Lincoln's-inn Hall was yefterday crowded to a very uncommon degree, to wingers Lord Chancellor Ea altilla's taking his feat. If any expedation, how ever, was indulged that his Lordihip would have made an addrefs to the bar, it was difappointed. His Lordlbip took his feat at ten o'clock. and after fitting about ten minutes along with the Mallets of Chan cery; bowed to them, as if difpenfing with their far ther attendance. His Lordflsip then held his firlt feel, in the condi of which he determined many points of material confequence to the parties concerned, with a prompt ads and diferinsinatsoa which gave high gratification to the auditory affembled, and afforded well ground. ed expectations of a fpeedy and fatisfadory admini• Oration of the equitable jurifprudence of this cquotry, while entrulted to his Lordllaip's care. The, remains of Mr. PITT lay in Rate yefterday in the Painted• Chamber. A confiderable number of perfons crowded to gain a fight of the folemn fpellacle, but the greateit order was preferred. The fpetlators gained ad million through Weßminfier Hall, palling afterwards acrofs the lobby of the Heufe of Commons, and through the Long Gallery, into the Painted Chamber, from whence they took their depar ture by another parcage, leading into Upper Palace Yard. The Long Gallery was hung with black, and lighted with a row of fconces on each fide ;the Painted Chamber was hung and lighted in the fame manner, baying efcocheons of the arms of Mr. PITT. placed alternately between the fconces. At the upper end was placed the coffin, covered with a pall, decorated with efcocheons, and with the vett of the deceafed placed on it, under a black canopy, furmounted by feathers, and a Baron's coronet—Several attend ants were LI ationed near the coffin in the attitude of .mourning, and on each fide feveral lights in branches. The whole had a folemn and im preffive effeft. Several conftables were Rationed in the interior to preferve order, and a detach ment of military were on duty in Upper Palace-yard.

Same sp as las pm liar On Tuefday eveningalall, died, at her father's bonfe is Piccadilly, Lady Louisa FITZROY, third daugh tir of his Grace the Duke of Gaarrow, in the 59th year of her age. The following intelligence is from the New York f'apers, arrived yfferday, to the 15th of January : " Mr. Davis, who arrived at Bolton, from the Vine 'peed, acquaints the Editor of the Cestiorl, of the ar rival there on Wednefday lail of the fhip Refolution, Captain D. Roosts, in forty days from Lilbon ; who reformed Mr. Davis, that previoufly to his failing ham Lithon, information had been received there, by Mr. Pisceary, that our differences with Spain had been amicably adjulled, and that the Court of Spain bad ordered payment to be made of all the fpoliation Of !hips, cargoes, freights, &c. heretofore allowed— that Mr. Pince' ey had failed from Lifbon, for eltarleßon, in a Swedies thip, five days before the itefolution failed." By a private letter from Jamaica we have reccit. 'ad Ina flattering accounts of the general appear- I once and fertility of that Wand ; their crops of Inger mad coffee are expelled to he great beyond any precedent. The amazing quantity of 26 millions weight of coffee, it is fuppofed, will be exported this *a(on ; lalt year, a 4 millions was the amount of the crop, which was confidered a very large one: In great ,las been the increafe of the growth of that pro fi table branch of colonial produce within there few yaws, that we are informed one million weight was the ut• molt growth of the gland, not more than fifteen years ago ; their other articles of culture have increafed in the fame large proportion, the extent of which may be Mu ibuted t.) the diminifhed Hate of the commerce of St. Domingo, refulting from the enfranchifement of the Blacks. If the value of a Lottery Ticket be ellimated from the Number in the Wheel, and the whole amount of the Prizes, each Ticket in Bowen!' Magnificent Hilloric Lottery mutt be worth more than double the three Guineas demanded ; as exclufive of each being entitled to an elegant fet of Engravings, equal, at lean, to the amount of the fur paid, there is a Ten Thou fund Pounder, and no lefs that Fourteen Hundred other Capital Prizes. Who then can wonder at the demand for Tickets having fo far exceeded an other I Lotteries ?—joba Bull is no mifer, it is well known, though he is fond of taking his money to the belt ' market. Every Ticket drawn to•mnrrnw is lure to be a Prize, and the Firft Drawn Ticket on the Sixth Day is lure to be zo,oool. therefore thole who purchafe now have a double chance, as every Ticket drawn before the 28th infiant is Pure to be a Prize; and every capital Prize already drawn has been fold in Shares.

