In the past meeting 50 matches, &c. were mad*, of whkh 37 were run, one of them being deed heat; the matchesaimit amounted to , and were to the value of between 5e6.000 and £7,000. In the deciding of them and a vast number of other Ibd more important races (many of which have been exceedingly difficult to adjudge) then has beettmore than ordinary talent exerci.ed. and it must be gratifying to Mr. Clarke to know. that his impartial conduct on all occasions has received the approbation of the highest Members of the Turf. A match has been made for the Spring Meeting next year, which is likely to create more interest in the Sporting World than any other since the famous one between - 51r.

In the year 1825, %heir the shares in Joint Stock Company s formed an almost universal article of specu lation, a Mr. Robertson became the proprietor of a con— •iderable number of shares in the Brit,ish Rock and Patent ,Salt Company., and the plaintiff had also put. chased several shares in the same company. The value of the shares was su Idenly very mach reduced by the same events which io ltikS destroyed other Joint Stock Companies entirely ; but Mr. Robertson being impressed with a belief that, after a little time, the price of the shares would rise again, and with a view-to prevent any further decrease, determined to purchase' still more shares. He applied to the plaintiffto help him in the advance of capital shich was n cessary to complete his plan. and the plaintiff, feeling a common inhere. , with him in the success of the .susjettaking, agreed to lend him 'he money he requited. A sum of 12.70 1. was then raised by means of five bills for 2,00 W. and j one b ll for 2,700 drawn by Robertson, and accept-:d by thy .plaint i ff.. The defendants were requested to discount them bills, which they consented to do. on having 2 000 shares deposited in their hand., as a •etsirieffbi-that anionnt, as well as for 3.0J01. which .Mr. Rotten:ion owed to them on another account.-- When the bilk Wien* due they were not paid. Pro. ceedings were instituted by the defendants, to avert ...kith the plaintiff filed a bill. and, prayed for an in junctivn that the defendants might be restrained at law. The injunction Was grasted, on the terms of the plaintiff bring'ng iato Court a sum of 19,':00/, and that sum she defendants now applied to have paid out to them.— With a view to se: tle this part of the question, and with. out piejelice to any ulterior' proceedings, he offered now, if the other side would consent to the payment of the 13,0001. that the shares should be placed in the cus tody of the Officer of the Court, and that the attach *sent issued against the plaintiff should be withdrawn. Mr. HaXt.n stid he had no objection to accede to this proposition, because it would include the object his client had moss hs view- . —via. the sale of the shares at a time when they must be soleto a disadvantage. The order was therefore pronounced accord ugly. IN Si HAMILTON. Mr. Coc applied, under the provision of t':e Aet of he 53d of Ge0..111, c. 127, " for the regulating of Ec lelesiastical Courts in England," that a writ de mita 'ace capleado might be issued under - the seal of the Court of Chancery, in aid of the process of a spiritual 'court. It was stated that a - suit had been Mat:Mud be tween Major Hamilton, by whoa the present applies boas was made, and his wife, in the Consistorial Court of the diocess of Gloucester, for a separation. In the course of the proceeding, Mrs: Hamilton applied to the Court for alimony, stitch was decreed to her. Her, husband, however, insisted that he was entitled to-de duct from the allowance made by the Court. certain 'ums which be had paid to his wife pending the suit. The Consistosiol Court decreed ageism him. whet ',spoo l Nigod so appeal to the Court of Arches. An inhi-n , %inn was then issued by th e l a tt er C o u r t, re s t ra i n i ng the further proceedings of the Cam t below; but before ;hat process could Le served, Major Hamilton had been brde~edby a monition from the Court if the Consistory 'to pay the whole amount of the alimony. The writ de ecodumace cdpiendo was now, therefore, applied for, tube directed to the Sheriff, for taking the person of hlis. Hamilton, in resrect of her contumacy to the or der of the Coutt of Arches. • The CORD CHANCILLOR asked if notice had been given of this application? Mr. Coa said, the Lady against whom the writ was aiiPliedfor was now residing at Tours. The LORD CHANCILLOR then decided that notice should be served upbn her Solicitor, and be deemed good service. • VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 5.
