SIAGRANS v. WHITS. This was a question upon the construction of the Act cif the 58d George llf. c. 71. By the 7th section of that Act it is enacted, that in all cases where any question shall arise as to the amount of the reasonable costs, expenses, or fees, due or payable to any witness summoned on the hearing of any petition to set aside the election of a Member cif Parliament, the Speaker of the House of Commons shall, on applica tion made for that purpose, direct the same to be tailed, and the person taxing shall report the amount to the Speaker, who shall be at liberty tl certify the same as evidence of the demand ; and by the 13th section it was enacted, that in any action for costs, expenses, or fees, which shall have been so certi 6ed, the Court may, on the application of the plaintiff.. order judgment to be entered up for the sum adjudged to be due ageing the defendant, in like manner as upon a warrant of attorney. The plaintiff, in this case, had been summoned as a witness on the trial of the Dublin election petition before a CoMmittee of the House of Commons. He attended on the part of the defendant, Lieutenant-Colonel Henry White, the sitting member for Dublin, end his costs having been taxed and certi fite in the manner prescribed by Melia., application was now andel° the Court on his behalf by Mt. Stanxtz, for a rule to enter up judgment for the sum found to be due to him. 'Mr. ADAC and Mr. LA*, for the defendant, opposed the application, and contended, that the Act in question had. reference only to the costs of persons attending as witnesses in support of the petition, and not on the part of the sitting member. They objected also that it' had tint been ascertained, as it ought to have been, that the plaintiff was summoned on the part of the defendant.— T-lie Speaker, in granting his certificate, had assumed that as a fact, without any inquiry having been made oa .tffe Subject: .. :TheCottar decided against both the objections, and gamed the rule for entering up the judgment.

BAUNDIRRION. This waf an action by certain members of the Coopers Company, against the steward of that body, to recover the sum of twenty pounds which the plain tiffs alleged that the steward was liable to pay, as penalty for not having, in compliance with the bye laws of the Company, provided the members with a dinner upon Lord Mayor's day. The defendant de. murred to the declaration, and the Coon having to. day beard the arguments upon the demurrer, gave judgment in the case. The LORD CHIRP %%STICK said, that although the state of his own health left him no personal interest in the future entertainments of the City, yet he hoped that the judgment which the Court was about to give in the present case would not have the effect in any degree of restricting the hospitable entertainment for which the City was so famous, and from which many persons derived so much comfort and satisfaction. His Lordship went on to say, that the bye-law which was made the foundation of this action was infected with every vice which a bye law could possibly have. It reduced a rnan.to the alter native of either going before a Magi.trate, and swearing that he was not worth 50/. or giving the Company a din ner, which might cost him 501. The cruelty of placing a man in theformer alternative was self 7 evident, while it had been most clearly laid down by Lord Eldon, that the person taking, as well as the person administer ing such an oath, %ere both guilty of a misdemea nour. He (the Lord Chief Justice) could easily conceive, that a bye-law obliging a steward of a company t.) pro vide a dinner for the members upon a.cei taut day, might be very reasonable and proper; .but the dinner which it was here sought to enforce was not rf such a description. as it had no reference to any business to be transacted, but was merely for the purpose of loamy,. For all these reasons, he thought that the declaration was bad, and that judgment should be given for the defendant. Mr. Justice BURROUGH agreed to the judgment of the Lord Chief Justice.

