1 NNENNEEr LAW REPORT. COURT OF OF KING'S BF,NCIL JULY zo. The Lona CrilEF Juvr....cx, the Duke of Your:, and Earl liaTituasrr, took their scats on the Bench, when the following cause was called: 6 BRADLEY V. ARTHUR. This was an action for assault and mutiny, specified in several counts. The defendant pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. linoucttam stated the case. The plaintiff, Colonel Bradley, raised himself to his present rank by a course of arduous services. He was employed in the West Indies for twenty years. In 1818, he was sent to Hon duras with a part of the regiment, and in that place met t. ith Colonel Arthur, wbo commanded the York Chas %et,rs, mid was his superior in command. Col. Bradley had made a military road at great labour, and improved the country by many public works. In 1819, the York Chasseurs were to_ be disbanded, and a conversa tion took place on the change consequent on that cir cumstance ; as Colonel Bradley would then be the chief in command when Colonel Arthur's military functions ceased. Colonel Bradley offered his influence at home in favour of Colobel Arthur, in the event of his regiment being disbanded. Two months' notice were usually given previous to the disbanding of a regiment; and on the 12th of June, an order came from England for the York Chasseurs being disbanded in Canada. The regiment accordingly embarked for Canada, and was disbanded. From that moment Colonel Bradley became the Commanding Officer. The order also noti fied that the Officers were to be placed on half-pay. The Army List, in March, contained the name of Lieu tenant-Colonel Arthur, as being on half-pay. An interval from December to March elapsed, before Colonel Brad ley acted upon his title of superior command. Colonel Arthur remained in the Colony, expecting a commission from England. It was in expectation of - some order cf this kind that Colonel Bradley hesitated to act ; but find ing it necessary at length to assume his true character, a c ircumstance of a - singular nature called his authority into immediate action. Colonel Arthur had formerly told him, in a private conference, that he must still re taip the command in the Colony, though he was then only a Civil Functionary—and he circulated a request to the Officers of the Colony to attend a Meeting for a specific purpose. Seven Officers attended this Meeting, and after a long speech from Colonel Arthur, he was ap pointed Commander-in. Chief by that small party. Co lonel Bradley was, of course, invited to attend this Meet ing, but declined ; saying, if Colonel Arthur could shew a title to the chief command he would cheerfully obey him, but till that was done, he should consider any obe dience to Col. Arthur as subversive of military discipline. He said he would rather be put ender arrest than at tend to such a meeting. He was accordingly arrested by Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur on the 23cl of May, and confined for seventy-three days in a single room in that inhospitable climate, his sword being taken from him. On the 2d of August an order was received from Ja maica for Colonel Bradley being set at large ; another order came subsequently from England to the same effect ; but setting the subject of arrest aside for the present, he would question the tight of Colonel Arthur to assume the command ; the 23th Article of War spe cified, that no Officer should be confined for more than eight days, or till such a time as a Court Martial should rake place. As a right, allowing that Colonel Arthur was entitled to the chief command, why did he not in stitute a trial by Court Martial, when Jamaica was only six days sail Prom Honduras ? A Court Martial could not be held by less than twelve Officers; and if this number was not in the Colony, why not send to Jamaica for some, or send Colonel Bradley thither? But no ;• Colonel Bradley was refused an opportunity to go from the Colony, until after repeated inquiries and proposals; he was allowed to depart ten months after his original arrest ; his sword, was given to him, indeed, but his rank in the Army was gone ; he came home with broken health and broken fortunes, after 20 years service in the trying climate of the West Indies. He now came into this Court for some reparation of the in juries a Bich he had sustained ; he was a poor man, who had raised himself by his own merits alone; contending single-handed with the influence of power. The Jury would, no doubt, do justice to the wounded feelings, in jured character, and broken fortunes of the plaintiff. Several interrogations were here put in and read; the answers thereto by the defendant were also put in and read. Another order was read, depriving Colonel Brad. ley of the command of the detachment of the 2d West India Regiment, and giving it to Captain Lord. Lord Palmerston examined by Mr. Bnotronak—Re turns from Officers abroad are made sometimes to my Office, and sometimes to the Commander-in-Chief. An Officer in my department has the Returns. Mr. Robert Lukin, Clerk in the War Office.