The Coausei, hou ever, Wile_ to make out his case by evidence, the plaiond was timisiitted• ',AwI:ON, v. BoYne. N 1 r. Campbell stated this case to the Jury. The pldiutiff is an ingenious mechanic, a maker of gas ap paratus, the defendant was a West India Captain, trading to Jamaica, and being desnoils of taking out a gasometer as an article of commercial speculation, he called on the plaintiff and ordered one to he made. The work was illimediately put in hand, this was iii 1818, in July, and the defendant went frequently to see the work iu its progress. When finished, it was shipped by the authority of the delend:int, under the orders of a Mr. Nlasecr, and it went to Jamaica. Subsequent., appli cation was made fur payment, but without success, and the present action was Lrought to recover the amount of die plaintiff's demand 3. The defendant resisted payment cm several grounds.—. Amongst whets, that the order was not given to the present plaintiff, but to his sun—that the order was not executed till long alter the time agreed on, in Collire" qUNICe of which the defendant sailed without it, and it was sent alter him ; and further, that it was made ten s larger titan the order specified, and was more fit to light a street than a shop, tor which it was intended. The consequence 01 which was, that it was thrown on the plaintiff's hands, and lie hail left it unsold behind him. [lie theatre had indeed made • an otter for it, but he could not accept it, as they offered hint bills in payment, and he diet nut choose to depend on their credit. The J ury, after hearing the witnesses on both sides, found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages ► ail. Ids. !,:d. —Costs 40s. FRIDAY, JAN. 12. YEMItLES V. BRAIStCFL. Mr. Scarlett stated this case to the Jury. The plain he said, had to complain of as grievous an injury as any one commercial 111311 could sustain 1 . 1 - 0111 another.— The plaintiff was a merchatti, formerly residing at Hour deaux, and the defendant a tut:telt:int in London. In 1814 the plaintiff sent a cargo of brandy :0 this country on board a Russian ship called the Charles, with letters to the defendant, who had nutlet taken to advise him as to a proper port to which to send it fur sale, inentioiting Lubec or Ilainburgh, but at the same time leaving it to the better judgment of the defendatit to send it any where else. Tile defendant undertook the charge, but did not send the cargo to either of the ports metwoned, but selected Dattizie, a port the most improper of any to the Baltic, there being no sale for the article at that port, although it was subjected to a very high duty and to various other charges. It would ap appear that these objections were well known to the defendant, who, however, scut them there to serve his own purpose, as lie consigned the bills of lading to a house at Dantz c, with instructions that the proceeds of the cargo of the Charles should be renamed iti The Daman: house being to send ,20,0001. worth of wheat to this country, for the amount. The cargo ar rived at Dantzic, and the wheat was sent, but some dis pute arose respecting the acceptance on the part of the defendant. Ihe plaintiff's brandy found no sale, but the agents of the defendant, p.t U 1 agen and Co., retained them as security for the wheat sent to the defendant, and in this state they were kept till 1816, when ,defendant settlii,g his disputes whin Upliagen, respecting the ac ceptances, the brandies wen: given up, and sent back to Lugland, what remained of them unsold; but such had been the waste, by leakage and otherwise, the insurance freight, re-shipment duties, and other ilyences, that, on the account betitg stated, toe plaintiff found that the cargo, winch had originally cost him 10,0001. had pro duced nit sale only 23671. Ud. 6d., whilst the charges on it were 26421. I7s. The plaintiff flail, as he alleged, sustained this loss through the intsconduct of the deten ilatil, and now sought to recover a compettsatioit by the verdict of a Jury. Mr. Scarlett called a number of witnesses to support this case. Mr. Marryatt, on the part of the defendant, addressed the Jury at considerable length, and contended that his client was not liable. By his instructions he was bound to send the brandies to some port in the Baltic, 4101 Datitzie, for may thing winch appeared on the evidence, Was as elyble as any - Baltic port which could have been selected. If the Uphai;etts had illegally detaiiied the cargo liar a dentaild 14:4111S1 a third person, and the plain tiff had been injured by that detention, the Upliagens must iiiiSwee fin their own art, Ile also put in letters to prove that the defendant bad represetiled to the plaintill that the speculation of senility, brandies to the Baltic was likely to prove unprofitable. