SURItt NDEIt OF ARMS MY THF, PRASANTRT.— in our last we bad the satisfaction to announce, that owing to the praiseworthy exertions of two Roman Catholic clergymen, 19 stand of arms had been de livered to them within the last few days, in the parishes of Alorragh and Ballinhassig, and we anti cipated that this good example would be followed, as the best proof of returning peace and tranquillity. It is now our pleasing duty to acknowledge a com munication front the parishes of Ballymartlo and Collin, which states that 14 guns, one pistol, one sword, with sonic ammunition, had been this week sent in to the magistrate, the Rev. John Meade, and the Rev. T. O'Reilly, parish priest of that district. Ltsteetics..—We heartily congratulate our readers on the almost total cessation of disturbances in this county for the last week, the city and liberties arc in a similar happy condition—if we except a few comparatively truing lawless acts of insubordination which took place near Newcastle, the entire county Las maintained a state of tranquillity, nor have we beard of any outrages in the neighbouring counties. Without doubt the severe operation of the Insur rection Act has mainly contributed to the restora. tiny of security and peace—still we think that this calm will be but deceitful uctil all the arms are de livered up, which have been so extensively plun dered from the peaceable and loyal. To arrive at this object every possible exertion should be used. On Wednesday the I:.:th inst. were apprehended, James Fitzgibbon, and James Bridgman, who are fully committed fhr the murder of R. Going, Esq. OA We les:lay last, at a general meeting of the subscribers to Lloyd's, a sum was voted for the pur.. pose of cutting caves and steps in the cliffs in the v.cinity of Bcachy Head, for affording protection to the crews and passengers of vessels which may he. unfortunately wrecked on that dangerous coast, un til they can relieved from their distressed situation; nn3 it was staled that the lords of the manors bag vm their consent to so laudable a plan, which will, uo il,abt, when carried into effect, be the means of raving many valuable lives.

On Tuesday the seventh annual meeting of the East London Auxiliary Bible Society was held at the London Tavern. The meeting was very numerously attended particularly by ladies. Lord GAMBIER took the Chair, and after a few obser vations on the excellence of the cause in which the meeting was engaged, proposed that the Secretary should read the report, which was accordiugly done, The report commenced with assigning the cause which prevented the meeting being called sooner, which it stated was owing to the ever-to-be-lamented death of the i)uke of Kent, who was the patron of the Society, and the constant citairma'n of uteetitigs, and the precatioos state of health of the Duke of Sussex, who had readily agreed to become the patron of the society, but was un able to attend as chairman ul the meeting. The report proceeded to state the great success which the exertions of the society had lows attended; that :Mice its commencement 5':51i1. itts ed. had been re ceived iu aid of its object, and I 1,W6 bibles distributed; and mentioned, that an association had been lately formed for the distribution of bibles, in the parish of Shorediteh, by Ludy Elizabeth Whitbread, that was likely to be attended with the greatest success, and it was hoped would stimulate others to an imitation of her bene volent example. The report then entered into a long detail of the pro-eedings of the British and Foreign Bible Society ; and also of the Bible Societies formed in different parts of the world, on the plan of the British, and influenced by the example of this country. Front these details it appeared that the circulatioa of the scriptures is rapidly increasing in every ciiristian country, and that great efforts are making, to extend it to heathen nations. The extent of the efforts by the circulation of the bible, made by the societies established in Russia, was remarkably striking, upwards of 400,001) copies of the scriptures having been printed there in thirty-five different languages, for distribution to the subjects of that Mute:use empire, and the heathen nations adjoining. Alter the report had beets gone through, the secretary read a note from Mr. Buxton, enclosing a donation of ten guineas.