LAW REPORT. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 14. DOE, ON THE DEMISE OF THOMAS V. ACCLA M. This was an action of trespass tried at York, and in volving the right to property in Hull. The father of Mrs. Thomas, who claimed this property, had been re siding in Rhode Island, in 1776, when the United States separated themselves from this country, and she was born in 1784, after the independence of the United States was acknowledged by our Government. The Jury found a special verdict, stating that Mr. Ludlow, Mrs. Thomas's father, had been seised of the' property, and that he had transmitted all his right to Mrs. Thomas, the lessor of the plaintiff, but leaving it to the Court to decide whether a subject of the United States, after the recognition of their independence, could hold, purchase, and transmit property,- or become an alien in this country. Mr. TINDALL argued for the right of holding and transmitting property in these circumstances. He pro posed to shew three points :-1. That persons born in the North American Colonies before 1783, were as much natural-born subjects of this country as if they had been born in Yorkshire, and that therefore Mr. and Mrs. Lud low were natural-born subjects. Mr. PARK conceded that proposition. Mr. TINDALL would shew-2. That natural-born sub jects did not become aliens by the recognition of inde pendence; and 3. That according to the common law, and the statutes 25 Edward 111. and 4 George 11. the children of natural-born subjects were natural-born sub jects. The Learned Gentleman argued in support of his second proposition. Mr. Justice BATLEY.—Can one be a subject where he does not owe allegiance? Mr. TINDALL.—Yes, they owe a double allegiance. Their Lordships must know the care with which alle giance was fastened upon every manna-born subject.— The maxim was " Nemo potent exuerc vat, jam." Mr. Justice BAELEY.—Then all who had been na tural-born subjects before the treaty of independence were traitors if they afterwards engaged in war against this country ? Mr. TINDALL—Yes, that was so in law, as he con tended, though in effect the inference must be inopera tive where a whole nation engaged in war, leges silent tOcr anna. If the Americans were divested of natura li.i.ation, it must have been by the express terms of the treaty. But the treaty expressed no such divestiture.- 1 L resigned the Government right of soil and controul in America, but it did not release the people from their allegiance. It provided for the restitution of confis ett6d property to Americans attached to this country. 'llic Learned Gentleman argued at length on the se veral provisions of the treaty of 1783, and also of a treaty in 1791. He next proceeded to argue upon cases which by analogy, supported his case. After an equally elaborate argument by Mr. Panic, to prove that she was an alien, and therefore incapable of being heir at law to the lands of any British subject in this country, their Lordships said they must take time to consider of their jndgment. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, MAY 14. TIFE METROPOLITAN SOt7IETY TOR THE OPPOSITION OF TEM:FULL:4T INI:01.T1:441 TIE.CIOIO AGAINST JA3ICS HALE. This was an opposition directed on behalf of Messrs. l Husby and Son, members of the Society, who, it ap-1 peared, were considerable corn-merchants, and had supplied the insolvent, a Paddington cuach-master,with different quantities of oat.; for his horses. About No vember last there was some dispute about the delivery of a quantity of oats, and Messrs. Itusby's agent having applied for 'the debt due from the insolvent, his wile said, in his presence, "that her husband should never pay a shilling, but should go to gaol, and get white washed first." In December the insolvent transferred his eight coach horses, harness, and furniture, to his brother, for 731. 33/. of which he said he received on the 20th January, and the remaining 401. was to discharge richt of 401. due to the brother. The transfer, how ever, was not made at the Stamp Office until February, r , c.ntlt the insolvent was arrested for 151. said to have been borrowed of a Sheriff's-officer, and peti- tinned I,:r s chef un.'er the Act. It also appeared that the I,r‘t.es we:2 now in the same stables as usual, the furniture in dle same place as ti,ual, and the insolvent's family occupied the same premises. Mr. 11E.trn, for the opposing creditors, contended that the transfer to the [pother was a fraud on all the credit.. rs on tLe very eve of the insolvent's going to gaol. Mr. PoLLncit, for the insolvent, argued that, under the circumstances, it was no fraud. