The Anthem, with the organ and Royal Band accompaniment, " LOAD of al/ power and might," fillea the sacred pile with strains seraphic, and which could but influence the listening spirit to a character of devo tion,—His MAJUTY, in excellent health, was piously attentive to the service. Earl and Countess-Coverall, and Earl Besanaomi, bad the honour of dining with the KING yesterday. The Duke or YORK arrived in town yesterday, from the k are eb of HARTFORD'S seat, Sudburn, Suffolk.

The Marquis of GRAHAM has =lived in town, ftom Nato Nowbray, Leicestershire. The Earl of CLAarsNooN, who has been seriously ill, we are happy to hear, is getting much better. This morning, about three 'o'clock, a fire broke out at the Feather-bed Manufactory of Mr. English, White chapel, which entirely consumed it, and damaged the adjoining buildings; but, by the speedy arrival of en gines, further damage was stopped : no lives were lost. The Marquis of CAMDEN has paid over to the Con solidated Fund the sum of eight thousand one hundred and thirty omen pounds, being the amount of Fees which his Lordship has re- Antuished as Teller of the Exchequer for the year lei& COVENT-GARDEN TH NA TRIL—....•LaSt night SHAk. srsass's admired and classical Tragedy of Jana Cans was per 'formed at this Theatre, when Youso and C. Kowa sustained, with great ability, the characters of Brutus and Marc Antorty.—. COOICA'S Cassias was a respectable performance, and Fswarre's Goan-wasNU of point. Mrs. Faucix, in Ib,tia, played with muck feeling. The other characters were well sustained, the mob excepted, who were certainly too uproarious—for a theatrical mob at least. • It is stated in a letter from Paris, that the KING Spain was very anxious to get rid of the treaty entered into by the Constitutional Government for indemnifying Nis country. When Sir WILLIAm A'Couer waited upon him, after the publication' of his decree issued at Port St. Mary's, to demand a recognition of bii for mer signature to this treaty, his MAJESTY, under the advice of his Confessor-Minister, at first refused, oa the ground that he .was not free when he signed the treaty; but the instructions of our Ambassador were peremp tory, and allooed nu farce of this kind. The Ambars t , victor told his Catholic Majesty, that he was positiveli instructed to obtain a recognition of this obligation, or i to leave Madrid in 24 hours.

Accounts from Havannah, of November B,4 k tateAßti l by an order of the tuperlor Junta of the Treasury, the exportation of gold and silver is allowed in foreign ves sels (gold paying li and silver S per cent. duty) till' the new tariff, which is in agitation, is carried into effect. Letters were received yesterday from Rio de Janeiro, dated the 25th of October, two days subsequent to the sailing of the packet. The Congress of Brazil had ..on that day, after a warm discussion, passed a- decree, authorizing the trial by Jury in civil and criminal cases, Which was to be brought into immediate operation. No other fac t of importance is mentioned in these letters, and the report of an approaching change in the Ministry not being again 'alluded to, may be considered as with out foundation. Letters of the 9th instant, from Berlin, state that in consequence of the fatal accident which attended the, entry of the Princess Royal into that capital. by which twenty-seven persons lost their lives, and fifty others were severely hurt, a strict order to the Presidency of the Police has been issued by the Government, in which, after ascribing the above calamity to the precipitancy of the populace, it is enjoined - that any assemblage of people refusing to disperse on the first summons, shall be fired on by the soldiery ! A .;Royal Order has also been issued for subjecting to the Censorship, in addition to the journals, any works whatever . in which military affairs a re treate d o f, t h oug h ever so casually. Letters from Vera Cruz of the 10th October, and from liavannah of the 10th November, state that matters in Mexico remain in a gloomy state. In consequence of the destruction of Vera Cruz by the Castle of St. Juan de Woe, the Mexicali Government had directed the' . , sequestration of all Spanish property in that country' and threatened direct hostilities against the Parent State. The Custom-house had been removed to Alvarado. A, Spanish naval and military , force had proceeded Prim . the: .Iriavannah to relieve :he Castle of St. Juan, and destroy the fortifications on the Isle of Sacrifieios. Much was hoped from the known prudence and humanity of the Commander of the Expedition, if not to avert, at least to mitigate the horrors of war. . SANOVINART DUEL IN THE UNITED STATES.