IP • s . LAW INTELLIGENCE. • COURT OF JUNO'S BENCH, hit. 20. • THI KING v: PETER JONES . Mr. Baotionau opposed a rule calling on Mr. Peter., Jones, an inhabitant of Chester, to show cause will a criminal information should not be filed against him for insulting conduct,. and Liters tending to provoke Mr. Charles Murrell, a Magistrate of Chester, to commit a breach of the peace. The Application was mide by Mr. F. Pollock lest Term, upon the affidavit of Mr. Murrell, which stated that a notice having been sent to Mr. Jones, requesting him not to sport on the lands of several persons upon which he had trespassed, Mr. Jones wrote to Mr. M. letters of a most indecent character. . The COURT granted a rule to show cause. Mr. Bnonoseass now read the affidavit of Mr. Jones, who denied sending the letter. With respect to other insults and strong language, the deponent • stated that he was met by Mr. Murrell, on the 27th of Aug. 1824, at the Cross, at Chester, when Murrell sho k his stick' over him, saying...." Jones, I sent you notice ant to shoot on the lands of others, and I'll be d—d if I do not make an example of you." Janes told him he had sent a letter denying the fact ; and he said in reply. that Janes had been seen shooting, and that he had killed more of Lord Grosvenor's game than any other poacher. The deponent ,denied the truth of the last as section, and asserted that he had never shot upon Lord Grosvenor's land with any individual but Lord Bel gr, ye. The Learned Counsel had several affidavits, stating that Mr. Murrell had repeatedly abused Mr. Jones when he was not present. • • Lord TENTRIIDEN—If there was any power to binJ over both these Gentlemen to their good .behaviour, it would not be amiss. Mr. BROUGHAM—Bind over a Magistrate! The affidavit then went on to say Mr. Murrell had jpnken ill of Mr. Jones at the Albion New KO' ms, in Chester. The Mayor cf Chester described Mr. Jones tti be a quiet respectable man. r..Betouon AM submitted, upon .all the facts on both sisle...thet Mr. Murrell had not brought himself within tl e rule 'which regulated the Court in wanting .crimi• na; iofprroations. The applicant was not.without blame in the transaction. If he had misconducted himself after the insulting language,. the Court would not grant an ivformati .n. In the case of a libel on Mr.Kendi WE, a Magistr te, the rule for a criminal information was discharged, in consequence of a publication having Van made by Mr. Kendrick in a newspaper. Mr. F. PoLcocet, in support of the rule, said the Court would decide whether this was a case for a cri .. minal information ? It a. penes' to him to .be a case which called tin its inre fetence. Lord TENTEUDEN said the parties might have settled this dispute a long time ago. The Court could not grail ao it f rm •tion and the rule must be discharged Without costs.— Rule discharged accordingly. TX PARTE TATMAN. Mr. DENMAN moved lire a rule to show cause why a SubenissiOt• t r arbitration should not be matte a rule of Cout. The apelicroti-n was mad •in behalf of a Gen _...tlerrian who, transacted business dining, the East Bet . f ,ed Election, when Si, Mealy Wiisetes 191$ Candidate ] for that Borough. In 1826, a Petition was rekented i ;. to the H:use of Commons ter setting .aside the elaction, rend the attorney's bills ittnonnted to not less Ave 2.0001. Af.Pli.cafion was made to Sir H. Wilson for payment, but without effect. Sir Henry Isla : red the .. j ..Matite4 to Leighton and Scott, and in May, last an arbi. ~trietion bond was drawn tin. After several arbitrators ha 4 peen named, some (IN ction was wage by Sir H. Wilson ; but, alter an examination, a balance of 1 6001. WAS left f n .Mr. l'atman. S r H. Wilson then offered and rut an end to 11,e arbitration. Mr. Denman 6 • object was . to make the arbitration balding, by obtain , ,inF the authority rf the Court. Mr. Justue BATLRT-11.rb this arbitration deed betel executed ? Mr. DUMAN- - Nu ;the .Act of PArliElbeat does not .. require that. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—IS it ant signed by Sir Henry Wilson ? Mr. DOMAN—No; but it is done with his authority.' He IsAd a case vaich lie con,idered favourable to the view he took of a e obligation. Lord TIENTERDEN.--It is quite impossible to comply with your motior, nle,s the parties bad signed the deed. refuied. TRSTERIEN V. HART. ° This was an action of ejectment to obtain possession of certain minims at liedlotd, in wlich a verdict had &en found for the plaintiff, Mr. PLATT now moved fora new trial, or an order to stay proceedings till an ace ton of replevin, now pend ing, had been tiled, on the ground that tl.e defendant waS taken by sup ise at the trial by the production of evidence on that occasi , o, which the plaint ff could hate had no reasonable expectation or opportinoil of being able to refute or explain. The Coottr graded a rule to show cause why the A proceeding, should not be stayed, until after the liltl of replevin had been decided. MKTROPOLITAN It'AD ACT. The SOLICITOR GENERAL W•S heard at great length .in support of an application ter a mandamus which had been applied for, c4.ing upon the Commissioners of the • •iletropolitan Road Act to show cause why they refused to light and watch certain Roads situate in or near the parish of Pancras. He contended that it was riot op tionalon the part cf the Commissioners, but that cer tain clauses in the new Act made it in perative them to light and watch the roads which vele the :object of of this application, and that they weir empowered to collect money for such puipmes. Mr. POLLOCK, in teply,on sim part of the Com missioners, stated that the application, in point of tact, went to the extent of having tooth, which had been collected for one purpose, espended on anerh e e ; the Commissioner. were not under any oblig..osion light and watch such roads; but that it seas entitely lelt to their discretion. The Soucuroa-GxwaRAL shortly replied. Lord TENTERDEN Said that the COWL would post pone their judgment. ARCHES' COURT,.I4III. HASIERTON AGAINST HAMERTON. . - Dr. LUSIIINGTON