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER in delivering the judg- Merit nt !!le Court, womicred that the many sentence, -which have been passc.l in that Omit on insolvents lot fraudulently making away with their property, had not deterred others from acting in the same manner; they ought to know that they could not so easily come there, anti to use their own term, get " whitewashed," espe cially if creditors brought the cases properly before them ; the present, he said, was as clear a case of frau! as had ever been brought before the Court, and the judgment therelbre was, that the insolvent should not be discharged until he had been in custody for a period not exceeding Fifteen Months liens the filing of his peti tion, and that his imprisonment btr within the walls. Huntingdon Election closed yesterday, when Mr. STuAtur was elected by a majority of 4i. At the Missionary Meeting, Dr. Nlonittso.sr presented an Anglo-Chinese Dictionat y and Gs atoni..r, splendidly bound, which he was 17 years in compiling. The (iareita Pieniontese of the Ist instant, mentions, among the distingui•hed travellers who had just arrived at Turin, General MACAULAY, brother of Mr. ZACti A ItY MACAULAY, the well-known Secretary of the African Association. The General, like his brother, has lung been distinguished fur his untentitting exertions in the cause of humanity. A NECDOTE OF Sin E. PELLEW, Now LORD EXMODTIL-... At Portsmouth, several years ago, this gallant Officer was sitting alone at dinner, when his servant announced to him that an India nian had struck upon the brach, and was in imminent . dang er of going to pieces. Sir EDWARD hastened to the dne, and foinid the intelligence correct ; and the surf running so high that no boat dared venture to board the vessel. Sir EDNAKu , addressing himself to the crowd upon the beach,asked if any of them had heart enough to swim off with bins to the ship. A young man stepped forward to answer the challenge; and two lines having been procured, Sir F.owmtia and the stranger each took one, gained the vessel, and after safely landing all on board, were the last to return on shore. On stepping upon land, the gallant Admiral, addressing his comrade in danger, exclaimed, " Give me your hand ; you're a fine fellow—who are you ?—you must sail with me in future." The young man replied, that he was the mate of a collier, and that he should hesitate to quit a situation so comfortable for the chance of doubtful promotion. Sir EDWA au overcame his scruples; and this singular introduction added to the heroes of the British Navy an Officer unrivalled in heroic et ploitrano less a sjsaracter than Captain Jazzman Cooniax. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held at Guildhall, pursuant to Special Requisition, to take into consideration the propriety of Petitioning the Legislature for a Reform in the Commons House of Parliament. The requisition for convening the Court for the above purpose having been read, Mr. FAVELL said, when he considered what volumes of Petitions had issued from that Court, and from the people of England, for Par liamentary Reform, he should despair of any good ef fect from his motion. The City of London must have great weight on this measure; and let it be recollected that the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commons of London, had a seat in that Convention Parliament which transferred the Crown of England from the un worthy House of Stuart to King William. He con tended that the law of England required a freedom. of election, and no close boroughs, or influence of Peers. The House of Commons had itself voted it to be a high breach of privilege for a Peer to nominate, or interfere in the election of a Member to sit in that House. The worthy Member then went through the usual compara tive statement of the number of Members of Parlia ment returned from Cornwall, and other parts of the Kingdom. This was, he supposed, the reason why the Secretary of State for Foreign Affair, had said, on the question of Reform in Parliament, that the present' system worked well. He called on them to do their duty as ftepresentativei of the Ci y of. London, lot Parliamentary Reform must be ultimately carried. Ile then moved several Resolutions, and a Petition to Par liament founded on them. Mr. Deputy Rount felt anxious that nothing which fell from him should neutralize the speech they had just heard. He had Fleasure in secoat!in,; the motion. Alderman BROWN said, it was but fair to say, that, if that great and good man, M:. Pitt. Was a Refot mer in early life, yet in his after life he found that the iheo ries of the Reformers were their greatest crime. llow came it to pass that, when the Livery s of London were polled, so few Reformers were rearmed by them to Parliament? He did not deny but that there was cor ruption in Elections, and also in Committees of the House of Commons. But the question was, vvhethei the evil was so great as to warrant them in runnin risk of incurring a greater evil. He thought they had better mind their own corporate matters, and not make themselves ridiculous by meddling with measures which they had no business with. Mr. JAMES and Mr. JUPP said a few words; after which the Resolutions, and a Petition founded upon them, were put and carried by a large majority, on the thew of hands. LONDON MISSIONARY SOCIETY. Thursday the Twenty-ninth Anniversary Meeting of this Society was held at the Chapel, Great Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields. ROBERT