IN3OLPItN7 DELITJRS' COURt, OCF. 21. UNASSIGNABLE ANNUITIES. This day Mr. Serjeant PALtuen gave his promised judgment upon a point of law arising on the Curio Bcdrorum Act, of some importance to the public. It was the case of Miss Anhort, the very interesting young milliner, remanded on a former day for not in serting in her schedule a certain annuity of twenty pounds a year for her life, bequeathed to her by a cer tain Countess, lately deceased, of which bequest, how ever, she had received the fir-t intimation, at the time of hi , s opposition to her in Court, from her detaining creditor, whose debt was 444 only. The' Learned Serjeant (PALAtett) was of opinion, on the hest consideration of the Act, that. this was .if these annuities that could not be sold or assign ed Hider the Act of Parliament. Judgment for the dclendant. RUCKER AND OTHERS V. HAMM. Mr. Pottocx, for the plaintiff's, said he opposed the defendant on the ground that the debt due to the pl OntifFs was one that might have been proved under a commission of bankrupt, which had been formerly issued against the.delendant, and for which he was now in custody. He was also a foreigner: as Mr. Serjeant PALMER seemed to think the latter objection i fatal in this ease, he should rely on that; for the de fendant challenged the parties to chew any miscon. duct; and appealed to the humanity and the policy of, the Court to say' whether it was just, or humane, or' wisr,lo keep a foreigner in prison, merely because he had not the means to pay his debts ? Mr. SerjeantPaLmen said, the debts here were con tracted after a bankruptcy, and in the case of a fo reigner, as the Act invested him with the discretion, he Inlet say that defendant was not entitled to be dis charged. Defendant remanded. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Yesterday the Sessions of the Peace for the County of Middlesex commenced at acks's Hall ; Mr. MAIN. WARING, in the Chair, when several cases of as saults were tried. J. Hodge: was indicted for assaulting T. Benwell, at Bullock's auction-rooms, in Holborn. By the evi. dence of the prosecutor it appeared that himself and the defendant were both brokers, and were attending a sale at Bullock's auction-rooms. An old bedstead happened to be put up to auction, which was pur chased by the defendant. The prosecutor, as he said, by accident knocked a part of it down, upon which the defendant, with a loud imprecation, , gave him a violent kick on the groin, which caused him to faint away and briiised him severely. The effect of the blow, he also stated, he felt at the present moment. The Jury found him guilty. Joseph Showell, the head-borough of the parish of St. Giles's, Holborn, was indicted for letting a man go at large charged in his custody with a felony. Mr. GIikNEY, for the prosecution, stated the fol lowing circumstances :—The defendant was the head borough of St. Giles's, and one night in September last, a person, whose name was unknown, was brought to the watch-house, charged with having rubbed on unfortunate girl of the town of a handker. chief. When he was first brought there, the defendant very properly said that the girl, although of that un fortunate description, must not to mal-treated, and he accordingly affected to takd the charge in his watch house book ; but he only wrote it on a separate bit of ploer, by which means it did not appear before the Magistrate the next day. As soon, however, as the girl was gone, the prisoner desired to be liberated, and offered a all note as a szcurity for his appearance Oh the Monday morning. The defendant asked him what he would stand to make it up ? Upon which the prisoner said, he would give all the note as he was a married man, and if the affair came to his wife's ears, it would cause a great unhappiness between them ; he accordingly let the man go. The next morning he, the defendant, called upon the girl, and told her he had got a crown for her to make the matter up, which she had better take, and say no more about it. By his persuasion the girl took the money ; but the Watch-house Committee hearing of the transaction, directed the present indictment to be preferred. By the evidence of the girl, Harriet Matthews, it appeared that she had picked up a man in the street, who went home with her to her lodgings in Holborn. Here they had a difference about money matters, when the man snatched up her silk handkerchief and ran away with it. She followed him and called" stop thet." He was stopped by