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages The case occtipi.il iii r Court ten hours, and did not end till past nine: it‘lock at itigitr. LEAMINGTON SPA Stevenson has re signed the situation of Master of the Ceremonies the annual value of which is now estimated at 8001. and the increase of which is certain front the pro gressive though rapid increase of this popular watering place. Several Candidates me already in action, and we doubt not but a spirited contest may be looked fir. Captain Lyon, who lately returned from the mission into the interior ul Africa, is appointed to the iiechs, and to accompany Capt. Parry on the next expedition fur the northern tthicovery. f' • =, - tempestuous weather in the Bay of Naples. We cannot describe the ceremony better than in quoting a passage from one of the private letters. " The embarkation," says the writer, " was a truly beau tifid sight. His Majesty was carried from the shore in the launch of the English Admiral, having the Admiral on his right, and the Princess de Patent t who accompanied him) on his left hand, At that instant a royal salute was fired front the French and English fleets at anchor in the bay, with colours flying, And the yard of every vessel manned. The royal standard of Naples was hoisted at the main of the Vengtatr, the moment the King came on board. The natural grandeur of the scene was increased by one of the finest days of the season, the sun shining brilliantly, and the sky without a cloud.— The ceremony, however, had scarcely terminated, when a very different spectacle was presented. The wind changed, the sky grew cloudy, the weather became turbulent, and by night had increased to a storm. In the darkness and confusion, the Vengcar and Revolutionaire ran foul of each other, and the former received so much damage, that both vessels put into Baia, where they remained till the 16th, on which day the royal party sailed with favourable winds fur Leghorn. The event of the storm ope.. rating on the minds of a people naturally addicted to superstition, produced a thousand gloomy pre says respecting the royal journey." CLEItICAL DELICACY: 0U Monday the 18th ult. a loyal address to her Majesty, which had been previously voted at a most numerous public meeting of the parish of Itotherhithe, was presented by a deputation headed by a banner, which banner was subsequently deposited in the Committee Room at the parish Workhouse. On the Wednesday follow ing, in discharge al a part of his duty, the Rector attended at the Workhouse, to read prayers, and perceiving the banner, sent the following Christian like letter, directed to the Churchwardens of St. Mary, Rotherhithe : " Rectory House, Rotherhithe, Dec. V. " Gentlemen,—Having yesterday observed a flag belonging to your cavalcade of Monday lust conspicuously raised in the large loom of the Workhouse of this parish, I take leave to hay, that I shall not again perform divine service in such Workhouse till this banner is removed from so unsuitable a place. " t have the honour to remain, Gentlemen ' your very faithful servant, " K. JONES, D.D." To which the following very proper reply was sent : " tiir,—We have received your letter of the 21st, and feel sue pri.ed at the menacing and arrogant position you have taken. " We are astonished at your presumption iu attetnpung to dictate to us in what manner we ate to amiluet ourselves on public measures. The banner to which you allude has been placed by us in the Committee Itoom, where it will remain. " We should feel unworthy ut' the situation we till, were we to allow ourselves to be influenced by any party tuan, whatever his, situation or pretensions may be. " Before we conclude •we take leave to say,' that we are of opinion your time would have been much more suitably em ployed in the cultivation niche Christian graces of meekness and charity, and in the pouqual mid conscientious discharge of the various duties appertaining to your clerical character, rather than in making a voluntary and unprovoked attack upon a respectable body of men, who have 'newly exercised a constitutional and indisputable right, in common with a large majority of their fdlow-parishioners." Titus the business rests at present, and if