LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT AMPS S. • SEARLE V. OOLANDER. In this case a bill had been filed by the plaintiff, Col. Searle, against the defendant, Sir William Oglander, to compel him to pay to plaintiff, without deducting the legacy duty, an annuity of 383/. se. bequeathed him by hie late brother, Mr. Searle. Mr. KNIGHT, in support of. the plaintiff's petition, stated that the testator had left big estates to the de fendant, who was his nephew, and had directed that his other legacies and certain charitable bequeath should be paid " without any deduction whatever ;".for which rea son he trusted the Court would concur with him in deeming it to have heel) the intention of the testator that the plaintiff should be 'paid his annuity without any de-' 'faction. He believed the plaintiff tad incurred the dis pleasure of the testator, which circumstance would ; in some measure, account for the preference given in his will by the testator to his nephew. His HoSew: would observe, that the. annuity settled on the plaintiff was exactly a guinea a day, a- fact which would, of itself, suggest that the testator intended that his bequest should be paid to the plaintiff without deduction. - The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, for the defendipt, con tended that the land tax and other charges of that nature were the , exemptions contemplated by the testattit, and sot the legacy duty, and that, consequently, the plaintiff was not entitled to the exemption he sought. Thb VICE-CHANCELLOR WAS of opinion that, as all the property of the testator had been left to Sir William Oglander in trust to pay certain bequests, without " any deduction," he must pay the plaintiff the annuity without substracting from it the legacy duty. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL applied for costs, which, however, the Court refused. PRACTICE OF THE COURT. The VICE-CHANCELLOR said he had intimated during the preceding week that he would on this, and every subsequent day, until the court should rise for the vaca tion, sit until five o'clock. Unless the bar attended, the causes must be struck out, as the public business could not be suffered to stand still. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the proceeding had, taken him by surprise. He was not on his own account anxious to induce his Honour to depart from the resolu tion he had come to, as he (the Solicitor-General) should in future decline bankrupt business ; but consideration for the suitors would, he trusted, induce his HonSur to pause. It was quite impossible that Counsel could at tend in the three Courts. The VICE-CHANCELLOR said ho could not help it. As there had been some misunderstanding he should, in this instance, restore the petitions that had been struck out, but would, for the future, not replace any cause struck out for non-attendance of counsel. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, the whole of the in convenience had arisen out of the making the Rolls a day court. The VICE-CitANCELLOIL—I cannot help it. THE MURDER OF MR. DOW. The Ayr Advertiser of Thursday, after quoting the account from the London Papers, of the examina tion of the person charged at B ow-street, with this murder, which took place at Ayr in 1812, says--- This statement appeared in the London papers of Sa turday, which reached Ayr on Monday night, and, from that time till the arrival of the mid-day coach yesterday, when the man alluded to in the narrative was brought here, the feelings of the people of this place were excited greatly, and those *feelings strongly manifested by the crowds surrounding the coach, every succeeding arrival. It will be observed the statement in the London papers differs from the real circumstances detailed at the time, as to dates a little, and as to the cause or motives of the murder considerably, and this difference had a tendency to throw some doubts on the probability, otherwise great, that the murderer was detected ; and this served only to augment the curiosity or excite the feelings of the people. But, just as the excitement rose to the highest, the coach arrived, and it was allayed in an in stant. A man of colour, certainly, was . on the .coach, chained by the arm to an officer of justice, with another in escort, and having all the symbols of a man lying un der a heavy charge ; but the coach was surrounded by people intimately acquainted with the person and features of Johnston, and with one voice they declared he was not the man. The sheriff, magistrates, gaoler, and consta bles, were in attendance, and the man, with the officer to whom he was coupled, was taken into the King's Anus : but without a moment's delay, the testimony of a ntlabar of gentlemen, having the very best means of knowing timately and accurately the person and features of John