--A note was also read from Nlr.flyug, M.P. apologising for his absence. Mr. Roam'. liumPasey lklitsrms moved, that the report be received and adopted, lie said that he con sidered the highest honour the city of London, the greatest its the world, could enjoy, was to support insti gations for the promo:ion of religion and morality; and it must be a delightful reflection to Englishmen, that other nations were receiving the glorious light that was sent forth from this. It had beets well said of %hi; country, let misery abroad draw on liberality here, and and the whole nation will answer the draft. Every one may do something, and if all exert the means God has given them the aggregation of good will astonish. Toe report was adopted unanimously. Resolmions of thanks to the patron of the society, the Duke of Sussex, and the President, the Earl of Darnley, and the Vice Presideuts, were also carried unanimously; as was a resolution for adding Mr. Charles Grant to the number of V ice Presidents. Thanks were then voted to Lord G insider by accla mation; alter which the meeting separated. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY. TtIENDAT. MARCH 19. IMPORTANT eoisT OM PRACTIGH. On the Lind Chancellor unuing into Court, he proceeded to give his decision out an application made by Mr. Schroder, a highly respectable citizen of Loudon, fir leave to ale bills, or prmwcute any other proceeding in propria perluno,%ithuut the assistance of Counsel. Phis gentleman, a few days since, addressed his Lordship at considerable length, contending that 110 point of practice could supersede the right of the subject to appear is all his filaiesty's courts of Justice. The Lord Chancellor in giving his decision, declared that the application of Mr. Schroder required what was , contrary to the practice of the Court, which his Lordship considered part of the law of the land, and w hick had heel, acted upon by the nowt learned men that had ever presided there.

The Bank of Eng zitid have bur one prosecution, which was disposed of to-day, as follows James G oo dwill was indicted fur knowingly uttering to kirancis Porter Molloy, at Chart next Simms Valence, on the of January last, a 64 ;4 (41 Bank of England HOW, for the payment of 51. with intent to defraud said bank.—lt appeared ii) evidence that on the day above mentioned, at :,even in the morning, the prisoner went to the Buffalo's Head public-house, kept by a person . named Molloy, and tendered the note in question, re questing change to pay Tor abont 3 , 7,6 d. worth of liquor he had drank. The landlord said tie had not change, but upon the prisoner saying he most go in oust, Or something of that kind, tur the liquor, he produced the change, gave the prisoner our sovereigns, and the rest p e rson in the house named Edw. Chandler, seemed to know the prisoner, and addressed him by the name of Jein Goodwin. The landlord asked the pri soner if his name was James Goodwin, and he said it 'lhe prisoner si.iyed 2 day or two afterwards, pay ing, for what lie had to cat or think. On the 'Atli of Januny the landlord had paid the note to his liquor. merchants, Messrs. Prentice, of Maidstone, and Wrottl the name of James Smith upon the back of it. On the 6th of February, Messrs. Prentice wrote to the land fool, accpainting him that the note had been stopt at the Hank of E n glund a.; a largely. A description was then given of the prisoners person, and in two or three days afterwards he was apprehended. Wheu the con stable asked him if his name was James Goodwin, he said it was not, and that his name was Body. Berme the magistrates he admitted that his name was boles Goodwin. and said that he had taken the note in ties non and three milers of a person named Wilson, at Biddenden Fair, in November, in payment tit some pieces of silk ha folk erchiefs, and that he had print away three of them to Mr. Thomas Wood, of Lyric!, in the county. Mr. Wood was now examined, and said, that though he had known the prisoner for sonic years, yet he had never received of him in any way three 11. notes during the last or the present year. Ile had not seen the rt. soner for the last twelve months. In order further to confirm the alleged guilty know. ledge of the prisoner, it was proved that he had uttered. on the of Deeember, another Raged Al. note to the wife of a publican, named Barham, at licadcorn, ht this county. At that house he had paid a small r. ek (ming, amounting to titl. with the tune then tendered, and received tbe change. The prisoner had been in trouble before on account of selling contraband goods. and was stated to be a smugglers An inspector from the Bank of England, proved that both the notes were forgeries in every particular, and had been muck oft' the same plate, and were of the same date. The prisoner said nothing in his defence, but called one witness, who gave bins an excellent character. Mr. Baron Wood summing op the evidence, and the Jury found the prisoner guilty—death. i 9 --The hostiles, of the Civil Side com menced to•day before the lion. Baron Graham.