—; - The following is an extract from a letter received by a Gen tleman in Liverpool ; it is dated CharlestoD (S.C.) No vember 8. After speaking of the rancorous spirit ex cited by the elections, the writer proceeds thus :—.s Our newspapers teemed with abuse, and several iostances occurred of personal collision ;"one of these I was in a measure compelled to witness, the most tragical and heart-rending in its result. In consequence of some el pressions used by Mr. E. F. S. (a member of our Wu-, and who, you recollect, married a" daughter of --)a a challenge passed between hits and Mr. G. C. G. the youngest son of General G. A meeting took place oil the morning o f th e - 6th ultimo. Four shots were ex. changed without effect, except she balls passing harm lessly through their clothes. At. the•ifth fire, Mr. G. after receiving a wound through both thighs, shot Mr.S. as the abdomen. The latter died the next day in the most horrible agony, and leaving a wife and two or three young children in rather a dependent state ;- whilst the formes is still confined with big wounds, with the probability , of being seriously injured for life." -LAW INTELLIGENCE. . . • tlii QUIERNSBERRY COURT Of Cfl/INCRitr, DRCEMBER as. • ON THE PETITION OF VII LEGATEES OF THE DUX* OF QUEENSEERRY , ...THOMAB v.

Queensberry property; I understand that the object of the petition is to makk a distribution of a certain portion of the fend. LO RD CHANCELLOR.—Does that press mach; because there is nothing in the Queensberry cause biit aquestion i , which is ordered to come on, on the first appeal day, in, the House of Lords ? Mr. Holm—The object is to leave as much of thefund as can be left after a distribution. I am to consent to that. LORD CHANCELLOR... 4 do not mean to make any objection to its coming on. I think it is very likely, from what I hear, that this matter will be speedily discussed in the House of Lords ; the question is now, what I shall allow, and what that allowance will leave and answer for what Scots lawyers call violent profits ? Mr. SHADWELL. appear for executors, who cannot consent to anything, but they are entirely under the di rection of the Court. t LORD CRANCELLOR.—Whatever payment is asked for and granted, must be guarded ; and must be on the Court's being satisfied that whatever claimants there may be, there will be left abundant property to answer for them ; for the last order I was induced to make was , on that caution. Stock was then only 64, and they undertook to pay whatever should be demanded if the stocks should fall, bnt they have happily risen. Mr. Hots.—The price of stock is now much higher than it was then, certainly.—Tope heard to-morrow. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, DECEMBER SHL • . GIMMICK HOSPITAL AND CHELSEA COLLEGE. ii TUt MATTEIS OP ROW ABBOTT, ♦ saintaarr. Mr. &forum, on behalf of Greenwich and Chelsea Hospitals, stated, that there were two petitions pre sented to compel the assignees to receive proof of debts due by the bankrupts to the captors df the island of Saints, which was captured in the year 1809; by forces under the command of Sir Alexander Cochrane and Sir Thomas Maitland, the prize-money of 'which came to the hands of the bankrupt, as their agent, in 1819. Mr. HIALD and Mr. WILDE, 012 behalf of the other creditors of the bankrupt, contended, that under the Act of Parliament, the Hospitals were not entitled to prove the debts in qnestion, amounting to 4,0001. inasmuch as there had not been any notification of distribution, and the Hospitals did not become the representatives of the captors until four months after such notice. The Vlca-CHANcetton decided, that although under the Act four mouths were allowed the captors to male their claims in person, yet the Hospitals became in effect their trustees, from the moment of the capture, and were therefore entitled to prove their respective claims under the Commission. • . -- .The defendants accordingly libelled the plaintiff in the Admiralty Court, claiming damage,;notenly to the ex tent of the value of the Dundee, butter*. appaialtu far .fithing, and conveying thi oil, -harpist:Mai; time, hooks, !casks, and cauldrons, which wereirrthOst equal in value iii the vessel itself, aboVe 2,0001.

