LAW INTELLIGENCE. • , .•. COURT OF CHANCERY, Ins POINT OF PRACTICE.--FRY V. WATSON. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. Jost IS. THE VIGO BAY SCHEME. -- - - Mr. Temple applied to set aside an order, granting an injunction made by his Honour the Vice Chancellor upon an interpleading bill. The plaintiffs, the solvent partners of Fry and Co. late bankers, had admitted by their bill quit they held in their hands 8711. belonging to the de fendant, Mrs. Watson. The executors of her husband had likewise claimed the amount, and brought an action to recover it, triable at the present Assizes in Shropshire. A suit in this Court had also been instituted by Mrs.Wat ton in respect of it. No affidavit had been made that a counter claim had been set up for the money before the filing of the bill, and yet, merely on the assertion of the party, the Vice Chancellor had issued the injunction to restrain the trial. In Langstone v. Boylatone, in 2d Vesey, it was decided the practice of the Court required an affidavit, and as none had been filed, the Learned Counsel submitted the injunction ought to be dissolved. Mr. Lovat and another gentleman appeared on the other side. They denied the necessity, according to the practice of the Court, of having an affidavit. The deci sion in " Walbank v. Spokes," supported the practice that had now been adopted. If an affidavit had been deemed necessary, one would have been instantly filed. The Lord Chancellor put several questions to those around him, for the purpose of ascertaining what the practice was ; and in the result said, " L find upon this, Sir Anthony Hart, when Vice-Chancellor, was dis: finely deceived upon the practice being one way, and the present Vice-Chancellor is of opinion that it is the other way. The experience of the Registrar is, that it is not necessary to have an affidavit in order to entitle the party to an injunction. The prevailing opinion at the bar is, that it has been usual to file an affidavit before applying for the injunction. These contending views will cause me to adopt the usual course of ascertaining with still more precision what the practice really is or ought to be, and then to settle it. I shall state on Monday what the rule is." The Solicitor-General (with whom was Messrs. Horne and Richards) applied to his Honour on behalf of Mr. Polhill, calling upon the directors of the Vigo Bay Com pany to deliver up all the deeds, papers, and documents respecting the above scheme, and that they should be deposited in the Master's Office, so that they might be inspected by all the parties concerned. Mr. Horne said, he thought there could be no objec tion to the defendants complying with the request, par ticularly as his client did not ask them for any of the treasure. The Solicitor-General said, he did not believe there was any treasure; but if there was, the defendants should have the benefit of it for the present. Mr. Ellison, for the defendants, contended that it would not be proper for his clients to grant the applica tion, inasmuch as there was a certain action at law now pending respecting some of these very documents, which, if lodged in the Master 'S office, would expose their defence. Counsel on both sides consulted for a short time. The Solicitor-General said, it was not the wish of his client to press for the immediate production of the papers connected with the trial in question—they should be excepted. His Honour then directed that all the books, papers, and documents belonging to the Company should ,be lodged in the Master's Office, with the exception of those relating to the trial now pending. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JULY LI. LIEELi.-MUREAY V. SCOWLER. The Attorney-General (with *loin were Menem. Bioughani arid Richards) stated that the defendant was proprietor of two newspapers, The Mancheider Courier gad The Manchester Herald, and the action was brought by the plaintiff against them, to recover compensation in damages for several libels published against them in these, papers, in September and October, 1827. The plaintiff witi a young man, lately come of age, Who was early noted for his talent in making surveys ; and he, before he was nineteen years of age, projected a work which pro mised, if well execttted, to be of great public benefit, and to produce a fortune to himself; that was, to make an accurate survey, and publish a map, of the inland navi gation of the vicinity of Manchester—a vicinity almost intersected with canals. Accordingly he set to work, and hdd, in 1827, made considerable progress, and obtained a great number of subscribers. In 1827, Messrs. Nichol„ Mid two other gentlemen of Wakefield, applied to the plaintiff to join with them, as they were preparing a work of the same kind. The Attorney-General here gave a very minute statement of the circumstances, but, from the manner in which the case terminated, without any evidence on the Merits, it will be most proper, at present, tcititati the nature of the case generally, without im plicating any one. The plaintiff allowed that the propo sition was the, he should be a partner with a fourth share ; tlftit. Menne. Nichol and Co. after deliberation, were not '*}fling to comply with this, but offered him a liberal nitetnance for his assistance ; that he rejected this, and prepared to proceed for himself, and that the Messrs. Wild had represented him tie having been disinissed fiain their service in advertisements of their •own work, which were published by the defendant in his papers„ to the great injury of the plaintiff and his work. This action Wski for the publication in the Manchester Courib.. The affidavit of proprietorship, from the Stamp Office ,was 'reduced, and a copy of the paper wits offered in evidence, ei It might be by an Act of the 33d Geo. 111. without f that it had come from the defendant's office, in case the copy corresponded exactly with the title, &c. as set out in The Cattle, end with the affidavit et the stamp ecfe. It was discovered that fhe copy did not corres- 1 • plaid with the affidavit. The stamp office copy was' not signed by the defendant, as the custom with respect to the &mail papers was far 4hb copy signed by the pro "niter to be sent to the local Minim distributor, and then the local distributor sent to the General Stamp-office * c,y signed by himself. bird Tenterden said, that the Act gave great power to plaintiffs, and that the conditions must be strictly com plied with, Which here they were not ; sad he thought the objection fatal. If they had the copy signed by the defendant, it Might have assisted them.—Plaintiff non suited.

