. 1 .' ..- money and interest. But, whatever was the actual fact as to the merits, it wis clear that upon the face of the documents, the legal estate was in the defendant; an that he could set it tipi oven against the equitable claihr of the plaintiff'! lessor. To prevent his doing so, and to afford an opportunity of ascertaining the just rights-of the parties the Court had, last Easter Term, made a rule,' ordering the defendant not to set up his )egal estate in answer to this action, if it should appear that the plain tiff's lessor was entitled to possession. Upon this rule, the cau.e was brought to issue, and the record carried down for trial at the last Assizes for the county of Dor set. It was entered for trial, and stood second on the , list, when the Attorney for the plaintiff applied to the, defendant's Attorney, and desired him to admit the Rule of Court before referred to; he having, inadvert ently, neglected to provide himself with it from the Rule Office in Lon.ton. The defendant's Attorney de clined entering into any admission whatever; and the plaintiff's Attorney thereupon withdrew the Record, from an alleged apprehension that, in the absence of thin Rule,. the legal estate might be set up against his client, and might defeat the justice of the case. Mr. Barstow now, upon the ordinary affidavit, (stating the notice of trial, and the failure of trial according to that notice), moved for the usual costs of the day ; leaving , it for the plaintiff's Counsel to apply to the Court if he sliould think - fit, and move to deprive the defendant of his Costs.—Rule granted. COUB,T OF COMMON PLEAS, NOV. so. SCOTT V. BYE. In this case a debt of fifty-one shillings had been re= covered in the Court of Requests ; and a writ of false judgment was sued out and made returnable in the Court of Common Pleas, where the matter was argued at Considerable length. The CHIEF JUSTICE this day delivered the judgment in 'the case, which was, that a Court of Common Law had no jurisdiction -over the decisioris of the Court of Requests, which, in the statute by which it was consti tuted,.was called a Court of Equity. His Lordship ex pressed great satisfaction that the Court had no juris diction in the case, as otherwise litigious parties would defeat the benevolent intention of the Legislature in tastituting the Court of Requests, by appealing to Courts of Law. The rest of the Judges of the Court easseurred in this opinion. TH E 14X14.:NING STAR. LONDON. MONDAY, 4 NOVEMBER 22, 1824. THE FUNDS. • STOCK EXCHANGE.

Addresses of congratulation still continue to pour in to CHARLES X who appears very studiously to lose no opportunity of ingratiating himself with the people. The Moditenr contains accounts from Madrid, of the Bth instant, stating, that the Government is very active in organizing an army to replace the French troops, vhich be •-ithdra' The C' it of Castile Atch are to . wig :ern. .ne Connell is said .to have represented to the Kilda the imminent danger likely to accrue if the French troops evacuate Madrid; and yet, in the very same article, we are told that the criminal and ridiculous designs of the revolu tionists only proves their own weakness, and chews to all Europe the force and perfect union of the Royalists. These Papers stay, that the preparationi for the departure of , the French troops had already commenced at Madrid. A foretaste of the consequences was also experienced there. The rabble of the Servile party, conceiving there was already an impunity for crime, began the work of assassination upon persons suspected of Constitutionalism. This was not confined merely to the capital. In several other places disorders and violent animosities broke loose in contempt of the public authority, and even of the French. garrison. Some disorder, the nature of which is not well explained, appears to have occurred at Corunna, where 2 4 000 men ite said to be assembled, to be embarked for the Ha vaniuds. According to one statement, these troops have mutinied ; but this report is contradicted , in the same letter which communicates it, and the following is given as a correct statement of the facts : " In consequence of a quarrel among the soldiers, some were arrested. Their friends and comrades insisted that they should be set at liberty ; and, being unable to obtain .. Ai v. dc . Ass .. art object, deserte about tornaksber of 100 4t-ThiaNesto?

Vtisre.,ire #0 rttiisOurs of ' tittprreci in other piaces, particularly atßadajos, where a nit is said to have bitten out on the departure of the French garrison for Cadiz. It ought to be observed, that thesel reports, which appear in letters from Madrid of the Bth instant, published by the Journal des Debats and the Constitutionnel, are not repeated in a letter dated the I ith, which we find in the Quotidienne. The attention of the Spanish Government is said to be earnestly directed to the formation of a Royalist army, capable of supplying the place of the French force about to be withdrawn ; but with an empty Exchequer, this object is not one of easy 'accomplishment. Frotois NAND finds it, necessary to raise money before he Cali. raise men ; and it is for the purpose of facilitating the creation of new corps that urgent applications have re cently been made for contracting a loan with certain houses in Paris. The Pgik relates some further confirmations of the iefeat deitruction of the To' kish fleet ; and it states, -on the authority of a private letter, That the Capitan Pacha had been beheaded in the presence of the Strt.Ter4, in the inner court of the Seraglio. This is *customary fate of all the unsuccessful warriors of the Porte. The late Capitan Pucka is the fourth who has periated because he co - uld not vanquish the-Greeks. ItTaavrscu .