—The York Chasseurs were disbanded in August, 1819: The Officers were not immediately put on half-pay. They sometimes return home; cannot tell if all the Officers were put on half-pay at the time. Colonel Ar thur was not placed on half-pay till 1820, by the date of the warrant, which was January 19, 1820; that does imply that be received his full pay up to that time. Ile received half-pay in part front the 25th of October, I Sl9. The York Chasseurs were disbanded on the 24th of August, 1819. at Quebec. The order for half-pay was sent to his Agent on the 7th January. The usual way of communicating the disbanding of regiments is through the Adjutant-General Sir Henry Torrens, Adjutant-General—l have the returns from Honduras for 1819-'2O, made by the su perintendant of the colony to the Adjutant-General.— The order for Colonel Arthur to be placed on half-pay would not affect his command at Honduras. An Offi cer, after having been put on half-pay, would not have any further command in the regiment, but that would not interfere with his Staff appointment, which an Of ficer may have independent of his commission. There was an appointment of superintendant of Honduras given to Colonel Arthur; that order was in writing. In answer to other questions from the Attorney Ge neral, Sir Henry Torrens said, that Colonel Arthur was a Major in the 7th Vest India Regiment. and had been promoted to the York Chasseurs. The York Chasseurs had never been at Hondural at all. By Mr. BROUGHAM—WouId an officer going to a place where there is,a; another officer of inferior rank in command, takellte command of the place? No; unless sinci4llpipp*iutid ; but the inferior officer would not ice till a reference was made to head-quarters. A corn- Mandant in a town would continue to exercise his autho. thy though a higher officer was passing through that town. The Superintendant of Honduras ' ‘a civil moffi cer, but has the command of the colony. ' Mr. BROUGHAM—Suppose I were to y Stivirintend. auL of Honduras (which GOD forbid).— ( LaitgUer)— would I be entitled to command the army there ?—Yes; provided you had military rank. Mr. BROUGHAM—Aye, aye,, provided I had military rank—that was just what I wanted. The further evidence of Sir H. Torrens proved that Colonel Arthur continued to command in Honduras till the period of his quitting the colony, notwithstanding his being on half-pay. The deposition of General Conran, Commander at Jamaica, was now read, respecting the returns from Honduras, to the head-quarters at Jamaica, and other matters. To one interrogatory, it replied that no com munication had been made to Colonel Bradley, as Com mandant of Honduras, but to Colonel Arthur. Lient.-Colonel Freemantle examined by Mr. EVANS. I was Deputy Adjutant-General at Jamaica. The order for the disbanding of the York Chasseurs was previ ously to my arrival. I do not recollect having read any order relative to Colonel Arthur's being put on the half-pay list. Letters and documents were read respecting Co. l lonel B.'s dismissal, by order of the Commander-in- 1 Chief, with liberty to sell his commission of Major only. As having been but lately promoted .to the Lieutenant- Colonelcy without purchase, he was not considered entitled to that consideration. The Duke of York then retired. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL, for the defendant, said, the Jury had heard from Sir H. Torrens that Col. Arthur was appointed Superintendant of Honduras by General Fuller, then commanding in Jamaica ; that appoint ment was made without any reference to his military rank, or the regiment to which he belonged—in fact, the York Chasseurs had never been in Honduras, but Colonel Bradley, understanding that they were to be re duced, thought proper to assume the command of the garrison. If any doubts respecting the future com mand arose in Colonel Bradley's mind, he should have written to head-quarters for instructions. When Colonel Arthur issued an order for the Officers of the garrison to meet at the Government House, Colonel Bradley