LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT- OF CHANCERY, Au.. 4. FAtiNTLEROY.—HUME V. HOLLAND. The' LORD CHANCELLOR stated that in this ease as .ipplication had been made to him for a new trial. The issue in it had been•tried in the Court of Common , Pleas, whether Marsh, Stracey, and Fauntleroy, at the time of theii bankruptcy, were indebted to the trustees of Colonel Billie and his family in any and what sum of money ? Fauntleroy and the two plaintiffs (Messrs Hume and Voodthild), were the trustees of Colonel Billie. He died in 1824, and afterwards his widow and children became entitled to the funds, of which those parties were trus tees. After the Colonel died, Fauntleroy made a forged power of attorney, sold out the whole of the stock, and credit was given in the books to Marsh and Co. for the dividends, as if the stock still actually existed in the names of the trustees at the banking-house. Against the ac count of the receipts of the dividends, amounting to 1,4031. payments were made from time to time that re duced it to 1,100/. and•this was the sum sought to be claimed by the-issue at the time of the bankruptcy. The Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas had stated, in his report of the trial, that the lapse of time between the trial and application eo him for his notes had been so great, that he had quite forgotten how he had left the case to the consideration of the Jury ; resort therefore had to be made to the - short-hand writer's notes for the purpose of ascertaining the fact. It appeared from this source of information, undisputed on both sides, that the Learned Judge had taken a most erroneous view of the case, and that he had left it, notwithstanding he had been corrected by the Counsel, under that most er roneous conception, to the Jury, so that they could not fail to come, as they had done, to an unsatisfactory con clusion. The Chief Justice of the Common Pleas had assumed that Fauntleroy had received the dividends from time to time, and that he was, or his firm were, to be taken as having disposed of those dividends, which was a gratuitous fiction, as in truth no stock existed on which dividends could have nor had, in point of fact, been re ceived. If a verdict at all was consequently necessary for the guidance of the Court, it was imperatively requi site that there should be a new trial. The parties then might either take an order for a new trial, or agree upon a special case ; or thirdly, if all consented to it, he (the Lord Chancellor) would dispose of the case finally in judgment without the assistance of a verdict at all. The Counsel said they would consult with their re spective clients, and let his Lordship know how they would act. JUDGMENTS. His LORDSHIP stated that he should give judgment in Chatfield v. Martin td-morrow ; Green v. Ward on Mon= day; and Strutt v. Purch on Tuesday. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. Aim 4. The VICE-CHANCELLOR heard bankrupt petitions, none of which possessed any public interest. ADMIRALTY COURT-11/mA,', Ago. 4. 1112 SNIP BUZZ 07 BRD/11/01. Sir C. ROBINSON gave judgment in this case this morning. This was a suit on a bottomry bond, and the principal question was, whether or not an owner could gi vett bottomry bond (for provisions furnished to the vessel) without the concurrence of the Master ? The Duke of Bedford left Bombay in March, 1827, hay ing a large number of passengers. The vessel, however, met with bad weather, and put into the port of Algoa, in the Cape of Good Hope, in great want of provisions. The holders of the bond, Messrs. Nesbitt and Dixon, supplied them with provisions. It appeared that the Duke of Bedford had already been mortgaged to Messrs. Cockrell, Trail, and Co. for more than its actual worth, and they now disputed its validity, on the ground that it injured their interests in having priority to their claims, and that an owner was not competent to give a bottomry bond without the Captain acquiesced in it. On the other side it was contended that by law the Captain was com petent by himself to give a bottomry bond, if he thought it requisite, without the consent of the owner, and that the owner was also possessed of the same right, without the consent of the Captain. Also, in answer to the asseveration, that the interests of the mortgagee would be injured by it, it was urged that the mortgagee had an interest in the amount of freight for passengers, which freight could not be claimed till the condition (that of taking the passengers to England) had been performed; that the passengers could not have been brought without provisions, which could not have been obtained without the bond; and that consequently the interests of the mortgagee would in equity be rather improved than in jured. The Court was of opinion, that by the principles of our own maritime law, and those eminent writers of other countries on the law of bottomry, the owner was competent to give a bond by himself, as well as the Cap tain, and that therefore the bond must be pronounced