In pursuance of this soggistioo, the present action was brought, in- which the only questi , as vacs, whether the fishing appellees and utensils of a Cr land fishing-vessel can be regarded as its 66 apperte tenances," within the language of this statute? It was agreed, between Mr.MARRYAt for the plain. tiff, and the SOLICIT° rt-Gtza seat for the dekndant, that this was essentially a question of law, and that the facts should be specially found, io as to bring them before the Court. Proof was then adduced to shew that in surances were separately effeetedon the fishing utensils and on the vessels; that, in the intervals of the voyages, the vessels were sometimes applied to other purposes; that the boats were of a description not allowed in ge neral by law, but permitted for this express purpose; that the apparatus had nothing to do with the navigation. The Jury then found a special verdict, on the effect of which the Court will determine. ,' •; . • SHERIFFS' COURT, RED LION-SQUABS, ELMS V. JONES. This was an action against the Marshal orthe King's Bench Prison for an assessment of damages for the es cape of Mr. Henry Bothell, frog) the King's Bench Prison. The sum claimed in the declaration is 1701. -"•Mr. ABRAHAM stated the case. The debtor was a mer chant in the City, trading to and from Ostend I the ac tion was brought by the executor of a person named Ellis, who held a bond conditional for 4001. subject to the real payment of 2004 of which 301. bad been paid off. The debtor, when found, was in. the custody of the Sheriff of London, at the suit of another creditor; a detainer was there lodged against him, and, he. vas removed by habeas to the King's Bench, where the Marshal granted him the Rules, from which he escaped on the 20th of October last ; and no notice being.given to produce the body, be of course could riot be found Mr. Paynter, the plaintiff's -Solicitor, proved the debt epee the liond ; and produced, several letters from the defendant'. Attorney, as admissions. The defence set np by Mr. EVANS, .Counsel for the Marshal, was, that during the interval of the debtor's escape, a Commission of Bankruptcy bad been taken .out against him, and that a recaption was made on the 14th. of December instant, and therefore the plaintiff could have sustained 01) damage. - Jalr. Easton, the Deputy-Marshal, proved the prisoner was in safe custody ; and that the Bankrupt's Commis sion was taken out on the 6th of November. Mr. ABRA HAM', under-this proof, claimed his reply;.. and the Sheriff, in his address to the Jury, said, he did not. see any serious damage had accrued to the plaintiff. He did not say the Jury should return nominal damages, but it was for their consideration. The Jury, after one hour's consideration, expressed they had, after great •diffseulty, found a Verdict—Damages 501. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT, DECEMBER as. The following insolvents, against whom no. oppo sition was made, _ wete ordered to be dischargedforth "with, viz.—Robert Pippin, John Hartland, Henry Sten- John Smith, William Byers, Edward Reed, :niter Moripn, Matthias John Collins. Richard Jones was opposed by Mr. HEATH, on behbli of Messrs. Price and Gould, and other creditors, Mem'- bera of the Metropolitan Society for the opposition and prosecution of fraudulent insolvents. It appeared by the evidence, that previoui 'to the year 1822, the insolvent had for some time kept a gro cer's shop in Whitecross street, where he said he lost about 2501. in business. In the beginning of last year he went to Edgeware, and commenced business as . 