ston, was taken, proving decisively that there is no iden tity and little or no similarity between him and the man in custody, and in an hour after his arrival, he who lay se long under the most heinous charge, confined for such it length of time, and dragged so far to answer for it, was released from bo ndage, and was walking at large on the streets ; and the feelings of indignation against the mur derer of Mr. Dow, renewed by the circumstances just re lated, gave place to those of pity for the man having the misfortune to be taken for him. John Johnston, the murderer, was born at Cross-hill, in this county. He is the offspring of a white woman and a Mulatto, and in the language applied to that gra dation, is called a Quadroon. He served an apprentice ship on board the barque Hopewell, and was ultimately a sailor on board the barque Avon, both of this port. He will now be about 32 years of age. On the other hand, the man taken for him is called Thomaa Stevens or Ste . phens ' • he was born in Grenada, and is about 27 years of age. His father, according to his account, and there is no reason to doubt his statement, was a Manxman, of the lame of Thomas Stevens, who went to Trinidad and mar ried his mother, a Creole, having a plantation in the iaiand, and he was their only child. He, therefore, an contradistinction to Johnston, is a Mulatto. When about six years of age he was brought to the Isle of Man, where he lived with a relative of his father, *a person called " Vicar-General Stevens," and was apprenticed to a hatter in the parish of Ballaugh, sear• Ballykain. On the elapse of his apprentice ship he wrought as a journeyman, and, latterly, took up baminess for himself at Ballaugh-bridge, and had a wife and four children. In 1826, his business becoming dank, he sailed for Trinidad in the brig Lady Dawson, Dawsen,lnaster,• leaving his wife and children in the isle of Man. In Trinidad he wrought in the plantations • -of his mother, became sick, and went through a variety •of '4l4S:wings. . Teo gentlemen in Trinidad, belonging originally to the Isle of Man, came forward and made oath to the chief _.....,instance* just related, and especially that he resided • there AS. wrought as a hatter for many years up to 182(3, • ahB7'conaequently, in 1824, when the murder was cam :Bitted; but die•authorities of Trinidad found it proper to proceed teatimow of the soldiers, and, after being ior some time in prison, he was transferred from Trinidad to Barbadoes, liihere ho suffered a farther imprisonment, and latterly he was conveyed to England and from hence aither, in the manner already described. THE BOOK OF THE BOUDOIR. • Couwaa—LoNsox. Lady MORGAN, we think, is wrong, when she calcu lates that her new book " will probably escape the dis tinction of a criticism,"— for she grapples with her enemy .in her anecdote of "My Reviewers. We have nothing to do with that anecdote ; but, if the Reviewers of " Sal vator Rosa" are in the body, they are now called upon to speak out. " The Book of the Boudoir" is egotistical from beginning to end. It is a gossiping journal of many —not to say all—of the things that have come under the observation of Lady MoRGAN, from the commencement of her career " on the banks of the Bog of Allan" to her interview, in the " Mons Quirinal'," with Cardinal GONSALVI ;- -from her " first rout in Lmdon," down to the 4th of last April. To criticize such a work would be idle. Her Ladyship, in her preface, cuts short criti cism. She tells us the truth :" Its character is essen tially egotistical, and its style inevitably carelens."—.4ust so;—but it is amusing withal; and, .as we observed yes terday, it is a book, which, although it cannot possibly , add to the literary reputation of the authoress, 'must shortly find its way into the hands of the majority of the gossiping-reading public. Proceed we to our selections: LORD NELSON. - The egotism of Lord Nelson went far beyond that of any of ►is " great competitors." Not that he talked much of his feats. the " little would be have graced his tale in speaking of himself ;" bet be listened with the frankest approbation to the verse or tong that celebrated hie exploits ; assisting at kis own apotheosis with as much devotion, as any of the votarists who brought buns* to his altar. There was nothing so characttristic, or amusing, as the scenes in which !Wand Lodi Hamilton eildbited together, adoring and adored ; during that short epoch of their fashion, which policy or caprice granted them, in spite of the frailty and the vulgarity of the one, and the very obvious intellectual mediocrity of the other. The stage was generally some saloon of supreme bon-ten i the audience, the members of the exclusive circles; and the prima donna. Lady Hamilton, whose ample person teemed to dilate be fore the piano -forte, while her fine full