This 4 , 41, 44IUi n of indekettuus ernmosit, tinder the Act for ine , mpfirating the Reont's Canal Com• piny, to recover the toiM of ICS" being the Arrest tit certain instAlments claimed to be defended, in respect to 2,0 hundreJ-pointd Shares in the mid Mr. WARIMN, Mr. HARMON. and Mr. F. POL. LocK, appeared as Couorel for the plaintiffs, And the case appeared to be this. The defendant, as a sub- scriber for shares to the amount of d2OOO in the Re- gent's Canal, hid paid itloo on account, and now paid into Court £3OO, with respect to which be ad mitted he had regular notice to pay, pursuant to a Res:Audi:it of the Committee for managing the Com luesp's affairs. It appeared that the practice adopted `by the Committee, under the Act, was to form cer tain Resolutions, as the affairs of the Company re quired advances from the shareholders on account of their respective shares, for carrying on the works of the Canal. Those R esolutions Reed a certain time, on or before-which the money should be paid, and also the place it•which the payments were to be de posited, and dolt the deposits should be Id per cent. upon each share ? which were to be carded to the account of George Ward, Esq. The Act of Parliament prcscsibed no particular form of notice, but it was the practice of the Committee to send found a circular notice to all the shareholders, ap prising them of such Resolutions as had been formed by the Committee, and requiting them to make de posits in the manner thereby prescribed. The defence suggested to the present action, upon the merits of the case, was, that the Noble lie kndant had already paid more money on account of his shares than he was legally bound to do, to a Mr. Homer, who had acted as agent Tor the Company,, for certain purposes; and, amongst others, fur the purpose, as was said, of raising money ; but that that person, (who had been recently convicted of a tread upon the Co 'spiny.' and sentenced to trans., portation for his offence) had not entered tie sum to the credit.of the defendant in the Company's books s i In answer to this, it was stated on the part ails*, plaintiffs, that Mr. Homer was not their agent for the purpose of receiving money, and was only their agent for certain purposes ; and consequently that the defendant ought not to have paid his money to their unauthorised Agent. But, litiweottr, heti:sic the me tits of the case were gone into, Mr. SCARLET?, for the defendant, submitted that tbe.plaintiffs had r,ot done what was necessary to en title themselves to bring the present action. The 46th Section of the /kit passed for regulating the SIZA. nagenient of this Company, provided, that calla.' should be made on the su'isciibers for payment of dividends by the General Committee, who were to fie the amount of such payments, the time, place, and meaner of the same being made ; and if, alter such coil, any subscriber should neglect to pay, he should be liatile to be sued for the amount Oaf h's dividend by Committee . the General Solar, the provisione of the 46th Section went; but the 4Stai Section reqUired something more to be done. By the 48th Section it was provided, to entitle them selves to bring their action against a defaulter, it was necessary they , should give to such defaulter a notice of sues: call paving been made by the General Committee. The plaintiffs had not proved, nor had, they indeed given any such notice to Lord Dundos; and therefore he sub:Oates:l they were not in a shun. tion to support the present action. Mr. Minna:: contended, that the call of the Com mittee was all the notice which the Act required. • Lord EtteenAtoutot held the objection fatal, and the plaintiffs were nunsuited. Tile same V. LORD 3T. JOHN. This was an actian brought by the same plaintiffs against Lord St. John, under similar circumstances. The same objection arose is in the let mer case, and the plaintiffs were nontuited. THg SANK V. BROOKSBANK. The circumstances of this case bring the same as' in the former ones, the plaintiffs consented to be noto •suited.