1_ TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF THE .110. N. COMP.4I:rS SHIP KENT, CAPT. CM, lir FIRE, IN THE BAY OF BISCAY, WITH TROOPS ON BOARD• The following is a copy of a Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Falmouth, dated 4th instant : 4 , Put back the Cambria, Cook, for Vera Cruz, hay ing on board 547 passengers, Officers, seamen, soldiers, women, and children, rescued by her from the Hon. Co,npany's ship Kent, Captain Cobb, which unfortu nately took fire on the Ist inst. in 1at.47 deg. 30 min.N. long. 9 deg. 45 min. W. on her passage to Bengal and China. The Kent, soon after the removal of the above to the Cambria, blew up, and from the returns made since, 90 must have perished in her, or were drowned in getting into the boats, &c. of whom 64 were soldiers, one woman, 21 children, one seaman, and three marine boys. The Purser set off by the mail, yesterday, for the India House. We are happy to state that the inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood have contributed everything in their power, by clothing and money, to the necessi ties of the poor creatures, who saved nothing more than they stood up in, and many, from having been taken out of their beds, were destitute of any covering whatever. The Cambria is only 200 tons burthen, aid had a cargo on board, besides nearly 50 persons (miners and crew), . . . which, added to the people saved from the Kent, made a total of about 600 persons, huddled together for nearly three days. Captain Conk did everything in his power to make them as comfortable as the circumscribed limits of his vessel would allow, particularly the women and children, and by carrying a press of sail, fortu nately reached this port just as a strong North wind set in." The following Is a list of passengers, troops, women, and chil dren, on board the late Hon.

FURTHER PARTICULARS. This vessel, which sailed from the Downs about a fort night ago, was making her way in the Bay of Biscay on the morning of Tuesday the Ist inst. across the heavy swell common in that stormy entrance to the Atlantic, when her progress was arrested by a fatal accident, in latitude about 47 deg. 50 min. and long. 11 deg. 40 min. An officer who was sent into the hold to see whether the rolling of the vessel had disturbed the stowage, perceiving that a cask of spirits had burst hom its lashings, gave the lamp be had in his hand to a seaman to hold while he should replace the cask. Unfortunately, in the continued rolling of the vessel the man let the lamp fall near the spirits, to which it set fire in a moment. The flames spread ; attempts were made to smother them by wetted blankets and ham snockc, but all was in vain, and they soon assumed an aspect so tremendous, as to shew that it would be ins. possible ti subdue them. At this moment of despair, the man at the mast head exclaimed that a sail was in sight; guns were fired, and a signal of distress hoisted. The gale, however, was so heavy, that it was for some time doubtful whether the strange vessel perceived the signals or was likely to turn aside from her course; but this painful suspense was soon removed by her approach. The boats of the Kent were now got out and placed, not alongside, on account of the flames and the danger of staving the boats, but a-head and a-stern. Into the latter many gr t out from the cabin windows, but the chief part were let down from the bowsprit into the boat a-head, the men sliding doWn by a rope, while the soldiers wives were lowered into the boat three together. The fire had burst out about ten o'clock, and about twelve the signal of distress had been perceived by the strange sail, which proved to be the Cambria, Cook, outward-bound to Mexico, with a number of mining workmen and a cargo of mining machinery. It was at two o'clock that the Cambria received the first boat load of passengers, consisting chiefly of Ladies and children, half clothed, and pale with fright and fatigue. The whole afternoon was passed in exertions on board the one vessel in sending off the sufferers, and in the other in receiving them. The Cambria had amongst her passengers several stout workmen, who took their sta tien at the ship's side, and were indefatigable in hoisting the poor sufferers on board, so that, out of 642 persons in the Kent, no less than 557 were safe in the Cambria before midnight. The remainder (85 in number) were lost, chiefly in getting out and in of the boats, the swell 4 the sea being very great all the time. The Captain of the Kent was the last man to leave her. She blew up a few minutes before two on Wednesday morning. It may naturally be asked how the vessel could keep so long together amid so destructive a conflagration? She could not have kept together two hours, had not the Officers, to avoid one danger encountered another, by opening the ports and letting in the water, when she , shipped such heavy seas as to become water-logged, which of course prevented the burning downwards. Tile Cambria, a vessel of little more than two hun dred tons, was previously sufficiently filled, having goods in her hold and above fifty persons in passengers and ship's company . How great then must have been the pressure and confusion caused by an influx which carried tire total on board to more than six hundred. 'lhe progress of the fire in the Kent had been so rapid as to prevent the sufferers from saving any clothes ex ctta what were on their persons, and both officers and soldiers were thus ill prepared to encounter the wet and the cold of the deck. The cabin and the tween decks (the space for the steerage passengers) were thus crowded beyond measure, and most fortunate it was that the wind continued favourable for the return of the Cambria to an English port. She reached Falmouth in fo • rty-eygh..t hours after quitting the wreck, and landed her unfortunate inmates, many of them half I clothed, on Friday morning. • rnePnotsom SAvan.-51st Regim e nt ;21 officers, 280 men, 46 WO , and St children ; ship's company, 140; passengers, 19.

