Mr. SCARLET? soon after got up and said—On the part of the defendant, 1 lament as atuCh is any Pition can the accident which has befallen the plaintiff: We are desis ous of making compensation. and consent to a verdict for the plaintiff, with £2OO damages. THS gm v. morrow. sorroitssAw, AND WAISIIIIIONT. The defendants, who are the Mt, second, and third mates of the Bridgewater East Indiaman, were injlitted for an assault aad battery on Woolf Cohen, by throwing him over the ship's side. • The prosecutor, Woolf Cabin, stated that he was a xhiss.cdtter, keeping a lodging-house fur seamen- in (travel-fence. On the arrival of the Bridgewater East Indianian in the river, in May last, he went on board to speak to a young man named Waters. So soon as he g ot on board, the chief mate, Joseph Stanton, called his first and second Mates, and said " there is a b—dy Jew, thaw him overboard—it is no harm to kilt a Jew." —They accordingly threw him from the ship's side, a, height of nearly twenty feet, and he fell into.a boat. He vas bruised in a shocking manner, and had never been well Once. This evidence was supported by three women, who were on board the Indianian. Mr'. Oaooonam, on the part of the three Officers, called .several respectable witnesses, who proved that the prosecutor had been ordered not to come on board, and forcing his way on the deck, the chief Officer, as sisted by the other defendants, pushed him to the gang way, *here they put the min-rope in his hand, and made him descend to his boat. All the witnesses for t he defence stated that he was not thrown down. The Jury acquitted all the defendants. COURT OF COMMON ,PLEAS, DECEMBER 'go STEED D. HENLEY. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, an spa thecary, residing in Bedford -street, Bedford-square,' against the defendant; a Lady, residing with her mother ka Charlton-street, Somers Town, to recover the sum of 111.116. 6d. for medicines supplied to the defendant. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE observed, that probably the defendant had not recovered, and that she therefore thought the plaintiff was not entitled to recover. Mr. Serjeant PELL said that the defendant had reco vered, and he hoped the plaintiff would recover also. James Turner, shopboy in the service of the plaintiff, stated that he went with medicines to Miss Henley's mother's house, and that her mother received the medi cines from him; one day,Miss Henley took the medicines herself; her mother was on that occasion from home ; he repeatedly saw Miss Henley afterwards at the house of the plaintiff, in Bedford -street, where she received medicines herself and took them away ; he met her sub sequently in Bedford -street, when she said that she would settle the plaintiff's bill when she settled with her attorney; witness often called on the defendant for pay ment, but never received any money; be also called for ir phials, some of which were four ounce phials, but b did not know what medicines they contained ; Miss Henley told witness that she had been ill of a fever and a determination of blood to the head. Mr. Serjeant WILDS, for the defendant, called the attention, of the Learned Counsel for the plaintiff to the Act of Parliament of 55 Geo. 111. c. 194, s. 21. for the regulation of the practice of apothecaries. Mr. Serjeant Pau. said, " Oh! certainly; my Learned Friend wishes me to prove that the piaindff practised as an apothecary before the pawns of the Act." The Doan Come Jawrsem—That was in 1815. Mr. Serjeant PELL said, the Act was dated the Ist of August, 1815. He then called a witness, who deposed that the plaintiff practised as an apothecary, in 1813, and attended the witoess'sfamily. On cross.examinaaien the witness said that plainsif attended his family as a friend. A diploma from Surgeons -Hall was put in. Mr. Serjeant WILDS objected that there was nn proof of the plaintiff having regularly practised before 1815 ; he had attended the family of the last witness merely as a friend, and that was no evidence of regular practice according to the meaning of the Act of Parliament, which was explicit and imperative. Mr. Serjeant PILL then called other witnesses, but they did not answer, and they were consequently called upon their subpseuas. The Logo Cur Jusvms thought there was no evidence to go to a Jury. Mr. Seljeant Pau. then wished to recover the value of the phials. ThrLoRD CHIEI JUSTICZ thought that the plaintiff could net recover the value of the phials, because the Act of Parliament did not allow him to practise as an apothecary, or to sell medicines without being regularly qualified. His Lordship thought the plaintiff could not recover in a Court of Justice for doing that which the law did not allow him to do. The Plaintiff was then nonsaited. HORSE DEALING—WALLACE V. WOODGATE, Mr. STEERS opened the pleadings, and stated that it was this an action of trover to recover the value of three horses,the property of the plaintiff illegally detained from him. The defendant pleaded the general issue. Mr. Serjeant VAIJOHAN stated the plaintiff's case, who was, he said, an Officer k his Majesty's Service, and, being in want of horses, bought three of the de fendant, in the month of May last, for the sum of 150/. and for which the defendant agreed to take the plaintiff's two acceptances for 751. each ; previously to the matu rity of the bills, however, the defendant, for some rea son or other, by a stratagem got possession of two of the horses, and refused to give them up to the plaintiff; and it was to recover them that the present action was brought. He could not anticipate the defence, but should proceed to call his witnesses.