LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, MAY 16. IN THE MATTER OT SIR GREGORY PAGE TURNER, A LUNATIC. Mr. HORNE presented a Petition, which prayed that this matter might be referred to the Master, that he might make a separate report for the maintenance of the infant daughter of the lunatic.—Prayer granted. IN TItZ MATTER OP TOUNO, A LUNATIC. Mr. Borrouns had a Petition, which stated that it had been referred to the Master, to inquire whether a lease or leases of the lunatic's property ought to be granted ; he had found it would be for the benefit of the estate that leases should be granted, and he had approved of the terms; the present application, there fore, was, that the Master's Report might be confirmed. Report confirmed. MORRIS V. DAVIS. Mr. TAUNTON appeared to shew a prima facie case, why this Court ought to direct a new trial, that the Court might decide upon whether or not it would send for the Judge's notes of the yid ? The issue directed out of this Court by Lord Eldon was, to try whether the plaintiff was the legitimate son of William and , Mary Morris, of Argoed ? It appeared by the evidence that the mother and father of the plaintiff were married, and lived together until the year 1788; that in-March in that year Mrs. Morris eloped from her husband's, house, and took up her abode at a place called Llan drink about sixteen miles distant, where she conti-, rued to reside until 1795. In May, 1788, articles' of separation were maw(' between Mr. and Mrs. l Morris, and from that time they lived apart. Before the elopement, a young man of the name of Austin *as taken into the house as footman; he afterwards l accompanied Mrs. Morris, became the manager of bei affairs, and soon appeared in a much more important character than he had befose assumed. Oa the 7th of January, 1792, the plaintiff in the 'present suit was, born, and his legitimacy was questioned on the grounds of Ms. Morris's separation from his wife, as well as on other suspicious circumstances which •belonged to the case. Austin, of whom be was supposed to be the child, went into the army, became a Captain, and dying abroad, bequeathed the whole of his property to the infant child of Mrs. Morris. That child, as soon as it was born, was carried out of Mrs. M.'s house, at midnight, and in very inclement weather, to the house of the father of Austin, who was an old man in very humble circumstances. It was contended also, that the resemblance borne by the plaintiff to the younger Austin was very striking ; and in support of this citcumstance a miniature pictare of Austin was handed to the Jury, to be compared with the plaintiff, who was in Court. On the other side, the answer given to the case was merely that Mr. Morris had ben seen in the neighbourhood of Mrs. Morris's abode, and that an intet view bad taken place between them about a fortnight before the birth of the child. The LORD CHANCELLOR asked whether the period at, _ which Mr. Morris's visits to Llandrath were alleged to have taken place included the time of parturition?— whether he was shewn to have been there inMarch 1791? Mr. AGAR said he was proved to have been at Lland• rath in the spring of that year. Mr. TAUNTON continued, and argued, that as the Judge had directed the Jury to find a verdict for the plaintiff, if they were satisfiei that the husband of Mrs. Morris might, by possibility, have had access to her during the period before the birth of the child, he had made out such a case as would induce the Court to call for the Judge's notes. The Loaf) CHANCELLOR thought that such a direction was too vague and general; and that as Mr. Morris, lived only 16 miles distant from Llandrath, there could be no doubt of the possibility of access. He was of opinion that a sufficient case had been made out for the production of the notes on the trial, which were accord ingly ordered, and the further argument consequently postponed. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, MAI , Ht. PRACTICE Or 'THE COURT. HoNoutt, in the course of the day, stated, that he had had a consultation with the Lord Chancellor on the subject of some definitive arrangement as to the practice of the Court, for the advantage of suitors. 10, consequence of this, he suggested, that " Further Di sections" had better be taken up, immediately after the Recess, instead of being postponed until after the third Seal, when it often happened that parties, after winning their Report and Dectee, lost a - whole Term by being obliged to wait for the " Further Directions, and the 7orms of the Offices." He also thought that some ar rangements should be entered into, with reference to the Bankrupt. Petitions. With respect to these, he consi feted that it would he better that they should be taken seriatim, instead of days being set apart for them at different intervals. It they were taken seriatim, he thought it not unlikely that Counsel would ns t tire themselves with long speeches, after they had been upon the subject for three or four days. His Honour claimed the credit of .some knowledge in these matt. rs, observ- ing, " that be had been in the oven himself." Mr. HORNE wished to know, whether flis Honour meant to classify theVetitions according to their merits? His Houma was of opinion, that the less innovation they had the better. To use a maxim of Lord Kenyon's, without for a moment intending to