a watchman and carried to the watch-house. Mr. Shewell then took the charge and she left the man in custody. The next day, being Sunday, Shewell came to her and told her he had a crown for her to make it up, which was better than going to the Office, and told her to take the money and' not appear, which she did. Mr. AnoLenta; addrassein the Court and Jury on behalf of the defendant, whom he stated to be a most respectable tradesman in Little Turnstile, Holborn, and to have undertaken the office of headhorialgh without any gratuity whatever. With respect to the transaction now alluded tr , he observed that it had arisert solely from his humanity, and from a wish td rescue a poor fellow from an awkward situation, in which his fAly had placed him. The 145.6 d. which it was insinuated had been kept by the defendant, had been returned to the supposed felon, to the last far- , thing. '1 he Learned Counsel then expressed his tea-' diness to call witnesses to the character of the defen dant, if the Court should see such a step necessary. The learned Chairman was of opinion that this was not letting a mat out of custody who was charged with a fel , aly, and he believed the defendant had no idea (,1 committing any crime. The compromise was the best end of the transaction stated. Verdict—Not Guilty. George Post, the unfortunate man, who, it will be recollected, was convicted at the last Chester a.,s;zes, on the testimony of an artful wicked gitl named Ann Posties, and sentenced to,be hanged, has received a tree pardon from the Regent, and will im medistely leave Cheste; for Maidstone, the residence,' of his rrskrectable lamily. Proper means are taking to have the miscreants alp fabricated the charge against; Post, bra ught to trial for the atrocious conspiracy.

POLICE. • MANSION HOUSI.-....SESZURt OF ftALMON AT BILLINGS. GATE —Yes erday an appeal was made to the Loan MATOR.GO the part of tl e wholesale fish dealers, by Mr. Saunders, of U , per Thames-ttreet, and others,a,gainst a seizure by the City 011bt, cer, (or Clerk of the Market) amounting, in this instants, to , 100 prime salmon, m addition to former seizures made upon them to a much greater extent. His Lordship, as both parties were compla.nacts ' was at a loss which to hear first, but deter mined in tale ur of Mr. Golding, Clerk of Billingsgate, in support or the seize' e. Tice officer stated, that the seizure In question was made sty him, is the discharge of his duty, under the Act of Parliament, w hich prohibited the sale of salmon out of season, or wimp the female fish became filled with spawn, which was limi ted to the it th of Oc. oiler, when salmon fishing was actually forbidden by law. He was willing to give seven or eight days' grace, so that the supply received in the market might be dispo. sed of ; beyound that latitude this seizure was made. A sample was now produced of two very large salmon which, when opened, contained full roes. These were forbidden by law to be taken, inasmuch as each roe was supposed to supply next season to the" amount of ten thousacel young; which at one year's growth would be fit for market. This would make a material alteration as to the price of salmon in the London market ;—and but for this destruction of spawn, by taking such quantities of fist out of season, salmon, in the London market, might be as low as three pence, instead of nine pence, per pound, which tette,- was the average price for the last twelve months. The seizure was made also on the principle, that when the fish became &did with spawn it was " unwholesome fool" under the City Regu lations • while, by the Act of Parliament, the fishery was sus-. pendedboth as to male and female. Mr. Saunders replied to the charge. It had become a question of considerable impor tance, and he was anxious that his Lordship would give an im partial decision, not merely as it regarded the seizure made, but at it might affect the construction of the Act of Parliament in future. He wished it to be understood, that large quantities of salmon u ere consigned to him and other dealers present, from the salmon Fisheries is the North ; that these personi were to. tally ignorant that such supplies were by law prohibited after a certain period, provided the taking was not extended beyond the time of the general prohibitory Act. The Salmon Fisheries could not find a sale for the quantity taken, unless by consigning them to the London mat ket, and it was fit they should understand the terms upon which