eyes were turned languidly on the lterWof her theirs and inspiration, and she wag at the top of her Poll of Plymouth voice, the adulating ode, or the deifying avails& Meantime, the conquering hero " leased our her. enalsoured," bearing chorus, beating time, and echoing every paean, raised to his own glory by London lyrists and Neapolitan laureates. HORNE TOOK E. Horne Tooke used to tell a juvenile story to my husband (who lu bis boyhood occasionally partook of the " Diversiabs of Fur ley,") very illustrative of the narrator. Horne, when at Eton, was one day asked by the master w►y a certain verb governed a parti cular case ? he answered, " I don't know." " That'. Impossible !" said the master. " I know you are not ignorant, but obstinate." Horne, however, persisted, end the master flogged. After punish. ment, the pedagogue quoted the rule of grammar which bore on the subject, and Horne instantly replied, " I know that very well ; but you did not ask for the rule, you demanded the reason.;' Here we have the perspicuity of the mature dialeetitian, and the dogged obstinacy which would not yield a step to authority, and could purchase a victory at any expense of suffering. Opinions may change, but the man, in his leadinrcharacteristics, is at fifty what be is at fifteen. THE COUNTESS D'ALBANY. Talking of the accidents, iocidents, and odd conjunctions of tra velling, it happened, one fine autumnal morning, at Florence— (and oh, for the Tuscan autumn ! with Its " Tuscan grapes," fresh ol;ves, and autumnal lowan, which give the Tuscan capital lee pretty name)--k happened that my illousious countryman, Mr. Wart, my husband, and myself, were seated on a sofa in our old Oise in the Borge Santa Croce, looking at the cloud-rapt App.. nines, which seemed walking In at the windows,—and talking of Lord Byron, (from whose villa on the Brenta, Mr. Moore bad just arrived), when our Italian servant, Pasqua% announced " The Countess D'Albany." Here was an honour which mope bet a Florentine could appreciate! (for all personal consequence is so local)! Madame D'Albany never paid visits to private indiilduals, sever left her palace on the Arno. except for the English ambassa dor's, or the Grand Duke's. I. bad just time to whisper Mr. Moore, "The widow of the Pretender ! your legitimate Queen ! and the love of your brother poet, Alfieri; " and then came my turn to present my celebrated compatriot, with all his mush more durable titles of illustration : so down we all sat, and ' fell to dis course." I observe that great people, who have been long before the public, and feel, or fancy, they belong to posterity, generally make themselves agreeable to popular writers ; and they are right ; for what are the suffrages of a titled meet*, which can " bear but the breath and suppliance of an hour," to the good opinion of Woos whose privilege it is to confer a distinction, to awaken an interest that vibrates to the remotest corner of the known world. Kings may give patents of nobility—genius only confers patents of cele brity. One line from an eminent writer will confer a more lasting dignity, than all the Grand and Archdukes, that ever reigned from Russia to Florence, can bestow. Madame D'Albany, already lbegotten as the wife of the last of the Royal Stuarts. will Ass m long as the language of Dante lasts, in the lines of Alfieri. Iran Quotes' D'Albany could be the most agreeable woman in ' the wooed ; and, upon the occasion of this nattering visit, she was so. is could also be the most disagreeable ; for, like must great ladies, her temper was uncertain ; and her natural hauteur. when not subillnd by her brilliant bursts of good humour, was occa sionally eztremely revolting. Still she loved what is vulgarly called fun ; end no wit. or sally of humour, could offend her. We had received very early letters front London, with the account of the King's death, (George the Third) : I was stepping into the car riage, to pay Madame D'Albany a morning visit, when they ar. rived—and I had them still in my hand, an entering her library on the . - • r, where I fogad her alone, and writing. when I soddenly exclaimed, with a French theatrical air, " Grande Princesse, dont les torts tout tta people ifklore, Je virus sous l'annoncer, rUntrpsteur est azort.. " • Wiat usurper !" asked Madame d' Albany, a little surprised. and net a little amused. " Madame, l'Elecentr Al'ilansvre any de elm!" The esestsaiseplaissysterie was taken in good part ; for. truth is tell, though the Counts. D' Albany always spoke ist terms of respect and gratitude of the Royal Family, and felt (or afflicted) as absolute robin for his present Majesty, whose picture she had, she was always well pleased that others should consider herdaims to the rank of • Queen as legitimate, of which she kneel/ enter tained no doubts. She, however, affected no