11 grocer there; almost all his debts, amounting to up- ' wards of 5001. _were contracted since that time; 'the, principal patt in the month of. September 'last, in . which month, he bought goods on credit from Messrs. Price and Gould to the amount ot .1041. being much more than he had bought at once op.aey former occasion. He. was soon after arrested by a person ofibe n.ime if Walker for 00, the amount of a bill of exchange he. had passed to a friend named Collet, and which was fifteen months over doe. Between the time of getting the last goods from Messrs. Price and Gould and his. arrest, he paid upwards of 1100 to his brother and two' other persons, for debts not contracted in the way of his trade. One of the payments was 1230 to a person named Collet, brother to him to whom he had passed the bill olexchange for the same sum, on which he was loon after arrested. A short time before his arrest his' shop was broken open, and goods to the amount of up- Wards of £4O stolen. He did not state the fact to any Magistrate or peace officer, but mentioned it to the Se cretary of a Society in •Edgeware for the apprehension of thieves, whcPgave him an advertisement, offering a -reward of £lO for the apprehension of the thief,. which ;be (the insolvent) put in his window, but never heard any. more about * the matter. Mr. Price stated, that! when he made inquiry of the insolvent, in prison wha had become of his stock in trade, he did not mention the robbery, but said he could not live on nothing. - the Clam COMISISSIONII. p ronouncing juda ,. • Pint. said tie ussoavent's case was full et suspicion all its tarts. It was doubtful whether the money pal . Collet was not in discharged* the debt on whiciche iv arrested; and it was riot perhaps ijoubtful whether an robbery had been committed in the insolvent's shop, bu it was easy to suspect who was the thief.

MIWILLMML Mr. PEsteettros applied for an injunction to restrain the defendant from paying the proceeds of the sale of a vessel called the Minerva and its cargo to a person turned Pedro Deliano. The application arose out of the following circumstances, which the Learned Coun sel stated from the plaintiff's affidavit:—During the late war between France 'and -Spain, the, plaintiffs, and Pedro Dertano, who wets Spaniards}, residing at Co ronae, fitted out a privateer called the Atravida, to cruise against the Prlstit.4o -ffhe piizes which 'might be taken, ares;::.elarnalkyslivisted amongst all tbilPtoPrittilis ' 11 W %Mao, likaddition to bein g . a ikrtmetor 11! ilk% Ippdinted the agent of his partners at Corunna. The Atravida captured a French vessel called the Valdonr, which was carried into Co-' runna, where it was condemned, and the name of it changed to the Minerva. The prise was about to be sold,whenthe approach of the French troops to Corunna induced the proprietors of the Atravida to sail with that vessel and their prize to England. They put into Liver pool, and Mr. *Williams was authorised to sell the Minerva and its cargo. - The sale took place, and the proceeds amounted to £B,OOO. Pedro Deliano bad re presented to Mr.M4Williams that he was the only person entitled to receive the proceeds of the sale, alleging that he was the agent of the other proprietors. He had also been known to express his intention to reimburse himself out of. the money- derived from the sale of the ship for some losses which he had sustained at Corunna. Under these circumstances the plaintiffs were compelled to apply for the injunction, to restrain Mr. M.Williams from paying the money . id his possession is 'Deliano, which he had expressed his intention do. The Vicz-Cnateczu.on granted the injuncfion. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECEMBER 22. • ZVA Si V. ASHTON. This was an action .by the owners of the ship, Sea Nymph, against one of the underwriters to the policy effected on that vessel, to recover -a loss of 75 per cent. on the amount of his subscription. The other under writers had paid their quotas without objection, but the defendant insisted that be .ought only to pay ten per• cent. as an average loss for the destruction.of the cable , and anther. He therefore resisted the,action • and paid that sum into Court. : • . • • On the part of the plaintiff, Mr. Jacobs, a Liente nant,of his Majesty's Navy, who was supercargo on boaril,the - vessel, was called. He stated that she 're ceived so much damage by stress of weather, off Prince's Island, on the coast of Africa, that she could-not pro-- vied on her voyage to England without substantial're. pair. In his judgment there were not the means at Prince's Island.of repairing the vessel, (fen suMeiermly .to enable the Captain to take her in safety to Sierra Leone: where, possibly, new masts and sails might hanelsest, supplied.
