LAW COURT OF CHANCERY, Jas. lb ws:a-may v. Don or saaoroar. Towards the rising of the Cools, Mr. HART rose and begged that his Lordship would name a day for the de cision of this cause. The Loan Cu A WCILLOrt said, that he was quite ready' to hear Counsel immediately after the Seal, if they thought proper to make any farther observations in the, ,cause; if they did not wish to be heard again, the mat-1 `ter would then be entirely left to him (the Lord Chan., tellor), and it should receive his immediate attention. — His Lordship observed that the papers in this cause had accumulated to such a mass, that he could not carry them across the Hall. Mr. Ha ay.—And that mass will be twice u great, if your Lard. Mip sitters the came to go on in the manner In which it has Irma hitherto conducted. The LORD Cicasicauna said, that he was lot disposed to do any thing that ought not to be throe. If, however, the porde* saw oc casion to fi le other affidavits, nothing should prevent hint from taking them into coestaisratiois. At this moment his Lordship's Secretary handed him op a bon- dle of papers. The Loan CHANCILLOR, after looking at them, asked how it was possible for him to give judgment under such circumstances as these? here were affidavits in the cause which were now for the first time handed up to , him. His Lordship said that a Judge was not properly treated, when he was constantly fed with evidence, and desired and pressed, to give his judgment before he bad 'had an opportunity of reading that evidence. Mr. HART begged that he might not be misunder stood. He was quite sure of the disposition of the Court to do the most ample justice to all parties: all :that he complained of was the conduct of the opposite) party. His Lordship had fixed a certain day beyond :which no more affidavits were to be filed; that day was the 20th of December. Now there had been no less than mindsets affidavits filed since that period—filed, he must say contrary to the express injunction of his Lordship. The LORD CUANCIILLOR said, that when the affidavits had been sent to him, he put it down in writing, that, unless he gave special leave, no further affidavits should s• nt in. The answer which he received was, that the wher party knew of the filing pf these affidavits. His Lordship would repeat, that in the case of infants who could not take care of themselves, he would tail •or all such information as he thought necessary. Let what would be said, he would have justice done accord ing to his own notions. Who, " continued his Lord hip, "who has dared to publis h chase letters, and those 'affidavits, while the matter was pending here?' Mr. Hake—Really, my Lord, I do not know. Mr. SmanwaLL—Tkat publication did not come from ukaityLord. The Lotto CNANCILL'NR said that he would leave the matter in this state—let Counsel tell him ou Monday, if they &mended to make any observations upon the affi davits; they must communicate with each other, and let him have their determination on Monday. His - • e• ILordship said, that this had been the must painful part [ f his judicial duties. He had read the papers in this ..:ause and forgotten them, and read them over again ; ,to one ought to be more anxious than himself to get th►, ugh the business. His Lordship thanked G D that .his was a case which might be carried to the House of Lords, and he hoped it would be carried there. COURT OF KING'S BRNCH, Jas. VIII TRUSTIES =I mouse =ISM V. 7AYNI•I.II ASOTIIES. The ATTORNEY GIP:UAL stated the case to the Jury. 'this was an action brought by the Trustees of ne zsntrsir Museum, against the defenckints, eminent booksellers, residing to Pall- Mall, for the recovery of 1431. 12, the amount of the penalty incurred by them by a coPtrAvention i.f the Act of Parliament, passed -in the 55 h Geo. HI. entitle) the " Copyright Act," • hisli provided that every work published in the United Ktng.t m should be entered in the Register of the Stationers' Company. at Stationers' Hall, and eleven 7optes of the same presented to the different cor gorate hiesaty establishments of this -country. This .kct, as was t .enerally known, had for its object the pre 'cotton of the sale of pirated copies and cheap editions of E ., glish books, which, prior to the passing of this Act, had so multiplied (chiefly the productions of Scot la..d and Ireland), as to injure the interest both of uthois and booksellers; in the present case, the defend ants hid neither entered the wotk in question at Sta. tin: cis 1-1.11, nor had they presented copies to the Literary Institutions. The stork was a most important one, and the production of the late Ur. Sibthorpe, Regius Professor of Botany to the University of Word, a most learned man. It was well known