Yeflerday Arm Fry was intlided for Ruling two Anions, a napkin, a quantity of china, &c, the pro. perty of James Willis. The prnfecutor fisted, that he was in partner(bip with his brother, at the Thatch. ed Houfe Tavern King's-fireet, St. James's, and the prifoner was occationally employed as chair woman. In confequenee of numerous articles being miffing from the houle, her lodgings in Hewett's-court, in the Strand, were fearch e d, an d t h e property I men tioned in the indictment found. Mr. Willis (wore to the property, and the prifoner was found guilty. Pbtrly Walitr. and Ass Sneed, were indicted, the former for Healing a quantity of china plates, fpoons, &c. the property of Main. Willis, and the latter for receiving the Caine, knowing them to have been Helen. Walker was a fervent at the Thatched Houle Tavern, and Mr. Willis fisted, as in the for mer cafe, that lie had been robbed by his fervants in fuch a manner as made it neceffary for Slim to fet a watch. It appeared from the evidence of Francis Howe, one of Mr. Willis's fervants, that he was fet to watch on the 3d of February, on which evening there was a ball, &c. at the Tavern. At two o'clock the next morning, he law the prifooer Walker, with a fellow fervent maid, named Humploiss, who was admitted an evidence, enter the room, when Hum phries Paid—Now, for what we can find. Witnefs taw them take the pieces of wax candles from the chandelier fockets, which Walker put two her poc ket. The other ankles mentioned in the indictment, were alto found in the prifoner's poffeffion, who was found Guilty, and the receiver acquitted. jsigg How was capitally indicted for felonioufly haling, on the ssth of January hilt, an ebony port able writing dells, value sos. eleven pounds in bank notes, a filter pencil cafe, and Come other articles, the property of a Mrs. Banks. It appeared from the teiliniony of Mrs. Banks, that, on the day above fisted, the prifooer, who is a hackney coachman, conveyed her in his coach from the houfe of a Mr. D'Obre, in Fleet4reet, to No. st. Raffell-fquare, together wit& footle luggage, coals& kg of keen parcels, inchifive of the writing de& charged in the indictment, in the fecret drawer of which were contained eleven pounds in bank notes, and a miniature picture, fet in gold, a filver pencil cafe, with Come letters ; that fix of thefe parcels were brought into the houfe in Roffell-fquare, but the defle was forgotten, and the t coachman drove away with it. jofeph Proby, the foot boy of Mr. D'Obre, proved that he put the five* parcels into the coach. James Woodbury (worn, (aid he was a cabinet. maker, refiding at Bateman's Row, near Shoreditch, and that the prifoner lodged io his houfe. On the evening of the 25th of January. the prifoner came home about (even or eight o'clock, and brought in his hand a fmall black writing defk ; filmed it him, and afked him what was its value ? Witnefs made no anfwer : and the prifoner Paid, he fuppofed it might be worth us. or a pound. He afked the wit. neis to open it, which he did by turning it bottom upwards. Prifoner (cached it, while witnefs looked over his fhoulder, and only obferved fome look pa pers in it. The defk was again faftened, and the prifoner left it there, and went away. Next day the witnefs's brother came to dine with hint, and as he had fome time before (poke to him to get for him a (mall writing dale, he (hewed him that one, and Paid it was to be fold. His brother afked the value ? and the witnefs anfwered about thirty (billings, on which his brother hade him buy it for him, but not to give too much money for it. Next day witnefs afked the prifoner if he meant to fell the defk ? to which the prifoner anfwered yes, he was going to fell it.