This was an action brought by the Plaintiff to recover compensation in damages for injury sustained in his character from an unfounded charge of felony preferred against him by Defendant, From the statement of the Learned Counsel, and the evidence of the witnesses, it appeared that the parties had had some con nexion with one another as bone-dealers, in which business the plaintiff contended that be was a partner. The defendant. how ever refused to acknowledge that claim. and insisted on the con nection being dissolved ; in consequence of which he caused notice to be served on the customers not to pay any money, or to deliver op any goods to the plaintiff ; notwithstanding which the plaintiff did ob tain two horses, which had been let on hire to a gentleman named Ri mers for six months. The defendant then obtained a warrant against him for stealing the horses, and after several examinations at Marlbo rough-street Police Office, the plaintiff was fully committed to take his nisi for the alleged felony. The Grand Jury, however, ignored the bill, and the plaintiff brought thisaction to recover compensation for the injury he had sustained by these proceedings. Several witnesses were called, who proved In detail the particulars of the facts, of which the above is shortly the substance. Lord TIINTZSDLN, however, stopped the caw. His Lordship said that there was no evidence to prove that the defendant was aensated in what he bad done by any malicious Intention, and the action could not therefore be sustained. His Lordship ordered the plaintiff to be called. Plaintiff consulted accordingly. !MT V. MSC'. This was an action to recover damages for an alleged libel. The plaintiff in this case is the celebrated pea-maker, book mmpiler, &c. and the defendant is a person of literary habits, who had formerly been connected with the plaintiff. In consequence of some dispute the parties separated; subsequently letters were sent to various tradesmen who worked for the plaintiff, cautioning them arrainst doing business for "37, Red Lion.equare," (Mr. Perry's residence), as they would be swindled out of their money. This was the libel charged. Several witnesses were examined, who deposed to the hand writing being similar to the defendant's, but not one of them could swear positively on the subject. Other witnesses for the defence swore that the handwriting was not is the slightest degree like the defendant's. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—.Damsges SOL COURT OF REQUESTS. QUAITZNIAGZIIIe room:outs' COMPANY V. 2110111STON. The several Companies of the City of London are in the habit of levying a tax, which they call quarterage, upon the members. The de fendant in this case, a gentleman of considerable public spirit in the corporation, was some time ago waited upon, by one of the °Mars of the company, for the sum of His. being arrears of quarterage-move) imposed by one of the bye-laws of the company, and alleged to be due from the defendant as a member of it. Mr. Thornhill denied the right to recover, whereupon he was sum moned to attend before the Commissioners of the Court of Requests, and show cause why be refuted. Mr. Thornhill wished to know by what authority the demand was made upon him. The ogees of the Company produced the bye-law, and argued upon the usage of the Companies, which invariably demanded, and were paid, Quarterage money. The Commissioners, having read the bye-law, spoke to the profile 'iota assistant of the Court, and conferred together, were of opinion that the liability of the members of the Company to make pecuniary ontributlen must depend upon the purpose for which contribution was required ; that this purpose must be consistent with the object contemplated by the charter, and to secure which the charter was bestowed" and that it was incumbent upon the Company insisting upon the contribution, first to shew that it had not a sufficient income derived from other sources to meet its proper expenditure. The plaintiffs not being prepared to prove what was required, con salted to withdraw their claim. It is expected that the demand of quarterage will be resisted by the seetnben of all the Companies which are not so poor as to require sup port from sontrlbutioss. The Judges have decided already, that as the quarterage is a money tax, the Legislators must be applied to before it can be levied, except for the purpose of saving a pecuniary necessity. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Doman—JAN.3i. The AVTOIIIIIIIa/ENZSAL came into Court at eleven °Woo*, and said—" My Lords, in the case of the King against O'Connellaod others, I beg to inform the Court that one of the traversers bas pleaded to alt the counts in the indictment not guilty ; that Mr. Steele has pleaded owl lid record to some of the counts, and not guilty to the remainder; and that Mr. O'Connell and the other novenas hive demurred to some, and Ltd.:to the remainder.

The CHIZP` JWITICI—As notice of this application was given only this morning, and there is no appearance for the traverser', you had bet ter make this application at the sitting of the Court to-morrow, and give notice of your intention to the traverser'. The ATTORIIIIY.ORWERAL said that the Defendants were bound, under their recognisance!, to be personally present in the Court every day during the Term. He then bowed and retired. • TAIIM T. Two writs of .!epic were executed at the King's Head Inn, Stratford, on Saturday last, before the Under-Sheriff of this county and a respect able jury. One writ, in the King's Bench, for a debt of 1,0001 and upwards, due to the plaintiff, who resides in London, for money ad vanced. The other writ, in the Common Pleas, foe 1,1001. and upwards, due to the awe plaintiff Mr. Stephen Newman, the head Clerk from the office of the solicitor to the Beni of England, produced Mr. Wellesley's original marriage settlement, dated In March, 10111. by which It appumd that he is te nant for life of the whole of the Eats estates, the property of Was Long previous to her marriage.

