The bc . autiful Royal Tennis Court, in Great Windmill-street, which is of consider-ably larger dimensions than the Fives Court, w-s opened yeAerday, and most probably it never was, nor never will again be, crowded. It was fir the benefit of Richmond, under particular patronage, and was tilled chiefly by Gentlemen Nrhoie faces are not known in the Prize Ring. The setting-to wa; also s,,perior to anything of the kind for years, and could not fail giving eclat to fae thing. It was as follows : 2.:,;n and Cyrus Daeis exhibited a fine display of manliness and science, in nine rounds. B zerl Harmer and ragmen, the Gas-light man.—This was a set-td of a different complexion altogether. Harmer is a man finished science, although blind of an eye; and Rickman is one cf those bold fellows formed for fighting, rsthtr than for spar iing, as he does ant understand tapping with the gloves—or, in other words, he must hit out. Harmer did the same, and they mazzltbd each other in good earnest. Ha!t and deaf Davis made a good set-to, which was in fa voix of the former. B..4:tntirt Burg and Larkin.—This was an excellent set-to, L'Jd the men, who are very intimate, left friendship in the strip pi:l:,-eoorn with their tvgcr . i, until their return; it was altogether an X.:l :lent bout. the Cuampion ; and Ibbert Burn, a1e..0 received forfeit of Spring late:y.—This was a manly set to, but Cribb's tactics g.tv.: him the bast, ahlicagh he was often hit ; but it is always p . tasing to see the manner in which he fearksaiy goes up to his adversary's head and shaves him. were ether minor set-tos, which wete not warthnotice, excepting that between Richmond' and Belcher, which was the ft..isi!.

Mr. TartsLovre moved that John Kaye and another,' two of the defendants in this cause, should be com mitted to the custody of the Warden of the Fleet Prison, for a contempt of Court, in not having paid into Court the sum of £153, as ordered. TheVicE-OHANcELLoR asked, were they in custody? Mr. TRESLOVE answered in the affirmative. Motion granted. APPEALS PROM HIS HONOUR'S DECISIONS. The VICE-CHANCELLOR observed, he wished it to be understood that in any thing he was about to say, he did not mean to cast any reflections on the conduct of the Bar, or any part of it. The manner in which Appeals were conducted from that branch of the Court, when brought before the Lord- Chan cellor, required considerable animadversion ;fo . rhis Lordship was generally taken by surprize when the Appeals came on to be heard before him, as a new case was stated to him, and he was left ignorant of the grounds on which he (his Honour) built his de cision. Ho had had a long conversation with his LorkLhi2 on the subject, who was of opinion with him, that such a course could not be tolerated, as it tended to bring tha_ branch of the Court from whence the Appeal was made, to the higher branch, into disrespect and disrepute. He trusted this would be the last time he should be under the necessity of adverting to the subject. -COURT 01 4 KING'S BENCH, FEBRUARY 29. iroxii.4sl V. DOWLING. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, draF.er, residing at Bognor, in Sussex, against the de fen:Lint, Mr. 4. Dowling, an occasional visitor to that watering place, to recover a compensation in da mages for the injury the plaintiff's character had sus taine.i by his being publicly posted. in the Readiug Room, and other public places at Bognor, as a piti ful coward, and a pusillanhnous mongrel." T!le defence set up was, that the . plaint;ff had grossly insulted the defendant's wife, aAd having re ta,.ed all apology,. the defendant pursued the course stated in the declaration. The L 9150 CHIEF JUSTICE seemed to think the matter-might be amicably arranged. Mr. SCAELETT stated, that his client Wit he had transgressed the law, and ti:at there!t:re a verdict must pass againq him. It as, however, due to him to say, that he had proceeded fi Lim a ccnviction that his wile had been most gtosslv insulted ; and the Learned Counsel was sure the Jury would go with Kira, when he said, that towards his vile this Ganleman owed every protection. ifs client was; however, willing to submit to a verdict Gf £5. Mr..MA uny.trr, on the part of the plaintiff, said his,client was not willing to press the meter further. Ti.ismanife4tCon of regret was quite sufficient for his client ; and he hoped the verdict