S Motion for copies ' of the Rolls of Freeholders in the different Counties of Scotland, was agreed to last night in the House rC Commons, with the consent of the Ministry. A g-eat tamper of Petitions were presented in both House;, complaining of the depressed state of the Agriculture of the country, and praying for farther protecting Duties. The fact of the distress was readily allowed by such of the Members as incidentally delivered their sentiments ; but the absurd way by which the Petitioners seek to relieve it, seemed happily to meet with but little favour or encouragement.

The venerable Mr. GRATTAN landed at Liverpool on Monday night, from the Waterloo steam -packet. The Pier was crowded with the sons of Hibernia, who were assembled to welcome their distinguished countryman. On his leaving the vessel, he was greeted with three hearty cheers, and hundreds Dressed forward to shake him by the hand, but his worn-out frame was not able to bear their proffered marks of respect. When the horses were brought down for the carriage, the people - insisted on drawing him to his hotel, which they did amidst loud huzzas. When the Deputation from the Irish Catholics lately waited upon Mr. GRATTAN, the interview, we are informed," says the Dablin Weekly Register, " was rno:t affecting. Mr. GRATTAN sat in an arm-chair, huddled up in a blanket, and apparently sunk into the lowest state of physical exhaustion. He was sur rounded by Mr. PLUNKET, Mr. Bunnows, - and other persons of distinction. When the Deputation entered, he made an effort to rise, but found himself unable to support himself. His first words were My Friends—l am going to die—we are about to part for ever r All the Gentlemen present evinced the strongest emotions, and there was nit one of the whole group who did not shed tears."

Iler UAJESTr is leading a most retired and regular life : she rises early, and is in bed generally before eleven: her dinner' hour is two, after which she takes an airing on the Lake, and returns at five to tea. Her MAJESTY was confined at Milan several days by indispo sition, but is now in the best health and spirits : she has been induced to travel with less expedition than usual, following the advice of her physicians. " On Friday, as the Qualm entered her_carriage to take her ecuitosnecl ride, she was informed of the death of the Duchess of Yoax, (happily a false report)--it so affected her that she was obliged to return to her chamber in evident distress. " From the Authorities of the KIJIO Of SARDINIA her MAJESTY received the greatest attention. Though she expressed a desire I , to keep the strictest incognito, they insisted upon providing her 2414,resrr with an escort of carabiniers throughout the Sardinian dominions.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY !S. Shrill before the Cuts? Justacn and a Special JacT. BRISKTON V. HAWKS, HAWKS, HAWKS AND STANLEY. This was an action for infringing a patent granted to the plaintiff in the year 1813, for certain improve ments in the construction, making, or manufacturing of ships' anchors and windlasses, and chain'cabies, or moorings. The cause was of considerable import ance, and occupied"the attention of the Court for up wards of five hours. The case for the plaintiff was ripened with great Obility by Mr. SZARLETT, and was confined to an infringement of one part only of the patent, namely, the chain-cables : but it was .con tended by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL, for the defend ants, that, as the patent was not for one, but three articles, if any one of them were not new at the time of obtaining the patent, or not useful, the patent would be void. The JUDGE, if We rightly understood his Lordship, was not disposed to admit this: it Was possible that the oldness or inutility. of any one of the three articles embraced by the patent, might render the patent void as to that one, withcint destroying the right of the patentee to the other two; and therefore his Lord ship would reserve the point of law on this head, if defendants insisted on entering into any other question than the infringement complained of. It was finally so settled ; the defendants insisting on inquiring into the novelty of plaintiff's mode of manufacturing ships anchors. They admitted the novelty of the windlass. On the part of the plaintiff the utility of the chain cable was proved by Captain Johnston, the acting manager of the house of Messrs. Buckles and Co.' eminent ship-owners in the City, who stated, that all the ships belonging to their house were furnished with the patent chain-cables and anchors; that the hempen cables used frequently to give way, the iron ones never ; and that, in a voyage to the West IndieS, their ships used to break, on an average, two of the common anchors every voyage—sometimes ;three; but that they have never yet broken. one of the pater.t anchors. The actual infringement of the patent was that proved by a Gcitleman who bought a chain cable from defendants, impressed or marked with the name of Hawks on every one of the links, a piece of which was exhibited to the Jury.' Dr. GREGORY and Mr. BARLOW (of the Royal Mi-. litary Academy, Woolwich), Mr. BRUNEL and Mr. DONKIN (both eminent Engineers), gave evidence to the perspicuity of the specification, and the scient ifi c merits of the chain-cable and anchor. The improve : . merits in the former they stated to be, the p:acing. the whole material of the links in the same sectional• plane, the introducing a broad-ended stay into each link to prevent the sides from colap , ..ing when exposed to a strain ; the making the ends of this stay remain in their place by lapping Upon and surrounding:a considerable portion of the opposite curved parts of the link, and the making those parts of each link which interpose between the central stay and the neighbouring interposed links at each end as straight as possible, that they might not be solicited to change their figure when exposed to a strain—every .change of the figure being apt to injure the fibre of the iron : and these improvements were pointed out as being' manifest and.self-evident, by comparing the patent chain-cables with the chain-cables before in use, which were manufactured by Captain Brown.— In these cables the links had stays, but instead of being broad ended, they were sharp pointed ; and instead of lapping round and embracing the opposite inner sides of the link, were secured in the links by holes punched in these to receive the pointed ends of the pins or stays—a mode of combining them that tended to weaken the link and endanger its rupture, by breaking it over the points of the stay as fulcrums, when exposed to a strain; and, besides, instead of presenting the substance of the link in the same sec tional plane, Captain Brown's links are made of a twisted form, for the avowed purpose of giving them elasticity—a form extremely injurious to the strength of the link, as the first effort of every strain must be to draw the link out of its twist, and bring those portions of it which lie between the points of strain into straight lines. JOHN KNOWLES, Esq. Secretary to the Surveyors of the Navy, gave a most interesting detail of experi ments made by order of the Navy Office, to ascertain the comparative merits of Brown's chain-cables and those of the patentee. In every experiment, Brown's twisted links, with sharp-ended stays, were ruptured and broken, while the plaintiff's remained uninjured. In consequence, orders were issued that no more chain-cables, on Brown's construction, should be ad mitted for ie service of the Navy ; but only and ex clusively, chain-cables with broad-ended stays *the links, and the links having their substance in the same plane. The plaintiff next called Mr. BRAMAH, and Profes sor MILLINGTON, of the Royal Institution; but the Jusio here intimated, that already the evidence fur the plaintiff appeared so plain, that he should like to learn from defendants' Counsel what answer they could give to so strong a case, without now taking up the time of the Court in examining more witnesses for plaintiff, till it should be seen, from the nature of the defence, whether it would be necessary?—in which event, he would not preclude defendant from calling more witnesses. The Counsel for plaintiff said, they had many scientific men to be examined, if necessary ; but had no objection to what had been recommended by his Lordship. [We have seldom or never seen in any cause such 1 a phalanx of scientific and practical men as were subpsenaed for the plaintiff. Besides those already mentioned, we observed among them, Messrs. MAW DESLAY, WILSON LOWRY, OSTELL, GALLOWAY, TILLOCH, KEIR, COLLINGE, HAWKINS, GILL, T. Joxes (Instrument-maker to the Board of Longitude), and others; besides Master Ship-builders, Sea Cap tains, and people versant with Naval matters, but whose names we could not learn.] Defendants' Counsel contended, that neither the chain-cable nor the anchor were new. Chains having oval links, vet y similar in fornt-to those desoxibed• by • the patentee, had been in use for ages, therefore he could have no exclusive .right to the use •of such' chains ; and Captain Brawn bad n ;:d stars, there. : fore he could have no exclusive Elvin to them. It- was also stated, that evidence would be offered to prove that links, having their substance in