The LORD CDANcELLOR gave judgment in this case. After going through the affidavits, his Lordship ob served that none of them spoke decisively as to whether the trees in Prest-woof were planted or left standing for ornament; and again advcrted to the difficulty of determining whether a wood, from whence timber had been taken for profit, through which - the owner had Chosen to make a ride, became so consecrated thereby as to come within the protection of the Court of Chan cery? His Lordship th6ught not; and observed, that a tenant for life merely, without impeachmentof waste, might have a right to cut down timber, and apply it to his own use and benefit. His Lorifditk rettrarked, in the course o! his judgment, that the C,Jurtof Chancery had, by the doctrine laid down respecting this subject, taken gt eat liberties with the rights of mankind; and illustrated his temarks by referring td the vOr prObA hie case of two yew tfees, cut in the shape :,of pea- Cockt, which though objects of aversion at the present day, might have been thought speck - seas of taste for merly, and would still be protected by the taste of the Court of Chancir. The order of the Court was, that the plaintiff shou ld go berore the Master, and give security fur the value of all the trees which the defendants should be prevented from cutting, to in demnity the defendants, if it should prove that the , application to the Court was uncalled for ; and that one issue should be directed to try whether the tins her was planted or left . standing foe ornament or shelter by any former owner of the estate; and ano ther ante to determine what estate or interest such owner possessed in the lands at the period when the timber was planted; The Master to proceed de die in diem. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, APRIL e 3. • lITRHZ If. rAHICIRS. Mr. BROUGHAM said that he was instructed to move fir a new trial in this case, and also in the ease of •, Egerton v. Furman," the wager en the dog-fight ; but requested that they might stand titer till a future day, on account of his own indisposition and the ab sence of the Lord Chief Justice, who tried the causes. The COURT acceded to the Learned Counsel's request. THE KING V. ASITALETT. This was an indictment for a libel in the Pottery Pantie, on Messrs. Ridgway:, large china-manufac turers, imputing to them hypocrisy in their religions, and unfairness In their political character. Mr. LUDLOW now moved for a new trial, on the ground that there was no sufficient evidence of the publication of the libel to warrant a conviction. The only cpy of• the newspaper containing the libel which oas ptoduced in evidence was the copy left at the Stamp-office, pursuant to Act of Parliament; - and he contended, that as that was an involuntary publica tion, and made wholly for another purpose, it was not tufficient to support the indictment. It must appear that the defendant had actually sent forth the alleged libel into the world. Fur anything that appeared to the contrary, no other copy of the paper had ever been printed, or having been printed, the defendant might hi* repented, and destroyed the whole impression, l e:Copt the copy sent to the Stamp-office. The prose cutors having failed to give the usual proof of publi tatlon, they were obliged to resort to the proof required at common law, and the proof given, it was submitted, mosissofficient, especially in a criminal case. Mr. Justice BATLEY and Mr. Justice HOLROTD were lath dearly of opinion that there was a sufficient pub. Illoatiou of the libel to support the indictment, and therefore refined the role.

Dr. JSNNSIt and Dr. Li/SIIINGTON Counsel for the Rev. W. Proby, ai gned that that Gentleman, its was Una manifest from the evidence, hadlehaved with the utmost lenity to Avis; who, besides treating him it: a Most insulting manner, and putting out his tithe in kind after the most vexatious form thathe could devise, had since applied in that Court to be admitted to plead in forrma.pooperia; but upon the same evidence the Court had ref used his pm; er. The Learned Coensel chewed that Mr. Proby h id no other course to pursue but that which he had adopted ; and that f , ,r the cor:s quences of this expensive suit, Avis had only to thank his own oh ttinacy and bad feeling, in sersting the tept.fted offers made to him to arrange the matter on the most friendly terms, at i period when the esreiiws would have been extremely inconsiderable. Dr. J. ADDAMS and Dr. Las were heard in the defence; and Sir Citatirrornan Itonixiont prdnouuced fur the tithe clainied ; and condemned Avis in the costs. When the E irl of CLANC4IITY was Captain of a man of war, and was cruising on the Coast of Guinea, he happened to lose his Chaplain, who was carried off by a fever; on which the Lieutenant, a Bcotclunan, gave A6tite of it, saying at the same time, " that he was OMIT to inform horn that he died sr Roman Catholic." 4. W.ll, so much the better," said his Lordship.

