LAW REPOR ". COURT OF CHANCERY, Jinni S. fdR. WELLESLEY AND FHB DUKE OF szAupoter. Mr. SHADW ELL, soon after his Lordship . had taken seat, alluded to the affidavit which had been pre pared by Mr. Pittman, and which he had on a former day presented just at the rising of the Court.. This affi davit had been made according to his Lordship's direc tions. He now held in his hand a brief of the original affidavits, upon which his Lordship had made some notes. He had received it from his friend Mr. Beanies, and he was now ready to return it, together with copies of the' other different affidavits made on the part of the peri tioners. He was also anxious that a matter should be • set right upon which there appeared to have been some r oioinderstanding. Some correspondence had taken Mace between the Duke of Wellington. and the Misses and it was his Grace's wish that it should be un- L'erstood that the representation made in Court,, that the application to keep the children where they now were h .d met with the concurrence of all brancires of the fa n; ly, was no' quite correct. In the last letter written I , y his Grace to the Misses Long on the subject, was expressed a wish that a communication should be made to his Lordship ; and the Learned Counsel thought it could not be more correctly stated than by reading the worth of the letter so received. The statement as to the interference of the different branches of the family was made on the 11th of April. The words of his Grace were, that he had consented to accept the guardianship of the children, at the time the Lord Chancellor had or dered the Master to fix upon 'guardians, to take charge of them during the absedce of their father. His Grace had, at the same time (for reasons not now necessary to be stated) desired to have nothing to say to any pro ceeding in Chancery upon this subject, or with a view of supporting the appointment of guardians, after the apointment should have been made by order of the Court. It was, therefore, an error to say that the Duke had ever expressed any wish or desire in respict of the result of the suit. As he had thus stated the language used by his Grace to the Misses Long upon the subject, he thought he should riot be doing justice to Lord Mary borough and the Gentlemen who acted as SolLitors for the Misses Long, if he did not make his Lordship ae go:shoed with their view of the question. Mr. Mar, who bad just that minute entered the Curt, asked if it was Mr. Wellesley's case which was under discussion.? Mr. SHADWELL answered in the affirmative; and stated that he had just been reading the letter of the Duke of' Wellington. Mr. MIT expressed his surprise that the inauer should have been thus unexpectedly mentioned. The LORD CHANCELLOR repeated, that Mr. Shadwell had oily confirmed Mr. Hart's statement, so far as it went, that the Duke of Wellington took no part in the case. The fact was, these things got into the newspa pers, and people naturnly liked to have them set right. Mr. • SHADWELL observed, that his Lordship was always kind enough to give Counsel an opportunity of setting themselves right. He was about to state, when he was interrupted by Mr. Hart, that the letter he had alluded to was written in consequence of a letter writ ten by Lard Maryborough to Mr. Hutchinson, the Si licitor, in which his Lordship, after stating that he per fectly approved of all the steps which had been taken by the Misses Long, and that he disapproved of the con duct of Mr. Wellesley, went on to observe, It may be well to inform you, that there is no branch of the family who do not join in approbation of the conduct of the Missesiong,and in reprobation of that of Mr.Wellesley.' . _ The Learned Counsel then handed up Alr. Pittman's affidavit. Itlr. MKT said, that if he were not greatly mistaten,hisLordship would have a very iuiportant affidavit presented on Tuesday nest. COUItT OF KING'S BENCH, Joss 5. CERTIORARI. Mr. CAMPBELL moved for a rule to show cause why a writ of Certiorari should not issue to remove an indictment from Staffordshire into this Court, for the purpose of entering a suggestion on the record, that a fair trial could not be had in that county. The indictment was against cettain persons for a misde meanour, in having ill-treated a lunatic relative, by shutting him up in a dark room for a great many years, and depriving him of the neces-aries of life, although ample provision had been made for him by Lis father's will. In consequence of the most inflamed and exagge rated Fublications respecting this transaction in the county of Stafford, it was utterly impossible that the de fendants could have a fair trial there; and it became ne cessary, u ith a view to the dne administration of justice, that the indictment should be removed, in order to a trial in some other county. Under the circumstances, a rule Nisi was granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Jose 3. THE NEW CUETOII4•HOUSETHE KING V. PETO. The ATTORNEY GENERAL moved for a rule to thew cause why a verdict should not be entered for the Crown, on the issue found by the Jury agaitut the de fendant in this case, and judgment entered acordingly non obstanie veredic.ich The Jury:found, that there was a stratum of gravel into which the piles could be driven, without the 'qua lification,lut adding, that Mr. Peto would have driven the piles into the bed of gravel, were it not for the inter ference of Mr. Laing. Mr. Scanarr read two letters from Mr. Laing to the Commissioners, to spew that even after the building had been