— Witnels replied, bis brother would give 3os. for it. Prifoner replied he fisould have it, when witnefs agreed to give him 161. which, with a bill of 14s. he owed him for lodging, would make up the funs On the Wednefday following, he fent the defk to his brother'. houfe. This antlers underwent a long and minute eras , examination from the prifooer's Connie', Mr. Gleade, who, with much difficulty, extracted from him Inch acknowledgments, as placed his own conduct in a curious point of view. He Paid. he did not know who opened the door for the prifoner on the sight he came home with the defk, though there was no one in the houfe but himfelf and his wife. He knew the prifoner was a hackney coachman, but when he (hew ed him the dells, and afked him to open it, and what the value was, it never once occurred to him, whether the defk was the coachman's own, or whether it was the property of Come other perfon, left in his coach. He never law Inch a defk before, though he has been many years in the cabinet-making bufinefs, and opened this dells immediately with the utmolt facility. He examined the dells on Tuefday, after he had par chafed it in his brother,andfound in thefecret drawer t ii. in Bank notes, 51.0 f which he appropriatedimme. diately to his own tile, as he wanted money jufi then; but could eafily make up the Cum again. if any body fhould enquire about it. The remaining notes for 61. he acknowledged to have teemed in a phial but , tie, and concealed in the parlour chimney i there were force other papers in the dells, but thofe he never read nor examined, nor did he know whether or not they were letters, or had or had not any fn perfcription ; but he knew they contained no Bank notes ; they were left in the de& when it was fent to his brother's, and he believed the papers were then burnt, he could not tell by whom. His brother was in the habit of dining with him every Sunday. He meant by .‘ if any body lhould enquire about the money," that the defic might be advertifed, hut be never advertifed it, nor made any enquiry about the owner. Thomas Woodbury, the Mk witnefs's brother, Gid, he was a printer ; that he is not in the habit of din• ing with his brother every Sunday ; that his calling at his brother'', on Sunday the 26111 of January, was a mere accident; that he had fignified before his with to his brother to hive a fmall defic ; that his brother pointed to this defk, which was in the room, and Paid the value was to be about sos. ; and that without ever examining it, he bade his brother buy it for him at that price. His brother brought it to his Kittle on the Wednefday following; he was very bury and never examined it till the Sunday folloti ing, when his bother and hi, will came to fee him. He found no papers in the dell: ; loft he believed there were fume, but they were taken out before; he be• lieved they were burnt in t!rr lire then in the room ; 1 but could not tell who took them o•ut a bunt th:tn. He few the papers on the Ere, knew they were n t printed papers, but could not tell whether they w- e letters or not, or whether only one or more. Le found in the body of the de& a miniature piiture. but he did not know the felting was gold. He never told his brother of it, nor made any enquiry whether or not it was part of his bargain porchafed with the deft; he did not fee his brother afterwards, before the Saturday following, when the Officers of Police came and (earthed hie houfe and conk the deft away. Pickering, a conflable, belonging to Worfhip-fireet, Rated, that in confequence of an information, he charged the prifoner, on his Rand, with having taken the deft. He at firfi denied it, but afterwards ac knowledged he had found it, and fold it to the per (on in whnfe houfe he lodged. He then went to the . boufe of the firft witnefs, who acknowledged his hay. ing bought the deft for his brother, and fent it to his houfe, where they went and found it. The Conflable then went to finch the &ft Witnefea boufe for the papers and Bank notes, and poking up the chimney, a final' phial fell down covered with dirt, in which they perceived fome paper, with the mark of a al. note ; and the bottle, on being broken before the MAgittrate, was found to contain three al. notes, which the Gra Witnefs acknowledged were part of thole found in the deli. The Pr ironer adduced feveral witneffes, who gave him an excellent char:tiler. Baron Sorrow then recapitulated the evidence to the Jury ; in doing which he confidered the tellimo ay of the two Woodbury's as wholly immaterial to the cafe; otberwife, it any part of the material proof relied upon their teltimony, he would have felt it his duty to tell the jury, that, from the grofa prevarication and contradirfory evidence both had exhibited, they were wholly difentitled to credit; — ' , any