ADDITIONAL PARTICULAR& PROM PHI ROYAL CORNWALL °MLITT& FALMOUTH, MARCH 4.—The brig Cambria, Captain Cook, which sailed from Falmouth on the 24th ult. with miners, for Vera Cruz, returned to this port on Friday,having on board 547troops,sailors,etc.skved from the late Hon. Company's ship Kent, Captain Cobb, which unfortunately took fire on the Ist inst. lat 47 deg. SO min. long. 9 deg. 45 min. on her voyage to China. The Kent, soon after the removal of the above, blew up, with ninety person s on b oar d, o f w h om s i xt y-four were soldiers, one woman, twenty-one children, one seaman, and three marine boys. We have not time to detail the particulars, but such a scene of distress was never equalled here, as was presented when the unfortunate persons landed; the greater part of whom had scarcely a rag to cover themselves. The greatest praise is due to Captain Cook for his humanity, and to our countrymen (the miners) for their conduct on this me lancholy occasion, and to whose exertions the greater part of the number saved is attributed. A soldier's wife was safely delivered of a boy, about two houi - s after she was removed from the Kent to the Cambria. We are happy to state, the inhabitants are attending to the wants of theYadies, and are making the whole of the unfortunates as comfortable as is possible in their trying situations. The Kent was a 1400 ton ship, and sailed from the Downs about the 18th February. _ _ Another Correspondent adds, that the scene at Fal mouth Quay was affecting beyond all description— women lamenting the loss of their husbands and chil dren, men of their wives, and children of their parents, and all were in a state of nakedness. The Governor of Pendennis Castle, with prompt humanity, ordered a quantity of blankets to be sent from the stores; and the unfortunates were brought on shore in the boats of the Astrea frigate, by order of Captain King. They rr, ere then conducted to the different public-houses, offices, &c. where every possible care was taken of them. The conduct of all classes of the inhabitants of this hospitable town was most praiseworthy, some even taking off their shoes and stockings to give to the distressed females. THE ARMY.

LAW REPOlt7t COURT OP CHANCERY, MARCH L JOINT STOCK COMPANY. vANAANDAU V. PETER MOORE, ESQ. ANb aturrunt. This was a motion by Mr., HEALD, on the part of Mr. Vansandau, a Solicitor in the City, against Mr. Peter Moore, the Chairman of a Society 9r lifititution, called the British Annuity Company, and Mr. Mitchell, the Secretary, to ,prevent them from declaring the plaintiff's shares forfeited, in the event of his not pay ing up certain instalments on his subscription ; and also to prevent the execution of a deed of settlement from being executed by the Directors and Subscribers, on the ground that it contained regulations contrary to the terms of the original prospectus. The plaintiff bad become the purchaser of forty shares upon the terms held out to the Public in an advertisement; and consi dering-that the defendants had departed from their original contract with the Public and with himself, by the regulations they had adopted, and particularly by appointing Directors, with fixed salaries to a large amount, and by making demands for the payment of instalments injurious to the interests of the general body, and calculated to give advantages to the larger capi talists, had written a letter in the first instance to the Directors, declaring his dissent from their proceedings; and not meeting with the redress to which he was en titled, had filed his bill to compel them to do him jus tice—to this bill there was a general demurrer, for want of equity and proper parties. Mr. SUDDEN was heard in support of the demurrer. He stated, that the object of Mr. Vansandau was to im pede the progress of this Institution, until such time as arrangements should he made that met his approbation. He had purchased forty shares, at the rate of 501. per share. The Society was to consist of 60,000 subscribers for 501. shares, thus constituting a capital of three mil lions. The plaintiff having become the purchaser of 40 shares, upon which he had advanced a subscription of W. each, was disappointed at finding that this Society was not like many of the bubbles of the present day, calculated merely to enable the original subscribers to sell their shares at the prices advanced; but on the contrary, that the object of its promoters was, that it should become an effective institution, to be carried on for the benefit of the Public, and with that view to have the whole of the capital paid in. It had never, he said, entered into the