LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Awn: Is. Although yesterday was the last day for hearing causes in open Court, his Lordship, in pursuance of notice to that effect, 3 , d in compliance with the earnest request of several Counsel, sat in his private room, and was there engaged for a few hours. Mr. MONTAGU' made several motions of an urgent nature in bankruptcy, but of no public interest. Some matters in lunacy were also mentioned by Mr. Whit marsh, and a few orders were made upon them. ' No judgments were delivered by his Lordship, but we understood that it was his intention to give judg anent; on stated days during the vacation, and due no• tice would be given to the different part;es concerned. His Lordship intimated, that next week he would ap point a day for the delivery of some judgments. These will not be given in open Court, and the parties inter ested only will have notice of them. After having disposed of all the applications, his Lordship lett his private room, and proceeded in his carriage to hi, country seat. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Aug. 18. P. Goldsmid, Esq. was opposed, in endeavouring to obtain his discharge, by Mr. BARRY, for thirteen cre ditors, on the ground, that, as he had not accounted, in his special balance-sheet for the expenditure of the pro teeds of his estate, he could not pass the Court. The CHIEF COMMISSIoNER directed the facts of the whole case to be inquired into, reserving Mr. Barry's objec tion for further consideration. From questions put to the insolvent, it appealed, that his agents had, in 1824, re ceived 18661. out of the Court of Chancery,which was not accounted for. whereupon the creditors' Counsel raised another objection to an immediate discharge,urging that the creditors ought, at all events, to be apprised of the manner in which these assets had been applied. The insolvent was ultimately remanded, sine die, to ffle an agount, and give due notice of his next application.— e CH= Commtaalowsit said, that there was nothing proved against the insolvent, which shewed that he had bees guilty of fraudulently contracting debts, or that he, (the Chief Commissioner) thought would ultimately throw any stigma on his character. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MAIDSTONE, AvaesT 17. The Assites for this County commenced here this day, about one o'clock, before Mr. Justice Gnus.** on the Crown Side, and Mr. Justice PARK on the Civil Side. The business promises to be very heavy. There *re thirty-one causes set down for trial, eight of which are Special Juries, and the Calendar contains the names of 125 prisoners. The Learned Judges did oot arrive in the town until late last night. CIVIL SICK. BARTLETT V. SOUVILLBe This was an action fur negligence. Plea, Not Guilty. Mr. Guntmt and Mr. LAW conducted the plaintiff's cace. and Mr. Mallet/LT and Mr. PLATT the defendant's. Tne plaintiff was a needle manufacturer in Worcester• shirr, and the defendant was the Captain of the French steam pactekthe Dnc de Bourdeaus, running between Darer and );alai'. _ In October, 182.5, the plaintiff forwarded to Mr. Morris, a merchant at Dover, a case, • containing about a million and a half of needles, with some bodkins • and knitting pins, and weighing about 400 weight, to be sent to Calais. Mr. Morris had the case taken down to the Quay, alongside of which the defendant's packet was lying, for the purpose of its being put on board. The defendant was not on board, but his Mate agreed to put the case on board at his own risk ; and it was proved to be the universal custom at Dover for goods to be shipped on board vessels of all descriptions, by the labour and at the risk of the ship. owners. The Mate was informed of the weight, the value, and contents of the case. The crew, under the directions of the Mate, slung the case in a rope, and were hoisting l it on board when the rope broke, and the case was precipitated into the sea. The value of the case and its contents was 40N. and the amount of the damage done by the sea water, together with the ex pense of repolishing the needles, was 270 i. This sum was demanded of the defendant, and he refusing to pay it, the present action was brought. This was the case proved on the part of the plaintiff. For the defendant, three of the clew of the Duc de B iurdeaux, all French men. were examined (through the medium of an in terpreter), and swore, in substance, that the Mate expressly refused to take any pirt in shipping the case, except on the responsibility of Mr. Morris; that it was attempted to be shipped by them at the desire of that Gentleman, and after an explicit declaration by him that he would be responsible for any accident that might occur ; that they wished the shipment to be made in a different mode, but that the slinging the case in a rope was the method insisted upon by Mr. Morris; and that it never was the habit, in ca'es of steam packets, for the shipowner to have any thing to do with shipping the goods, or to be