VIENNA, NOVEMBER ZO O Several of our merchants have received letters from Constantinople of the list and 23d of October, stating that great consternation exists in the Divan. It is certain that by the destruction and dispersion of the Turkish and Egyptian fleets, the Greeks are absolute m a sters of the Dardanelles, and can brockade it and starve the capital. This will be. the most expedient means to humble the pride of the Ottoman Porte, and force them to recognise ; their independence. • • The Journal of F'albitia gives the firittal copy of an ,oath taken by the Royal Volunteers of Murcia..

After so many storms, which have prevailed for more than a whole month, and hive done so much damage an our and the neighbouring coasts, we had last night a storm from theW.N.W.accornpauied with thunder and lightning, and between two and three o'clock, with the 'flood coming in, the sea rose to an ez t traorginary and amazing height, such as has not been seen here in the memory of man, being one ell, nine palms, and three inches, above the usual high-water mark, and the waves heat over the summit of the great Sea Dyke; thank HEAVEN thete is not, as far as we can hear, any imme diate danger of a breach. HAARLEM, NOVEMBER 17. b . , The reports of the state of the water in the lower rivers are not yet satisfactory. The dykes on titre right bank of the Lek have suffered very much by the,beating Of the waves against them. Every precaution is 'taken •to prevent the waters from doing farther damage. At Cologne the water was rising on the Nth, but fell on the 14th. On the 16th the water had risen some inches at Arnheirn and other places. On the 15th the water was very high at Bois le Duc, and the country of Or then, Empel, &c. was inundated so rapidly, that the far mers had no time to save any preriisions or fodder for their horses. • Nov. 19.—The accounts from the riven are by no means favourable. On the 17th the watery continued to rise. On the preceding day the Rhine was rising at Emmerich, sand even at Cologne ; and at eight in the morning had risen to the height of 27 feet 2i inches. between eight and ten , it was stationary.

Saturday afternoon, a shocking accident befel it, poor man, named John Hine, advanced in life, in the employ of Mr. Rhodes, cow-keeper, of Horton. The poor fel low was driving a heavy cart, laden with grains, from a brewery in the Borough to his masters premises, when, on ascending the Surrey side of .Blackfriars bridge, just as he reached the centre, he being in the act of walking on the pavement and driving the horses, his foot slipped, and he felt down a distance of about a yard upon the carriage-way. Although several passengers saw him fall, and ran to his assistance, before they could, reach him, or stop the horses, one • of the cart wheels had passed over his body across the loins, and he was taken up for dead. The poor man was conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where he died shortly after his' arrival. The cart and horses were taken to the owner by a street-keeper.--Since Blackfriars-bridge has been Macadamized, no alteration has taken place in 'the pavement, and several accidents have occurred, owing to the distance from the pavement to the earriage-rdad, there not being a fence at present to hinder passengers from falling off the pavement.

By the Frinsbury transport, which arrived at Ports moutkon Saturday from Cape Coast, we learn that all had been quiet within the borders of that settlement since the discomfiture and dispersion of the Askantee army in July last. A report prevailed at Accra, that the insubOrdination and discontent excited among the Ashantees by the signal defeat a the plans of their King Adder Assia), to drive the English out of the country, had cost the King his life and kingdom; the Dunquaras having taken advantage of his defenceless situation to attack and plunder his territory and capital. The remaining British troops at Cape Coast were telt rably healthy, as were the officers and crews of Com.- =dote Bullen's squadron. The Maidstone and Victor were left at St. Thomas's; the Bann and Swinger at Accra and Cape Coast.

A serious accident happened on the stage of Covent Garden Theatre on Monday night last.

Mr. Parsloe, the prompter, al though he had never attempted anything of the kind, put on the dress, and succeeded in performing the character extremely well, until he arrived at the scene where there is a great bustle between Harlequin, Co• lumbine, Clown, and Pantaloon, when Mr. Parsloe, instead of avoiding a blow from Harlequin's sword, received it on his right eye. He was carried off unob served 'by the audience ; but the cry became general for Barnes, who did not appear in those curious scenes a shaving by:-steam,. cutting, off his nose, &c. Mr. Grimaldi came forward to apologize for the non appearance of Pantaloon, by - informing the audience that he had met with a serious accident, and was unable to complete his performance that evening. Medical assistan:e was immediately procured for Mr. Parsloe, when the eye was discovered to ,have been actually struck out, and he Was in a high fever.