not only refused to attend, hat actually issued a contrary order, directing the Officers to meet him at an earlier hour, at his quarters ; Colonel Arthur sent an Officer to expostulate with Col. Bradley, and endeavoured to bring him to a sense of his duty, but in vain ; and Colonel Arthur felt himself compelled to arrest him for muti nous conduct ; Colonel Bradley being a Field Officer, it was impossible to bring him to a Court Martial in Honduras, as every Officer must be a Captain at least, and there were not a sufficient number of Officers corn- I pctent at that time, and Colonel Arthur had not any! power to send Colonel Bradley on board ship to Ja maica till he received orders from the Commander-in-I Chief. On the very day of the arrival of an order from the Commander-in-Chief for Colonel Bradley being freed from close arrest, he was immediately set at large. The delay which had occurred was not am i bumble to Colonel Arthur, but to the non-arrival of any vessel at Honduras. Lieutenant Webb, Acting Adjutant of the 2d West; India Regiment, was in Honduras ; always considered Col. Arthur as superior in Honduras. Col. Bradley ordered him to carry an order to the Brigade Major, summoning a meeting of the Officers of the garrison; the order was signed, , 4 Major Bradley, Lieutenant- Colonel Commandant."—He carried the order, and shewed it to Major Lord, who would have nothing to do with the order; he then carried it back to Colonel Bradley, saying, he would not promulgate such an or der ; Colonel Bradley said, he would place him under arrest in consequence. • By a Juror—Why did you not obey the order of your superior Officer ?—Because it was not my duty to issue garrison orders; I was only a regimental Officer. Lieutenant Willis commanded a detachment in Hon duras. He acted as Secretary to the Colonel Com mandant, Arthur. He attended the Meeting at the Government 1-louse. He was present when Major Noel desired the attendance of Colonel Bradley, by the direc tion of Colonel Arthur. Colonel Bradley said, he would not come publicly, but if Colonel Arthur requested him in private, he would go ; assigning as a reason, that it was contrary to the King's regulations to assemble Officers on such an occasion. He did not recollect if any thing was said respecting the office of Commandant. Major General Walker was stationed at Jamaica from the 13th of June till December, 1820. He received dis patches from Colonel Arthur respecting the arrest of Colonel Bradley. He answered the dispatch on the 24th of July, and transmitted it to Sir Herbert Taylor. Sir Herbert Taylor, Military Secretary to the Com mander-in Chief, received dispatches from General Walker, inclosing dispatches from Colonel Arthur, which were laid before the Duke of York. In Sir Her bert's opinion, the appointment of Colonel Arthur to Honduras was not vacated by the disbanding of the York Chasseurs. He could not resign that appointment without the concurrence of his Majesty. Cross-examined by Mr. littouonam:—General Fuller 'could not . appoint * civil person to the command at Honduras. A half-pay Officer was not answerable to a Court-Martial, nor to be called out in a military point of view. He would further explain himself: supposing the Governor of Jamaica chose to send out a half-pay Officer to the command at Honduras, he could do it, subject to the approbation of his Majesty, and his ap pointment would be effective till his Majesty's pleasure was known. All appointments on foreign stations were made subject to the approval of his Majesty. Mr. BROUGHAM, in reply, said, that the Counsel for the defence had not at all answered the case which he had laid open to the Jury. He had not answered the right of the defendant to arrest. The Jury must be satisfied of the authority by which General Fuller had appointed' Col. Arthur to the command at Honduras. The Jury must observe the greatest inconsistency be tween the evidence of the General Officers who had appeared there to-day. No authority from his Ma jesty appeared to have been given to Colonel Arthur t..) continue in the command. The authority from General Fuller must have terminated at the moment that Col. Arthur's rank in the Army ceased. No mortal but the King could confer on him a military character. He ceased to be amenable to a Court Martial, having ceased to hold a command in the Army. Colonel Arthur did not even act on the appointment of Gen. Fuller. He did not produce it at the meeting of the 23d, being himself sensible of its uselessness. In his conference with the plaintiff, he