again moved that the conclusion of this cause might be rescinded, for the admission of a further allegation on behalf of the husband, setting forth ' additional facts to prove adultery comusit,red by Mrs. Hamerton at Paris. He grounded his memo ma an affidavit of Major Harnestoo, stating, that dui* the issidence of Mrs..Hanserton in the Roe Neu,. St. A. "' yestine, in that city, she had been visited by Mr. 15,44, I . od that the additional facts let/ to I.I I C cPOclasicriti tkat • adultery had been committed by them, which fectithad recently come to his knowledge. The COURT declined tescinding the conclusion at present. The motion might stand over till next court day, to give time to the Other party to read the athda vits, wbeq dist mighfbe heard in opposition. PREROGATIVE COURT, Jae. U. After the business of she Arches' Court was ever, Sir J. hlicuou. held a Court of Prerogative, to com plete the preliminary proceedings in the,cause of COLVIW AGAINST seam MID OTHERS. Dr. Pulliam:es opened, on behalf of Mr. Fraser and; the nest of kin, in opposition to the will propounded by; . the executor. The Learned Advocate went partially over the heads of the allegations, as detailed by the ' King's Advocate, which it is needless to repeat in full. On the day of the deceased's death, Mr. Colvin, and Mr. Barnet, Mr. Farquhar's banker, 'sealed up all the depositaries in the house, and the' ensuing 'day com menced a diligent :catch throughout, without discover ing any wilt. The nest of kin left by the deceased, who ' I had survived his brother and sisters, were Mr. Fraser and Lady Pole, the children of one sister, Messrs. J 'met and George Mortimer, Mrs. Aitken, and Mrs. Lumsden, the children of another sister, and Mrs. Tr, zevant, the daughter of the deceased's brother, who. had died in A merica. An opposition bid been Offered to the grant of administration jointly to 'Mr. Fraser and Messrs. Mortimer, on the part of the latter's sisters, who sub sequently withdrew their opposition ; but in c-insequence of the inability of Messrs. Mortimer to justify security to the requisite amount, administration devolved to Mr. Fraser alone. On the recall of the grant, affidavits bad been put in by Mr. Colvin, Mr. H. Phillips, Mr. G. H. -Philips, and others. Mr. Colvin deposed that the c.in tents of the will were not known to shim timing the de ceased's life-time, except that he was informed by him that his intention was to have bit property for the put motion of education in Scotland. Mr. H. Phillips de posed that be received from the deceased.the draught cf the will sent by Mr. Colvin so the deceased at Paris, a copy of which was obtained by - Mr. Fraser through his means; but the dep nent had no copy of it. The deponent knew of the codicil deposited with Mr. Chitty. He also stated, that on the morning of the 4th of July, 1826. the deponent, attending the deceased for the adjustment of cent in accounts and arrangements respecting Fl.n , bill and other large estates urged the ne , ce icy of his making a will. The .deceused replied be had two already. lifr. Phillips further stated, that the l ori jk inal draught . of the will lent to Paris wats.placed in the hands of Mr. Delahant. at Paris. .Mr.G.l3. Phillips, in his affidavit, stated that this draught was received by him from Mr. Delahant, and is annexed to his affidavit. Another cops of this daught was. in a subsequent affi davit, produced by Mr. Colvin; and a further copy. in the handwriting of Mr. Drake. Annexed to a further affidavit, by Mr.G. H. Phillips, were two copies of the same document: In An% no less than six copies of this draught were before the Cburt. Dr. Putuassoas pointed out, as he proceeded in his details of the history of these documents, a va fiery of di:crepancies and contradictions in the statements of the producers; these remarks it is not necessary here to state, as they will appear with more effect in our repot i.f the argument. At resent we have done no mote than give an outline of the allegations on either site, which, it must be well known, are mere assertions till dem. , nstrated by evidence. The Learned Advocate concluded his opening by stating-, that he should con tend that it was clearly the intention of the deceased to renounce and destroy the will - of 1814. The f irmal reading of the evidence then commenced, in the course of which Dr. PHILLIMORIC and Dr. Luautuorcio (who was for Mrs. Tr, ze yap) opposed the admission of that part of Mrs. Hunt's evidence which detailed a conversation ith Mrs. Jao•es Mortimer, wherein the latter declared that she had destroyed the deceased's will. They con tended that this was making the evidence of the wife available against the husband. The KINOII Anvocan contended for the adtsfibsibi lily of the evidence. Sir J. NICHOLL said he would reserve the decision of the question. and the evidence might terthe present be taken de lent ease. The argumcnt was fixed specially for Monday next. NEWCASTLE, JAN. 27. For several days past we have had the weather here intensely cold. with considerable falls of snow. The river has been partially bonen, sn as considerably to obstruct the navigation. Yesterday (Monday) rooming we had a snow storm winch exceeded in severity any thing we have experienced this winter. Towards the afternoon it became a Jecided thaw. Saturday the lifeless boJy of Mr. Mark Mikepeace, upboisteter, North Shields, was found near the Monk house, among some drifted snow. It appears that be had gone to Haltley_ on the Friday to receive a bill for s -me woo k he, bad done, the shale amount of which nas found upon him.

The vessel had been fumigated during.the day to destroy the rats, and a fire being left in the cabin, had caused the accident. Wednesday an Inquest was held on the body of Robot Temple, who was killed the preceding evening near Pleasant ltow, Gateshead, by a fall from a cart fie was di icing. Verdict—Accidental death. Tuesday an Inquest was held at Eteetdedgn, on the body sd a fine girl, named Hannah Eadingion, aged 142, who was drowned in the &saloon of the ptiked.ng day.
