LAW INTELLIGENCE. --....- COURT OF KING'S BENCH, J& S. DA/lAN V. EIR W. LUNLICT. Mr. ALDERSON opened the pleadings in this cafe, stating that it was an action to recover compensation in damages from Sir William Lumley, Governor of Ber muda, for falsely imprisoning Bedlam, the plaintiff, and James Till, two of the Churchwardens of the parish of St. George's, Bermuda, in 1820. Sir J. SCARLET? stated the case to the Jury. The plaintiff in this action was a highly respectable resident in the island of Bermuda, and had for many years lived in that colony. At Easter, in 1820, .he had been ap pointed churchwarden of the parish of St. George, in that island, for one year. The churchwardens had always been accustomed to render an account to the vestry SO cloys after the year for which they held office:but on this occasion, in consequence of a very malignant fever brav ing prevailed in the island, 60 days bad been allowed by the vestry, to whom alone the Churchwardens were ac countable fcr the preparation of their accounts ; but, before the capitation of that period, a meeting of the Vestry was summoned, at which the present defendant, who was then Governor-General of the island, attended and took the chair. He should previously have stated, that some squabbling had taken place in the parish respecting the amount of the rates. At that meeting of the Vestry, which took place on the 21st of July, 1821, the plaintiff did not attend, but was occupied in his busine.s as an auctioneer, in the sale of some property. The defendant sent a constable of the name of Atkins for the plaintiff, who refused to at tend. He then again sent &kips with a warrant, with two soldiers of the garrison, to assist him in en forcing it. He was then taken into custody beta re de fentiact. who was then in the vestry-room. The de fendant then desired the plailtiff to give up his accounts as churchwarden. The plaintiff answered that the vestry had allowed a certain time for the preparation cf their accounts, namely 60 days, which had not }et expired, and added that many persons in the parish had not then paid in their assessments; and until that took place the accounts could not be settled. He also remarked that it was not in the power of the Governor to enforce the settlement of the accounts of the church- wardens, as they were accountable only to the vestry of the palish Sir William Lumley then said. that it the acccounts were not produced immediately be would commit the churchwardens twjail, from whence no power on earth could free them. They again stated that it was not in their power to do so. The defendant then gave the constable Atkins a warrant, and ordered flint to take them to the jail, and remarked that " he would send them to jail, where they might lie and rot until they gave up their accounts." At first the plaintiff was treated with some degree of lenity ; but afterwards all access of his friends was precluded before sunrise and after 'onset. The room in which the plaintiff wis confined was in a very dirty state. He was detained in this prison until the Ist of Ang. when he presented his accounts to the Vestry, and they were passed. The plain tiff, after having been treated with such marked injustice, and imprisoned in such an illegal manner, brought an ac tion in the chief court of the Colony against the Go vernor of the jail. The verdict in this action was five hundred pounds damages for the plaint ff, Mr., Bashes*. Before, howeser, judgment could be entered in this case, the present defendant, as Governor of the Colony, issued a suit to Mr. Barham, under the seal of the Court of Chancery of the Wane, enjoining him to stay all proceedings against the then defendant—the jailer. By this conduct he was guilty of a most violent and illegal stretch of power. and had done that which no Court of Justice in the British dominions was en titled to do. He bad made himself a judge in his own cause, and had exetesed the power of the Court of Ju lice over which he presided as Governor of the island, in a manner which was a violation of all the appearances of justice. The day his, however, at last come wh. n this Governor had to answer for his con duct, and he t usted the Jury would read a lesson, as well to the defendant as to all n.i.itary Governors of Colonies—to show Sir William Lumley, as w ell as Other military Officers, that si.ilitary controul was not to be exercised over persons in civil situations w.th impunity. He had no doubt, from t'le evidence which he should produce, that the Jury, by their damages, would mark the sense which they entertained of the injury which bad been done his client. The deposition of John Till, who was examined before a Commission, was then read. It stated th..t he knew both the present plaintiff and defendant. l i former was an auctioneer, and the latter the Goes nor of the Island. In the year 1820-1. Mr. 13. sham vas Churchwarden of the parish of St. George. It was the custom in the parish for Churchwardens to give in their accounts to the Vestry at the end cf thirty days, but in consequence of a fever having prevailed in the Island, sixty days were aUowed by the Vestry before Mt. Basham and his colleague Mr. James Till were to give in their accounts. There were some dissensions in she Island