thing fo grofsly difhonea, on the part of perfons 'ag forward as evidence for a profecution, he had name witneffed. ,He was aflonifbed that thofe men. Wend of being brought as witneffes, bad not been MAMA itS accomplices ; for on their own acknow lodgment, and the circumftances as they appeared againft them, they were clearly siting as the re ceivers of goods, which they molt have knows wore not honeftly come by, and in which even the princi pal was defrauded of his part of the booty, and each brother appeared to have defignedly defrauded the other, by concealing the contents of the deft, as re fpedively found by each. There were circussfames of palliation in the crime of the prifoner, which by no means appeared in the conduit of thofe witneffes; for though it was noz. to be admitted for a moment, that the driver of a hackney coach is to confider every thing as his jut prize, which his fare may have for gotten ; on the contrary, it was his duty to leek the owner by advertifement, or otberwife ; yet the pri• loner had fome there of ignorance, or inadvertency. to plead in his ezeufe, which the witneffes had not. Bat without their tellimony, the guilt of the prifoner was proved by his own acknowledgment to the offi cers of jullice. The Jury, afterretiring for about half an hour, returned their verdia—Gailty of Reeling to the value of 3cos. DI 0 • Mr. Henry Hall, a man of refpeitable rank in life, was indiAed for bigamy, in having married a widow lady of the name of Daubigny, who was engaged in the fpirit vade, on the 27th of November, t gm, at the parifh church of St. Mary•la•bonne ; hisformer wife, whom he married at the parifh church of Stroude, in Kent. by the maiden name of Ann Wiffin, being then firing. Mr. John Howell, pun clerk of Stronde, proved that he knew both the parties previous to their mar riage ; law them married ; produced a certificate of the marriage from• the parifh regittry. and Paid he knew them to live - together ten years afterwards, in the adjoining parifh of Frienfbury, where the prifoner carried on the bufinefs of a pottery. He law the pri loner's fill wife a Ihort time fence, about fix weeks ago, and the was very glad to fee him, and !hook • hands with him. Crofs-examined by Mr. Serjeant Berr.—Said he underftood then to have been fine feparated, and heard that about two years ago the was at Chatham. He law her lalt is Whitechapel, where he underftood the lived with a man, nut her hufband, but,did not fee that perfon. Mr. Thomas Byrne, pat int clerk of Mary-la-bonne, produced the parifh regiliry, and proved the mar riage in that church with the widow Daubigny. Mr. Richard Howell proved his having tided as father at 'the left' marriage, and given away Mrs. Daubigny as her trultee. Mrs. Daubigny alfo gave evidence, and Paid, the heard rumours of Mr. Hall's former marriage, and his fill wifebeing fill living, after the had lived with him three years, which the mentioned to him, but which he pofitively denied, and brought his fir) wife's father to alfure her the was dead. _ . Crofs-examined by Mr. Serjeant Barn—She (aid Mr. Hall eonduSed himfelf with all the tendernefs of a kind and afreetionate hufband ; that he had behaved kindly to all her family, and had at his marriage fet tled all her property on heifelf. She was very deeply atte!ted while giving her talimony,and was lupported out of Court. _ _ _ _ The Prifoner, in his defence, ftated, that he had underftood, by general report, and was further at lured, by his &It wife's own father, that the was dead, or he never would have attempted the fecond marriaoe, which brought h;in to his prefent fituation. Mr. Wiffin, his firft father-in law, proved, that the report was general of his daughter's death ; that he believed it, and had told the Hinter fo at his own hnufe—but this telling was after she Gianni marriage. Another Witnefs, at whole houfe the MR wife tired frequently to vifit, at King-ftreet, in the Swoosh, alto proved the report of her death, which be firmly believed, as her villa to his houfe were tuddealy continued, and he had not feen her for t 8 months. He fince underftood the was living with a perfon in St. George's field:, who had been a prifoner in the King's Bench. The Jury found the Prifoner Gorey.