responsible for them until they were actually placed upon the deck. A witness was also called, who stated, that after the accident bad happened, he heard Mr. Morris say that the French sailors were not to blame, for that the accident was en tirely owing to himself. The case went to the Jury upon this contradictory evidence, and they, after a few minutes' deliberation, found their verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 1 tug Euudred and Seventy Pound,. CROWN BfDC. Edward Banks and James Rogers were indicted, the former for stealing, and Coe latter for receiving, knowinit it to be stolen, a mare mule, the property of William Dimming, Esq. on the lit of August last, at Sandridge. The prosecutor, Mr. Manning, was a Gentleman of for tune, well known in London as one of the Directors of the Bank of 4ngland, and having a country residence at Sandridge, in this county. The prisoner Banks was in his employment. The loss of the mule from the prosecutor's premises was clearly proved, and she was some days afterwards found in the possession of Mr. Scambler, the livery stable-keeper, in Bishopsgate-street, London, to whom it appeared the prisoner Rogers had sold her, in the presence of Banks, they both stating at the time that she had been purchased by lingers of a Mr. Clarke, at Cambridge.—The prisoners offered no defence. The Jury found Banks Guilty, and acquitted Rogers. aHREWSBURY. stoma V. DAVINS AND Wilt. This was an issue directed by the Court of Chancery, to try , whether the plaintiff was the legitimate son of William and Mary Morris, and as such entitled to snc cced Ulf at law to estates in Wales, worth about 14001. per annum ? 'the trial lasted three days, and '' vast number of witnesses was called on both sides. It. appealed that Mr. and Mrs. Morris lived apart, but umd to visit—yet it was evident that Mrs. Morris was ac quainted with a Mr. Austin,and it was Jlegerl that the, plaintiff had been treated throughout as the latter's snn. l The question, therefore, was, whether Mr. Morris, the, lawful husband, had free access or intercourse as a married man, the law presuming where that is esta blished that the child is legitimate? The Jury returned a verdict for the defendants, thereby negativing the legitimacy. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Auo. 17. CIVIL 51DE....-.7EWSTER V. BELL. Mr. TomuNscor opened the pleadings, and stated that this was an action for trespass. Mr. BROUGHAM, in stating the case, said, that the plaintiff and defendant were near n-ighbours, and both Ladies far advanced in life. They lived at Allendale, but it would seem, that neither their years nor vicinity had produced that feeling that should exist amongst neighbours, for the venerable defendant did every thing she could to annoy and vex the plaintiff, who was at last obliged to resort to these proceedings to preserve her rights. The plaintiff and defendant occupy premises which abut each other, and a part of the plaintiff's land is formed into a lane, and over this lane the defendant was permittedto pass on foot, but she thought proper to claim a cart way, to which she, most undoubtedly, was not entitled, and to which she had laid no claim in her plea. Betty Ross stated, that she lived servant to the plain- tiff, who used to bait her horse in the lane which was hers. She had placed a small gate at the end of the lane, but not sufficiently ss ide for a cart to pass through ; yet the defendant's servants had drove through, by take' ing away the stones to which the gate shut. Cross-examined.—The lane is about twelve yards long, and not three yards wide. The defendant is a very elderly Lady, and has ceased managing her farm ' her self. By the JUDGE.—The road leads to Peggy Bell's field. —Her horse would sometimes go out of the fold into the lane. Several other witnesses were examined, who preyed that the lane belonged to the plaintiff's father, and that it was never used as a carriage way. Mr. CRESWELL said, if the cavalc tile of the defend-I ant's carts, which went along this lane, had been half to long as the suing of the plaintiff's witnesses, the deE fendant might have pleaded a justification ; but the expense of the plea, and of the witnesses to support it, would amount to much more than the matter was worth. The plaintiff had failed iii giving sufficient evidence of the lane being her property, neither had she proved that she had sustained one farthing damages. It was difficult to account for the ill will that subsisted between two persons who had lived as neighbours for nearly 40 years. There must have been some sinister advice, for if the plaintiff obtained a verdict, it was quite clear she could not profit by it. Mr. Justice BAYLEY said, the only question was, whether the lane belonged to the plaintiff? if so, she was entitled to a verdict. Verdict for the plaintiff—damages Is. Mr. Justice BAYLEY said, that as the tight of Ise lane came in question, he had na discre:ion, but must certify for the plaintiff, although he %%ished he could help it. EATON V. TROTTER.