plaintiff's imagination that this was to become a /tone fide Society. The provisions adopted by the Directors had destroyed his power of selling his shares, and interposed bars to his obtaining the advan• tages he had speculated upon. The Learned Counsel inferred that the plaintiff had no right to come into a Court of Equity, and proceeded to reason, upon legal principles,that the demurrer applied to the whole of the plaintiff's Lill, and precluded him from obtaining the relief to which he alleged he was entitled. Mr. HEALD, on the other hand, contended, that the Directors having assumed to themselves the power of making regulations which were contrary to their pro spectus, were liable to be controuled by the plaintiffor any subscriber who disapproved of their arrangements. The LORD CHANCELLOR wished, whenever cases of this sort were argued before him, they should be con sidered upon the principles the Court applied to part nerships ; whatever were the grand names prefixed to such Societies, they were nothing more than mere partnerships; and if in the dealings of partnerships there were rules or orders entered into which the majo rity had no right to make, could any one partner come into this Court and desire such rules or orders to be set right ? Was the Court of Chancery to b. continually called upon to direct and regulate the concerns of ,co. partnership ? The Court assumed no jurisdiction to regulate the concerns of a partnership from day to day. If there was an agreement in a society such as this was, that the Directors should have a discretion to extend their capital, the Court would understand it to mean a sound discretion ; but would the Court hold jurisdiction to determine whether the extension was too great or too little ? Could it be liable to be called upon so to exercise its jurisdiction every six weeks? He was aware that this as well as many other institutions might be bene ficial to the public ; the man must be out of his senses who would. assert that such Societies might not be use ful as well as detrimental; but if these Who entered into them did not choose to take upon themselves a corpo rate character, either by Charter or Act of Parliament, it was a material consideration for them, let their object be as useful as it might be, bow they were to provide remedies among themselves for some against the body at large, or for the body at large against some of them, it being a clear point that no Court of Equity could manage a partnership from time to time ? He begged leave to say publicly, not with a view of ember- i rassing useful societies of this nature, for there were many that were highly useful, but because he con ceived it to be of the highest importance that those who engaged in them should take care so to regulate their concerns by the deeds or instruments they signed, that they provided sufficient remedies one against ano cher. His Lordship observed that in all the old Acts of Parliament with reference to this subject, instead of a general recital, whereas many persons have agreed so land so, Parliament used to insist on having the names of all the persons concerned inserted in the preamble, thus making the Act of Parliament itself a memorial of the persons who were liable in the event of any indi vidual being injured by the regulations of the Directors, or the body at large ; but now it was the practice not to introduce the names of any persons at all into the Acts of Parliament. If the Directors of such an Institu don made allowances for themselves to which they were not entitled, a bill in equity could not prevent them; the partnership might be dissolved, and upon a bill calling upon them to account, improper allowances might be struck out; but upon a bill such as the pre sent one was, the Court could not prevent them from making what allowance to themselves they pleased. His Lordship's observations branched out into a variety of other matters, after which Mr. KNIGHT rose to follow on the same side with Mr. HEALD. The LORD CHANCELLOR interrupted him, desiring that before the case proceeded further, he would supply him with all the cases which had any reference to this question. A case of a similar nature had been be lore him in the long vacation ; he alluded to the case of Waterseld V. Irving ; with respect to which he had; made many remarks in writing ; the reason that had in- 1 fluenced him in taking so much pains with regard to that case, and now influenced him upon the present or* casior. was, that there was no man with the knowledge of the law of this country, and he spoke of the common law in equity, who must not foresee that chem. stancei