adopt his Latin, it was best " staresuper antique's vim." Lord Eldon we. the first to adopt the system of classifying, and he was .soon convinced of his error. Something ought to be 'done to controul the filing of affidavits, which had gone a a peat height. It often happened, that there would becitir affidavits in a brief, all sworn on the same day, Nf 'die same individual, and at the instance of the same thStney. At a'subseqUint period - of the day, a Junior Counsel tsked, whether he bad rightly umkistood that his Ho 'notir would heat no case in which be hid himself been Counsel? His Rotuma did slot wish to bet u lderstood. • .Mr. Anon!' observed, that if i bis r adopted such a course, be would give himself five years vacation. Hi, HONOUR said, that it did not follow that because he had been engaged in a cause, he should have any predilection for one side -more than another. He re. membered; well a case, in which the present Lord M insfield. and Lord Eldon, then Sir J. Scott, Attorney- General, were engaged, and met with him almost daily, in consultation. Sir John Scott was always saying, that 't m is impossible there could be a decree for theoplain tiff. Upon this, he was quite warm in his °pinks% The case came on for judgment before Lord Rosslyn. and he gave a sweeping decree against the defendant. Shortly after this, Sir John Scott was made Lord Chancellor, and he (Sir Anthony Hart) advised an Appeal to be brought before him, thinking he could not but gain his calve. He found, however, to his coat, that Sir John Scott, Attorney General, was very different from Sir John Scott, Lord Chancellor, and that he discovered very different reasons for his opinion as a Judge to what he had as an Advocate. Although he did not always object himself to hear cases io which be had b..en Coun sel, he should leave it to the option 'of the parties to ob ject to any case being referred to him. He should always, however, prefer their being carried before the Lord Chancellor. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAT 16. THE KING U. THE JUSTICES OP SURREY* Mr.BARNEWALL obtained a Rule Nisi for a certiorari, to bring up an order of the Surrey Sessions dismissing an appeal of the Auditors, under the,New Church Act, against the allowance of a sum of 6671. for a peal of bells to the new Newington Church, which had been supplied without the authority of the Commissioners appointed by the New ChurCh Act, in order to have the same quashed for irregularity. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAT' 16. ASSAULT AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT. WARD F. RASISDALR AND TWO OTHERS. Mr. Sergeant WILDS (Mr. BRODERICK with him) stated the case. It was an action brought for a com pensation in damages from the defendants, who had assaulted the plaintiff, and imprisoned him in a watch house, withont•the slightest pretence for so doing. Two of the defendants were father and son ; the father was liable to pay certain rates in the parish of Armwell, in Hertfordshire. which he had neglected to do, and had removed to Hackney; be was summoned for the rates. but paid no attention to the summons, and eventually a warrant to distrain was obtained, and the plaintiff, who was a parish constable, went with the Church. warden to Hackney, to execute the same, first getting the warrant indorsed by a Middlesex Ma gistrate, and taking with them a Middlesex Con. stable. The defendant, whose rate it was, was not at home; they waited for some hours, and put a man in possession ; and then waited a farther time to see him ; he offered to pay the rate, but refused to ply any ex penses. The plaintiff, with the Churchwarden, got into their chaise-cart.to return borne. Having to pass the door of the elder Ramsdale, the man who had been left in possession called to them, and said, he had been turned out of possession; the younger Ramsdale then came up, seized the head of the horse, and ordered a constable of Hackney to take the plaintiff, the Chun's warden, and the man who had been left in possession, into custody, which he did, dragging the two former out of their chaise -cart, and, without inquiring upon what charge, conveyed to the watchhouse, and the next morn ing they were taken before the Magistrates at Worship street, and there discharged. Mr. Sergeant TADDY appeared for the defendants, and submitted that the warrant was bad, the sense of " Benjamin" being inserted instead of " Matthias;" but it appearing from the whole of the evidence, that.the, assault took place after the distress was made, and off the premises, this point was overruled. The Learned Sergeant then argued, that such an error must go greatly in mitigation of damages, particularly when coupled with the fact that the case might have been tried at Hertford, and enormous expense saved; but that would not serve the purpose intended—a heavy bill of costs • and besides, the faces of the parties would have been then well known. The LORD CHIMP Jos ma said, that the plaintiff had been imprisoned contrary to all law, propriety, and, decency--he had been kept out all night, and wantonly' taken before a Magistrate ; the constable who took him into custody had acted most improperly. Under all the circumstances of the case, the Jury would estimate, the value of the liberty of a man in the same rank of , life as themselves.—Verdict for the plaintiff—Da mages 101.

