Mr. Sec.etary PEEL moved the Common' Adjourn ment, in consequence, we regret to say, of the indisposition of Mr. CANNING, caused by the great exertions of the Right Honourable Secretary, on the preceding evening. It was stated by Mr. Secretary Pam., that the professional persons, who attended Mr. were of opinion, that, in his present state of health, ,s t ry unnecessary effort or excitement should be avoided; but; added the Right Hon. Gentleman, " Ills Right Hon. Friend, anxious to state to the llou.e the grounds upon which his MA JESTY'S Gi.vernment had felt it their duty to adopt the line of po• hey respecting Portugal, of which the House had been already in formed, twice, for the moment, his indisposition; and the conic quince was, that his Right Hon. Friendcould not with safety attend it. his place that evening." There will be but one feeling throughout the country uprn this circumstance; a feeling of unaffected regret that the discharge of a great public duty should have been attended with midi consequences- Thr Dcke and Duchess of Clarence, accompanied by the Princess of Cailoth, left their residence at Bushy-park on Thursd .v after titp m and proceeded to the apartments of the Duchess of Kent, at the King's Pal ice, in Kensington. The Duchess of Kent enter tained her guests to dinner. In the evening, the Duke and Duchess of Clarence, the Duchess of Kent, the Princess Frodore, and the Princess ot Carloth,attended by Captain Conroy, honoured Covent-rode,' Theatre with their presence.

The Duke of York has been engaged early and late since last Saturday with Sir Herbert Taylor, his Royal Highness's Military Sectetary, in giving directions for the departure of the different troops for Portugal. Sir John Beckett, the Judge Advocate-Geue ral, transacted business with his Royal Highness yesterday. WOOLWICH, DECEMBER 15. The greatest bustle and activity have pervaded every department of the garti on here since Monday, on the night of which, between 10 and 11 o'clock, an order arrived fot four brigades of Al tillery to hold themselves in readiness to emsark for Portugal on the shortest notice. The brigades fixed upon for this service are, l M..jo r Douplas's, Nl.jor Wilgres's, Major Taylor's, and Captain Bridges. These troops are in the highest state discipline, and though partially composed of some of the best anti most experienced gunners in the service, consist chi. fly ot fine young men who have been en listed within the last two or three years. The non commissioned Officers. particularly the serjeants and staff serjeanis, are almost all steady, healthy vete rans, about forty years of age, one or two of whom have been in the service nearly a quatter of a cen tury, twenty years of which they have served abroad.— To tirese men, most of whom have wives and families, and who, what ever may be their met its, cannot look froward to JO further promotion, this removal from their country, to be exposed to all the dangers and fa tigues of war, must excite in them sensations of . great tare and and anxitty. If they should fall in battle, their wives and fam . lies will be left totally unprovided for— mat a stilling being allowed to either one or the other. Surely this is not as it ought to be. C-uld not the in fluence of the Duke of Wellington remedy this ? A greater and a better soldier never graced the annals of either ancient or modern warfare than his Grace. He, as well as his Royal Highness the Duke of York, are universally board upon among the ranks as the " soldiet's biend;" and if to the other excellent regula tions that they have introduced into the Army, they could add some provision for the families of non-com missioned Officers who may fall in the field, the prayers and blessirgs of many a widow, and of many an or phan, u ould follow them to their graves. With respect to the troops ordered for embarkation at this place, it would ill express the state of their feel. irgs to say, that the best spirit pervaded them. They are, in fact, in the highest state of enthusiasm, and ap• plications are hourly made from privates of other bri gades to be allowed to join them who are destined for Portugal. All the men have the utmost reliance upon, and respect for the r Officers. The order ID r embark ation was not given out till Tuesday morning, yet the four brigades were on Wednesday night per tectly prepared for embarkation. Yesterday, his Grace the Duke of Wellington, who is Master General of the Ordnance, reviewed this fine body of troops on Wool wich Common. His Grace arrived here about half past eleven o'clock in the morning, and immediately proceeded to the field on horseback. He was dressed in plain clothes, and though he looks aged, he ap pealed to be in remarkably good health. His pre sence seemed to be highly gratifying both to the officers and privates, and it is understood, that he ex pressed himself n et ectly satisfied with the condition and discipline ot the troops. His Grace was in the field agent an hour. He left