would protect him is future. Any sum, as damages, was egtially the same to him. Mr. SCARLETT begged it might be understood, that the plantiff was also to abstain from all provo cation ia fatnre. To this Mr. MARRYATT assented. The ?dry, under the direction of his Lordship, found a ~ I•er2.ict for the plaintiff accordingly. DA V" AND CLARK V. SADDLER. The plAintift's in this case were barge proprietors, icsid;ng at Staines, where thev. had a wharf, and were in the hahit of carrying goods generally for the l',:blic. In t:iey -were applied to by the ~ .iefeadaat, a dealer in hay, to carry five loads and a half tram Staines, and to deliver it at Messrs. Devy antlCo.'s London. Th hay was put en board the barge, ;Ind -di:livered in due course at Devy's warthouxs i,t I.or,Lon. The usual charge for the carriage of Intv by barge front Staines. to London is half a-guinta a lood, and half-a-crown for delivery, azd the picstnt a,nion was brought to recover the sun, Sue id: the cal riage of' the bay in question. The question !:etv.-een the parties appeareA to he, •Alle;her Messrs. Devy cr. the defendant should pay the carriage ? The Cllll4 JusiicE observed, there could be no ground for Charging the defendant with the carriage. The plaktilf, uFun this intimation, agreed to be nont CONSISTORY COURT. • DIVORCE IN BCT.ANY BAY. Dr. Usti! N GTO X, in this case observed, that a Mr. `,V. Bland, a rurceon, was, about the year 1512, trans poi ted to Botany Bay, in crn-.3equence of having been unfortunately engaged in a thtel in this country. At Botany Bay he contracted a marriage with the daugh ter of as Ent fish free!sezticr, and she .shortly after wai ds committed adultery. An action was then brought by this Gentleman in the Supreme Court of Botany Bay, and he gained, as plaintiff, a :erdicz of 4:20b0 damages. the time of Mr. Bland's transpor tation haring now expired, he wished to proceed for a divorce; but these difficulties occurred:—there was no other Ccurt in Botany Bay to which he could appeal ; and although there was a Supreme Court in the East Indies, it had only a criminal jurisdiction.— The Learned Counsel proceeded to say, that he had made every inquiry, but in vain, as to proceedings in a similar case; no similar case could he find; but it was laid down in all the books of authority, as a .general principle, that tl , , Bishop of London had jurisdiction over all the olonies. Notwithstanding that he fled made every search, in the absence of any .precedents, to find out upon what principle this ob. sereaeion of the law-books was founded, he had not' as yet been able to trace its origin. There were only two cases that.he could cite to the Court ; ene was that of King v. Moustell, otherwise Tenducci, which was a suit of nullity of marriage by reason of im potence. In the citation, Tenducci was described as of the 'Parish of St. Martin-in-the-fields, London. The Officer who was to serve it, found that he had quitted his house in the Haymarket upwards of 18 months before, accl had gone to Italy. The Court refused further proceedings, till it could ascertain Whether or no Tenducci had been certified of the suit. The citation was finally served on the party at Na pies, and in the year 1754., the Judge of the Con sistory Court admitted the libel, and after that, no appearance having been given, the Court pronounced for the nullity. The other was a still stronger case, and occurred in 1789 ; then a citation was served 1 upon a certain party resident in the island of Gre: uada, in the West Indies. A decree., by ways r. and means, issued, 2nd the party was' subsequently ' excommunicated. The excommunication was re turned, and shortly after a decree was obtained to stay proceedings ; but he (Doctor Lusliington)' could not find that any sentence was ever given in that case. It was, however, sufficient to establish. this Court's jurisdiction, and in the present instance the Court would see that his client would have no remedy, unless it should be 4)le:.sed to allow the citation he prayed to issue; in that case it was intended that the citation should be'served personally in Botany Bay, by the proper Officer. The Learned Counsel assured the Court, that, notwithstanding the unfortunate event tf this duel, Mr. Bland was a most respectable man. Sir W. SCOTT considered that the Court had the requisite jurisdiction, and granted the citation.