—Lord Et.eatisonoeou finished his Sittings, having disposed of every cause, in the paper. OLD DAILEV. Yesterday morning Mwhard Gatliorne Butt, whose ease is alluded to in - our repot tof the proceedings at the Old Bailey on Saturday, was again put to the bar, for the purpose of a farther appeal being made to the Court on the subject of his being detained till the first day of Term. —Mr. RICHARDSON was about to addicts the Court, when Mr. Baron Woon addressed the prisoner, and ask ed him it he had got any Counsel The Prisoner.—No, my Lord, I have not : I -in f j tend to plead my own cause. Am Ito be tried to.daA Mr. Baron WOOD.—Nu, you are not to be.tried to-day; but a motion is about to be made to the Court, in which you are interested, and to which I wish you lo attend. The Prisoner.—Sir Nathaniel Conant was kind enough to offer to admit me to bail, but I refused, preferring rather to remain in gaol till I am tried. Mr. Itrataneses now addressed the Court as fol- i lows:—My Lord, a motion was made on Saturday for the detention of Mr. Butt till the first day of need Term, and a precedent was cited by the Solicitor of d Him Treaser, in suppoerof that. motion. Since So eeday, other precedents have been discovered, toe which I shall call your Lordship's attention. Mr. 'Butt was committed to the gaol of Newgate by Sir Nathaniel Conant, on a charge of publishing a cer- WA scandalous and malicious libel of and concerning Lord Ellenborough and Lord Oesdereagh. This commitment took.place subsequent to the conclusion of the last Term, and• the object of the motion -ufj Saturday, in support-of which lam now farther. to, address you, was to have the prisoner detained or held to sufficient bail till the first day of nest Easter Term. Misapplication is made on the authority of a s affidavit, smile by Mr. Hobhouse, the Solicitor for the pthsecotion, 'is which it is stated, chat an in formation has; been prepared against the prisoner, and is ready for the signature of the Attorney. Gene• Tat, I may rtovraddi that Otte inters:atlas hat.ben signed by the Attorney-General, and will be reprerec, * the ikb dew ColiWei . Kisis bench on the des' deg of Term. The fartheeseeeedenti which I have refits is support of the mu are, fits, tbe.care of of dutuansz of Tins,. who was committed in to Newgate. by the Set Salary of State, fof pub s , lishipe a libel. 1u then case, the Sessions for gaol ,delisery bering . bi between the time of commit and the ensuing Term, -1111 Th replication- was '1.114, the Judges a this Chart. i! at be might be in ceitody ell the first day i f the succeeding Tens, sad he was ordered to be di toned aecoodiaplP' "7 . 5 . Mr. Bison Woos.-..1t des eat that asIP thing was said in th a t c a s e o f an i • hat 'bout to be filed. AU that was revised was a tier, eueity for the appearance of the prisoner in the Clam of King's Bench on she kit-day of Term, amlehat was the amonated the order made. ' sr. Ricomtriom—The second case, my Lord. to which I have to draw yore attention is that of Robert Nixon, who was committed to Newgate on the Stit of,January, 1737, for publishing a libel. A u,flhlar application to the present was made. to the Coon of Cool Delivery, on the 14th of the same month, and the Court ordered his to be continued in custody till delivered by the due count of law. He. wart after wards, on the first day of Term, removedby Habeas Corpus to the Court of King's Beach, where an inn. fin oration was tiled against him ; to whxh he plead- . ed, and lie was dealr with snscording to the forms of that Court. There is another case on the records of the Crown Office, in which it appears, that on the Sd of November, in the Bth of George I. a writ of Habeas Corpus was issued,, returnable to the Court `ef King's Bench,. for the removal of a womaa of the :name of Mary-Dorton. It teppettied, on reference to .111 e particulars of the case, that on the Sib of October, 1721, Mary Dbrfon was committed to t h e custody of the Gaoler of Newgate, by a warrant from air William Thompson, then Recorder of London, for publishing a libel containing sediticeis and treason• able matter. By this warrant she was directed to be detained till discharged by due course of law. It farther appeared, that on the gaol delivery of New gate, on the llth of October, the said Mary Dorton was ordered to be detained, or held to bail, to appear in the Court of King's Bench en the first day of the ensuing Term. Mr. Justice • DALLAS.