—Several witness► were examined in support of the case. , Mr. Serjeant TADDY addressed the Jury for the de fendant. His Learned Friend had also said that the ()ills given by the plaintiff for the defendant's horses were only suspected to be bad. Unfortunately, how. ever, the defendant had had the very beat proof of their being worth nothing, for they were still on his hands unpaid, and the plaintiff Wallace is in the King's Bench; !or which reason the defendant was perfectly justifiable in d ec l ar i ng th a t h e h a d be e n swindled out of his horses. It would be proved that at the period of the agreement, Wallace had not the means in possession, or prospect of, paring for the horses. From the result of other trans actions with him, the defendant Woodgate saw there was no likelihood that he should ever be paid for his , I,orses, and therefore he went to the plaintiff, accom panied by a friend named Elmore, who would prove , :hit Wallace had agreed that the horses should remain in the defendant's possession until paid for. The Learned Serjeant then called several witnesses for the defence. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN replied. The Cuter JUSTICE then proceeded to charge the Jury, and said, that it was an action of trover brought by a person calling himself" Captain Wallace." Thrlavr on the subject was clear and well defined—if a penei should sell goods, for which he took a bill un - ~. , , Li 11.• • •/0" „ ; • ~•••• / , T. - . , • , - • 3r7" 1 7-7 771 "'"." ' der the usual circumstances and should the.'bill be aft terwards dishonooricl, his yorriperty in the *goods ha 4 passed away, and he had . no right to recover anything but their ptice‘s.the amount of the bill. But if the pet son making-the purchase knew that he should not be `able to pay the hill which he was. going to 'give for them, and that consequently it. was not of any value, the property in the goods had not changed, and the pro prietor had a right to seize them whilein the possession of such purchaser. It was true that although the owner of a horse could not remove him from the sta - - bles of an innkeeper until the expense incurred for his keep should be paid, yet the same law did not apply to the keepers of livery stables, unless by special agreement., by which agreement a lien might be created, and it was 'for the Jury to say had not such a lien been created for the keep of the horses in the present instance? If they should think that a lien was created, and that the de-, fendant had got fraudulent possession'of the horses, such possession would not defeat the plaintiff's lien. In the present case, the horses had not been out of . the possession of Wallace. who had undoubtedly possessed himself of them by an abominable fraud. If the Jury should be of the same • opinion, they would find for the defendant—if on the contrary, their verdict mist be for the plaintiff.—The Jury, without a moment's hesitation, found a verdict for the defendant. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, DECEMBER 2. THE KING D. HARTWELL. This was an information filed by the ATTORNEY-, Gariznar.. against the defendant, for the recovery of penalties due on account of his having made alterations in the stamp which is placed on Government paper. It appeared that a quantity of paper had been sold by the defendant, and that the stamp bore the mark of 741bs. while it contained no more than 241bs. Suspicion arising that the defendant had intended to defraud, an appli cation was made to the . Stamp Office, and it was ascer tained that the stamp had been issued only for 241bs. a fraud being committed on the Revenue. Mr. Jeavrs, for the defence, contended that the mis take might have been made by the clerk of the Stamp Office, or by some person in the employ of the defend ant, and that there was no evidence to bring home the fraud to him. The Socurrou-GzaaaAr. replied, and the - Jory returned a verdict for the Crown. SECONDARIES' OFFICE, DECEMBER 2. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY.--PLUNKITT U. BUCHANAN. This was a writ upon a capias al legatum, to inquire what property was possessed by Lieutenant-Colonel Buchanan, a retired Officer in the East India Com pany's service? in order that the Sheriffs of London might seize upon it, for the benefit of the plaintiff. The real defendants in the case were the " Company of Mer chants trading to the East Indies." The amount claimed was very considerable. Several Gentlemen connected with the highest de partments of the establishment were present, besides those who were subpoenaed to attend. Mr. Jones stated, that this was a writ issued at the suit of Mrs. Plunkett, for the amount of the value of goods supplied to Lieutenant-Colonel Buchanan, who had some time ago been outlawed, after certain pro- ceedings had been instituted against him. In a former proceeding his nephew, Mr. Walter Buchanan, had been defendant, and upon that Gentleman it would be necessary to call, in order to prove the amount of pro perty to which the Lieutenant-Colonel bad claim. The stock to which the plaintiff, as creditor of the Colonel, laid claim, amounted to nearly 40001. besides which there were the allowance of the Colonel by the East India Company, as an Officer, from the year 1821, and other property, an accurate knowledge of which the Company would, no doubt, most willingly communicate. Mr. Walter Buchanan, examined by Mr. BOMPAL— Had received from the East India Company the sum of 3651. per annum for the Lieutenant-Colonel, being his allowance as a retired Officer. Witness accounted for this allowance, up 'to the year 1821, to the Crown. He also received for him the sum of 1041. 12s. 6d.every half year up to the year 1821. The latter sum had been regularly remitted from India, in bills enclosed in letters directed to the Lieutenant-Colonel, which witness opened by virtue of a power of attorney, and he knew from the Colonel that this was the interest of money of his in India, in the hands of the East India Company. Witness had one of those bills. It was protested, and been accepted by Mr. Dart, the Secretary to the Com pany. Had witness received the amount, it should cer tainly have been applied to the Lieut.-Colonel's benefit. It was here stated by the Counsel for the plaintiff, that the bill had been protested because the Lieutenant- Colonel had been outlawed. The SECONDARY said, that there was not enough upon the face of the bill to charge the East India Company with the principal. Witness continued—The 3651. a-year was not re ceived by any one to his knowledge since the year 1821. He had not applied for it from that time, and he did not know whether the Lieutenant-Colonel was still on pay as a retired Officer. Mr. Dart, the Secretary was then called, but he re ferred the Counsel for information to the Auditor. 1 , t Mr. Melville, the Assistant Auditor of the East India Company, stated that Lieutenant-Colonel Buchanan was still a retired Officer on full pay, 11. a-clay. Could not say whether Buchanan bad property in the Six per Cent. India Loans. Upon looking at the protested bill, he said it implied ►hat at the date of it, Buchanan had property in the Six 'per Cent. India Loan, yielding 1041. 12s. 6d. every half year. The date was December, 1820. The exchange was at this period different from what it then was. The Lieutenant-Colonel's stock was what was called Bombay stock. Mr. Botteas said, that upon calculating, he found that the amount of property producing that dividend was 3,4871. 10s. He claimed that amount in the hands of the East India Company, of which the Bombay Com pany was a branch. Mr. POLLOCK said, the question was, whether Bom bay Stock was seizable in this country ? Mr. Melville continued.—The bill was drawn by the Bombay Government upon the East India Company here. Tfie pay had not bean issued since the year 1821, because it was never issued without' the authority of the Directors. Mr. Joins contended, that the interest being payable in England, the principal was also payable here, and the East India Company were responsible for the debts of the Bombay Company, as part of their establishment. The SECONDARY said, that if the property was found in England, these would be no difficulty in the matter, but the funds must be in the power of the Sheriff of London. There was no proof that this was a debt upon the part of the East India Company. Mr. Latvford, Solicitor to the East India Company, stated, as an micas caria, that the principal of a debt r 3""•-• • • Painpr—ir7gr , .. , ' " , of the Company *at paid, aecordiog to the contract, either in India br itt England. • Mr. Melville, upon being called agate, said, that he could ascertain from the books of the Compenrjiwhe ther the principal was payable here or not. Thbra' books were in his possessioo, but he had not tbspasbo rity of the Directors to bring them forward. • Mr. Bosepa observed, that it was very, estraordinary, that the Directors should withtfold the means of infor mation, and asked Mr. Melville, whether in his notice to attend; e was not called upon to produce all books, documents, &c. relative to the case? Mr. Melville, admitted that he had been called upon to , produce the books, and said that application had been made to the Directors upon the subject, but he was not permitted to bring them forward. Mr. Walter Buchanan again called.