It is saiJ that the Duke of Northumberland has re fused all remuneration from the Government to defray t' e expense of his embassy to Rheims, to represent his Bt i•annic Majesty, at the approaching coronation of the King of France. When the expense of this mission, upon the splendid scale in which the Doke of Nerthenn-' berhnd has arranged to conduct it, is considered, ki.k• Grace's delicacrin refusing the disbursement of his expenses, is calculated to uphold, in the eyes of foreigners, the dignified station of a Peer of Great, Br;tain. His Majesty has determined to testify hit" gr4cious - sense of the Duke's acceptance of the Eats-• bassy in the manner described, to present hint with a magni&ent diamond hiked sword, of the value of ten thousand pounds. The Duke of Northumberland's state carriage is nearly finished. Two houses are pro vided for his Grace, one at Paris, and the other at Rheims. Slme of his Grace's suite le ft town at the end of the week for the Continent, with a awl ege of horses and carriages Early in May, the Duke and family will set out, and expensive arrangements are is progress for a succession of entertainments which his Grace means to give to the French Nobility, during his sojourn amongst them. New carriages are to be launched on this oc casion by Count Bourke de Bourgh, Lord Granville, the British Ambassador, and' Prince ESterhasy. THE CWtN TRAM. A curious, though imperfect return for every. month of last year, of all the prices of foreign Corn, at the several places of shipment, has been presented to the House of Commons. The accounts are too various and voluminous to admit of insertion I but one general in ference is obvious—that while the people of England have been suffering, and their manufactures cramped, from the advancing price of grain during last year, relief was even at our doors, but was unfortunately excluded by the present prohibitory Corn Laws. With respect to the ruin apprehended, or of which appre hensions are affected, by the landed interests of Eng land, if foreign grain be admitted freely, we may be allowed to say a few words. Odessa, we perceive, I the place at which Corn may be taken up at the cheap, est rate. In January last, then, Corn was, at Odessa, and in the English markets, at the following prices per quarter of Winchester measurer— ,' ODZSIIA. LONDON. wheat I hard : 19s. !d.5714 soft . tea. Od. s • • Rye . . Ss. 7d. . . 40s. d. Barley . . 71. Od. . . SO& 3a. Oats . . 9,. ad. . . stn. Od. Now, to speak only of Wheat, that article seems to have been at Odessa at the price of 21. a bushel, whilst the Gazette price in England was 7s. 2d. Bat in the first place, the price of the foreign grain being only given at the current rate of exchange, it is probable that it appears less than would have been the case had the exchange at par been quoted ; and, in the next place, the price is only given at a period when impottation into France and England was prohi bited, and when, therefore, the Odessa market was flooded, with a redundancy of the produce of the neigh bouring countries, having no outlet. Had e x portation to the West of Europe been allowed, the price would have risen to a degree of which it is difficult to fix the bounds. A remarkable proof of this is afforded in the return from Hamburgh. Oats at that port are at 6s. Sd. during the first week in August last ; in the second week they are at the same prite, 6s. la. But in the third week, they are seen suddenly to mount up to 91. 9d. the increase being more than half the first price of the whale. Upon this, the Consul, Mr. Henry Canning, remarks- 44 The great advance in Oats in the middle of August, Wes owing to the opening of the ports in England, end consequent Shipments chi• Cher, and the prier:: luere fallen again with those of England." If we estimate the price of the Odessa Wheat by the same rule, its admission into England only would suddenly raise its prime cost from 16s. 2d. to above 245. a quartet. Then follow its loading and unloading, intervening carriage, injury and diminution, by all these processes ; destruction by vermin; expense of fresh screening ; insurance, &c. All these would More than double the original cost. The best Odessa Wheat (and there is no rise in inverting any Other) could not be broeght into the English market, even if England were the only consumer, fOr so little as 501. without any import duty whatever ; and in the meantime a com merce would spring up, enriching the shipping interest, improving the fbte ign relations of the country, and adding to the skill, courage, and intelligence of our mariners, by a navigation—the Only one in which their greet Pirate, the Americans, could take no part. It will be observed, that in the drove reasoning We have. chosen Odessa, the place at Which the prime cost of grain is lowest. In Dandie, the prite of Wheat had, from the same cause—an -overflow from the want of oadet—sunk during lust October 60 tow as 17s. but rose in December to *Wet /Ss. Upon this, the Constil very justly remarks- 44 h were Muth to be wished that the prices should become higher, not only for the Ate of the farmer and landlords, who would else be ruined (as they in fact almost are already), but also for the sake of trade generally, as the impartation mut of coarse decrease as Me ciraetestaaces of the population grow atorse."—Tinges.

It has been usual to entertain the Judges and the Corporation, and City Law Officers,at the Manson-house, on the first Sundays before the first day of Easter and Ti inky Terms. The Loan MAYOR, however, has, eves since he was Sheriff, stated objections to this practice, as breaking in upon the solemnity of the Sab bath, by the conviviality inseparable from entertaining so large a party. It was, however, not possible for him to discontinue the practice, except in his owa Mayoralty, although backed in his opinion hyseverai of his brother Al&vmen. His - Lordship determined upon putting an end to it the moment be entered upon his office, and accordingly wrote-to the Judges, stating the reasons for the change.—The following circular was sent to each of the Aldermen by the Loan Wilma` and the Sheriffs : • The Lean Merest and Sheriffs beg leave to Worm Alder man that the entestainmeots which have nasally been game after Divine Service at St. Paul's Cathedral, on the first Sunday* is Batter and Trinity Terms will be discontinued during the present year.