Woolwich for town in a close carriage a little before one o'clock. The four brigades leave the garri,on on Monday next, and some say, that they will embank at the Arsenal, while other- ti ink, they will proceed to Portsmouth. It has been reported, that they will be conveyed to Lisbon in steam -boats, but this must be a mistake, as there are no accommodations for their horses and cannon on board these vessels. It is probable that the transvits enilloyed to carry them will be towed by steam-boars. There is a report, that four more brigades will be fitted out in the course of next week. Since writing the above, I have been informed, that the Duke of Wellington express ed to Colohel lAummond, his highest admiration and approbation of the c ,, nduct of the officers and privates, iti preparing for embark ation at so short a notice, and desired that these sentiments might be communicated to them on parade. Major Douglas, who is the senior Captain ot the brig:ides, is considered one of the most able anal eaperieueed officers in the service. Ile was with the Duke of Wellington in most tit the battles in the Peninsula. LEGHORN, Novamsza 29. Lckd Cochrane'a yacht arrived here from Marseilles on the 20th inst. but on account of some trifling in formality in the bill of health, no one - viare permitted to land. While under quarantine messages were sent to and received from head quarters, and great pains were taken to ascertain whether his Lordship wax on board or not, as a Gentleman was on board with a passport in a different name, whose person appeared to answer the description given of Lord C. It was not doubted for some time that this person was really his Lordship, and it was not till the sixth day that these doubts were removed, so far as to allow the party suspected and others to come on shore. The yacht sailed again yesterday on her return to Mar seilles, having Lady Cochrane and suite on board. Her Ladyship had been for a short time residing at Pisa. Lord Cochrane was left at Marseilles, where it is understood he is expecting the arrival of the frigate from America. There is a very fine schooner here built for the Pacha of Egypt, completely equipped; also a sixty-four gun ship launched the ether day, the guns for which are to come from England. 'l'o what side the Court inclines, some judgment may be formed by the fact of the ship builder having been honoured by the Grand Duke with a title for the he has shewn in constructing these two vessels. which are said by nautical men to be very beautiful models. It is reported here that a flett of transports are now assembling, and nearly ready to sail from Alexandria for Greece, and great regret is expressed that Lord Cochrane has not a force sufficient to intercept them; the popular voice is certainly %ill) the Greeks, and every ene has the greatest confidence in Lord Cochrane. LAW INTELLIGENCE. • COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Dsc. 15. NICICINSUIHAM V. GROVIS AND OTHERS. This action was brought against the several deferd ants, for a trespass committed, in forcibly entering Hodgson's Hotel, Dover -street, and carrying away the furniture, &c. which the plaintiff alleged to be his pro perty. A considerable number of Counsel wete engaged to plead the D lendatit's individual causes. The Plaintiff was • ordered to he removed from the Court by the LORD CHIFP JUSTICE, for interrupting Mr. GURNEY in his address for the Defendant, Grove , . The Jury returned a verdict for the Pl•intrff, damages forty shillings, upon one count, and for the Defendants on the other counts. THE MEG V. H. MICUX, ESQ. The defendant was indicted for as,aulting Mr. Ri chard Leatham. Mr. SCARLETT (with whom was Mr. C. PHILLIPS) observed, that it was with unfeigned regret he was compelled to bring a case of this nature before the con sideration of a Jury, but as no apology had been of fered for conduct which it was impossible to justify or excuse, no other course was left for them to pursue. The Learned Counsel, after stating shortly the facts of the case, called Mr. 11 chard Leatham, who stated, I am a partner of Mr. Meux's. On the 27th of April last, I went into the defendant's counting-house in 'Tottenham-court road; a Mr. Hams, a collecting clerk to the house, and a Mr. Stringer, a publican, were there, as also Mr. Metre. Stringer had applied to me to give him up a promissory note which had been paid ; he had applied frequently for that note, and knowing that Mr. Meux and Mr. Hams were in the counting-house, and fearing that some angry words might occur, I desired him to wait. I then went to the strong room and took out a bundle of notes, when Mr.'Meux said, 44 Mr. Hams, how the beer now ?" To which he replied, 4 4 Sir, I have had a great many complaints of late, but it is now a great deal better." I said very coolly, 6 1 Mr. Hams, when ever the publicans complain of their beer, and cannot draw it, desire them to stop it up and send it back to the house:' Mr. Meux then said, 6 6 Mr. Hams, 1 de