such seizure was made, so that they might stop taking fish at an earlier period than the Act prescribes ' • be. cause the supple was sometimes so great up to this period, th at it was impossible to find a market for the quantity consigned here within the given time. Mr. Golding observed, that the period should ese fixed to the 25th of September, instead of the 10th of October Def.ndants answered certainly tins was all they wished ; and that it might be understood, that the cooper: or fishers were not to make consignments after that period. Mean time it was requested that the supply of salmon received might be permitted to he sold. His Lordship said, that, with the exception of the female, it might : as far as it regarded salmon with spawn, the seizure must be held good. This decision was assented to by both parties. Bow •settex-r —Yesterday John Fee, charged with stealing a handkerchief from Mr. Evans, was committed for trial. William Gardener, Henry rates, Sophia Crouch, and Sarah Gar dener, were charged with stealing a box, and 2 cwt : of soap, the property of Mr. liouchin, King-street, Holborn, who stated, that on the evening of the Leath instant, the street door being open, the box with the soap was stolen out ef the passage, and a truck, which was placed outside the shop•window, was used to carry it away. Some of the patrole discovered the prisoners at the lodg ing of Crouch, in Charles-street, Drury-lane, where they also found the box and soap. The male prisoners were fully com mitted for the stealing, and the females for receiving the pro perty, knowing it to have been stolen. N. Edge-worth was examined on a charge of bigamy. Both mar riages being proved, be was committed for trial at the Old Bailey. HATTON-GARDEN.—Yestercby Lydia Case, 18 years of age, was charged with having stolen from the shop of Mr. B. Whims, linen-draper, St. John's-street, West Smithfield, two parcels, containing 13 silk handkerchiefs, value £4. Thompson, a pa trole, stated that he had seen the prisoner in company with a man, for several evenings, lurking about different shops in the ueighbourhood; and on Saurday evening he observed prisoner mak a sudden dart into the prosecutor's shop, and take from the counter the two parcels, when she endeavoured to escape. He pursued and took her, and brought her back to the shop ; but the man wire had been in her company ran off.—Committed to Newgate for trial. Henry Chittiei was charged by John Coutston, watchman, be loaging to Clerkenw ell-green, under the tollowlng circumstances : —Cuulston stated, that on going his rounds on Saturday night at eleven o'clock, defendant behaved himself in a disorderly man• nor white sitting at a door; that he told him to get up, and go away; but he answered he should not, and kicked him, and broke his lanthorn ; he then took turn to the watch-house. De fendant steed, that having a bad state of health, he was under the necessity of sitting at his door to take the air, when the watch man coming up, asked him what be did there ? He told bum he was at his own door, and should not go from ft. The watchman struck him, and gave him a black eye, and then dragged him to the watcfthouse. Several persons attended In behalf of the de fendant, who stated the ill usage be had received from the com plainant, and added, that they had offered to be hail fur his ap p arance, which was refused. The Magistrate dismissed the charge, recommending Mr. Chittick to indict the watchman for the assault and false imprisonment. John Terry, Thomas Graham, and Thomas Hardy, were charged on suspicion of stealing live poultry from the premises of several persons in the neighbourhood of Hampstead and Highgate.— Committed for another hearing. The prisoner Hardy was fur ther charged with having stolen an iron spade, the property of a cow-keeper at Hampstead. He was committed to Nevegate. The number of commitments to the New Prison, Clerkenwell, since the last Old Bailey Sessions, is no less than three hundred and twenty ! The paragraph which appeared in this and other Papers, stating that Admiral Bradley was on board the Indefatigable, on his way to Botany Bay, is not cor rect :—he is still at Winchester. _ Nay. SOUTH WALES.