—Does it appear vahether these motion, were resitted by the parties? Mr. Rienartmott.--eNo, my Lord, these are merely' precedents, to shew that persons have been, from time to time, ordered to be detained, or to find sure ties for their appearanie in the Court of King's Bench, on the first day of the e:ituing Term. Unless motions had been made for these orders, the priso ners would. as a matter of course, have been dis charged from custody on the last day of the Sessions by proclamation. Mr. Baron Wooo.—No reason is disclosed to us for those orders having beets made : they might have been made by consent of the parties. Mr. RICHAROSON.—There certainly does not ap. pear in those cases to have been any proceedings in stituted in the Court of King's Bench previous to 'the order made; but in the case of Mr. Butt an in. formation has actually been signed by the Attorney. General. He committed the offence with which he Stands charged since the last Term, and therefore no .other course could be taken towards him titan that , :ism before the Court. :There is,another case, how beit, 'which I coulkfer siistibileeiaticlusive, and which is analagous to the present : it is that of sc the King v. Richardson ;!' and it will be found in Leach's Crown Reports, 560. It was an indictmerit for per. jury, on which a warrant had been issued in the county. and the prisoner had been comnsittvil to 'Newgate. The prosecutor afterwards removed the indictment, by certiorari. to the King's Bench. At the Commisitins of Gaol Delivery 4or Newgate, Mr. Knowles, as Counsel for the piisoner, moved that he be discharged,. on the ground that there was no 1 record before the Court on which he could be de. tamed. Mr. Justice Buller on that occasion said, that when an individual was in custody, charged with an offence, he must find bail before he can be discharged, unless by consent of the prosecutor, or by cite due course of law. Upon the authority of all these cases, I trust your Lordship will see the pro priety of calling on the prisoner to be detained until, lie can find bail for his appearance in the Court of King's Bench on the first day of Easter Term. ''. The Affidavit of Henry Hobhouse, Esq. Solici , tor for the prosecution, was then again read by Mr. Shelton. . Mr. RICHARNION.—My Lnrd, the application in the present case might not, perhaps, have been ne ceuary. because there is every probability that the Sessions will last beyond the first day of Term ; but as the prisoner might have applied to the Court alter the Grand Jury bad been discharged, for his liberation, it was deemed proper to make it. Mr. Baron Woos —Prisoner, you have heard the motion which has been made, have you any thing to say on it Mr. Butt.—l would wish to say a few words, my When you will allow me sore do. Mr. Baron Woos.—Yeis may offer what you think proper to the Court now. Mr. Butt.—My . Lord, I have applied to Lord Holland *and to Mr. Benoet, to present Petitions from me to both Houses of Parliament, praying. that my trial might be brought to issue as soon as possible.— I have stated in those Petitions that it is my inten tion to remain in custody till I am hied aith regard to the libel which I am charged as having published. I admit that I printed, set my own name to, and posted it. It is my deterinination not to recant one, word of what I have stated. I maintain that every word, which the posting-bill alleded to is clue. Wbe trier I shall be able to prove my words, I shall leave to the Jury before whom lam tried, and the people. As I am, not acquainted much with the forms of law, may I. ask your Llrdbhip whether qr not the ensuing Terns, as it is called, will commence on ,WedneulaY ? and whether I shall then hear any thing of my trial I Mr. Baron Wnon.—The ensuing Term' begins on Wednesday, and as an reformation is to be filed against you, you'wW, n o doubt; hear something of it. Mr. Butt.—l than your Lordships' as I intend to have no Counsel. I wish to be, apprised of the day en wL;Ch . my trial is to take place. in order that I 101/ v Obtain the attendance of all my witnesses, sixty ,tilfs_tfu Winker. • Mr. Baron Woov.—You will receive due notice of 441: with respect 'satin motion b e l o w the Court, 1 . die* . it . rather preata'a e. it will be gniti ti.