At the conclusion of the deed, the contracting parties solemnly pledge themselves to abide by the enactments, by the words, .• faith and honour of gentlemen." I make no comments upon this document; it speaks for itself. The borough of Wigan it another, and a different specimen of the boroughmongcring system. The inha. blunts of that sp i rited ea tr i n i are nobly struggling to emancipate them. selves from the and Injury they have so long laboured un der. The power o f deciding which of the iuhabitants of Wigan shill exercise the elective franchise le invested in a jury, nominated by the Corporation; something like the lord of the manor's jury, who choose the boroughreeve and Constables of the town of Manchester. En arse bro' in Yorkshire, is a third specimen. The Duke of Devonshire is what is called the patron of the borough, that is, he nominates the members,and it is singular and rather novel in the want that none of the inhabitants of the town have any concern in th e election. The day before the election takes place, a number of the Duke of Devon. shire's tenants, from Bolton Bridge and other places, come into the town, and certain burgage houses are surrendered to them, and the next day hey go into Court and return the persons the duke's agent requests them to do, and then they are denominated the members for Knave:- bro'. Speaking of this borough reminds me of en objection to borough reform, which I have heard some persons make, which is, —that unless there were these kind of inlets to the House of Commons, talented and highly connected young men of slender fortune could not obtain seats; that men like S he ridan, Burke, T , Mackintosh, and Brougham, might not have been brought forwarda sbut by close boroughs. Why, if I understand rightly, what one effect of a reformed parliament will be, it is, that men of talent.— and above all, of principle, would be preferred, and elected too, without any expense. There Is only owe more instance which T will adduce. to show the extraordinary state of the representation of England. This document which I hold in my hand contains the names of 102 English boroughs, the entire population of which was, at the census of 11121, 188,370. The population of Manchester, at the same period, was 187,03(; majority in favour of Manchester, 661. Sines 182 r, as most of you know, a very great increase has taken place in the parish of Manchester, whilst I believe a put number of the boroughs lave re mained nearly stationary. And if the whole population of the king dom was now taken, the parish of Manchester would contain. I have DO doubt, as many, if not more, inhabitants than are in 180 boroughs that return two hundred and sixty members, fern:in/ ad : majority of the English mambas.— (Shama) But it be borne In mind how very few of the inhabitants have votes. To give you some idea of which, I have another list containing the names of 16 boroughs that return 60 members, and the teed as of votes are only three hundred and fifty-eight. (Shame.) To the credit of Mr. Prentice, be it spokes, these lists were, some time ago, pre pared and publi shed by him. In Scotland the state of representation is, if losable, still more shameful, but as that will probably be commented upon by some native of th at country, I will nee occupy the Name of the Mee tin g. bat by just speaking of Edinburgh, a town nearly as large as Mandtester, where Thirty-three persons elect the Member. who bas actually stated in his place in Par liament, that •I no reform is desired in Scotland;" but I rejoice that that statement is unfounded. I have just received a Inter from a valuable friend of mine in Scotland. who knows the state of feeling well. The writer says—" The spirit of parliamentary reform is spreading far and wide in Scotland, sod in less than a year, we hope and confidently expect to see *ghosting of a popular election at the cross of Edinburgh." On the aB-important subject of the ballot, I have a strong and decided feeling, but I think I have steady occupied as much of your time tad attendee as I eight to do, rod it will coots this day under your notice. Mr. Potter was followed by Mr. Shutdeworth, who, as usual, was Most eloquent in exposing the monstrous abuses in the reprenotadon, and he concluded with the followlag peroration :—The House of Com moos, as now constituted, is an amemably in which the people, whose house it ought to be, have no pow. The reform of that house must be such as will return members who have no interest in misgovern ment; members who will act for the benefit of the whole community, and not, as heretofore, for the sedative benefit of themselves and tie borough-owners—members who will no longer sacrifice the inmost of the many to the interest of the few. To secure this result, it is necessary that they should represent, not as they now do, the aristocracy, but the people ; they must be intimately and closely connected with the people at large, and mast have no other constituents. This purpose can be effected with certainty, only—by more frequent election—by a general digitate!) of the franchise—and above all, by complete independence of voting, that is, by secret voting, or voting by ballot. Under a different system we have seen the resources of the country—mapificent and splendid es they are y unequalled, and wooderful as are the great, and almost 1 - 1 4 :2 11 : bigi nattual, physical, sod mood foundations on which they rest —profligately wasted; and we have seen the people, amongst whom the just and natural &WIWI* of these resources would have sprmd pros perity, peace, and jay. reduced, by the dreadfidasposta with which the same system hos bombes* the Maur of the cottony, to almost the very extremity of reitheeness, agitators, and hnpatintas But under the auspices of an enlightened and honest administration, I have sanguine hopes that at length a brighter prospect is opening before us. Mr. Gasv then moved another resolution, and among nutty peed neat observations, entered insn some details relative to the origin of the representative system, respecting which, he remarked, moth ignorance prevailed. From these details, and from several cur. eta which he read, it appeared that the first enrolment of the parliament took place in the reign of Edward 111. and that. with some trifling attendees, this was the origin of the present House of Commons. It was not ern the reign of Henry VI. that Lancashire sent any representatives to parliament, and about this period might be dated ibe origin of rotten boroughs, which were designated by a writer of the reign of Charles 1. in a wor k on the records of parliament, poor upstart boroughs, which without any right, sent members to parliament." Of these 64, were enumerated, which were called" rotten boroughs." In the reign of Henry VIII. the country gentlemen became ambitious of being in parliament, and instead of the members being paid their reasonable ex penses, these gentlemen Gowned and feasted the burgesses, to secure their return as representatives in parliament. During the reigns of Nary, Elizabeth, and James. mighty more were added to the list of rotten boroughs, antengst which were most of the boroughs of Corn. wall, the borough of Newton, in this county. and the respectable borough of Be. tee.