completed, Mr. Laing was of opinion that a stratum of gravel could not be discovered. Had he been enabled to offer these in evidence at the trial, he was satisfied the Jury would find all the issues in favour of his client. He therefore hoped the Court would allow -• him the privilege of using these letters, and advancing other topics in support of a new trial, in caselie shoUld deem it expedient to make a motion to that effect. After a few words from the ATTORNEY-GSNESAL and Mr. Baron HULLOCK, shewing the irregularity of the application, Mr. SCARLETT was allowed to take his risk in the alternative, to thew cause either why a ver dict should not be entered for the defendant on all the issues, non obstante veredicto—or (in case the Court was of opinion that the issue for the Crown was material), shy a new trial should not be granted. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL ti.ok his rule, which was in the alternative, to sliew cause, why either ~dgnient should not be entered up for the Crown on Inc issue found; or why a new trial should not be granted on the issue, finding that Mr. Laing was a.nhorized by the Commissioners to give directions respecting the piling, &c. ARCHES COURT, Jura 3. LADY AMIENS AGAINST LOAD VISCOUNT AMIENS. This is a suit of separation and divorce promoted by the Vis cuLntess Amiens against her husband, the eldest son of the Earl of AL:41:0LO. 1 ):. LIiSIIINGTON stated, that these proceedings were insliz,:ted by reason of adultery committed by Lotd Aro.ens. The allegation which he now prayed the ‘onrt to admit to proof, pleaded, in substance, to this effect—that the marriage between these parties took' place in Scotlan i in the year 1804, the ceremony being there performe,i in a private house by the Rev. Dr. Muchter, the Clergyman of the parish, according to the rites and ceremonies of the Scottish Kirk ; that they continued to live and cohabit together until April 1810. when Lord Amiens, then the Hon. S-ratfoid, eloped with a Mrs. Newcombr, with whom Ise had ever since continued to live in a state of adultery. Dr. JENWER, who appealed for Lord Amiens, ob jected to-the admission of this allegation, on the grounds that the Scottish registry of the marriage was pleaded very informally, and that the representations made on behalf of Lady Amiens herself by no means sufficiently accounted for the extraordinary delay which must have elapsed in regard to serving the citation of this Court and the commencement wf proceedings here. Dr. DOMON followed on the same side. Dr. LUSHINGTON, in reply, contended that the Court could not feel disposed to attach any weight to the last exception which had'been taken by his Learned Friends to the admissibility of this allegation, because, until within a very recent period indeed, Lord Amiens had been living in a condition and under circumstances that afforded to the wife no chance of ultimately obtaining from him either alimony or costs. With respect to the informality which the Court's attention had been called to, there would be no objection to alter and amend the plea in that pat Ocular, if the Court should be of opi nion that it required such amendment. Sir JOHN Nrctrou. concurred in the opinion of the Counsel for the husband, that the registry of this ntarriige was informally pleaded. It shoull have been stated that the registry (as well as the marriage itself) was according to the law and custom of Scot land. The libel being reformed in this instance, might he admitted. GRANITE AND CLAY COMPANY. Saturday, a Meeting of the S'iareholders of the Granite and Clay Company was held at the New Eng land Coffee house. On the motion of several Shareholders, Wm. CLARLIC, Esq, was called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN stated the object of this Meeting to be for the purpose of ascertaining what measures would' be most conducive to the recovery of the deposits a'ready advanced up(l the different Shares. He thought that, they must resort to legal measures, and those of a cri minal nature, as he was fully satisfied that there were facts connected with the formation of this Company, as well as with the disbursemsnt and outlay of its funds, as would fully war: an' their taking criminal proceedings against the guilty par ties. But though he was convinced of that fact, he still thought a milder course might be pursued, and with no inconsiderable advantage to the interests of the Company. An offer had been made to him, as well as to other gentlemen, upon this subject, which, if acceded to, would prevent the trouble of cri minally proceeding. The gentleman who made the offer was acquainted with the plan upon which the Company was first got up: in short, he was aware of all their - secret goings on, and he offered to proceed, if he received, as a remuneration, a sum equal to five shillings in each share, in the event of success. For himself, he thought the offer a very fair oaa, and indi vidually he considered it the best mode of obtaining even a partial return of their deposits, and he no proposed !to the Meeting, that the person who had made the offer should be empowered to act on the ttrms he had ' already stated. A gitARKIIOLDER concurred with the Chairman,. in thinking the off, r to be very fair, and, at the same time, very advantageous to the Company. They could lose nothing, and something might be gained, and at all events, the msl•practices of certain patties ‘sould not fail to be exposed, and the public put upon their gtrucl against being made the dupes of false and scandalous designs. A