said, if he was really on half-pay, heawould, of course, be relieved, as it was desirable that the Superintendent of Honduras should also have the command of the troops, thereby allowing that his command had ceased. After having disposed of the right of arrest, he came now to the period of confine ment. Seventy-three days close,onfinemerit in a nar row room, in that pestilential climate, until an order cams from head-quarters to release him from that long confinement, indicates anything but humanity in Colo nel Arthur, whose conduct was most unjustifiable. The CHIRP JUSTICE said, that Col. Arthur was not answerable for the conduct of his superior Officer. Any delay that had occurred since the arrest was not the' fault of Colonel Arthur. Mr. BROUGHAM resumed.—The highest authority in the law bad said, that any evil consequences which might have befallen COl. Bradley, on account of his long arrest, were not to be attributed to Col. Arthur, but to the delay arising from the dispatches coming from su perior Officers; and it would be in vain for him to ad dress the Jerry on that point. The length of confine .ment—the injuries sustained in consequence—and the' denial of justice in due time—were all points for the Jury, in whose hands he would leave the case. The Loan CHIEF Jorr:ca summed up in a most impartial !strainer, and the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff on the last point—confinement.—Damages, £lOO. The cause occupied the whole of the day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARY-LA-BONNE Mo. Paarms.—Yesterday, at one o'clock, this Gentleman pre sented himself before the presiding Magistrates, War. Hosititts and EDMUND Gar.rErrn, Esqrs. and Lord Movvroan, who was attracted to the office in consequence of its being the thy appointed for the final hearing of the matter so long at Issue between Mr. Parkins and the Parochial Officers of Mary-la-Bonne. The case being called, Mr. 14.0vn, Solicitor to. the parish, presented himself, and read the order of affiliation made at the Quarter Sessions on the 2d of August, 1822, confirming that made at this office some time before. This order merely contained the usual averments of the award of 4s. per week, and the expenses, the whole of which the defendant was to pay. The order or summons averred a debt of 71. 16s. upon the order. Mr. GRIFFITIT then said, that as the complaint was that such a sum was due, the necessary proof must be adduced. Mr. aP Naughton one of the Overseers of the Parish, being then sworn and examined by Mr. LLOYD, said he made the complaint, and the amount due to the Churchwardens and Overseers, on the order of a child affiliated by Hannah White against Mr. Parkins, was 71. 16s. He came there to claim that sum. The order was signed by Mr. Rawlinson and Mr. Griffith. A long and irrelevant cross-examination then ensued, at the close of which Mr. Parkins addressed the Bench, condemning them for what they had done in this case. The coterie of the parish had pub lished him in every shape to the world. He then declared that a man named Wickstead was the father of the child, and so con vinced was be of the fraud attempted to be imposed on him, that he would not make himself a willing agent to anything of the kind, and therefore would not enter into any compromise, but desired the Magistrates to do as they thought fit. Mr. GRIFTITU.—Don ' t be rash, Sir; T have but to commit you, 1f the money be not instantly paid. lam sitting here to exercise equal justice to all men. Mr. Parkins.—l am an advocate for the exercise of equal justice, Sir, therefore do as you think proper. Mr. Gmentar.—Undoubtedly, Sir, to I will; and as I never make any distinctions, so in this case I do my duty without respect of persons or panics, and therefore commit you to the House of Correction fur three months. I have now disposed of this case, and have done my duty. Mr. Parkins—Very well, Sir, if you want the money, you must take the means the law allows you. Let me see your warrant of committal. Mr. Parkins then told the Parish Officers that he would indict them all for a conspiracy ; and, turning to the Rev. Mr. Bengood, one of the Curates, said—" Ace you Parson ? if you have anything to do with these, shall include you in the prosecution.' The Office was crowded to excess.