in a court of law, to which he would refer the parties for their remedy. CORONER'S INQUEST. Yesterday an Inquisition was held at the Perry House public-house, Strand-lane, on James Chalk, superintendent of the business of his brother-in law, Mr. Chalk, coach manufacturer, of White chapel-road, who died the preceding evening on board the floating bath, on the east side of Waterloo bridge. From the deposition of William Ferguson, a waterman, it appeared that he took him in his boat. from the bridge to the bath ; that while waiting to re turn with him be heard his cries for assistance, and im mediately went and helped him in, putting on part of his apparel ; and that, on his requesting medical assist ance; he dispatched a-messenger for Mr. Stanton, ma ma, who resides within a few doors of Catherine. street.—Margaret Collinear), an attendant in the bath, corroborated the above with the addition of the de ceased expressing his belief that he should lie imme diately, and his ardent desire once again to see his wife and children.—Mr. Stanton, surgeon, stated his opinion that heat, occasioned by walking and exertion, had in duced the deceased to bathe ; that he bad opened a vein in the arm, but the action of the heart had ceased ; that be repeated bleeding at the temple, and was en gaged between two or three hours without effect in en deavouring to obtain resuscitation. In reply to the questions of a Juror respecting a phial found in the pocket of the unfortunate man, be explained it to be Goula;d water • most probably intended to be applied to a-scorbutic ;Section he bad perceived in bis right leg.—The Jury returned a verdict " Died by Apoplexy."

The Palace of Falkland has of late undergone very extensive and judicious repairs. The present proprietor, John Bruce, Esq of Grangehill and Falkland, has pro ceeded in this national work with great taste as well as liberality. His first object was to have the grounds around the Palace inclosed, and this, owing to some unforeseen opposition, he effected with some difficulty. After the wall had been elected, part of it was again pulled down, and every discouragement which popular outrage could effect, was thrown in the way of the pro ceedings. Mr. Bruce, however, was nothing intimi dated, and at last succeeded in throwing the protecting investment of a seven foot stone and lime wall around the ruins and gardens. There is now no access to these interesting reliques of antiquity without authority, and the whole grounds around the Palace and the Old Tennis Court aro laid out in the most tasteful manner. The roofing of the south side of the.square has already undergone a suitable repair, whilst the parapet wall which conducted to the west tower, and which stood so much in need of it, has been almost entirely renewed. There is a new roof in the act of being placed over the very magnificent entranee, which will restore the former 'appearance of the buildings on the south :side, and leave nothing undone which could be judiciously attempted. The east wing of the Palace, which was burnt down in the reign of 'Charles the 'Second, cannot be restored to anything approaching to its former appearance. Care, however, has been had to have the windows, doors, and vaults, and stair• cases which remain, preserved entire. In one word, the process of dilapidation a nd deCay has been arrested by 'this one effort for centur ies to come, and the ruins of one of the most princely and interesting royal resi dences in Scotland have been preserved for the inspec tion and admiration of many future rderations. The view from the southern parapet of this Palace has long been admired, and as it can now be attained, not only with safety, bat even without any apprehension of danger, it will be often resorted to and enjoyed. On the one hand, the Lomond hills spread out their' green sides, and point their conical summits to the sky ; on the other, the whole Strath of Eden, the Howe of Fife, from Cupar to Strathmiglo, lies open and exposed, and `whilst the tipeetator will naturally inquire after, and regret the woods of Falkland, he will find that the pre- sent Proprietor is doing all that he can to repair the loss • to make up for the spoliation: and depredations of Cromwell's canting wee:tiling soldiery. • The Editor of the Dario; (Georgia) Gazette, an nounces a typographical casualty of . no inconsiderable magnitude, in the following pithy manner 41 Tee Weirs or Marras.—As this Paper was gels* incomes, *arcades pascal legislative proceecUnp was accidentally destroyed.% The preventive boat at Smith's Gap station, cap tured, on Thursday morning last, a valuable . galley, forty-two feet long, laden with tobacco, paintings, spirits of brandy and gin, silks, &c. said to be the most valuable cargo taken in that neighbourhood these two or three years. 'Some villains entered Clondalkin Church on Satur day, by cutting a pane of glass out of the window, and stole the cloth of the Communion Table, the window shade, the crimson velvet pulpit cushion, and cut away the cushions from Lord KILWARDRS'S pew. -Costatttaitos.--A young man of the name of Thos. 3onaty, -an apprentice of Mr. Morton, ship-builder, Dublin, had a narrow escape on Sunday evening from being a victim of that lawless.spirit, which unhappily still pervades the working classes in this city. The young man had gone with his wife to visit a relative, who lived in a cellar, in Townsend-street ; and, while • there; a man came to the stair-head, and looking into the cellar, said, I , .1 see him; there he is." Comity's wife looking up, and seeing a number of men about the doer, hastily secured it; soon after which the men dis persed. Conaty afterwards applied at the Head Police °rice, and was provided with an escort, who saw him safe to his lodgings. • CURIOUS SIPICIAIRN OF BLZNDID ANIMAL AND Vt. tiirmite LIFE, FOR BOTANICAL AMATESIRS.--011 that delightful spot, Hampstead Heath, there are now to be found great numbers of the Drosera Rohn:4llora, or qhj Catcher. This plant is furnished with a curious apparatus •for catching flies, which it lives on; the leaves - being radiated with hairs, and being provided with a pellucid viscous liquid for the purpose. The Latifolia, found on Leith-hill, Dorking, has a similar apparatus. These are the only two indigenous Eng lish plants which require animal food ; but several exotics have had the experiment of being provided with nutriment from beef, successfully applied to them. Upon the death of a worthy Baillie of Edinburgh, his relations resolved to erect a monument to his me mory. They accordingly applied to a mason, and among other directions, desired that he would repre sent an Angel, bearing the Baillie to Heaven. The mason set to work, ard chiseled out an alarming like ness of the deceased worthy ; on the bead of the Angel, he carved a wig similar to the Baillie's (which was the largest wig in the Town Council). One of his relations, on returning from London, went to inspect the subject of the sculpture. After musing some time over it, he asked the mason who the lower figure was intended for? ‘• Oh, that's the Angel lifting our auld friend to :Heaven." " The Angel! said the Gonlernan, " who e l ver saw an Angel wear a wig ?" " Did ye ever see Aleptithout a wig r retorted the artist. This was unan-* siii•erable; so the monument was erected, and may be ken ori the north side of the churchyard of the titer filiri,"Edinbursh, to the wonder of all beholsitts. • • • L • POLICE -.IF ria IG.EN CS% , 3 , MANSION-140135M:- .; 3r; uri it, .