at the time. On the 17th of July, 1821. he was present at a Vestry Meeting which had been sum mimed for that day in St.George'sChurch. The defend ant was there, and had taken the chair when deponent arrived. Shortly after wards the plaintiff was brought in the custody of u constable of the name of Atkins to the Vestry. The defendant, Sir W. Lumley, then de.ired Mr.B.to prepare his accounts and deliter them up imme diately. The plaintiff replied he had been allowed a cer tain time by theVe,try,to whom he was accountable, for . the preparation of his accounts, and that the time was mulct expired, and moreover that he was not arswerable to the Governor for bis accounts. The defendant ap peared very angry, and replied, " As he refused to give sap bis accounts, he would send him to the negro jail • without bail, from whence no power on earth could liberate him, and that he should lie there and rot until he gave his account.." The defendant then gave a warrant to the constable Atkins, who took the plaintiff in custody to the negro jail. He was accompanied by a file of soldiers of the 60th Regiment. Deponent saw plaintiff several times in the jail, who was confined there until the lit of August. The deponent only remembers one instance of a white man being confined in the negro jail. The jail was in a very dirty state. He bad never known a Churchwarden in Bermuda give accounts to any but the Vestry. The Governor had no power on the subject according to deponent's belief. Several other depositions of witnesses, at Bermuda, were then read in corroboration of the Learned Coun sel's statement. _ _ He then called W. Winslow, who also spoke to the' apprehension, and the threats of the Governer. John M'Cracken was then called—He is at present a Magistrate of Essex, and had been a member of the vestry of the parish of St. George for from 16 to 18 years, and had never known a Governor interfere with the affairs of the vestry before this occasion. The Go vernor had acted as Ordinary of the island, granting probates, administration', and marriage licences. The Justices of the Peace were appointed by the Governor and Council; the Chaplain of the garrison is appointed by the Governor. From the year 1783 to 1807 had never known but one white man imprisoned at St George's gaol for debt, and another for murder. None others but negroes had ever been confined there. The warrant issued by the defendant as Governor of the Colony, in the Court of Chancery in the island, commanding the present plaintiff, under the penalty of 1,0001. to stay all proceedings against the gaoler and constable, was then put in and read. Two persons were also examined, one of whom con firmed the evidence in the depositions; and the other spoke to the custom of the country with respect to vestries, and to imprisonment of white persons in the negro gaol. The Act of the Local Legislature respecting vestries was then put in and read. This closed the case for the plaintiff. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL then addressed the Jury for the defence. He contended that the Governor had a right, as Ordinary of the Island, to interfere when Churchwardens had neglected their duty. He believed that be should prove to them that the Governor was fully and clear ly justified in following the course he did.but he certainly should prove most satisfactorily that the Gove rnor bad acted under the full conviction of having done his duty and no more. After tracing the authority of the Ordinary from an early date, the Learned Counsel contended that by a Colonial Act, passed for the island, no Vestry Meeting could be legal unless the Rector was present. The Meeting which granted the sixty days to the Churchwardens was therefore nugatory, and the proceedings illegal, the Rector not having been present. It bad been represented to the Governor that the Churchwardens were likely to apply, or rather mis apply, the amount of the parish money in their hands, to the purposes for which it had been voted by an il legal Vestry Meeting. The Churchwardens refused to give up the balance remaining in their hands, which they could have no right to retain, their year of office having expired. They refused to do so, and the Go vernor felt himself called upon, for the sake of order and tranquillity and the security of the parish funds, to exercise his office of Ordinary. After having given due notice to Churcbwat dens that the Vestry Meeting which had granted them the term of sixty days was illegal, even then he did not act till alter a requisition had been presented to him from the Rector and new Church ardens, calling on him to do his duty. Evidence in support of the defendant's case was then read from the depositions taken by a Commission at Bermuda. It appeared that Sir William Lumley di rected the constable to bring the plaintiff to the vestry on the 17th of July, but no orders were given to take soldiers ; the constable took the soldiers to enforce the Governor's order upon his own authority. When the defendant sent the plaintiff to gaol, he was requested in a mild manner to give up his accounts, and thereby avoid committal. Sir JAMES Scaar.arr, in reply, contended that the defendant had no legal authority to act as Ordinary of the Island, and that his