HUMPH REY MARTIN, Esq. in the Chair. The Rev. GEORGE BURDER, Secretary to the Society, stated, from the Reports, the great progress of the S - ciety in the South Seas, where twenty islands u ere now mined to Christianity, and where upwards of 10,000 copies of the New Testament were distributed, and the Sabbath observed with holy solemnity. That the Rev. Dr. Morrison, who had spent 17 years in studying and interpreting the Chinese language, was introduc...d to his Majesty, to whom he presented a Cody of the New Testament in the Chinese language, and which is now. in his fslajesty's library. In alluding to the C.ISC of Mr. Smith, the Missionary 'at Deltiarard, the Repot L thus notices the prompt atten tion of his Majesty's Ministers to the subject: . _ " It is proper to aid, that the Directors, on being apprised of the precarious state of Mr. Smith's health, made application to Earl Bathurst that he might he permitted to retain to this country, on the Society entering into the requisite securities. This application, they have the pleasure to say, was immediately complied with on the part of his Majesty's Government, whose prompt and uniformly obliging attentions to the Directors in their various applications re lative to Mr. Smith's case, demand the respectful and grgeful ac knowledgments of the Society." iOsEPH BUTTERWORTH, Esq. M.P. rejoiced at the gratifying reports he had heard, and was happy at see ing Dr. Morrison, by whose means the dark cloud that obscured the Chinese was likely to vanish, and that the lights of the Christian Religion were likely to shine in that country. He concluded by reading a lett:r from an e,teenied friend to whom he had st . ,z. a copy of the trial, in which, after expressing surprise at the verdict, his friend says, " I opened my will and immediately in serted £lOO for the benefit of the Of course he (Mr. Butterworth) could not me.iti ; 4l name of the party, but he would state that he was a highly respectable member of the Church of England. The lion. BAPTIST NOEL addressed the Alerting at some length, chiefly animadverting upon thr proceed. ings against Missionary ScriLli, and concluded by ex pressing a hope that a reversal of his sentence would be obtained, and moved, " That this Aleeting are of opi nion that the innocence of the Rev. J. Smith was fully and completely established," which was seconded by Dr. WARDEOW, and carried by acclamations. Drs. S ritEs and NVAucar addressed the Meeting, and at its termination a handsome collection was made. A few days ago a Memorial. signed by some of the most eminent Merchants in the City of London, was forwarded to his Majesty's Ministers, in which were represented the great importance of the trade existing between Great Britain and Colombia and Mexico; the total want of regular channels of communication with those rising and productive States; ar.d the advantages which would be reaped by British merchants, horn the establishment of Post-office packet stations in one con• venient port of each of these Republics. It is understood that this representation has been favourably received by his Majesty's Government, and that two new chains of packets will be established; the one with C&oru!;ia, the other with Mexico, as swirl as the necessary arrange meats can be completed. This improvement in the communication with Colombia and Mexico will rot be attended with any additional expense to the Public, for the foreign mails are now generally forwarded by his Majesty's brigs, and the postages will fully repay the expenses of the additional Yost-office Agents wiric:l it will be necessary to employ. This will certainly be a most important advantage to British subjects who are interested in the prosperity of the new Amer ican S:ates. Tuesday forenoon, about eleven o'clock, a fellow entered the court-yard in front of Mr. Oldfield's house at Peckham, and, passing through the conservatory, went round to the rear of the house, got into the back parlour window, which was open, and com menced work by clearing the whole sideboard of valuable plate into a large basket, which he carried. Just at the moment he was about to retreat with the property, Mr. Oldfield happened to walk into the room, and seeing a fellow of suspicious appearance there, was, at the instant, unable to give the alarm. The circumstance gave the thief an opportunity of jumping out of the window with the basket of plate, which being too weighty for him, he dropped at the outside gate, and escaped down one of the by e l aw i n the neighbourhood. tRaNIVICH MUSICAL The Grand Performance of Sacred Music, which had previously been announced, took place yesterday, in St. Mary's Church, Greenwich. Her Royal Highness the Princess SOPHIA MATILDA, who had graciously conde scended to be the Patroness of the undertaking, occupied the front of a gallery erected for the occasion over the altar, and extending to the pulpit. This, together with the side galleries of the Church, displayed a brilliant crowd of the most distinguished Nobility and Gentry of the county. The