Suanamor.sas begged to differ from the last speaker. He thought five shillings a share quite an enormous charge. Why not indict the Directors at once? Such a mode of proceeding would I be cheaper and more certain. Mr. HANCOCK said, that he had been sent down to inspect the mines, and that almost every day since his return to London (the Cornish people having become aware of his address), he was annoyed by the arrival of parcels of clay, of stone, of sand, with the request that he would purchase the lots of which samples had thus been forwarded to him. Every one of the writers begged his interest with the London Directors, with a view to the formation of Companies to Mork. the different mines, but not one had thought of paying for the carriage of those parcels. In short, the quantity sent to him would now almost constitute a museum of itself.—(Laughter.) A desultory conversation then took place, but it was finally put and carried, that the Shareholders should pay a suns equivalent.to five shillings on each share to the person making the offer, in the event of his obtaining their deposits from the Directors. A packet has been dispatched to Porto Bello to take General BOLIVA R on board to convey him to Carthagena. His army was alsoexpected at Porto Bello from Peru. Letters from Monte Video to the 18th March have been received ; their contents are unimportant, as far as relates to politics. They represent all descriptions of exports scarce, and trade *as extremely dull. The Gazette of Saturday contains the KING'S Procla mation for dissolving Parliament, which, with the Pro clamation for summoning the Scots Peers, were given exclusively in the STAR of Friday. The Election for London is to commence on Fridty. The workmen this morning began erecting the hust ings in front of the Town Hall, Borough, for the South wark election, which will begin on Wednesday morning. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT SEA—Extract of a letter from an Officer on board the Owzu GLENDOWER, dated from the Cape of Good Hope, March 14: " lam sorry it should be my province to relate the following unfor tunate accident that happened to part of the crew of his Majesty's ship OWIN GLENDOWEE. On Friday, the 'Odle M rcb, between five and six P.m. as our pinnace (the Test boat we had in the ship), was returning with part of our men, to the number of thirty-five, who had been employed on shore, including our first Lieutenant and two Midshipmen, it blowing very fresh, she shipped several seas, and when within only one hundred or a hundred and fifty yards of the ship, a sea struck her on the weather bow, and a sudden gust of wind springing up, caused her to give a heavy lurch to leeward, when she immediately filled, and was seen by myself and others to capsize, and notwithstanding an immediate alarm was given, and every exersion used to save the crew, I lament to say, that out of thirty five, twenty brave f Bows were consigned to a watery grave. I cannot close this melancholy detail, without mentioning the distress this melancholy catastrophe has occasioned to our good Commander, bis Lady, and Family, and likewise to all our crew; nor can I omit mentioning the praiseworthy c./nduct of a man of colour, named Jo. Erns WARNER, who, by his meritorious exertions, was the means of saving oar first Lieutenant KING, and Mr. PAKTLE, Midshipman ; likewise two seamen out of the fifteen who were rescued."

" THE GENERAL." The Committee of the Jockey Club brought their inquiry into the circumstances connected with the is General", to a conclusion on Saturday, and we understand came to the resolutios that Mr. Farquharson had failed in making out the ease he had stated. They also conveyed to him their opinion that he ought to apologise to Mr. Thornhill for the observations he had made, and the language he had used. Mr. Farquharson positively refused to retract any thing he had uttered on the subject, being conscientkody•convinced, he said,,tbat the impressions he entertained were fully justified. He added, that in bringing forward the charge, he had bees influ enced solely by a sense of justice to the public, and by a persuasion that the fact of the General being prevented from starting was a circumstance so invqlved in-mystery, jhat it demanded the most rigid inquiry. His o*h losses, he said, did not exceed 1751. or that as far as he. was 'personally concerned, it was a matter of no great importance: The report of the Committee will of course be laid before the body of the Jockey Club at large ; but whether soy further proceedings will be deemed necessary, we know. not. At present Mr. Farquharson and Mr. Thornhill are at issue, while a great portion of the public continue to think that Mr. Farquhar son's suspicions are well founded. NVe stated on Friday that the General had been purchased by the Duke of Portland, for 15001. It was yesterday publicly reported that his Grace had re-sold him for 20001. and that he willter.ainly run for the St. Leger, at Doncaster. He •is also entered for the 2001. Sweepstakes to-morrow at Ascot ; but we think it improbable he will run, as it is now said be is really unwell, TROTTING MATCH.

Half the distance at Salt. hill, or rather the corner of Burnham-lane, was completed in two hours and 20 minutes, and 40 miles to the barracks was done in four hours and 57 minutes. Friday afternoon, a scaffolding in . Moiay-place, Edinburgh, on which two masons were employed, at the height of five stories, gave way, a. , cl they wqe pre cipitated to the ground and killed on the spot. .