Pia appeared yysterday before T. 11.11 . 1.1.11, Rug. to :hale of assn ith e preferred against him by Mr. Stevens, leyor of pavemenNior the parish of St. Paul, Covent. garden.. the statement of Mr. Stevens it appeared, that on Monday between twelve and one o'clock. as he was Proceeding along .;event-garden, he perceived some hustings erected, and two or three men sitting on the top of them. He inquired of them who had Peen directions for the erection of the hustings? to which one of them replied " that his master had," but refused to say who his master was. He then told them that be was Surveyor of the pavements, and that they must pull it down, as it obstrected the carriage-way between 16 and 18 yards. They, however, refused.' so to do. He then went and procured a sledge hammer, and bad' commenced breaking up the hustings, when Mr. Pitt arrived, and 'squired by what authority he demolished the husdnp? and on 'being informed, said, "you shall not remove them you have no authority so to do." Mr. Pitt then went from plank to plank for the purpose of preventing the complainant removing the aeolin g , bet finding that his efforts were unavailing, be descended the stops. and seised him (Stevens) by the collar, and endeavoured to force lbw away From the hustings ; the defendant then attempted to sty aimed the platfot at, but without success, as the bolt had heels wi, d. l drawn. Mr. Pitt then assumed a very menacing attitude, but did. not then strike the complainant, wise told hint that be was only `doing his duty under Mr. M. Angelo Taylor's Act. Mr. Pitt now ed that Stevens weuld produce his authority, when Hunt, of Blacking" notoriety, observed that the °Meer bad drakes so. et Slam oath Searle observed, that the of the °Seer was quite eudishot. Mr. Pitt—How loos have you been a surveyor ?—Since the 6th of August, 1881. Mr. - Haus,. the Magistrate, here interrupted Mr. Pitt, by ob serving that that quadrat was not at all to the point; it was quite sufficient that the complainant was in office on the day in question. Mr. Pitt—if you had not been in office on Monday last, could you have said that you were in danger from Charles Pitt I—l cer tainly could. When you saw the Mutiny, to whom did you complain of the obstruction ?—To no person. Did you sot tell Mr. Roche, the vestry-clerk ?—I did not. What is the name of the person who desired you to pull down Ike hosting. Nrildiet. Roche objected to this question. Did you cut down the steps when I nasals than 7—No ; I knock ed them down--(A laugh.) Did you see me fall in the kennel?—Tes, I did. Under what Act. of Parliament did you take the proceedings ? I destroyed this hustings by virtue of the COMMISIIIM which I hold. Was it under Mr. Taylor's Act I—lt was. Can you shew me t►e clause 1-1 PM Did you see Mr. Hunt there?— Mr. Roche objected to that question. You object. said Mr. Pitt, beforehand; then I say you are no lawyer. You know already my opinion of lawyeni I had so much trouble, replied the complainant, with you, Mr. Pitt, that I really could not find time to see who was there—( Much laughter.) Mr. Lee, the High Constable of Westminster, deposed, that in consequence of hearing of seVeral reports of a Meeting which was to take place Is Covent Garden, Ise went there oct Monday, ex. sal) , at eleven o'clock, and saw a large assemblage collected.— He was accompanied by fourteen constables for the purpme of putting down the meeting. He there saw Mr. Pitt seise Stevens by the collar, but could not sgy that he saw Mr. Pitt give a blow. A great deal of scuffling took place. He heard Stevens tell Mr. Pitt, most distinctly I times, that he was a surveyor of the pavements, and that it was his duty to remove the hustings, which caused a very groat obstruction. Mr. Pitt then declared that he had authority from Sir Richard Birnie, and they should not be removed. Mr. Pitt new aunt unequivocally denied that he bad uttered such an tap:melon, but admitted that he had stated that he had waited en Sir U. Biruk, and informed his Worship of the in tended meeting. _ _ _ Mr. Mtt....kr. Lee, how many constables did you bring on this occasion ?—As many as I deemed sufficient. Did you, on this occasion, act under the orders of the High Bailiff or kis Deputy ?—I did not. Did you me me fail ?