numbers of the Ladies greatly pre veiled, and their beauty, aided by the various hues and gaieties in costume which the present season admits, formed a scene that in itself possessed no common charms. The pet formers were of the highest rank :—Miss STEPHENS, Mrs. SALMON, and Miss GoonALL ; Mr. BRA HAM, Mr.VAUGHAN, and Messrs. HAWES, 'CDR RAIL, and SALE. The Orchestra, led by Mr. CRAMER, em braced the finest of our instrumental performers, and Sir G. SMART was at the Organ. The first part of the performance consisted of the finest pieces from the Messiah, and we have seldom heard them with more distinguished effect. BRAHAM, in the opening Recitative" Comfort ye ;" Mrs. SALMON, in "Rejoice greatly ;" Miss STEPHENS, in " I know that Pn e y Redeemer liveth ;" and Miss GOODALL, in "But thou theist not leave," were only repeating former triumphs,' aiktl leaving the ear nothing to wish for or to regret. ' The Second Pau included HANDEL, HAYDN, SIoZART, and BEETHOVEN. The selection was so admirably ar• ranged with regard to the disposition of the pieces, that each had the chat nt of freshness in style, and the interest was sustained to the last. Among the very richeit things of tl:e day Has Mrs. SALMON'S" With verdure clad." Many other pieces deserve notice, but they would demand the same general language of praise. The Coronation Anthem concluded one of the best pet foi maces af II NuEt.'s music (considering the strength Hof the Orchestra anal Choir) that we were ever fortu nate enough to attend. As the Corrigan) e:iced from the Church to the car riailes, the n indo‘s sof the h0,,-,es %kyle crowded with weir d: es ed people, who would dortlale:s have created day r I ga'ety and thistle iu the town and magnificent P.O k, it the a eathet had pet nutted. l'OL1CI: INTELLIGENCE. HATTON:GARDEN. Yesterday, a number of respectable commercial people appeared at this (Ace, to prefer their individual charges against a Mr. Thonurs Fit;gerald, of No. I, Pmners'-llall-court, Broad-street, for obtain ing goods from them (for which he has not since paid), under cir cumstances unfortunately not novel. This was the second summons issued on the application of the parties. To the first Mr. Fitzge rald appeared, when the complainants had withdrawn, after wait ing a considerable time ; to the second . he did not think it conve nient to attend. It appeared, from a printed bill which was handed to the Ma gistrate, that the transactions in question arose out of an invitation ro speculators and adventurers to embark in a vessel which was to Bail early in April " for C.rthagcna, in Colombia; and Vera Cruz, in Mexico, entitled the fast-sailing Zephyr." A very full account was given of the commodious arrangement for passengers, male and female, and a clear geographical and statistical statement of the Isthmas of Darien. " eiuch as voile to proceed to Chili, or Peru. may cross the Isthmus of Darien ...there is a good road across the Isthmus, with covered vans to convey merchandise as well as pas sengers and luggage, by which means the long and expensive voyage round Cape Dora may be avaided. Mechanics of good character will meet encouragement, as inaay capitalists are going by this ship to establish commercial pursuits in several parts of this interestieg country." "%With this doctinnait as a letter of introduction, Mr. Fitzgerald went to several houses of respectability, described him s;ll at the agent in this concern; that there was a vessil chartered for this expedirian ; were going ; and, on receiving a sample of half a dozen shirts Iron) several linen-drapers, intimated, that should they be approved of by the colonists, an order should be given tot the ki:ll:rent bowie?, for thirty dozen of such ar ticles. The ordets were, however. not given, nor the samples paid for; and an inquiry bring made, it was discovered that the wuole WAS a de:usion. Aniont the name: of the numerous complainants. was drat of Mr. Dixon, of Fenchurch-street, who has lost I'9; :l3 also Mr. Pearce, of the City, who has suffered to the extent of The Magistrate, on boating this statement, expressed his regrtt that he did not feel himself authorised to interfere in the case ; at the same time, he felt great satisfaction that poor ignarant adventurers had been so seasonably preserved front mi;ery. 51 A RIMOROUGH, S'FIZI: ET. .krentialt Kelleher, a nr.tive of Ireland, a 1. ilow of gigantic stature and terrible hue, has been several days in custody, charged with a ferocious aud bretal assault upon his wife, by dragging her and an Want only fourteen months old, out of bed, and locking them eat of the :vont. On another 1 , cca , 4011, he seized her by the hair, dragged her naked, ;and kicking her all the way, i n to the kit chen, where there stood a large tub full of dirty water, in which she had been washing. lie dragged her over this tub, and forc ing her heal, face downwards, i;:to the water, while her body lay atretLhed L;oan the ground, he held her in that position until she was ready suncated, and her throat almost cut through by the sharp et'..:t of the