legal. With regard to the other question, whether the mortgagee was injured by the bond, it was clear that the passengers were as much a charge upon the ship as the cargo and the freightage (4,0001.), for those passengers could not have been retained if they had not been brought to England. The Court could not therefore give any priority to the mortgagees on that account. The bond was therefore pronounced legal, with costs. EXECUTION OF STACY, THE MURDERER, AT WINCHESTER. • As it was generally known in the county that Stacy the younger was to be executed on Monday, for the two murders at Portsmouth, and as it was also the day ap pointed for holding Magdalen-hill Fair, between seven and eight o'clock upwards of 10,000 persons had as sm\ibled at the back of the gaol and its neighbourhocd, to witness the completion of this part of his sentence.— Just after eight he appeared on the drop, to which he walked in a firm manner, and suffered the sentence of the law with a sulky resolution. He was quite indifferent to his fate, having dismissed tha Chaplain during the course of Sunday : yet the Chaplain appeared on the scaffold, that if he had chosen he might have received the consolations of religion. The parting of him and his father was apparently without regret or feeling on the part of either, they Oily wishing each other " Good bye." The father aaked,to be permitted to go to a cell during the execution, which was granted : yet he actu ally looked through the window and saw it. He con tinued in the same story, saying to the last that some one assisted him, but he would not tell who it was ; the evidence negatived its being his father or Downer (one of the witnesses against him), so that if this be true, his accomplice is at large, and not even suspected. Stacy has been talien to the dissecting-room at the Hos pital, as it is intended, after dissection, to make a skele ton of his bones. After shaving his head the Phrenolo gists took many casts of it ; they say the lumps on his bead are so marked that his actions certify the truth of the science. He has a short neck and very strong frame, though a small man. He was much given to brawling and fighting. and in his different rencnntres was never 'beaten. Hinauiscular powers were so great that the sur geons intend to take casts of them when his body ia in. a , fit state so to do. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—SALISBURY, Aua. 3. The Judie, arrived here from Winchester on Saturday evening, when Mr. Justice BURROUGII 'opened fie commission. There are 40 prisoners for trial, but there Is no crime of any great enormity. John Weeks and . William Weeks, fathe; and son, were indicted for having, on the 16th of December last, com mitted an assault on William Grayly and his wife, at Martin, in this county. . Mr.BARsTow stated the case to the Jury; and it ap peared in evidence that on the day mentioned in the indictment, the prosecutors, man and wife, had been roused from their beds, between one and two o'clock in the morning, by some persons thro*ing great flint stones through the windows, by which the windows and frames were destroyed. The prosecutor and his wife became much alarmed, and went to the window, crying " Mur der !" at the time believing it was the intention of the persons who were throwing the stones to murder them. On going to the window they saw the prisoners. whom they had before known, and positively identified them. An alibi was attempted to be set up, which failed, and both prisoners were found Guilty. The elder prisoner was then sentenced to be impri soned for six months, and the younger for three mouths. John Tompkins was indicted for having, on the 12th of July last, broken and entered the dwelling-house of i William Cousins, at Compton Basset, and stealing therein 37 sovereigns, four half sovereigns, 41. 10s. in silver, some old coins, and other property. Mr. BURGIIAM stated the case to the Jury. Sarah Cousins examined—l am the wife of the pro secutor; on Sunday, the 12th of July, in the afternoon, I went to Church, having first locked my house up and made all secure; there was a little box in my trunk locked up when I went to Church ; after I had been there some time I was called out, and told that my house had been broken into ; I went home, and found the win dow and frame broken to pieces, by which a person could enter; on going in I found that my trunk had been broken open, and all the money taken away. Other witnesses were called to prove the robbery; and the property having been identified, Lord Chief Justice TYNDAL summed up; and the Jury, without a moment's hesitation, found him Guilty. Death recorded. • a at mate so 1 ' NORFOLK CIRCUIT-CAMBRIDGE, Atm 5. This afternoon Mr. Baron GARaOW and Mr. Justice J. PARKE arrived in this town from Huntingdon, and proceeded to the Shire-hall to open the Commission, be fore they retired to their lodgings. We understand that their Lordships were very much affected upon receiving the intelligence of the death of Mr. Baron Hl:m.om. The business at Huntingdon