—I saw you slip,but did not see you fall down. Under whose directions did you act 2-1 considered it my duty to interfere, by virtue of my office. Bhew me how I collared the officer ? Mr. Pitt here was laying bold of Mr. lee ; as that Gentleman 'hewed no disposition to exhibit, Mr. Halls interfered, and begged bhp to go on with his defence, since he was triliing with the that of the Court. Mr. Pitt replied, that the time of the Court was his tittle • that the Chief Justice of the Woes Dena never refused a dedienot I dine, and be claimed it there. The worthy -Magistrate replied, that no man was more willing to afford a defendant time than himself, but' be could out permit the patience of the Court to be exercised upon nutmeats matter, which bad nothing to do with the charge before it. Mr. Pic—Nerw, Mr. Halls, I address you as the person who granted a warrant against me, which, I suppose, you considered you were right in doing as a dagistrate ; but I say you base no such right. You have twilight to abridge the privilege of any subject whet is met to pay Ms ineed of congratulating to his Sovereign. Mr. Pitt now produced a paper, which he was about to read, when, in answer to a question from the Bench as to its nature, he replied it was an Address which he had intended to present to his Majesty. Mr. Hunt—A rejected Address!—{Laughter). Mr. Haus declined beating it, as totally irrelevant, and once more requested him to confine himself to the charge. Mr. Pitt expressed his intention of doing so; but again getting rather wide of the question, The Bench again interfered, and at length finding it impossible to stem the torrent of his eloquence, ordered inns peremptorily to find ball—himself in 401. and two sureties in SOL each, to answer the charge at the Sessions. The aim occupied the Court, width was crowded, two hours. MARY-LA-BONNE. _ Ro AT Jor's GARDWlL—Yesterday Thomas Farr, a waiter at Joy's Hate!, Covent Garden, was brought up by Webster, the officer, charged with robbing H. Waddington, Esq. of Trinity College, eambridge. It appeared from the evidence, that Webster, the Mikes' of this Establishment, received private information that the prisoner, who had recently gone into Mr. Joy's service, was a member of a mow desperate and well-organised gang of housebreakers, who, in order to facilitate their object of planar, engage themselves as servants in banes Where it is likely there is eondderable property ; and the first opportunity that presents itself, the gang, by the assistance of the confederate suoimt,• enters the house, and Gawks off all they meet with. beilkis des the prisoner entered the service of Mr. Joy, bet bud eetbeie 'long in his situation before Webster bard, from. ha -r--a'- authority, that the gang, by the aid of the prisoner (who had itowespotided with bii assegiatwases the dies he best web Itbe:dleethoo) had 'formed silk sed.bed este* land a Oohs letdlsades the robbery of the Hitt& Wellatet, by %he Myles . eitheitheistrates, conferred with Hr .

It was agreed, that .on the night of the Intended robbery, Webster should be concealed in the House, in order to watch the movements of the prisoner (whose turn it was to skim). About three o'clock in the morning, the prisoner was observed to peep through the key-bole of the plate closet, and try to open it, but faded; and after two it three ineffectual attempts, the officer rushed forth, and took him into custody; he appeared dreadfully alarmed, and said that he merely wanted a bit of tea and sugar. He was de tained in custody, and underwent an examination at this office, and was remaaded, in Order that his lodgings (which he had taken, although he had never slept there,) in leg-alley, Long-acre, might be Ruched. Webster, a day or two ago, proceeded there for the purpose, and found several articles of Gentlemen's wearing apparel, (suck as coats, thins, cravats, &c.) who had put up at the. Hotel, and some glasses belonging to Mr. Joy, besides some pick-luck keys. A brown coat, and some urcktrebiefs, amongst those found, were identified as being the property of 11. Waddington, Esq. of Trinity College, Cambridge; and Air. Joy identified the glaues as his property. The prisoner, who made no defence, was fully committed to take his ttial at the Old Bailey Sessions. QUEEN-SQUARE.