—The Lieutenant- Colonel's stock had been transferred to witness in India, and he received 2501. interest, which he paid away. He had also received the acceptance which had not been paid. Other officers in the service of the East India Co mpany were then called, and asked whether they had brought any books or documents to clear away the ob scurity attending the case? but they all replied that they had brought nothing that was required of them. . The proof as to the principal having failed, the Counsel for the plaintiff then went for the Lieutenant- Colonel's pay, the arrears of which amounted to up wards of 1,0001. Mr. BOMPAS contended that it was claimable by Buchanan, and of course seizable by the Silvia . ; and called upon the officers of the East India Company to produce the documents on the subject of which they had received notice in their subpoenas. They all replied that they had no documents to produce. The SECONDARY said he must have some proof that the pay was a matter of right, and not a mere gratuity, before he could seize upon the arrears. Mr. Joszs and Mr. BOUPAS said it was inexplicable conduct upon the part of the Company to refuse to give facilities. In this case everything which ought to have been done had been omittei or refused. The SECONDARY said, that if the pay was not de mandable upon the part of the Lieutenant-Colonel, it was not demandable upon the part of the Crown, which claimed under the defendant. Mr. Bosuns.—We have called upon the officers of the Company, who are qualified to prove it, and refuse. Buchanan's claim is shewn by his service. Mr. Melville here observed, that the pay was claim able under what were called military regulations. Mr. BOMPAS then called upon him to state the nature of the regulations, and whispered to a person to run to slaw stationer's and procure a copy ; this was done in an instant ; the copy was brought, the regulations read, and admitted to be conclusive in favour of the claim, which was established after 25 years service. The SECONDARY, in addressing the Jury, said, that although he considered the East India Company de fendants in this case, be certainly could not guess why they had withheld the information which it was in their power to give, and which they had been regularly called upon to produce. It was extremely unlike the usual conduct of the Company. He then told the Jury, that they were to find to the amount of 1,1991.125. 6d. which included the arrears of pay due by the Company. " The Jury accordingly found to that amount. 1 OLD BAILEY, DCCEMBER 2. When the Jury were about to be called, ad aged man, of a severe formal aspect, begged to address the Bench. He said he had been summoned to attend on the Jury, and desired to put the Codit in possession - of the rea sons whichinduced him to wish to decline the duty. Mr. Serjeant AIIABIN-..What is the impediment to your serving, are you labouring under any infirmity? Applicant—l have some conscientious—l mean scriptural objec tions, to serving on the Jury. Mr. Serjeant Aaaani—l cannot sit here to listen to speeches. If there is any reasonable cause why you should be exempted from attending the Jury, ton will get the benefit of it, but you must teU us what it is. Applicant—l have scriptural reasons for wishing to decline the duty—at least I have some doubts which I wish to have solved. The Scripture says, " Every man must be satisfied of the hope and reason that is within him." I want, therefore, to know, on scrip tural grounds, the nature of this her business? The Coua informed him, that it was simply this—to hear the evidence with attention, and return a conscientious verdict. Applicant—Oh, but I am very deaf! The Loan Mayne wished to know how long he had been deaf, as his hearing appeared to be very good at present? The applicant said, that I,e had been so seven yeses, and declared he did not hear a sentence of the commission which the Clerk of the Arraigns had just read i indeed, he never heard anything which he did not comprehend ! I sbaU (said he) raise a doubt upon every puint—( Loud laughter). The Comte put it to hi coul d not whether he could swear that be not conscientiously perfo r his duty ?—No direct reply was given, but the Gentleman retur ed to his polemical reasoning, when he was ordered to stand down. The COURT seemed to think that he was a most un reasonable man, rend completed the panel without him ; and the scrupulous Gentleman retired, apparently un moved at the risibility he had excited. James Haley was then put to the bar, charged with maliciously setting on fire the premises which he occu pied in Argyll-place, on the night of the 31st of Octo ber. The case occupied a considerable portion of the day. The circumstances have been so recently and so fully detailed in the police reports, that we refrain from repeating them here, particularly as they are of a very uninteresting description, and varying little from the history of cases of arson. The evidence for the prosecution having been gone through, the prisoner called Redmond, the husband of a witness for the prosecu tion, who stated that he had