-ASSAULT AND BATTERY. M. Pottocx said that this was an action of assault and battery, brought by the plaintiff, who is a grocer, in Pilgrim-stieet, Newcastle, and one of the Surety of 11 Ftiends,who,it was well known,were remarkable for their peaceable behaviour ; they were seldom heard of being engaged in litigations of ..ny &act iption. The plaintiff was a man of vet y small s . atute ; arid the defendant, w ho is a master- builder,is a man considerably more powerful. The plaintiff, in the beginning of May, had a house in Brandling-place, which. amongst others in the same row, wasbuilt by the defendant. In the front of the houses was a footpath, which the defendant claimed as his own exclusively, and denied the general right of way— which had led to the cause of the present action. On the 3d of May, the defendant placed a strong wooden barrier across the path ; and on the plaintiff's return, home from business, about eleven o'clock at night, he could not get to his own door, but was obliged to go through the garden of the next house, and get over the fence into his own ground.. The defendant, who, it would seem, had bean w aiting fur him, before he could reach his own door struck him over the mouth with a bludgeon, and knocked out three or four of his teeth. He shortly after was let in by his servants ; they did rot see the blow struck, but they could prove the condition in which the plaintiff was wl en they came to the door; and they would also prove that the defendant was standing on the other side of the railing, flourishing his stick, and striking the plaintiff, who with great difficulty got into his own house. He also called the plaintiff a d—d rascally Quaker, and told him he had been setting a trap for him, and had at last caught him. Probably the fence was built with this view. The defendant had in flicted a permanent injury upon the plaintiff; but he would not ask such damages a. the Jury would expect had they been individually so treated, because there would be no bounds for such damages; but for this cruel,premeditated assault, he would ask for such serious damages as would act as a punishment to the defendant for his wicked conduct, and be some ccmpensation to the plaintiff for the injury he had received. Beipg a Quaker, he could not go into a Criminal Court, where evidence on oath only is admitted; his only remedy was therefore by a civil action. The plaintiff's apprentice and his housemaid proved the case. Three ut his teeth were broken, two close to the gums; his clothes were all over blood, as wet; the vones in front of the door. James Gilpin, a chymist, proved that the plaintiff called at his hou eon the 3d May, and he was then well and sober. Next day he saw him again, when th:re was a very severe cut on his lip, and thiev of his teeth were knocked out. Witness recommended lee:hes and medicine. John Trotter, a neiihbour, heard the defendant say, it was the dL.cl rascally Quaker, he had waited for him a long time, and had caught him at last. He heard him say, Niels , 11's gate was left open, and 1 nick'd him. Margaret Pickering proved that the wooden fence had been put up that day. Mr. Layton, a surgeon, proved the injury inflicted. He attended the plaintiff for a month before he reco vered. The plaintiff was a very thin, short man, and the defendant was thick set, and stood very near six feet high. Mr. BROUGHAM spoke at great length in mitigation ; and Mr. Justice BAYLEY having summed up, the Jury . found for the plaintiff—Damages WI. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Saturday R e hm Thomas Capiv, a respectable looking riling man. was placed at the bar on site kollowing charge of felony :—Thomas Sergeant, a waiter at the George and Vulture Tavern, airnhill, steed Apt on Friday the prisoner came into their house, and asked I for • vibes of sherry. On a table, adjoining the box in which he' sat, there lay a silver spoon, and near it the newspaper. The pri soner, on pretence of getting the latter, went to the table, and, covering the spoon with she paper, conveyed away both. The spoon he put in his pocket ; and the witness, having seen the whole trans action, challenged him with stealing the spoon. At first be denied having done so, and the witness asked to search him ; on this he sidled on the table on which the spoon had been, and taking it out of his pocket, placed it on the table; but, unfortunately for him, the spoon be took out belonged to Baker's Coffee-house. Witness, seeing this, had bins immediately apprehended ; and, on searching him, the spoon belonging to the George and Vulture was found in his pocket. This charge being fully made out, the Lotto Mayo& asked if any person from the coffee-house was in attendance? and was answered in the negative: on which his Lordship remanded the prisoner, declaring his intention to commit him on both charge., In order that one of Mr. Peel's Bills might operate with respect to him—namely, that which empowers the Judge, on a second con