twb.. The prisoner attempted to justify his furious rreati:ent of the poor woman, by alleging that he found her intoxi creed when be came home; but this was proved to be fake. ;11r. CONANT said, that a more diabolical or savage assault he had never heard of, and he hoped that the parish would nut lose si,;lit of the prisoner until they made an example of hint. !le was then ordered to hod bail on two assaults—one on his wife, and eu a young woman who was assisting her, wham the rtitiirn knocked down three times; and to give forty-eight hours notice of bail. Thursday, a steam-boat, purchased for the King of DErotAßK,and most splendidly decorated and furnished, called fro the River fur Copenhagen, in which his Ma jesty and family are to embark, to visit Jutland anal other places, in the coure of the summer. It is manned by British .e.inien, with a Captain of the Danidt Navy, aid accompanied by 3lt.titt.t.hspie, a Scotch E3gineer, to superintend the machinery. REMOVAL OF A WINDMILL.— A novel sight was observed at Chelmsford on Tue.day, in the removal of the body of a windmill and its contents, entire, from the place where it had been erected many years, upon a scite near the brewery of Messrs. Woodcock, Hodges, and Wells. The mill was first divested of its sails and cap, the body raised from the foundation by a lofty triangle, pullies, and blocks, and when sufficiently elevated, a strong four-wheeled timber carriage drawn under, upon which it was let down; the carriage and its lofty burthen were then gradually removed, the wheels being properly blocked to prevent too sudden a pressure down a short declivity into the road, whence it was conveyed without any accident in the most majes tic manner, to the astonishment and admiration or a vast number of spectators, and safely deposited by the same means upon another foundation on a scite pre pared for its reception. At the battle of 'Trafalgar, a seaman of the Conqueror, upon losing a leg, and going below to have it ampu tated, observed to the Purser, " Ah, Mr. Beattie, I shalt live now half as cheap again as I did before; one pair of stockings will serve me just twice as long."—A Sardinian pointer, belonging to an Officer of the same ship, in clearing for action, had been hastily thrown out of the main deck ports, and lodged upon the rig ging of the swinging boom on the side engaged, where he remained unhurt during the battle. This created so strong an affection for it in the ship's company, that they requested to have it, and the dog sras afterwards turned over, with his shipmates to the Barham; the dog was alive in 1820. iRELAAi DUBLIN, MAY 12. Sunday night, at eleven o'clock, a band of coot determined villains, deliberately marched from their fastnesses in the vicinity of the In akes of Ballinascorney; and aware that there were only one peace•officer and three patrol stationed near Mr. Trant's c.tate, proceeded to level a house on that Gentleman's land. They had previously demolished three Louses on the spot ; :tie noise created by the falling of the walls alarmed peace. officer Murray, who, with his three r olicemen :those. mentioned, advanced, and errdeted the ban-litti, f t ,. such they may. be termed, to desist. The Captain of the Rockites systematically commanded a inovenic o .., and by a military tour, the Police were surrounde.l thirty men, as well armed as regular troops. 'E x ,• presented their pieces in concert, and the commas,;,_ ordering the ranks to open, directed the out-nuntbered police to retire, if they valued their lives—this they were obliged to do.. The house was demolished—not one stone was left in its place; the marauders quietly wheeled ofF, and retired in order out of reach. The police hovered about for some time in expectation of catching some of them when separating from the main body, but in this they were disappointed by the appa. rent military tact of the insurgents. This is an alarm. ing and mysterious circumstance indeed; doubtles , , the lot ce of the police will be materially strengthened in that lawless vicinity. LIMERICK, MA Y B.—Last night, a house, near Bally. cahane, in this county, the propel ty of Mr. Kearney, of t i i i ; c i t y, was bu t ned, together with the furniture and a quantity of potatoes ; the perpetrators, who were armed, violently assaulted the c;:retaker and fired sever a l shots.

SnAKSPEARE.—The original price of the folio (1625) of our immortal Bard's Plays was 11. The highest price it has ever yet brought at our book sales is 1121. is. hich the late Mr. Boswell paid for the copy that was Mr. Kenthle's. This book, it is true, had been rendered extremely beautiful, and had, in its various stages, cost Mr. Kemble 'really three times that sum. It had been purified from all stains by the usual chemical process; it had been inlaid into a royal paper, and superbly bound, at fiist in three volumes, but finally compressed into one. Thus sumptuously equipped, it was deposited in a neat ca , r, with a lock and key, and remains the most pre cious copy of that folio. MULL Thursday, in Park -street.