--The whole of the day was occupied in trying the three fol. lowing causes, all of which arose out of the sante sob. jeer of litigation between the parties. THE. KING V. ittcHmin GU LiE, Una% AND OTHERS. This was an indictoieut t t -•ainst Richard Gude, Gent. an attorney of the Court of King's Bench, and one of the clerks of the Crown Office, Mary Ann, his wife, William W hitehorn, John Franklin, Amadis Thornton, Robert Jordan, Thomas rientish, and --- Brockman, for violently dissening and txpclling James Hall from the undivided moiety . of a freehold messuage at Margate, to H hicii he was entitled as tenant, in gavel kind with the defendant, Richard Gude, and for assaulting hint on the 24th of April last. The case proved in evidence was this s—The prose. color, NH. Hall, is a w me-merchant at Margate; and Mr. Gude is a respectable attorney, and etnployed m the Crown-office. Both gentlemen had purchased respectively the interests of twit tenants in gravel-kind, named Silver. in a freehold house, situate at tile corner of the High street, next the pier, at Margate, in the begin:nog of last year. It scented that each was engaged in two rival steam-packet companies, to carry passengers, ikc. from London to Margate. It was alleged on the part of the defendant, Mr. Gude. that Mr. Hall had agreed that he, Mr. Gude, should remain in the sole possession of the premises in question, the latter paying a rent for Mr. Hall's undecided moiety in the house, and that acting upon this understanding he had fitted up the house, repaired and fornislted it at run. sitlerable expellee, and had sent his family down (tutu London to dwell there as a residence. On the part of Mr. flail, however, it was alleged that he had refined to allow Mr. Gude to occupy his halt of the premises, and had determined to resist the sole oc. cuparion on the terms contended fur by Mr. Gude. The latter, acting on the understanding above-mentioned, gave oirectious to his wile, during his absence in Lon don, not to permit Mr. Hall, or any other persons, to in wide into the house, and gave written instructions to four of the defendants to resist any such intrusion, and plotnised to indemnify them lor any costs, trouble or ex pellees to which they might be et from obedience in his instructions. On the 24th of April, when NI:. Gude was absent in London, the prosecutor, wettt to the House for the purpose of obtain es iug passe of his undivided moiety of the premises, and was •attentled by a person named John Dye, whom he intended to leave in possession. Mrs. Gude was then on the pre mises, and told the prosecutor her htithand's and recommended him nut to act as he proposed. How ever, Mr. Hall left his man in possession of one of Ma parlours, took the keys of three rooms, which he gam to the man and removed some arbeles of furniture out of the parlour mentioned. Soon after Mrs. Gude called in the assistance of the other defendants, and the malt kit in possession was by theist turned out of the house. .--On the same day Mr. Hall brought a carpenter and blacksmith to nail up against the premises a show-board, intimating that that was the office of the steam-packet to which he belonged. Whilst the men were fastening up the show.board, he got into one of the windows, and was by the other defendants violently turned out of the house. These transactions formed the subject of the first sets of counts. On the 6th of May following, being Sunday, the prosecutor went to the house, just as Nlr. Gude was settim* off to Ramsgate by a stage-coach which waited at the door, and when he ascended the stone steps which ascended to the door, Mr. Gude came out, shottitig the doer after him, Mr. Gude savored him to retire, or else be would do something, and alter some time held tip his doubled list. The prosec utor, in a loud voice, asked him what he would do, Mr. ('tide `sail lie should know hereafter, and dropt his arm upon winch the prosecutor retired. Jr wit: distinctly proved that MG Gude was imt piesent ss Mir the first alleged assault WAS committed, and 11411 C of the other derelidaiitS Were pre. sent when the second was committed. The prosecutor had afterward; obtained judgm ent in je ct hi , share of the pietai;es and is now in p ossesstou of Me same. e mein or