About a month back, Mr. Powell, the solicitor of the Mint, received information that s traffic in spurious sovereigns, half-sovereigns, and silver, WAS carrying on in Birmingham, to such en enormous extent, and with such daring impunity, that the venders would not supply a less amount to the utterers than fifty pounds' worth, for which they charged at the rate of three bad sovereigns for one genuine ; and these were generally purchatied by persons who immediately pro ceeded with them to Ireland, where they . put them off with surprising avidity. The venders of the base coin, viz. James Garner, proprietor of the Three Stags Inn, in Navigation-street ; John Davenport, die-sinker, Jane Wilson, John Holland, and Catherine Ryan, have, how ever, been taken into custody, and their apprehension was effected in the following manner. Two men who came from Cork were engaged by Mr. Powell to purchase the base money. Having obtained an interview with Garner, and informed him that they wished to purchase some " queer uns," it was agreed that the agents should deposit 421. good money in his hands ; and the following day, at a certain hour, they were to meet him at the two-mile stone out of Birmingham on the Worcester road, when he would give them 32 counterfeit sovereigns, 64 half sovereigns, and 180 half crowns, making 861. 10s. in bad money. The next day at the hour appointed the two men went to the spot, and there found the primps, waiting for them. Garner, upon seeing them, took them down a bye lane on the road side, and on reaching a small brook that ran across the road, he pointed to a sward, and said, " there it is—remove that turf, and you'll find the property that belongs to you." The men removed the turf of grass, and found the bad money un derneath, wrapped up in separate papers. Garner then walked with them two or three miles on the road, and, wishing them luck, left them. The bad money was im— mediately carried to Mr. Powell ; and Garner, a few days after, while presiding at a dinner, was taken into custody. He was examined before Mr. Spooner, the Magistrate, and was committed to Warwick for trial. Davenport sold to the same men 20 bad sovereigns, 28 half sovereigns 240 half crowns, and 720 shilling', amounting to 65/. 19s. for which was paid 30/. good money. Jane Wilson and John Holland sold 30 bad sovereigns, for which 10/. were paid. Catherine Ryan had made a purchase of one of the prisoners of 26 sove reigns, 475 half crowns, and 830 shillings, with which she was proceeding by the Magnet coach to Liverpool, intending to proceed by the packet to Ireland. At Wal sall, however, a lady, a fellow-passenger with the prisoner, missed her purse, and the prisoner was suspected of hay ing it ; the guard searched the bundle she had in her possession, when the whole of the bad money above mentioned was found. She was brought back to Birming ham, and is now in Warwick gaol with her companions. EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE OF MURDER. Last week Sir Richard Birnie received a communica tion from the office of the Secretary of State for the Home Department, informing him that a man had been landed at Portsmouth from the Thetis transport, arrived from Trinidad, and lodged in gaol, on the charge of having committed a murder in the town of Ayr, in Scotland, in the year 1825. In consequence of this communication, Sir Richard issued his warrant, and intrusted it to Ellis, one of the principal officers, who went off at once to Portstnouth, and returned next morning with the person accused in custody. He is a good-looking man of colour, about thirty years of age, and was dressed in very light apparel, suited to the climate from which he had so re cently come, and a straw or chip hat ; he was then taken lbefore Sir Richard Birnie for examination in the course of the morning : the circumstances which gave use to the accusation against, and apprehension of, the prisoner, were as follow :—At the latter end of the year 1825, a man of colour, supposed to be about 25 years of age, re sided in Ayr, with his wife, and passed under the name of John Johnson. In consequence of some jealousy on the part of this John Johnson as to the conduct of his wife with a farmer residing near Ayr, named John Dow, who had been in the habit of visiting the family, repeated quarrels