—The James Hay, GIBSON, from New South Wales, has arrived in the Downs : The Sydney Gazettes mention that some disputes had arisen between the settlers and the natives, which had been followed by acts of violence, and several persons on both sides had been killed. The mountain natives had been particularly troublesome at the more remote plantations. Colonel O'CONNELL, late Lieutenant- Governor, with his family, tad embarked on board the General Hewett transport to proceed to Ceylon. A colonial vessel had arrived from Poit Dalrymple, and had brought an unaccountable story of two most respectable persons, who held public situations, and who, it is ass, rted, had each of them taken the com mand of distinct detachments of banditti. A most diabolical attempt at robbery and murder was made on Thursday last, at the house of Mr. J. Ebbutt, a gentleman farmer, at Swanley, in the par ish of Sutton, at Slone, near Dartford. A ruffian-like fellow knocked at the kitchen door, about 7 o'clock in the evening, and on Sarah Asley, the servant, open ing it, he rushed forward into the parinur, where Mr. E. Ebbutt, who is an aged man and infirm, was sit ting with a friend, Mr. Motile. The robber was armed with a bludgeon, and the shrieks of the gill having alarmed Mr. Ebbutt arid his friend, the latter grap pled with him, in doing which he received some in jury about the head. Ihe robber called out for assis tance, and was joined by a companion from without the door, who presented a pistol at Mr. Ebbutt's breast, which, providentially, flashed in the pan, and tbe -villains theo retreated. The house stands at a gryatdistance from any other ; the servant flew to the ope nearest, and assistance was procured, but the assailants could not be found. T.

PARISIAN MODES, OCT. 20.—The Bonnet—Toques, turned up before and ornamented with one or two plumes laid fiat, is in the greatest vogue. In general they are of black velvet, with whole feathers; but we also see them of whole reps bordered with white and yellow, or with rose and white, and with the plumes panachees. Bonnets are also made in the ordinary form in plain black velvet, and trimmed with white tulle, in round plaits, and some of them besides the tulle, have a white blonde which forms a demi-veil. Some white toques trimmed with an esprit, placed obliquely, are surrounded with a doable row of silk; it resembles turbans. Some new silks used by the modists, have one stripe of spangled velvet and the other of reps. Flowers are getting out of fashion. The hair is not dressed so high, but it is still a Chinoiae. The plaits with which they trim gossus are different both in colour and stuff—they intermix satin with rep, and gros de Naples. Some girdles are fastened with clasps in the I farm of the fleur delis. FlRM—Wednesday morning, about two o'clock, a fire was discovered in a cottage. at Exbury, in the 1 New Forest, Hants, occupied by a widow woman of the name of Rake. In about three hours the building was entirely destroyed, and, on removing the ruins, the corpse was found in a most shocking state, being literally burnt to a cinder. She was supposed to be possessed of cash to a considerable amount, and seve ral guineas, with other coins, partly melted, were re covered by the people, while searching for the body of the unfortunate tenant. Thursday se'nnight a fire broke nut at a cottage at Gazely, which at first threatened destruction to five others adjoining, and the farm-yard, b tins, &c. near thereto, but by the timely assistance of some young men holiday-making in the village, who yery actively ' sript the adjoining roofs, it was got under without much injury, except destroying the roof, aad damaging the timbers of the cottage in which it first broke out. Monday, the 10th instant, between four and five o'clock in the afternoon, a fire was dicovered in the middle of one of the bays of corn in the barn belong ing to the farm of Mr. Isaac Lewis, of Stanstead, Suf folk, which was entirely consumed, with the produce in barley and seed clover of 22 acres of land therein; and the flames soon communicated (by means of a stack of straw between) to the dwelling-house, nearly the whole of which, with part of the furniture, was also destroyed, together with the gables, outhouses, two waggons, a hay and stover stack, and nearly all the implements in husbandry belonging to the farm. Friday se'nnight, as Mr. Thomas Pain, proprietor and driver of a caravan from Ramsgate to Deal, was alighting from his vehicle at the door of the Three Colts public-house, in Sandwich, he fell to the ground, at the instant a waggon heavily loaded with canary was going by, the tore wheel of which passed over his head and neck, and otherwise so materially in. jured him, that his recovery is extremely doubtful.