the Reverend Rector adhere to his determination, the unfitrtunate inhabitants of the Workhouse will be deprived of religious comfort and instruction, be cause this intolerant Priest is annoyed by the sight of this symbol of the joy felt by his parishioners at the detection and failure of an infamous conspiracy. One of the churchwardens, and the ringers of Charlton Maekrell, Somerset, having denied the right of the Rector (the ltuv. Mr. Sharpe) to control the ringing of the church bells, the latter has con sulted Dr. Lushington on the subject, and the following is the substance of the Doctor's opinion on the questions put to him by the Rector :-... " That the consent of the minister (whether incumbent or curate) is necessary to autlwrize the ringing of bells in the church; and that the consent of either or both elaireliWitrdelll, without the ' '. ter's consent, is not sufficient. That the minister's consent to the ringing of the bells most alasys be had : if the two churchwardens differ, the consent of the minister and one chutchwarden would be sufficient; but the t ousent of Ihe minister against both churchwardens would not justify the tinging, nor would the consent of both dim Omar& its against the minister authorize it. That the minister has authority to limit the time of ringing, and that the ringci A are bound to ohey him. And that 110 person 1105 a right, without the consent of the minister (whether incumbent or curate), to place flags, garlands, or any thing else, either in or upon the chinch, or in the church-yard." It Was expected that the Dividends now paying on the Three per Cents. would have been paid in the new Bank notes, but they are not, to the great dis appointment of the public, nor is :nuy time specified when they are to be issued. Ev;Ty day's delay is a matter - of regret, as it is expected that they will, in a great degree, diminish the number of thrgeries.

Mr. Gurney stated, that this was an action by the plaintin,illl Lash lodic lap la mu , to let:over t rom Mr. Bttl- Cuu.u, a inercloint,at St. licleva, 1211. for goods sold and 11111111 Cy received for his use. The defendant pleaded, lust, that he aas but liable, and, secondly, the statute of Iliudtation. The last Me.. he should dispose of by proving an application within the last six 'ears, and as to his lia bility, the following were the clrcuutxtauces out of which it arose :-111 lii 1O the plaintiff delivered to the defendant, ern his touching at St. Helena, several different sorts of goods to be sold. Amongst them were 121 bolts of Bengal canvas, which Air. Raleondt was was to sell at St. Helena if he could get 41. lOs. per bolt fur it; if it would not fetch that price, it was to be sent to Mr. Antyott, the plaintiff's agent at the Cape of Good Hope, and to be represented as Portuguese goods, to avoid the objection to them as India goods at the Cape. lit 1510, when the plaintiff again touched at the Gape, Mr. lialeulin deli- Nered hint au account of tij bolts sold on the island, and staled that the other 40 had been befit to Rio Jancutu, and bold there tu a pet sou named Hall, on whom in England the defendant gave plaintiff au order to receive the pro duce, 1211. is. hut. Pl . took the order, butt could sieves find Mr. Hall, and now sought payment of the defendant, on the grounds of his having disposed of the goods to Hall contrary to his instructions, which were, to send them to Mr. Amyott at the Cape. Mr. Marryittl, for the defendant, contended, that his client was nisei 'acted to send the goods to the Cape by way of Rio; in no other way could they have had the ap rcerauce 01 Portuguese goods given to them; and Wallet lie contended, that the present turn, of action for money had and reel IVI.II, and fur not accounting fur the goods, could nut be i.upported. No money had been received, and the defendant had accounted fin the manner in which they had been dispostd The Chief Justice said, if there had been a collusion to represent tlivst goods as Portuguese, to evade the Navi gation Act, neither party could sustain an action. it Wei e was no such collusion, he was still of opinion this was not the molter form of action; it should have been au action of novel. He should turnstile the plaintiff, giving hint leave to move to set aside that utinsuit, and have a verdict entered for the amount of his demand.- Plaintiff nonsuited.• COWIE V. ItAI.sALL. This was an ruction on a bill of exchange, drawn by a person named Daniels, for '291. accepted by the defendant, dated Dee.