was of so trivial a nature that the Court was occupied only for a short time. There was but one prisoner for trial, and his case had been sub mitted to the consideration of the previous Grand Jury; we allude to the case of Smith alias Wilhs, accused of horse-stealing. There was only one cause set down for trial at Nisi Prius, and that was an undefended action. The Criminal Calendar at this place is unusually light in a numerical point of view ; nevertheless some of the cases are said to be marked by peculiar atrocity, particu larly that of Reader and Turner, for setting fire to build ings. The following is a summary statement of the various offences with which the prisoners for trial seve rally stand charged, viz. —Arson, two ; burglary, three; sheep-stealing, three ; horse-stealing, one ; larcenies, two—Total, 11. It is supposed that considerable busi ness will be done in the Nisi Prius Court. HOME CIRCUIT.--CHELMSFORD, Ausurr 5. Thomas Slaughter, Joseph Keays, and Joseph Peek, were indicted for assaulting the Rev. Thomas Canning, Elsenhony, and violently taking from his person a gold watch, two sovereigns seven shillings, and other pro perty, on the King's highway. The prisoners pleaded not guilty. Mr. JESSOP conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. KNox appeared on behalf of the prisoners. The Rev. Mr. Canning deposed, that on Saturday, the Ist of May, he dined at a friend's house at Stansted, Mount Fitchet—it was Stansted fair-day. He left be tween nine and ten o'clock, and when he had got about three quarters of a mile from the fair ground, three men passed him on the road—he passed them soon after, and in a few minutes he was seized by one of them, who passed his hand over witness's eyes, and he was pulled down on his back. The Rev. Gentleman struggled to get up, but another man threw himself across witness's legs, whilst the third rifled his pockets. They then went away, and he followed them some paces, until one of the robbers turned round and said, " You had better not fol low us," at the same time pres e ntin g w h a t h e (M r . Can ning) believed to be a pistol. It was too dark to discern the features of the men. Thomas Wright, labourer, was at Dunmow fair on the 6th of May ; saw the prisoners in the Flitch of Bacon public-house ; heard them talk about a watch, which they offered to sell him for 6/.; they said it was a gold watch; witness said he could help them to a customer next day ; having heard of Mr. Canning's robbery, he suspected them, and communicated his suspicions to a man named Harris, who went along with witness next morning to a place called the Green Hills, where Slaughter produced the watch out of a ditch ; Harris said he thought it was brass, and refused to buy it, in order to lull the prisoners' suspicions. Witness got possession of the watch, and gave it to a constable, who took the prisoners into cus tody. Peek was not present when the watch was given to witness. The Rev. Mr. Canning identified the watch. The prisoners, Slaughter and Keays, called no wit nesses ; but Peek called two women, his mother and an other, who swore that he was on the fair ground when the robbery was committed. Mr. Justice PA AK E sununed up the evidence, and the jury found Slaughter and Keays Guilty, and acquitted Peek.—Sentence of Death was recorded against them. BULLOCK V. ALLEN. Mr. LAW stated that this was an action to recover a compensation in damages for the injury sustaned by the plaintiff in consequence of the seduction► of his daughter. He called upon the jury, when they should have heard the evidence, to give such damages as the nature of the case required, reminding them that those who had no other honourable feelings, were often tremblingly alive to a diminution of income.—Damages 401. The following is a summary statement of the various offences with which the prisoners stand charged, viz.— Arson, two ; burglary, three ; sheep-stealing, three ; horse-stealing, one ; larcenies, two—Total 11.

Cowes, August. 3.—The first day's Regatta of the Royal Yacht Club. though rather wet, had what all were so anxious about fine breeze frotn the W. S.W. The schooner yacht Isussar, of T. P. Williams, Esq. was selected by the Marquis of Anglesey and Lord Yarborough, the Stewards, as the starting vessel. The three yachts were placed in a north and south line. The Menai, T. A. Smith, Esq. which had the southern station, had considerable advantage over Joseph Wild, Esq.'s Lul weak and the Vice-Commodore Earl of Belfast's Louisa, particu larly the latter, which was not only farther to leeward, but exposed to a much greater strength of counter-tide. At ten o'clock, the start ing signal was given, and the yachts proceeded to the westward ; the Louisa, to the astonishment of every one, rounding the station vessel off Gurnet, a distance of only four miles, foul' minutes before the Menai, and seven minutes before the Lulworth. Unfortunately foe the Louisa, in gibbing round the station vessel, she carried away her gaff, and passed through Cowes Roads under foresail and jib only, in which state she ran half an hour before she could re-set her main sail and gaff topsail. In the then space of three hours sixteen minutes five seconds, Menai went round the course, a distance of thirty-nine miles, and passed the umpire's station at one hoer six teen minutes five seconds. Louisa, notwithstanding her crippled state, arrived at one hoar nineteen minutes fifty-five seconds; and Luiworth at one hour twenty-three minutes forty seconds.