the same plane;• and having sslot might bc called broad-ended buys (though not so broad, nor preci..ely of the form cf plaintiff's stay), had been in use long before the dar.e of the patent. . . . Some old men (nail-makers) were called to prove, that among parcels of old iron, which they were in the habit of working up into nails, they had fre quently, many years ago, met with pieces of chain stays in them, which were not sharp pointed; and some persons belonging to the arsenals were brought to prove the receat sale of similar pieces of chain:among the old stones. Various pieces of the kind of chain alhtded to were - produced and swora to by the witnesses, but it turned one on examining them, that the stays did n& lap round the substance Id the link, leaving the substance unhurt, but, on the contrary, were retained in their places by being received into not..lles chiselled out of the substance 'of the link ; and it was also proved, even by de ' fendants witnesses, that the stays were not put into the lioks to strengthen them against a strain, but merely to preveat the chain from kinkin g ;—that is, 'two or more of the links getting entae:gled; and that • they were made solely for pump chains. • Another link of a chain, tot of the form of plain tiff's,- but having stays, with ends th:it might be called comparatively broad, and secured by lapping • round the inner part of the link where interposed, like the plaintiff's, was now put in and sworn to, by one of Mr. Rennie's workmen, as having been (Gr rather similar links) trade and used, some months fore the date of the patent : but on cross-examini , g, • the witness, it was proved that they were not made for a chain, properly so called ; that only four of them were made in all; and that they were applied to the joining cf :Ns.° bolts in some building. Defend:yes Counsel next put in what is commonly well known by the name a mushroom-anchor, and another, known by the name of the adze-anchor, ' both having their names from their respective forms. The head of the former, instead of having arms and flukes,• has a large round head, shaped like a dish, or a portion of a sphere: the latter is like a cooper's adze. They are both made of cast iron, with a shank of malleable iron rivetted into them : this the Counsel insisted -Was the same method as that de scribed by the plaintiff, and therefore his anchors were not•new.: The answer was, that these were not the kind ef anchors claimed or described by the Patentee, whose anchors had arms and flukes, •and were described as skip's anchors,•which these were not. it was proved, even. by thew:tnes es for defendan s. that these an chors were employed only for stationary moorings— and not for ship's anchois used on voyages. • It:was now . put to the jury, whether there was any neces,ity fur the plaintiff 's Counsel to take up their time? and they stated, that they thought it not necessary, is they were perfectly masters of the whole Case. - • .The CHIEF JUSTICE now addressed the Jury. It was not necessary that he should recapitulate the evidence respecting the particular infringement com plained of, as the plaintiff's Counsel had not been called upon to address them. He wished, however, in giving their verdict respecting the infringement on the chain-cable, to be also informed by them, whe ther they found the anchor to be new and beneficial? The Jury found for the-plaintiff upon all the points, namely, that the specification was sufficient. the chain cable and anchor new and beneficial, and that the defendants had infringed the chain-cable. Nominal damages alone were sought for in this action, the question of Right being all that was to he tried, as the defendants were to account, under a previous suit in Chancery, for the profits they had made by the use of the invention. The Jury accordingly awarded One Shilling Damages, besides Costs or Suit. The verdict seemed to giie very general satisfac tion to a crowded Court. CRIM. CON. The action brought by Sir .Toga DOYLE against IG. P. BROWN, Esq. for criminal conversation with Lady DOYLE, came on fov trial on Monday, at Dub lin,“ before Lord NORRURY and a Special Jury. The damages are laid at £so,ooo. A motion was made to put off the trial, on account of the absence of some material witnesses, but the grounds of it were unsatisfactory to his Lordship, who ordered the cause to proceed. The case for the prosecution occupied the Court till a late hour on Monday, when an adjournment took place till next day. The inte rest which this cause has excited in the Irish Public is extremely great, and he Court was crowded to excess by persons of the first rank and fashion. BAII.F.T—TIIIS DAY.