under the title of " Flora Grace," and was published by the defendants, And tie expense of such publication defrayed by a sum of money Is It by the Doctor for that par pose.Ti.e publishers of this wen k had refused a copy to the British Museum. It was well known that free access was allowed to all out` ors to consult .he invaluable treasures contained iu the mu s eum, and without such advantages it would be ienposib.e for any good compilation, especially on subjects similar to the work in question, to be made. The Learned Counsel concluded a very long and ela borate speech, by expressing his reliance on the nature of the verdict that the Jury would this day pass. Rev. Henry Harvey Baber, a librarian in the British Museum, remembered having made application for copies of the numbers of the "Flora Gresea," ter Messrs. Payne and Foss, booksellers and publishers. On this occasion he saw Mr. Foss, who told him that the nom r bees were twelve guineas each—number nine seas just published. The ninth number was subsequently seat to the Museum, with a bill. Cron-examined by Mr. antacarr—Did not know that the work was originally published by subscription. Did not know the'Unia versity of Word were the publishers of the work in location. Mr. SCARLETT addressed the Jury for the defendants et considerable length. The Learned Counsel main tained, that the Act in question could not apply to works similar to the one in question, but mast inevit ably serve to preclude the possibility of any such being published, were it enforced. The fact was, that the defendants were not the publishers, the University of Oxford were the publishers; and such was the expense ot the wink, that up to 1825, all the money from sub scribers, and the legacies, &c. left by the Doctor, did .tot amount to mote than 5,5751. whereas the cost to the publishers was 9,2581. that every part sold was a loss lif eight guineas to the University. The number of subscribers was twenty-seven, amongst whom were she Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. lithe pre sent action were maintained, it would be impossible that the stork could ever be completed, as the necessity of printing eleven additional copies would augment the expense to such a degree, that no one would be war ranted in . publishing it. After considerable discussion, the Jury founds verdict, under the Menke of the Judge, for the defendants% aillest to a stocial ease. NAIIIISLIT O. 11111JUIC. This action was Mr. ifandsley, an engi.l arliftftiot*w4 an xed on the premises cf the. Company at Mitehant, in Surrey. Mr. SCA RLYTT, in stating the case to the Jury, said the defendant u as a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army.— The Company had a body of cavalry to carry about their linen, and had no doubt found it necessary to have a cavalry officer. He should prove that Colonel Le Blanc acted as one of the Directors, and that when the plaintiff's demand was made, the conductors of the concern requested time to pay it. The Secretary, Mr. Buxton, wrote a letter to the plaintiff in the following terms In behalf of the Directors of the Patent Steam Washing Company, I em to express their regret that they should have been so much disappointed in re ceiving money from stsareholders, at the same time they hope to be able to settle your account. It is requested' further time may be allowed, kc." Mr. Scarlett con cluded by calling his witnesses. Robert Young, clerk to the plaintiff Mr. Maurlsley,, said the plaintiff supplied a quantity of machinery for the Patent Steam Company, at their works at Mitcham, ' Surrey. The whole amount of machinery supplied, was 29731. 17ss 6J. A bill for that amount was sent in to the Company. Benjamin Easton, proved the delivery of a notice on the plaintiff's attorney, to produce a deed of articles of partnership, for the formation of the Patent Steam Company, of which the defendant was a partner; also a letter from Mr. Charles Fry to the plaintiff, for the com pletion of machinery. Mr. Young reexamined—lle delivered the bill of the plaintiff sem 17s. 6d. for an hydraulic pump. There was a further de mand otaaf. The witnesses made repeated applications at the office of the defendants in Stamfora-streer, for payment. On those occasions he had seen Mr—Boron, the Secre. tary, and Colonel Le Blanc. No objection was made to the amount of the bill. The reason for not paying was want of money. The answer given was on the day Col. Le Blanc was there, was an excuse for rit.t paying the money, and a request that Mr. Mausisley would wait. The witness bel.eved a letter produced to be in the hand-writing of Mr. Buxton. One or two other witnesses were examined, and Mr. PA hit Ell, on the part of the defendant, Col. Le