sire yoti will do no such thing." I replied, in a low tone, " Then, Sir, I shall call on the publicans myself and tell them." Mr. Meux then rose from his chair in a great passion, and said, " You are a cowardly rascal and an infamous blackguard." I was very much as tonished at hearing such language from him, and I looked in his face, and said, " You are a bullying black guard." He then struck at me three or four times across the desk with his fist:l retreatedwith haste into my count ing house through a spring door; I then seized the poker and said, " Now, Mr. Meux, if you dare strike me, I will knock your brains out." I found him still struggling to get at me: Mr. Hams, a very powerful man, was inter posing, and he said, " Hams, get out of the way ; if you don't get out of the way, I will knock you down." Mr. Meux is a most powerful man. He either knocked down Hams, or got him out of the way. I was holding the poker in my hand, with a chair between us. Seeing I had a poker in my hard, he paused, and placed his hands on the back of the chair. I supposed he had given up the thing, and sat down. As I was about to pass the poker from my right hand to my left, he sprung on me, and folded his arms round me; he then struck me seve ral blows, and gave me a black eye; I thought he had broke my finger, and he hurt my arm very much. At that time several persons, from the adjoining counting houses, rushed an and extricated me. He then re turned to his own countinghouse, and I considered it was at an end ; but in a minute or two after, he came in again ; says 1, 44 Mr. Meux, don't strike me, and I'll not strike you." " D—n you," says he, "you strike me, you cannot kill a fly." He then struck me again, and I defended myself as well as I could, with an umbrella: he then left me, and he returned a third time, and struck me again. I then retired into ;'lr. Burnett's counting-house, and he soon after made his appearance there, when I told him. " Mr. Meux, ypu are letting yourself down, your own clerks will laugh at you." saw no more of him after that. I went afterwards be fore Sir Richard Birnie ; when there, I proposed, by the advice of my friends, to shake hands, and he should hear no more of it ; he said, " I make an apology to that man, to such a man as that!' Sir Richard Birnie said, " Recollect, Mr. Meux, you are speaking to your partner, and a Gentleman; and if you will not do so, I must bind you over to keep the peace." I had at that time a black eye, and had consulted Sir A. Carlisle. Cross examined by Mr. BROUGHAM.—I had had no difference with Mr.Meux, except a difference ot opinion ; I had avoided him because I knew his violence; he was offended with me because I would not consent to admit the son of Duncan Smith as a partner. Whenever 1 wanted anything, I sent other persons to his counting- house. What 1 said to Mr. Hams was in perfectly a calm tone. When I said I would go round myself to the publicans. it was in an under tone. I have been a partner for 17 yeats. When Mr. Meux quarrelled with his partners in Liqucrpond-street, his father wished me to go and assi,t in e.tablishing their business, and offered to lend me 4)3,000 for that purpose. Sir Richard Birnie said he remembered the patties coming before him, Mr. Leatham was marked with a black eye, and his arm was in a sling. Feeling respect for the parties, and having a slight knowledge of them, I did my best to play the speiial-geader, in endeavour. ing to make up the difference between them, but I could net succeed; I could make nothing of it, and I was obliged to do as I was in duty bound, and bind Mr. Meux over. , Mr. BROUGHAM, in addressing the Jury for the de fehdant, observed it was quite impossible to entertain any other than feelings of respect for the patties in the case, as had been observed by the worthy Magistrate before whom they had appeared ; but it was quite evi dent from the statement of the prosecutor, that there had been some differences between them, and that the provocation which had led to this unfortunate affair had arisen from ore of those complaints which were not always successful in stales of greater magnitude. It appeared that some of the publicans, forgetful of their allegiance to their liege lords, had dared to present some complaints against the beer they were supplied with. The prosecutor, instead of waiting with that deference so befitting, had ventured to give his directions without waiting for the Imperial decree of the Sovereign of all Butt. However he (Mr. Brougham) and the defendant might row deplore it, it was not to be won dered at that so great a d-gree of insubordination had excited those angry feelings which had stimulated not only the defendant but Mr. Leatham ; and he was only sorry that they had been continued so long as to bring the present procee•dinng belie them. The LORD cam JUSTICS having stated his opinion on the nature of the case, The Jury, without hesitation, found the defendant Guilty. COURT OF COI NION PLEAS, DECLAIM!" 