viction for a felony not punishable with death, to sentence the prisoner to a second term of transportation, commencing after the termination of that awarded him for the first offence. GUILDHALL. Mr. Humphries, the Solicitor, attended on behalf of the baker who, some days since, was presented by the Inquest of Cripplegate Ward for selling light bread, and having waited for upwards of an hour without any member of the Inquest appearing to prosecute the charge, he requested that the case might be dismissed, observing that, after an attentive perusal of all the Acts of Parliament bearing on the subject, he was satisfied the defendant could not be convicted, as his scales were perfectly correct, and that if any measures were taken against him, it could only be by an indictment at common law, for a cheat. Mr. Alderman CILOWDEZ was fearful that no conviction could take place, although it was quite evident a shameful fraud had been committed in the mode of weighing the bread by means of machinery concealed under the scale, by which be could act upon the weights ' to any extent he was disposed. hit. Humphries said that his client denied all intention of fraud ; it was possible, he added, that the machinery, or whatever it was, was made for the use of the public. The ALDERMAN replied that no one could believe otherwise ‘ tban that it was intended to deceive and impose on the public, and a scandalous hand it was. Mr. Humphries had, he said, no means of knowing that, but ha was convinced no offence had been committed of which a Magis trate could take cognizance. The ALDERMAN observed that he was bound to admit this, but be howl the public would not suffer themselves again to be deceived by him. Mr. Humphries—He is a young man in business, and has, 1 think, erred front inexperience. The ALDERMAN—Where does be live Mr. Humphries—ln Grub-street. The Atneasiaz—Well, I must discharge the case; but it is but right that his name and address should be known. The baker, who had been sitting behind his Solicitor, then rose, and requested to know if the scales, which bad been detained by the Inquest, were to be returned to him, and declared that he had been entrapped, as he had never intended to commit the fraud charged against him. The ALDERAIAN declined making any order on the subject, and intimated that it the Parish Officers should decide on proceedings against hint in another way, it would be necessary to produce the scales in Court. Mr. Earnshaw, with several Gentlemen of the Inquest, shortly afterwards came into Court, and apologised for being so lac They, however (if the case had not been dismissed), had ho new evidence tJ offer; and after a short conversation with the Magis trate and Mr. Beresford, as to the propriety of proceeding against the man at Common Lavr,they retired. ltbW- TIL EET. A journeyman gun-smith was brought before G. R. Minium., Esq. on Saturday, charged with most brutal cruelty towards his own dsughter, an interesting looking little girl, scarcely ten years of age, whose hands and arms appeared lacerated and bruised in a moat ahocking manner, the in.truments used by her father when correcting her bei n g an Iron ramrod or wins toasting fork.— A female, named Welsh, with whom he lived, was also accused of similar conduct. The charge was brought fcrward by the child's mother, who had been deserted by her liti.bantl, and left by him entirely destitute of support. The (Ace was crowded to excess by person. of both sexes, wbo attended to give evidence as to the treatment which she had received. Their testimony, however, was not called fur, as the poor child bore upon her thsse proofs that rendered all further in. quisy unnecessary.—The father and his strumpet were locked up. The young Frenchman who was detained in custody upon a charge of b.stardy, was discharged on Saturday, after giving the parish the indemnity they required. RATION -GARDEN. Atkinson, the informer, preferred an information against the ProphetOr of die Queen's Head Tavern, lied Lion-passage, for keepisti his house open at unseasonable hours; but the evidence of this precious informer's witness was, that the house was open at five minutes before twelve, wh he information stated the time to be fifty-fire minutes past twelve The information was conse quently dismissed. Atkinson's witness then swore, that Mr. Hart, of the Feathers Tavern, Hand -court, served Min with a glass of gin and peppermint, at five minutes past twelve, on Monday night.