—On the warrant being made out, it was placed in the hands of Mr. Parkins for perusal, and he having done so, went into the Clerk's Office, and paid the Chief Clerk, Mr. Mallets, the sum demanded, OE7 16s. with 6s. 6d costs, and then left the Office. UNION-HALL. Yesterday, one of the Overseers of the Parish of St. Saviour, complained to the Magistrate of the extreme cruelty of a man named Alex, living in Williams's-court, Great Guildford-street. He had been informed of the circumstances by the neighbours, and on proceeding with his colleague to the house, they found in a nu- seeable room, a little boy, the nephew of Allen, about eleven years of age, fastened, with a, large chain about his neck, to the wall ; he was crying piteously, and appeared to be suffering from the effects of recent chastisement. The little fellow told them that his uncle had struck him on arm and head isith a piece of iron, and that he was in great agony. They found on him some severe cuts and bruises. fie also complained of hunger, and told them he had not eaten anything for 24 hours; aiding; that his uncle would not permit him to have half food enough. All the victuals they could discover in the house was, the remains of a musty half-quartern loaf, which appeared as if it had been gnawed by rats; this was in a table-drawer in the room where the child was confined; there was also a portion of the bread in a broken chamber-pot, steeped in water, to soften it. Under these circumstances, he (the Overseer) considered it his duty to acquaint the Magistrates with the state in which he tcund the child. The Magistrate (M. SW.IIIEIN Esq.) expressed his approba tion of the Overseer's conduct, and immediately directed an officer to bring the child and its unnatural uncle before him. The former, on his arrival at the office, exhibited all the appearances of hunger. His clothes were ragged and torn, his flesh filthy, not having been Washed for at least a month, and his kead and arms bore the marks of severe chastisement, which he stated to have received from his uncle a day or two before. He seemed to be totally ignorant of the nature of an oath, and said he was neither sent to a Day School nor Sunday School by his uncle. A Mrs. Alder, who lives opposite to Allen, confirmed the boy's statement. The defendant declared that he was under the necessity of placing the greatest restraint upon the boy, who was one of the most wicked and mischievous lads in existence; and the only plan he knew of, to keep him out of the streets, was by fastening him up with a chain, for, if be did not do this, he would go out in the morning, and not return until bight. He also associated with young thieves, and to save him from such company, was another cause for adopting harsh measures. He always gave him as much bread as he could eat; and there was at present a quartern loaf in his house untouched, which the boy knew be was at perfect liberty to make use of. He corrected him occasionally, when he required it, but not so severely as to occasion the wounds he had exhibited, which, in fact, were produced by falls, when at play with his companions. The Magistrate observed, that a more gross charge of wanton and cruel severity towards a child, seldom came before him, and he would now call upon the defendant to give bail, to answer the com plaint at the Sessions. The child was ordered to be taken to the Workhouse of the parish idwhich the circumstance took place. The Queensberry Stock, about which so much has been said, was sold onWednesday, amounting to .C 470,000. One very extensive broker took two-thirds of it- There are twenty-four persons to be tried for murder at the present Assizes for the county of Clare. It is said that no less than five miles of pipes are already laid down for lighting the parish of St. Mary la-Bonne with gas. When the whole will be completed, sixty miles of pipes will have been laid down. One hundred and twelve foreigners, of whom twekty two are English, have been permitted to establish their domicile in France during the year 1823, and 88 have obtained letters of naturalization. The Sieurs Arnoux and Hormuz, the first Adjutant in Chief, and the second Adjutant of the galley slaves in the arsenal of the Royal Navy, at Toulon, have been stabbed by a galley slave, who threw himself upon them, like a madman. whilst returning in the evening his labour. This fearful attempt is the result of a resolu tion taken among some slaves condemned for life, and who have sworn the death of the persons placed over them for their guard. The miserable contriver of this assassination went to glut his rage upon others em ployed over the gallies, when he was happily struck by a shot, and two other wounds which laid him on the ground, but did not kill him. Another galley slave was wounded in the moment of the disorder, by a shot in the thigh, and died from the consequences of the am. putation. The Sieur Arnoux expired almost upon the spot, and the Sieur Bonvoux some hours afterwards.— Already seven Adjutants or Sub-adjutants of galleys ,have experienced the same fate in the space of two years, three only of whoa survived.—French Paper. • 11 - PUBLIC SALEt. . . .