known him for ten or twelve years; that his children had been in the habit of playing at his house for weeks together, and that on the Sunday night, an elder child had come for two others who were there, but his wife objected to their re turning home, as she stated that she would take them home herself next day. With respect to the wearing apparel, which the prisoner stated had been burnt, the witness said that the prisoner's - wile had been in the habit of dressing well, and that he had seen her wear silk gowns. The prisoner's daughter was also called, and she stated that on the night of the fire they were taken so much by surprise, that they were obliged to take shelter for a considerable time in the watchman's box, in a state little better than that of nudity. She also spoke to 951. having been in the trunk, and to the wearing ap parel having been in the house. Two other witnesses, who were neighbours of the prisoner, gave him an excellent character for honesty and industry. The Jury expressed a wish, to retire, and after being absent half an hour, returned into Court, when they pronounced a verdict of not Guilty.—The case lasted from ten in the morning till nine at night. ti NEV COURT. • Edmund Norman, aged 15, was kidieled for stealing a handkerchief from the person of Joseph Mee, on the .30th of November. • . • . , 1 %. • • • - . • . ;\-- • • ••, • - t .

" MECHANICS` INSTITUTION, Yesterday, the first stone of the Mechanics Institue tion Lecture-room was laid by Dr. Bia kbeck, and the other Officers of the Society. A plain circular vase uf glass, containing the names of the Founders of the insti tution the books of the Laws, the 10th number of the Mechanics' Magazine, Containing an account of the first proceedings of the Institution, and a portrait of Dr. Birkbeck enclosed in it, were deposited in the centre. It contained the following inscription: This Stone, the first of the liteture , roomi Was laid on the Qd of December, 1824, Being the first Anniversary of the Establishment or TIM LONDON MECHANICS' INSTITUTION; Gomm baclug, M.D:President, • In the presence of the several Officers of the Institutioni At the conclusion of the ceremony. Dr. litartatcre came forward and addressed the meeting. The Company then adjourned to the Crown and An• chor Tavern to dinner, Dr. BIRKBECK in the Chair. Upwards of 200 sat down to dinner, amorg 0 horn were Alderman Wood, Mr. Brougham, and Mr. Hume. After the cloth was removed, Dr. BIRYBECK rose to propose "the health of his MAJESTY " —(Applause.)— There was an additional reason for his doing so on the present occasion, for they would recollect that a Meet- ing had been held in the course of the present year, for the purpose of doing honour to the memory of a man, who had started in life as a mechan;c, and afterwards became one of the most distinguished benefactors of his country. At that Meeting, to record the memory of a man of humble origin, splendid progress, and glorious conclusion, the first Minister of the Crown attended. and declared that he had his Majesty's commands to hope that the Royal name would stand at the head of the subscribers' list to Mr. Watt's monument. Thus did the Monarch of the greatest nation upon earth do ho mage to the majesty of genius. The King's health was then drank with loud applause. The other usual toasts beivig gone through, The CHAIRMAN proposed "Prosperity to the London Mechanics Institution." Mr. BROUGHAM nest rose to address the meeting. and was received with great applause. He commented at length on the value of the Mechanics Institution, and the services such establishments were calcul.ted to render the country. After some other toasts had been gone through, Dr. BIRKBECIC next proposed " the health: of Messrs. Robertson and Hodgskin, the Editors of the Mechanics' Magazine," a publication which first suggested, and had been mainly instrumental in advancing the objects of .the Mechanics' Institution —(Cheers.) Mr. HODOSKUI, in the absence of Mr. Robertson, re turned thanks in a seat speech, 'in the course of which he corrected an error into which the Edinburgh Review had fallen, in attributing to Dr. Bilkbeck the merit of having founded the London Mechanics' Institution.- 4, The fact was," said Mr. Hodgskin, ,‘ that the idea of such an Institution first occurred to Mr. Robertson, with whom Mr. Hodgskin was then ass , )ciated ir, con. ducting that work, that he mentioned tte ik:ea to Mr.. Hodgskin, that they talked it over, and that he (Mr . Hodgskin) drew up the paper, which, witlr some altera• tions by Mr. Robertson, was published, proposing the formation of a Mechanics Institution. They had cer tainly caught the idea from the Institution at Glasgow, and from the school of Arts at Edinburgh; but at the time the Paper was published, neither of them knew than Dr. Birkbeck was alive, and knew not thatite was in London." Several other toasts were drank, and at 10 o'clock the President left the Chair. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING-ROOM, TATTERSALL'S, DEC. V.