—Mr. Hart, however, brought several witnesses to prove that his house was a tavern, and used by the Gentkmen of Gray's Inn, who occasionally dined and supped at his house. No liquors were ever d over the bar. This inforniation was also dis missed. Two others followed, and were disposed of in a similar way, much to the satisfaction of a numerous body of respectable Licensed Victuallers, who were present, and to the evident morti fication of Atkinson and Co. who were amongst the missing in a very few seconds. DIARY-LA-BONNE. J,hn Case, a match-vender, who occupies a cellar In Mitcham street. Lisson.grove, was charged en Saturday with assaulting and beating Sarah, his wife. The old man, who walks with a mop-stick, makes good brim stone matches; but certainly bis matrimonial match was badly made, for he took to himself a wife young enough to be his descen dant in the fourth generation. The young woman complained to Mr. Hoaews and Lard Mom. FORT of his ill-treatment, in terms the reverse of straight forward, by declaring that be beat her yesterday, was at it again the day be fore, and had always been doing it ever since he married her. Mr. Hosictiis asked her with surprise—" Do you mean to say you are married to this old man?' " I mean to say she is my wife," replied old Cove, interrupting, " and a bad one she is, for she takes my things away from me." " I take nothing but my own," answered the young woman ; "you know that very well—and you know you keep another woman and starve me." Whether old Cove was vexed at this disclosure, or whether it pleased him to have his gallantry made known, did not appear ; but in pulling up his shirt collar he lost his perpendicular, and dis covered to the Magistrates that be had but one leg, such as nature gave him, the other being made of wood. " IS it possible," said Lord h10)17/01tT, " that you are really married t• this old man with one leg?" looking alternately at the moderately handsome features of the girl, and the immoderately ugly phis of the old man, ornamented by a beard of six days growth, like stubble in a white frost. "Is it possible ?" repeated his Lord ship? In answer to which the young woman replied, that she did it for the sake of support, and earnestly supplicated the Magistrates to grant her a divorce. Nor having this iu their power, they at tended to her request as far as their ability went, by binding old Cove to keep the peace, and advising her to keep out of his way ; and, if be did not maintain her, to apple' to the parish officers, and they would compel him. TOWN-HALL Irns. Laompshire, a mariner, was placed at the bar, on a charge of robbing John Roberts, mate of the schooner Falmouth, of Fal mouth, lying at Hayes' Wharf, of a silver watch, a shin, and silk handkerchief. The offence was attended with aggravating circum stances; the prisoner being out of employ, had wandered the streets all night, and at seven in the morning went on board the prosecu tor's ship, and begged of him, as they had been old shipmates, to let him rest in his cabin for an hour or so, which was granted, and he remained there till eleven, and then went away. At seven in the evening the prosecutor discovered his Ims, and had the prisoner taken at a !abuse In Bermondsey -street, carousing with several fe. males. The prisoner stoutly denied all knowledge of the property, but the Alderman telling him there was very little doubt of his guilt, committed hint fur further heating, that search might be made fm it. WORSHIP-STREET. .lake Burgess was ehargtd with stealing a horse, worth eighteen guineas, from Mr. Wickets, landlord of the Cock, at Cock-hill, Shadwell. It appeared that on the night of the 15th of May Mr. Wickers's stable was broken open, and the pony stolen. Next day,. in co:um:pence of information received by a couple of police officers, hey went to the residence of the piton' r its South hill, N.* ISrnmky, iu Kent, and broke open a stable, where they 'nand 4 pony. Prisoner said In his defence, that on the day in w'rek thi facers came icitis premises he had just returned home :tol l a ieurney, be found the pony ha his stable, but did not know how la came there. .--• • • Mn.s reckham, or whose ht•band the prisoner rears b:. hos * , said that on the day in question she met the prisoner on the ro.;, and he told bet there was a strange horse in the stable. One of the officers said, that when he apprehended the prison er , he stated that he did not steal the pony, but he could tell *ha brought it there. . . TIITIORD said he should commit the prisoner, and the de. positions were taken and read over to him for that purp bat - the prisoner being afterwards placed at the bar, Dlr. Twrroe u in. formed him that his Solicitor had been there, and stated ihe he bad instructions to defend him, and could bring witneese. to prove that he knew nothing of the horse. lie would therefore remand hint fur a week. A fashionably dressed Jew butcher was charged with havini passed a base sovereign to the landlord of the Fountain puhlic hoot,: City Road, but no base coin being found upon him Wht n he wa? apprehended, and the landlord being unable to product the sore; reign which he charged ham with having passed, the priiwitt west discharged. Another Jew was next exalts:fled, charged by the driver of ono of the Kilburn stage•, with having paid him a base hale-sserrien in payment of hii fare; but this prisoner also escaped, because the complainant, on receiving the coin, entrusted it fur some time to a Gentleman on the coach. _ SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