respect for a husband, whom, living, -he had despised for his vices, and bated foe his cruelty. CARDINAL GONSALVI. One fine Roman winter morning—(tbey very math resemble a summer's day in Ireland)—the Duchess of Devonshire called on me, and, was priansisik, announced the Cardinal Gostsalvi's desire to make my acquaintance ; but, though the Duchess did not say SS Ma. I SAW there was some little difficulty about the ' where sad the how of this introduction. The Cardinal was a Minister at &ate, aid I was (" audacious little worm!") the author of " France !" It was, therefore, rather a delicate matter for him to give me rendes-miss any where on this side the Styx. The Duchess, however, said she world let me know on the following day ; and I received the following nose, in answer to one I bad sent with an inscription on a Roman brick, which I found in the well-known excavation, made by her Grace round the column Phocas : " Mr rasa MADAM, " net .= Irishwoman ; but I admire Irish taunt sod ima.! elation. and we are certainly indebted to youi foe ambling us co l joke of Mao. I eaten she same. or Mick, with all the sights that I miebt have to it,' and am littered by the 'motel's.

(Tlutroday,) Irvin can for you a little before eleven, end for Sit Clarks also. If the Cardinal star to speak to me, I shall present you, &e. Sr.c." I forget what was the grai.d chamois celebrated on the above` mentioned day at the Quirinal ; but it was one of singular misal liance. The Duchess of Devonshire had the privikge of places devoted to the families of the Cardinals, and we commanded a full view of that splendid church, which, like the Temple of the Son. whose site it occupies, was all light, lustre. and effulgence. The central nave was thronged with the dignitaries of the church. in grand costume, abbots, priors, and monsignori— '! Black spirits and white, bine spirits and grey." IThe tribunes were filled with representatives of the beauty and fashion of Etirope, from the Niemen to the Thames. The Pope was on his throne; the Conclave sat beneath him, in vestments of eastern amplitude and splendour ; while at their feet were ranged their bumble osniteteri. The Pope pontificated ; and when the Censers had dung their odours on the air, and the lord hosannas bad ceased to peal, a procession began, which was one of the most imposing I ever beheld. The Pope, borne aloft on his moveable throne, and on the necks of his servants, appeared like some idol of Pagan worship. The members of the conclave, two by two. followed ; their trains of violet velvet, held op by the essidateei.-.• The whole spectacle passed on, and, half way down the great ves tibule which precedes the chapel, disappeared among its lofty and massive columns. The Cardinal Secretary then broke on' from the line of march, and joined us, as we stood under the shadow of a pillar. The presentation was as naceresnosthus, as the convent. lion which ensued was pleasant, and spirituel. We talked of France, and the persons we mutually knew there ; and I saw that there was a playful attewpt to draw me out on the subject of Rome and the actual order of things in Italy, more nattering than fair, and which I parried as well as I mid. Before we parted, be proposed, with great politeness ; calling on us the following day ; but, as we were lodged (as were many of our betters) en rings eimpriense, I declined the honour till after our return from Naples. Cardinal Gemsalvi conversed in French like a Parisian, and his phrases were epigrammatic and well turned. As we stood in the partial shadow of one of the great columns, with some streaks of bright light falling from a high window on the rich robes and dia mond buckles of his Eminence, I was struck by the oddity of the group. The fine figure and countenance; and magnificent costume of the Roman Cardinal—the Sybil air and look of the British Peeress, whole tall, slight fern', wrapped in a black velvet mantle, sur. 'succored by a black hat, and one sweeping feather, each as Rebate would have delighted to copy—and my own " Little Red-riding hood" appearance (as Irish as if I had never left the banks of the Liffey)—aid again, the true impersonation of all that is most English in physiognomy and MORIN! in my English husband—it was a picture to fill the of a Callot or a Caravaggio! What was most odd in all this, was the conjunction of personages so ap parently Incongruous. This could not have happened fifty years back. What effected it now ? The " march of intelket !" with its seven-league boots, like those of the Marquis of Carabas! °chow ! a little wild Irish woman to march from the banks of the Bog of Allan, to hold a colloquy sublime on the banks of the Tiber, on the Maw Quirinal., with a Raman Cardinal. That is a march with a vengeance! SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TA TTERS A LL'S.