— Thus has T. A. Smith, Esquire, won the first Cup given by the Club this season. Vessels entered to sail for the second Cup on Wednesday are,—the Peri, D. Murray, Esq. fifty-nine tens; Hebe, A. Corbett Rsq. sixty-eight tons; Harriet, Walker Heneage, 60 tons ; Emerald, J. L. Symonds, Esq. 58 tons • Eli zabeth, John 3loore, Esq. 65 tons ; and Dolphin. J. Leveson Gower; Esq. 58 tons. Vessels entered to sail on Friday for the third Cup are, Eliza, Captain Thomas Garth, R.N. 34 tons; Turk, Captain James Kean, R.N. 44 tons; Neuha, James Saunderson, Esq; 44 tons • Julia, John Mills, Esq. 42 tons; and the Elizabeth, Earl of Darnley, 42 tons. The matches for the other four Cups are not yet complete, the time for entry being still open. THE URSULINE CONVENT AT LIFFORD. ENNIS, Jots 49. A great deal of anxiety was manifested here this day, to witness the ceremony of the reception of two nuns into the Ursuline Convent at Lifford, near this town. About ten o'clock the Chapel, which was tastefully fitted up for the occasion, was crowded with ladies and gentlemen of all persuasions, and so great was the interest to be present on the occasion, that the admission was regulated by tickets. At eleven o'clock the Right Rev. Dr. Macma hon, the Catholic Bishop of the diocese, dressed in full pontificals, attended by about twenty of his Clergy, en tered the Chapel, the nuns conducted the novices, in the most splendid and fashionable attire, to the front of the altar. The following hymn was then sung by the Bishop and his Clergy, assisted by the nuns and the choir : 0 gloriosa Virginum, Sublimls inter alders, Qal to ereavit parvulum Laetante nutria übere. Quod Eva tristis abstulit, Tu reddia alma termini; Intrent ut astra•Sebiles, Cali reeludis eardines. In Regis alti janus, Et ails lads Nitride ; Vitant datam per Virginem Gents redempta plaudits. Jam, tibi tit gloria, Qui uatus es de Virgins, Cam PATILZ, et alma Braun, In sempitema uremia. After the hymn had been sung, the Rev. Charles Fahey, P.P. of Tulla, preached a sermon, and took his text front the 12th chapter of Genesis -" Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father's house, and come into the land which I shall show thee." The Rev. Gentleman confined the subject of a long and impressive discourse to the difference between a temporal and spiritual inheritance, dwelling on the folly, the un certainty, the variety and frivolity of all earthly concerns, when compared with the wisdom, the certainty, the secu rity and happiness of an eternal life. After the ceremony the superioress raised the two pos tulants, Misses Quirk and Gubbins, two beautiful and interesting young ladies, when the Bishop approached them and said— " My children, what do you demand ?"—" the mercy of GOD, the holy habit of religion, the charity of the Order, and the society of the mothers and sisters."— " Is it with your free will and consent that ycu demand the habit of religion ?"—" Yes, my Lord."—" My dear children, have you a firm intention to persevere in re ligion to the end of your lives ; and do you think you have sufficient strength to bear constantly the sweet yoke of our LORD JESUS Cr awl', for the love and fear of Gov alone ?" " Relying on the mercy of Go n, l and on the prayers of the mothers and sisters, we hope to be akle to do so." The novices then arose and retired with the superioress to a place where they changed their secular dresses for the religious habit, when the 113th Psalm was sun , - by the choir, during which time their clothes and veil had been blessed and sprinkled with holy water. Shortly after the novices returned, bearing in their hands their' ' robes and wax candles. The novices, after some prayers' had been said, are raised from a kneeling posture by the nuns, by whom they are invested by the habit of the Order. After the repetition of sorOo other prayers, the novices received the clo a k s or man tl e o f th e i r Order. As soon as the novices were clothed, they made a bow to the superioress, then a genuflexion to the Sacrament, ' and next placed themselves upon their knees. They were then handed wax candles, which they held while some prayers were repeated. The novices then retired a few paces, when the candles were taken from them, when they prostrated themselves, while the Clergy, the nuns, and the choir sung Veni CREATOR Spiritu, &c. As soon as the hymn had been concluded, the novices were raised from their prostrate situation; they embraced the nuns, with whom they retired from the chapel. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday a smartly dressed young woman named Sophi e c„ )) .. was brought up on a warram signed by a Dublin Magiste a t e : o Z charge of having plundered her late master, Mr. Daisy, th e l em " . lord of a public-house in Cuif-street, Dublin. of batik notes and cash to a considerable amount. It appeared that the prisoner had been for some years a *m aw to Mr. Mercy, and bad conductAl herself with great propri ety; but a short time ago a private soldier in the Coldstreaa Guard a. named Richardson, on a visit to his friends in Dublin, chanced to' stop for a few nights at Mr. Defftey's, and an intimate acquain t . ance was formed between the Guardsman and the fair bar.tnaie . Richardson returned to London to his duty, and the prisoner k a very short time abiconded from her master's house, and hom e . Alately after her,departnre about 901. in bank notes and gold wer e missed by her Master. It was ascertained that she had embark e d • by a steamer for London ; a pollee-officer, named Ross, was len t off in pursuit of her, and arrived in Landon on Monday eveni ng. The Dublin warrant was backed by Sir MGM/11W Blame, and ye a . Iterday morning Ross and an officer of this establishment went to the Tower, where Richardson was on duty, and there found the prisoner sitting.in friendly converse with him. The officers went to a temporary lodging which she had taken, and there found a quantity of wearing apparel belonging to Mrs. Matey, which t h e prisoner had brOught away with her from Dublin. The prisoner had nothing to offer in defence ; and was sent to Dublin to take her trial.

Two ill-looking women, named liodga and Brags, living i s Ann-stroet, Spearlds ' were charged with having cruelly ab ase d ' child two years old. The woman Hodges was the mother, and r t . craved 2s: per week from the parish of Henley, the child Moe illegitimate. . One of the witnesses was a female lodger, who discovered the little sufferer stark naked in a privy ; she immediately gave infix. nation to the parochial authorities, who, with prompt humanity proceeded to the house, and found that a girl named Mary Leader bad, by order of the prisoner Brooks, immersed the infant in a tub of cold water, and was scrubbing its back, covered with sores, with cinders. When removed to the workhouse and examined, it was found in a most filthy condition, and nearly dead for want of food. The child when brought in was a piteous sight, and excited a feel. ing of general indignation, being in the law stage of emaciatim. Whets 9uestioried as to a wound in its hand, it stated that it bad been done by iti aant" . (mesniog the woman Brooks), with a fork. The Magistrate, Mr. Laing, ordered the child to be properly taken care Of, remarking, that it did not appear likely to trouble the party long, and directed the woman to find proper securities to answer the charge at the ensuing Sessions. MARY-LA-BONNE. Yesterday a youth, named !dela:lnt Clarke, who Is an apprentice to Mr. Farrar, a baker, residing in Oxford-market, was charged on suspicion of setting fire to his master's house. On the morning of Thursday last, between one and two o'clock, Mr. Farrar's female servant awoke her master, and said the house was on fire ; flute was a great deal of smoke in the house. Mr. Farrar went to die bakehouse, and found the prisoner and another apprentice, named Houghton, asleep in the dough tub, and under the stairs some shavings, a chair, a tub, and other articles were on fi re ; water was procured an d the fire was extinguished. The only suspicion against the prisoner was, that when he and the other apprentice retired to rest, be requested that the candle might not be put out, and during the preceding week the prisoner had asked his fellow apprentice something about a recent fire in Cavendish-square, and inquired which was the best way to set a house on fire? The pri soner and his master had recently quarrelled ; and the former de elated that he was innocent of the crime imputed to him. He was remanded. WORSHIP-STREET. _ _ _ Yesterday Mr. Clark: a coach nsauerTappes red with Ms atm ney. Mr. Burgess, to answer to an information laid against him by Byers, for carrying seven outside passengers.

The officers informed the Magistrate that the prisoner was a well-known utterer of forged notes, and that, were be remanded, they should be able to procure several cases against him. his fa vours having been dispensed pretty generally, but more especially among publicans ; Mr. Swasev, therefore, ordered the prisoner to be remanded till Thursday next (to-morrow), to give the officers further time for procuring fresh evidence. THAMES POLICE. Yesterday John Ryan, a cooper in the West India Docks, was charged with striking a fellow workman with an adze, on the dde of the head. The assault was proved to be of the most outrageous description, and it was providential the man was not killed.

A fire broke out last night in a stable-yard, in Great Queen-street, which entirely destroyed the whole of the stables, together with Messrs. Robinson and Bon's cabinet workshops.