Blanc, contended that no case had been made to fix liabi lity on his client. All the proof was, that Col. Le Blanc acted as a Director ; but to make hitb liable as a partner, it must be proved that a deed of Copartnerskp has been executed. A prospectus was published by this Company, inviting the public to purchase shares. There was no evidence that credit was given to Col. Le Blanc. In point of law it was necessary there should be a deed of partnership. Judge Berxxv—l take it for granted Mr. Le Blanc would net have continued to attend from time to time as a director, if he bad not considered himself as a partner. Mr. l'aiax resumed, and his Lordship having charged the Jury, they gave a verdict for the plaintiff. HOUGHTON AND BISHOP. A few days previous to that on which these young men were to have suffered death. an interview took place between them and their • prosecutor, Mr. Henry Fuller, to whom they addressed a letter for that pur. pose. In compliance with their request, Mr. Fuller, accompanied by a friend, repaited to the prison, and tire desired interview took place in the presence of Mr. Wontner, Mr. Cotton, the Ordinary, and the Usk der Sheriff. Bishop put several questions to Mr. Fuller, with a view to ascertain the grounds of his belief than he (Bishop) was one of those by whom he bad been robbed. Mr. F,,iler's replies were in confirma tion of his former evidlnce, on which Bishop said, " I have no further questions to ask. As lam a dying . man, 1 am innocent ; I know you are mis taken.' Houghton then came forward, and put a series pof questions to his prosecutor, who in the end pledged himself that if a doubt could be raised, it shou4l be employed for his preservation, and also for that of Bishop. The convicts then slrok hands with Mr. Fuller, who, in bidding them farewell, assured them that he would spare neither time nor expense in Onctiog out evi dence in their favonr. • The desperation of the wretched roan White contrasted strongly with the calmness of dgmeanour with which these youths, neither of them more than 18, wrre prepared to meet their fate. Mr. Twytord, the committing Magistrate, was unremitting in hiy at- Amnion to the case durius the last week, and on Monday, the exe cution of the you.ig men was respited during hip Majesty's &mitre. CAlTHNess.—The Lords of the Treasury have ex tended the Coast Guard Service to the port of Thurso; and an establishment of considerable extent is to be placed at Freswick s near the mouth of the Pentland Frith. Ina provincial Paper WAS lately announced the mar• riage of Mr. CAR to Miss Hooke. This union prove, the truth of the old adage, that DAG ?fn frother,flock (gather. A private letter tiiiru - a passenger by the HAI-tie!, Wilson, dated Port Louis, Isle of France, August 20, 1826, states, that, after encountering very boiste r ous weather, in lat. SO IsT. long SO W. they descried a vessel, with a signal of distress, and that having borne down upon her, and hailed her. she proved to be the brig Mariner, from London, bound to the Cape of Good Hope, with loss of rudder, bulwarks, stem and stern post loose. and otherwise in a sinking state. When boarded by the first Officer and several seamen of the Harriet, which was effected at the imminent danger of their lives, the sea running very high ' and cross, they found the crew exhausted with fatigue, having for some time considered their situation as hopeless. There being no chance of saving the vessel, as the leak was increasing , very rapidly, no time was lost in removing the crew on board the Harriet, which was effected without any ac cident. The Harriet being prevented from making the Cape, owing to t'.e continued gales from the S.E. bore away for the Isle of France,which they reached in safety. The same letter mentions the death of Captain Wilson, of the Harriet, who was taken ill at sea, and died on the Gth of August ; the command of the vessel consequently devolved on the chief Officer (Mr. Guthrie). The Harriet was to leave Port Louis on the 22c1 of August. By the of f icial returns, published. by order of the House of Commons, it appears that the amount of duty paid on Sea Policy Stamps, for the half year ending sth of Juty, 1826, in England. has fallen off considerably. The total amount received in the year ending 1825, for Sea Policy Stamps, was 228,0831. 16s. 10d. that fur the year ending the Sth el January, 1826, 21124631. 11.. 6d. while the amount re ceived up to the Sch July, 1826 (the half year uniformly the most prolific) was only 101,2161 : 161. making a deficiency of not less than 40,8544 Is. 3d. as compared with the bait of the whole amount received in 1896, and 13,6734 26. fad. compared with the receipts bf the year 1825 up to the sante period.