THE LA'Z'E DREADFUL FIRE. CO RON ER'S • I NQUEST. * An Inqiiisition wits yesterday afternoon held in the Board-room of the workhouse, in Gray's Inn-lane, be longing to St. Andie's, 'Holborn, before THOMAS . STIRLING, RI. on the bodies of Mr. 'Thomas Tingle, aged 34; his' wife, Ann, agetl 34; and their five chil dren, viz. Thomas, aged 1.0; Rmily, aged 8 ; Caroline, aged 7; James, aged 4 years; and Trances, aged five months; all of whom were destroyed in the &ides of the recent awful fire in Red Lion4tteet.• _ _ Mr. E. Wfilte, surgeon, of Ne.:sov. liest-Lion-street• I T deposed, that he lived opposite ;to where fire bap. pened. He could not say how it happe ... He first saw it about one o'clock on Saturday morning , it irliiih time the watchmen wire breaking at:4y the-shop windows of Mr. Has rivon's• house. • On art opening being made, the flames burst forth% No flames issued from any other parts then. but they rapidly spread right and left, and the houses 29, 30, and 31, were soon constrained. The Tingles occupied apartments in MS. Harrison's bodge. The shop was divided into two, and One part held by Mr. Tingle. It was reported at the time, that all the inmates had escaped, but on the following day no tidings having been heard of the Tingles, an inquiry was set on foot, and early on Monday morning the rubbish was removed, and pottions of human bone and' scorched flesh found, and brought to witness.` (These the witness now produces', and proceeded to techeicallT describe and assign his reasons for believing ,themiitp have belonged to two adults, and two children 4 , w h o rubbish had not been et-their removed, and he believed , other bones would 4e found, though trom the extreme violence of the flames he thought it probable that the bodies of the younger children were utterly consumed. Hannah Phillips said, that on the evening of the fire, about half-past nine o'clock, she called on Mrs. Tinele to inquire about a dress she had sent to be made. She saw Mrs. Tingle and a young woman at work in the shop ; a little boy, about tour years old, was playing before the door. There was no light in the shop, but one was btotight. Witness did not stay many minutes. She was not intimate with the family. George Todd, a watchman, in whose beat the de stioyed houses were, deposed, .that about half-past itwelve o'clock, he smelt fire, and on going to the spot; saw *stoke liming from Mr. Harrison s shop-windows. He-sprang hit-rattle, knocked at the door 4 and called " Fuel" Other watibmen came to his assistance, 'and assisted him in tearing down the shutters. About ten minutes after, a female presented herself' at• a win dow of the first•floor of Mr. Ilarrison's house, and got out on Lathe ledge, and would have jumped into the street, had 'not witness dissuaded her. She•walked gang the ledge, and was trice') thence into the nest !iodic through the window. She had only a night-dress mai to the best of his belief, and appeared greatly agitate& About a minute after'seeing the voman, he heard a voice from the tap of the house, calling out, " We are all out of the house, watchman l'' Witness in conse quence left the spot, and west for a tuthcock. He did not see t e person who called to hint from the top of the house: Mrs. Harrison cadre up to him the follon ing evening. whilehe was on duty, and asked him where ,the fire commenced,and be told her. She did not men tion that any of her lodgers were missing. The fire certainly commenced in Mrs. Harriso n's part of the shop. Witness considers that if it had been known that any persons were on the second floor, they might have been saved. John Lloyd, another watchman, said, that he shut up the shop of Mrs. Tingle about hall-past nine o'clock on the evening previous to the fit e. Mrs. Tingle assigned as a reason for asking him to do it, that her husband was not at home, and that her servant had gone away ill. When the alarm of fire was given, witness broke into Mrs. Tingle's shop. There was then no fire in it, And witness entered, and called out as loud as he.could, " If any one is here,for GOD'S sake let him come out." The fire was then raging in Mrs. Harrison's part of the shop. A short time after he saw Mrs. Harrison at a cook-shop close by, and asked whether all were safe' and right? and she answered, " Yes.''. He thinks if it had been known that any other persons were in the house, they might have been saved. Witness under stoodfrom Mrs. Harrison's answer, that all the inmates were safe. She appeared much flurried. In answer to a further question as to where Mr. Harrison was, Mrs. Harrison replied, " He is in the country." At the conclusion of .this witnes:s testimony, the Coroner said, that he underitood, from the turn t in quiry had taken, very many witnesses would be called, and as it was impossible that they could come to a cos elusion that night, he thought they had better adjourn till the following morning. This, after some rather warm discussion, was agreed to. A man named Walker, who was for many years clerk ot the parish ot living, Bucks, and who is about Hfty years of age, has been committed for wild on a chair of ipoisosing his wife by administering poisonous drugs to her in her tea. tie war conveyed to Aylcs- . bury goal in a catt. • SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. . . • ' ASCOT HEATII.—S I C.OND MRETING, enven om Starch or GO toes. each.