conduct had been most oppres sive. It was the case of a British subject resisting an illegal order ; and the Jury, with a knowledge of all that the plaintiff had suffered, could not withhold da mages sufficient to defray the expenses incurred, and prove a compensation for the injury sustained by an undue exercise of authority. Lord Tan Taiwan, in his address to the Jury, said. the action was brought against Sir Wm. Lumley, the Givernot of Bermuda, to recover damages for assault and imprisonment. The plaintiff complained that, on the 17th of July last, he was brought by order of the defendant to the Church of St. George. where he found the defendant and others assembled in Vestry. There, by order of the- defendant, be was committed to gaol, and remained in custody until the 27th day of August. The defendant justified by saying, that being Governor of the Island, and acting as Ordinary, he, in 'the execution of that office, was authorised to do as he had done. Some discussion had arisen on the ques tion whether the defendant was justified in holding the office of Ordinary. His Lordship did not consider himself called upon to give a decided opinion on . that point, but he rather thought from the evidence that the Governor had such authority. There was one Act of Par liament passed in Bermuda in which tl e manner of cur dling the jurisdiction of the Bishop had been regulated. Another Act prescribed the measures to be taken by Government in cases belonging to the jurisdiction of the Ordinary. The defendant, granted letters of administra tirni, aid if he had no authority to do so, all must be void. But it did not appear necessary that he should give a de cided opinion on the subject.S.ipposing the defendant had all the authority which belonged to Ecclesiastical Judges, and that the Ordinary had authority over the church. wardens, ever) in t ro who had that authority must exercise •t according to law. The matter for the consideration of the Jury would be the amount of damages. Looking to the'whOle of the eridence, his Lordship teliesed the de fenslant thought he had the authority he claimed. The facts were these—There were parish accounts relating ,to the preparation of a memorial to be, sent to Govern ment respecting the conduct of the, Giverbor. They were to be ch irge d on tht parish, and a Meeting was held in. the Vestry without thelkector. It was not there foie legal. The plaintiff, who was, one pf the latiChtuch. wardens, had 60 days alloweif to render bia accounts. The defendant, as (3 , remol, interposed, and it certainly did appear that the interposition w4s his own ect,because he sent a letter on the 11th of June, in stkch lie de claied.that the all,wa . oce. of the sums was i llegal, Ansi thathe would send t o p r i s o n an y person who refused to. obey his orders. Usifortunately for the defendant, the items he opptised were items of charge in a matter re-, lating to hirnielf.They were expenses inCirrreclby bring ing soldiers into the Church. Being deter mined..in own milid that these charges should not be ,'alloWed, and that he would compel the old Churchwardens to • *. 9 hand over their books and pores to the near Church wardens, he went to the Church at the Vestry Stetting. In the mean time a man named Taylor, the nevrChurch warden, demanded to have the books passed over to him, and on the 17th July made affidavit that they had been refused by the plaintiff. On the same day the de fendant sent a citation to the plaintiff to attend him as the Ordinary. The plaintiff said he could not, and a constable was sent to force his aprearance. The con stable took with him a corporal and two privates to enforce the orders ri the Governor. They compelled him to come to the meeting, and he was exhorted to hand over the papers and accounts. The plaintiff at the same time was advised by several p.esent not to give in, and he refused. He said he bad 60 days to tender his accounts. The defendant, who had brought a warrant in his pocket, signed it, and the plaintiff was taken to prison. During some days the gaoler was in the habit of al- lowing him to go home at night to his family, but ore Morning, when he was returning to prison, he was seen, and an order was then issued by the Governor for no one to be let out of the prison between sunset and sun rise. These were acts which it e law would not allow. Before a person could be brought before an Ecclesiasti cal Judge, a legal citation must be served, and excom munication follow, before a writ is sued out from the Court of Common Law to deprive him of liberty. There was no ground on which the defendant could justify the imprisonment. With regard to damages, the Jury should recollect that the plaintiff brought an action against the gaoler, and recovered damages. A writ of error was then filed, and the defendant finally is ued an injunction to suspend the plaintiff's proceedings. The consequence was, that the judgment was never 'era vered. The verdict must be for the plaintiff, and the question of damages was for the consideration of the Jury. His Lordship concluded by recommending a temperate verdict. The Jnry, after some consideration, returned a ver dict for the plaintiff—Damapes 1,0001. WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, JAN. 8. The Sessions commenced yeste , day morning, before F. Cows; EA. and a Bench of Magistrates. After the usual preliminary busir.ess, Mr. C. PHILLIPS was heard on the part of certain inhabitants of the Vausball Bridge toad, again.t w hom a distress had been levied for the pa) ment of watching and lighting rates. The rates had been levied under Lord Grosvenor's Act, and payment was twisted on the ground that the road was nut within the jurisdiction of the Trustees. After a good deal of uninteresting discussior, a de. cision was given in favour of Lord Gtos•enor, the inha bitants compounding by paying 2(h. instead of 91. the amount claimed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL Canner ro Anaus.a.