A portion nf the property also was found upon the person of each of the prisoners.

The Learned Jtioca immediately proceeded to pass upon them the awful sentence of the law, in the course of which he was most sensibly affected, and conjured them, with mach solemnity, to entertain no hopes of mercy on this side of the grave. THE DUKE OF SUSSEX'S LIBRARY. It is generally known that the Duke of Sussex pos. seises, at Kensington Palace, the most extensi►e and valuable itbrat y owned by au individual, illustrative of and connected with Holy Writ. These stores ate in some degree about tote made more 6enerally known, by a work, the first volume of which as in a very for ward state—namely, " A Catalogue of the singularly rate and valuable Collection of MSS. and Books con tained in the Library of the Duke of Sussex, at Ken sington Palace." The catalogue is a classed one, and to each book is attached its peculiar history, elucidated by" bioAraphical sketches of the authors, editors, &c. en• gaged its the publication. It is prepared by Mr. Petti grew, she Duke of Sussex's Librarian. There are various ettar•atrings atid fac-similes of the MSS. and wctnks noticed, executed by Cruikshank and others. The first part of the first volume is devoted to the description of the Theological MSS. of which there are nearly 300, and chiefly of the twelfth, thirteenth, tout teenth, and fifteenth centuries, though someof them are as early as the tenth. These manuscripts are in va rious languages—Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Fr ench i ttalian, Spanish, German, Dutch, English, Irish, Atabic, Per sian, Armenian, Pali, Singhalese, and Burman.—The Hebrew MSS. art forty-four in number, and some of them ate of eiceeding value. The Pentateuchs on Afri can and Basil skins are, from the description, on which the utmost reliance may be placed, decidedly the finest in the county. One of them measures 144 feet in lengthd sventy-th fee inches in bt eadth,consists of seventy.. nine skins, and is arranged in two hundred and sixty three columns, each of which bas forty two lines. The History of the Hebrew MSS. is a curious narrative re specting the Hebiew MSS. of the Bible, of the manner directed to be written, and of the rules laid down by the Jews with resrect to their manuscripts, by which the integrity of the text may be preserved. The cha racter of the Hebrew MSS. is arranged under the diesi sions of Spanish, Italian, and German; the former of which is designated as the most beandfuL In the collection, these are two complete Hebrew MSS. of the Bible, one of the 13. h, the other of the 15th century, the latter with illuminations. There ate also three Pentateuchsr various Commentaries and Rabbini. cal aai Cabalistic works. There is a Pentateuch of the 13th century in Hebrew aad Chaldee, accompanied by illuminations of an exceedingly curious Flambe, and of which fine 14c-similes (by 6. Cruikshank) are given.— All the terms peculiar to MSS. are also detailed and ex plained. As a specimen of Cabalistic controversy, the following is given. as a literal translation of the begin. ning of the first part of Genesis, which commences with the word Bereshith, the first letter of which is Beth, and which, in a numerical sense, corresponds to the number 21 " AU the letters, being twenty-two in number, rose and presented themselves in the presence of the Holy Geo (blessed be He!), ' each Odom soliciting that the law might bogie with their letter.