" The present inhabitants of our Settlement of Harz consist of on or about— White Inhabitants Slaves Free People of Colour Free Blacks 150 2,600 co 500 Black Pensioners, late belonging to the West India Regiments, disbanded 650 A Detachment of the 2d West India Regiment 2(0 Total number of perAem% - 4,700 " In this small community there has been 376 slaver manumitted from 1803 to 1823, generally gifted tLem from their good conduct, some being allowed to purchase their manumission: many of theie Are now wealthy. It is with much satisfaction I refer to the emulation which appears amongst the Negro population in this settlement. They are particularly well fed, and treated with proper care. There is very little occasion to punish them, they are so well disposed ; and I did not observe any driver carrying a whip. Indeed many of the large gangs, employed at the mahogany w o rks far distant front their owners, are managed by one of thcir superior negroes; and so far as I could learn and per ceive, their privileges are very great, being permitted two days in the week to themselves, and permission to cultivate the soil to any extent for their own irr•.meJiate profit, to build canoes, and raise any suit of stock ; in. deed the proprietor frequently becomes a large pur chaser of the negroes' industry, thereby encouraging it. Their allowance from the owner consi•ts of pork, plantains, rum, tobacco, powder, shot, &c. (to kill game, which is numerous), and tWo suits of clothes in the year; and I understand it is very common for them to accumulate large sums of money. " The inhabitants, for their subsistence, obtain Idrge supplies of cattle from Omoa, and are now raising quantities of vegetables, small stock, India and Guinea cote ; up the rivers fiey have plenty. of fish and tin tie. Flour, and all the United States produce, is broog by the vessels of that nation in exchange for logw•ood and mahogany. c , I have been particular iR detailing the treatment of the Negro population in our settlement of Hondutai, having recently read reports in our public journals very contradictory to my statement, and I have every reason to believe wholly erroneous. My report on that beast is founded from my own observations dating sevetal visits to that settlemeat." Yesterday the foundation-stone of a new building, at the corner of New -street, Guildhall, for tho.irish Society, was laid, with appropriate ceremony, by Mr. Alderman THORP, the Governor of the Society. Amongst. the Gentlemen present at the ceremony were the Sheriffs of London, Sir C. S. HUNTER, Aldermen Wool) and LUCAS, and a number of the Assistants. The inhabitants of Higher Croft lane, in the Palish 9f Barton-upon•lrwall, Lancashii e, have for some time resisted the payment of parochial rates, and nearly murdered the officers who attempted to enforce the law. In consequence, two troops of the Scots Greys were marched from Manchester to the place, and under ' their countenance the civil power took a number of the rioters into custody. Yesterday, the family of Mr. WHARTON. bookseller, near the turnpike at Walworth, were violently alarmed by a dog of the Newfoundland species rushing into the shop, foaming at its mouth, and making its way up stairs. or some time no person could be prevailed upon to venture up stairs, till one man, more courage.; ous than the rest, seized a poker, determining to face the enraged animal, and followed by another, armed w:: a large spade, by their united efforts the rabid animal, after a violent and desperate resistance, was destroyed. A boy, named Williams, was yesterday morning bitten in the hand by a dog; it occurred in the City Green-yard, while the boy was standing looking at the LORD MAYOR'S carriage and horses; he was taken to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, when caustic was a?plieJi and hopes are entertained that he will do well. Pie vious to this accident, another boy in the same neigh bourhood had his thumb bitten off; the dog that bit Williams, had much the appearanee of the early stage of madness. No less than three Inquests were yesterday held on persons drowned while bathing; one at the Red House, Battersea, on T.