would be daily arising, with respect to which it was of the geartest interest to the vast body of the com inanity, that the doctrine to be laid down by this Court should be clearly right ; that the Court should surround the case in every view in which it could be looked at; for the purpose of being right in the first inst4ncet By that means, he was persuaded . many suits and much litigation would be prevented. He therefore hoped he was not doing wrong in desiring that this case might stand over, to afford Mr. Knight an opportunity of laying before him all the cases that had any bearing upon the subjects The arrangements made for Mon day would not permit him to hear it further on that day, but he desired it might be peremptorily fixed to proceed on Wednesday. CARLISLE ASSIZES, MARCH 4. ROBINSON V. SMARMS. This was an action brought to recover the sum of g 5/. deposited in the defendant's hands as a stake-holder. It appeared that the plaintif and a Mr. Gilkerson were extremely Maims abbut the merits of two horses thnt were to run for a silver cup, annually given by Lold Lonsdale. Each of them anxious for his favomite, they wagered on the event—the plaintiff, that Queen Ma 6 would beat the Maid of the Mill. As it turned out, neither were to be gratified; for in their eagerness to lay wagers they forget there was another horse, Young Skeffington, to run, who was able, and did win the cop. It was therefore quite clear, that as neither of the betting panics were successful in their nomina tion, as their favourites did net win, so neither could have lost ; and the stake-holder could have no right to retain the money. A minute of the wager, signed by the parties, was tendered in evidence, it was as follows I—. " Mr. Oilkerscm beats Mr. Robinson thirty poincis to twenty, that the Maide of the Mill beats Queene Mamp at Carlisle, 1824, for the silver cup, 1824. One tinny posted by each with W. Mearns.

Mr. AGLIONBY submitted to the Court, on the au thority of the case of , 4 Egerton v. Furzeman," (not reported) but recently decided by Lord Chief Justice Abbott, that an action of this kind could not be main tained, that by the 13th Gee. 11. cap. 19, no race could be considered legal where the sum run for was under 501. and that all bets made on such races must be veld. Mr. Justice HOLAOYD stated his opinion, that the party is entitled to recover his money from a stakeholder. Several witnesses were examined, and the Jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 251. costs 40s. SURREY SESSIONS, MARCH S. John Matthews, aged 14, and Henry Eglington, aged 23, were indicted for robbing their employer, Mr. Mat• thews, of Blackfriar's-road, of a quantify of boots and shoes to the amount of 20001. and William Jones, Fre derick Stannard, and John Henry, were indicted as re ceivers of the property. Matthews, the prisoner, was the prosecutor's nephew, and Eglington was his shop ,man, the other three prisoners were fashionably dressed young men ; and appeared to be equally respectable. Jones and Stannard were said to belong to the Coburg Theatre; and Henry, who wore mustachios, had been engaged in a merchant's office in Cornhill. It appeared that Matthews having become acquainted with Jones, Stannard, and Henry, supplied them with boots and shoes, sometimes in great quantities, and Matthews re ceived from them either money, some article of wearing apparel, or fire-works. They were found guilty, and the Chairman, in a very impressive address, sentenced Eglington and Henry to seven years transportation ; and Matthews, Jones, and Stannard, to fourteen years' transportation. The trial occupied from ten in the morning , until five in the afternoon, and excited the greatest interest in a crowded Court. Friday, a deputation of the Merchants connec:ed with the Cape of Good Hope, waited upon the Caast ciu.x.oa of the EXCIIIIQUIR respecting the duties on Cape wine. In the reduction of wines generally from 71. 7d. to 4s. per gallon, wine from the Cape was en tirely overlooked. As it forms the return payment of two-thirds of the exports, the article is of the first im portance to that Colony, and has lately averaged eight thOusand pipes annually. The present duty on Cape wine is 2s. 6d.br 21. 7d. per gallon, and the merchants pray for a reduction, on the scale of that of the other ditties. The wine from the Cape cannot, they contend, without this reduction, stand the competition with Por tugal and other wines. The deputation was favourably received, and informed, that the representation would be immediately taken into the. serious consideration of Government. CORN EXCHANGE, MARE-LANE, MARCH 1.