CUMBERLAND ASSIZES. Thursday evening the Judge of Assize (Mr. PARK) entered Carlisle, and shortly afterwards proceeded to open the Court in the usual fbrm ; when it was ad journed to the following day. Friday morning his Lordship attended Divine Service at the Cathedral, %% hen the Rev. Mr. tow, of Workington, preached from '2 Peter, c. '2, and 16th verse—" As free, ands not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of Goo." About one o'clock, Mr. Justice Pang came into Court, and his MAJESTY'S Proclamation against vice avid immorality being read, and other-minor rou tine business disposediof, the Grand Jury were sworn. His LqIIDSHIP, in noticing the state of the Calen dar, said it did not seem to call for any, particular remark, unless it was its containing the names of some very young persons; it was proper that it should be understood that youth did not save the party from the punishment due to the perpetration of crime. Alluding to the late expressions of popu lar discontent, his Lordship said, that he was happy to.learn, that so far as the disturbances existed in this county, the exertions for their suppression had been effectual; and he hoped and prayed they might so continue. In all conditions of society the peaceable must be protected from the lawless. One object which his-Lordship had in view, in dwelling on this subject, was to convey to those who heard him, that it was not because the evil doers were unknown to the Magistrates and the Government that they escaped, but to lenity ; and his Lordship hoped and trusted that this lenity and forbearance will convince those that have been led astray, that the Magistrates are their friends. -His Lordship concluded with re marking on the blasphemous and seditious publica tions which have lately issued from the Press, to the destruction of youth. On this subject his Lordship professed his inability-to descant in the eloquent lan guage which, on the same topic, he had just heard in the Cathedral, from the Sheriff's Chaplain; but, as it was a Subject which belonged to the Bench as well as the Pulpit, he felt that it became him to make a few observations. The author of these publica tions have rot only attacked the administration of justice, which, said his Lordship, .4 I declare to GOD; as far as I know, is pure," but have dared to attack the AUTHOR of their BEINO. No case of this sort had to come before the Grand Jury; buthis Lordship hoped they would, for GOD'S sake, be vigilant in watching the work of sedition and blasphemy, which had been overspreading the 'mid; and this vigilance, his Lordship was confident, they would exercise, knowing that they were men, that they were Eng lishinen, that -they were-Christians.

His conduct was the consequence of gross intoxication. This omission was attendedmith the most setious injury to Mr: Oxberry, and might eeave beat the ruin of the work; as the subscribers, not Teceivilg it in the usual way; would discontinue it, supposing it to be dropped.--t The prisoner did not deny the charge.

DESTRUCTION OF A VILLAGE.—They write from Lausanne, under the date of February 15—A deplo , rable event occurred on the 17th of December, in the valley of Visp, in Vallais, by the sudden detachment of a part of the glacier of Weiphorn, which has de- , stroyed a great part of the village of lianda. It was about six oklock in the morning that a frightful aoike announced to the inhabitants of the valley the danger in which they were placed. Neither the glacier itself, however, nor its fragments touched any part of the village ; bat the pressure of the ails,. caused by its tumbling down, tore up trees, destroied -cattle, and overthrew houses. Roofs of hou , blocks of stone and ice, were carried away to a eau. siderable distance. A very great number of cattle, the only N resource of this Alpine people, perished.- -Twelve individuals were .baried under the ruins ; ten were extricated, living, by the prompt assistance given diem ; ; the remaining two were crushed under a heap of rubbish. Deplorable as is the situation of these unfortunate persons, it is feared that they may . still suffer snore severely. As the precipitation of the glacier was confined to one part of it, and as the other part threatens a similar visitatioveg this un happy country, the destruction of the remainder of the village is very probable, and the only resource which the inhabitants have left is, to abandon a ten i tory, which, if they remain there, will become their generalgrave.