took place, and on one of these occasions the man John Johnson armed himself with a knife, and way laying Dow on his road home, ripped his bowels open, and he was found dead on the following morning. John son absconded immediately after the murder, and eluded all pursuit, although a reward of 2001. was offered for his apprehension ; he was then generally understood to be a seafaring man, and it was ascertained that he bad 'bade his way to Leith, and embarked on board a trading vessel bound to the West Indies. In September, 1828, the prisoner was at the island of Trinidad, and one morning he was viewing the soldiers of the garrison drawn out for the usual parade, when a pri vate of the 54th Regiment of Foot stepped from the ranks, and pointed out the prisoner as the person who had coin mitted the murder already described. This private soldier, on being questioned as to the ground upon which he charged the prisoner with so serious an offence, said he was a native of Ayr, and was in that town whetr.the murder of John Dow was committed, and he knew the prisoner to be the man Johnson who perpetrated thedeed, ,and immediately afterwards absconded. His statement was so positive, that the prisoner was taken into custody and lodged in gaol. The examination of the private soldier was taken upon oath before the Council, in the presence of the prisoner, and he swore positively to him as John Johnson, the murderer of John Dow. Upon this evidence the prisoner was recommitted to prison, and de tained until the arrival of the Thetis Government tram,- port, on board of Which ship he was• put in custody, and the vessel having to touch at other ports out of the direct passage home, she only arrived at Porftunouth in the latter part of the last week. The prisoner, when apprehended at Trinidad, strongly declared his innocence, and said that hie name was not Johnson, tuft Stevens, and that he never was in Scotland in his life. The soldier, however, was extremely positive as to his identity', and mentioned so many circumstances corroborative of the truth of his statement, that the Council had no alternative but to send him to Orent Britain for trial. When Wore Sir Richard Rimier yestefday, the ptisonei still denied being the man, and made the followidgstate ment :—" I never was in Ayrshire in my life. f em thirty yeats of age, and was born in the isle of Man e Ante I have now, as I belieVe, to wife and children &- Mg. My name is John Steve ns , Mat d ot J o h n John son. My father and mother, whet* names were also Stevens, were phintela it the Wand of Trinidad, and iti 181& th fatho died, and I *erg out to that island* the eatiieat Mid"( of My ditothet, to asst. t hat it Ella Mattagenient of her estates..

I again declare that I know nothing AMA this supposed mipler; that I never was in Scotland in my life; and that I have been confined eleven months, and dragged from Trinidad to this country most unjuitly." Sir R. Binde said he was very sorry if ail was the case; but the information before him was so positive, that he must send him into Scotland, where the principal wit ness resided, in elder that the charge might be tho roughly investigated before the proper authorities. The prisoner was then given back into the custody of Ellie, who had eiders to convey him to Ayrshire, there to be suljeeted to that inquiry before the Sheriff Deflate for the county, &billy denominated " precognition." • Ellis left town with the prisoner last evening, and, on his de parture he was very cheerful, and said it would soon be found that he *si air innocent man.

FATAL EFFECTS OF THE THUNDER nowt A tremendous storm of thunder and lightning broke upon the metropolis about one o'clock on Saturday morn ing. The sky had been lighted up the whole evening by vivid electrical flashes, and so late as half-part 12 the 'stars were all visible, when a dark cloud suddenly arose, and in a few minutes one of the heaviest showers of rein and hail ever witnessed fell in torrents from its bosom. 'Peals of thunder soon followed, and continued rolling with scarcely any intermission for upwards of two hours, accompanied with awful bursts of lightning ; the residents of Bow, Stratford, and Bromley, were thrown into the greatest consternation by the violence of the thunder storm which prevailed in their neighbourhood.