15. !RACER AND OTHMS. ASAIGNMS or CEAIITHIVAITL. V. LYNCH. This was an action of troves brought to recover the value of a quantity of wines, and of some title-deeds, which it was alleged had been transferred to the de fendant by the bank, upt Crossthwaite, in fraudulent preference to other credi.ors, and in contemplation of an act of bankruptcy, which actually took place a short tine after the transfer had been made. A witness was called, who proved that the bankrupt had been in a state of insolvency for some time previous to the transfer being made; that he had only been able to carry on his business,by continually borrowing money of his friends, and that, frequently,• at a high rate of interest. The witness, who was his clerk, had repeat edly called his attention to the insolvent state of his affairs; but Crossthwaite still persisted that he had a sufficiency to meet all demands. On the books being balanced, however, it appealed that were he to be called on to meet all his liabilities, he would be deficient upwards of 20,0004 For the defendant, it was contended, that the trans fer was not made to the defendant for any debt, but as security f,r large sums of money which he had lent to the bankrupt, and was, in fact, in order to procure a further advance of cash, which was granted on that security. A Witness was then called to support this assrrtion; and he proved that on the transfer of these wines and title•deeds a further advance was made to the amount of about 1,1001. In reply it was contended, that no further advance had been made, and that the plaintiffs were in conse• quence entitled to recover. - The Loan CHIRP JUSTICE, in summoning up, ob served that if a man transferred his property to ano ither in preference to his others creditors in contempla tion of bankruptcy, the transaction would be a fraudu lent ore, and the remaining creditors would be entitled to recover the value of the property so transferred. The questlon in the present case would be, whether the Jury believed that the transfer of property had been made in contemplation of bankruptcy ? or whether it was not done with a view to obtain some advantage from the person to whom he had transferred it? It bad been proved that an advance of 1,1001. had been made : it was true this appeared to be a very small sum to require so great security, but by the Bankrupt Laws it appeared that any advantage, let it be ever so small, would be sufficient, and the transaction could not be considered a fraudulent one. He should leave this point for the decision of the Jury, who were raerchar•ts, and would be more capable, perhaps, of seeing into the merits of the case than he could be. The Jury consulted a aloft time, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff. The question of the amunnt of damages to be refet red. PREROGATIVE COURT, Daccaßeals. CRUELTY AND ADULTRRYo..-WRSTIARA TN wesvue, TH. This case, which came before Sir JOHN NICHOLL, on appeal from the Consistory Court, where it was decided that the Marchioness of Westmeath was not entitled to the relief hr which she prayed, now came on for argument Dr. JENI4IIII, for the respondent, was heard at great length in support of the decision of the Court below.— After taking a general review of the evidence, the Learned Counsel observed, that the testimony of the witness, Sarah Mackenzie, was particularly open to objection. This woman was the personal attendant of Lady Westmeath, and it appeared that after the commencement of the present surt.all LadyWestmeath's 'witnesses were committed to the care of this we.man.— Now the whole charge of cruelty against Lord West , nieath depended upon the testimony of this witness, and the Court would perceive that in many material points that testimony was inconsistent and contradictory. For instance, it was stated that on one occasion a quarrel took place between Lord Westmeath and his Lady, during the night, and that Sarah Mackenzie was called up by her Lady, who charged Lord Westmeath with having kicked her in the side, and struck her violently, and Locd Westmeath admitted the charge, but stat ed that Lady Westmeath had irritated him. This transaction rested entirely on the testimony of Sarah Mackenzie. None of the other servants v;ere alleged to have known any thing of the transaction.— The physician of the family (Dr. Bariow) was not con sulted, and the Court would find, that in the course of three days after the occurrence was stated to have taken place, Lady Westmeath wrote to her Lord in the most friendly and affectionate manner. Under all the cir cumstances of the case, the Learned Counsel contended that them was no proof of the cruelty charged against his Lordship, mad that as to the charge of adultery, it was completely negatived. He therefore submitted that the decision of the Court below should be confirmed. Dr. Putt.ussosa is to be beard on the same side, and Drs. LUSHINGTON and ADDAMS for her Ladyship, who is the appellant, on a future day. ' FUNERAL OF MR.