—Juba Tborsby, one of the eMeersof the Society, c►arged the driver of Peter Wheat's cart, Dana ennoty, with brutally kicking on the head, and beating with the handle of a whip, a poor starved looking hone, which hdd apparently fdlltn to the ground from esbauetlen, under a heavily loaded cart of mortar, near Hoorlields. Thonby said the bone groaned piteously from the ill treatment, and Crooey was very insolent. Cramp said, that be bad occasion to go up an alley on the day In question, and soon atter be left his cart be heard the hone make a noise, and be returned immediately, and found that the animal had clashed itself in the collar, and had fallen. He only used the whip, and took other necessary steps to get it upon its legs again. Alderman—But you keep a starved horse that is not At for your hard work. Crony.—Tbe officer said it was starved, and all that I said, your Worship, was, you are not very fat yourselL But the hone was not our own, we bad only borrowed it for a day or two. Alderman—What did you feed him on during that day or two? Croney—Hay and chaff was the best that we could afford him, and be had plenty of that. Alderman--You know you ought to give it corn. —Aye, and I ought to have corn myself; but I cannot get C h7e n 2for my family. This was the last lash of Crony's jocularity, for, on being in formed of the eztent of the penalty incurred, he shed tears in profusion, and said he had not aviary to get his family bread. " Never mind, father, don't cry," said a girl who stood at his el bow. In consideration of his contrition and puveny, the Alder. man let him off for the expense of the summons, and gave him an _admonition. • A decently dressed woman, named Mary Ilehteas, was brought before Mr. Alderman AMOLST yesterday under the following charge. Mr. Butcher, the managing agent at Messrs. Broughant's wholesale carpet warehouse, in Skinner-street, stated that the prisoner's hus band bad been employed by the Arm as a porter about four years. Latterly various articles bad been missed from the premises, and the porter being tatted with having taken sway some of them. con fessed be had done so, and brought them back. Two pair of win dow curtains were missed sibsequently, and the porter was ques tioned about them as before, but be denied having taken them. Mr. Botcher told him, that not withitaading this denial be suspected him, and would send for an °Boer • upon which the porter began crying, begged for mercy, and ac knowledged he had pledged the curtains at Mr: Reeves's, on - Snow-hill. He produced a sovereign, and said, if Mr. Butcher would allow him to step home for the depilate, he would redeem the articles instantly. Mr. Botcher. however, persisted in sending fur a constable ; the constable re fused to attend, and the complainant was authorising an assistant to & home with the potter, and search his lodging, when a ens touter entered : complainant's attention was distracted, and the porter slipped out, and bad not been heard of since. His apart meat, in Ironmonger -street, St. Luke's, was searched soon after, but the porter bad been home before the racer arrived, and nothing remained to criminate him. Upon inquiry at the pawn broker's the curtains were discovered, and also a piece of carpeting, pledged for 41. only two or three days previously. It had been stolen from the warehouse, but bad not been missed. On Wednes day evening the prisoner attempted to redeem the curtains, and was detained. ptiso7wr said she was ordered by her husband to redeem the curtains, and restore them to Mr. Butcher._ _ _ As there was Do doubt she was thelawftd wife of the porter, the Alderman decided that the law would assume she acted under the influence of her husband, and dismissed ber ; but directed the money she was about to pay to the pawnbroker to be given to the complainant. ROW—STREET.. Yesterday a Gentleman from Lord Stafford waked upon Sir R. Mania to know if he bad ascertained, at the Home Ogee, whether the sentence of Mrs. Stamp Cooke Sutton had been commuted through the interest of his Lordship, as stated by Capt. PettinghalL Sir R. BIRKIII observed, that he bad made the necessary inquiry, and from all that he could learn there vas no truth whatever in the statement, and he believed that there was as little foundation foe the other circumstances related by Captain Pettingball connected with Lord Stafford and Mrs. Cooke. The Goodman said that an affidavit was preparing which would show the real facts, and completely exculpate Lord Stafford. He then thanked Sir It Dirnia.and withdrew.
