!S. COURT OF OF CIIANCERY.-B•TveDAT, Fie. 24. iLLIWPON P. VMS, GLOSSOP, A: 4 ID OTIIKRS. Mr. HART said was instructed to make an applies fan to the Court for a renewal of the injunction which Tad been formerly granted, to restrain the defendants ft-altn performing a drama called " Therese' at the Coburg theatre. Mr. AGAR hare interrupted the Learned Gentleman, a”.l said that if his motion was founded on any facts :ontained in the former bill or answer, he was en titled to make it; but be (Mr. Agar) understood that revere! new affidavits had been filed yesterday by the ; and it was contrary to the usual practice . s the Court to allow the omissions in a bill to be sup p.ird by new affidavits. Mr. HART resumed. It had been represented on a former occasion that an injunction had been obtained .4;:ainst the defendants without an affidavit being made the plaintiff. Tins was a mistake, the plaintiff hied an affidavit, which was sent to the Register of ti..e ; and when it was returned from thence, it was n'ascovered that an erasure, which was quite immaterial an Itself, but which the practice of the Court required should be countersigned by the Master, had not received the necessary verification. The affidavit 's as there fore sent back to receive the necessary correction ; soil on account of this delay it was that it could not be pro 'lured in Court when called for. He stated this to re lieve Mr. Ellistoit from the imputation of having ob tained an injunction unsupported by any affidavit. It was proper also that the Court and the public should Le set right on another point respecting Mr. Elliaton's conduct. Oa the morning on which the injunction was granted, Mr. Elliston sent a note to the defendants, informing *Wm of the circumtanee, and stating at the same time, that as the piece was advertised far per formance that evening, to prevent disappointment to time public, he gave his kill permission that it should he enacted. With respect to the affidavits whirl. were now proposed to be read to the Court, the Lea: eti Counsel contended that they contained no mew matter but what arose oat of the answer of the defendants, and therefore ought tobe received In the answer of the .I..fendant!, they deny that their drama is the same as that of the plaintiff; it was the object of the affidavits la prove the identity of the two dramas. The Court observed that it was evident the plaintiff never meant to take any unfair advantage! of the de tendants, and that the circumstance mentioned br Mr. Hart sufficiently accounted for the fact of Mr. Eliiston not being ready with his affidavits on a former iicra ...ion. It was proper, however, that the defendants should be allowed time to read the new affidavits, and ace whether they could answer them. Mr. liana. said that he had no objection to allow the defendants time, if they required it. They co►►ld reply most effectually to the allegation of the affidavits by producing a copy of their drama. The plaintiff could only prove the identity of the performances by producing a printed ropy of the piece perfumed at his theatre, and representing, by parole evidence, the characters and language of the piece performed at th,• defendants' theatre. The question at issne might ap- pear of little importance, When viewed only with re spect to one farce; but it became of great importance when considered with reference to the great property r sted in the patent theatres. It had lately become the practice, when a new piece had been produced at one of the large theatres, awl obtained a large portion of public favour, fur the proprietors of the minor thea tres to send persons to take notes of the performance, so that they are enabled to play the same piece, to the ?.erious injury of the theatre at which it was originally produced. The decision of the Court in the present case would determ'ite whether this practice would ! henceforth be permitted. Mr. AnAR said that Mr. Elliston haying mole an . affidavit so incorrect that it could not be received, the rr.estion was, whether the Court wonld allow his bill to be amended by new evidence. The Court had al sysys maintained that when a person filed a bill he s'.natid state the whole of his case, and that he should eat be allowed afterwards to amend it by new evidence. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he could not de- Pritaine whether the new affidavits contained improper ! matter until he heard them read. )(the new affidavits contained matter, not in addition to, but merely in ex- I pixilation of, the former affidavits, they must be re-; eared. The defendants Counsel bad better decide whether they would take time to examine the peti tions, or hear them read, and then object to them. Mr. AGAR.—My Lord, we meet the allegations of identity by stating distinctly, that we employed and paid s person for translating our drama frow the french. The Loan Cit.sscattott.—lf you prove that, it will he sufficient for you. If l translate one of Terence's. comedies, and perform it at my theatre, you will have richt to translate the same comedy, knd perform it as , tt would he very different if some of the s: art hand writers were to get into my theatre and tarry away my translation as they do every thing else., Mr. HART observed, that though the defendants 5r..41 that they had caused a translation to be made' *rem the French drama, yet they did not say that the p:cee now performing by them was the piece so translated. The plaintiff intends to show that his piece i:. not entirely a translation from the French ; in his drama the title and characters differ from those of the ; yet it was singular that the defendants, in rig their pretended translation, had bit upon the mime title and characters as tlaose adopted by the phfintiff. S. • The Loan Clicticat.r.on.—Tkat is a very material means of proof. 1 renieniher that in a•ease respecting the piracy of the copy-right of a book of roads, it was found that all the errors contained in the original I.nrit were copied into the spurious edition. Trot I trick this piece will be over at both-theatres before )na decide whether or not )ou will proceed with the rose. Mr. Aaaa.—l can only repeat that I know of no ease in which a petitioner has been allowed to add to Lis bill by new affidavits.

The road . in question being much frequented by stage coaches and hay cat's, the toes of pedestrians were put is jeopardy by the alteration. Mr. SCARIATT, for the defendants, went upon the act of parliament, which imposed it upon the company to make their bridges at least 38 feet wide. The Lono Cruse Jurrica thought that, in point of law, the public were entitled to call upon the com pany for as convenient a way as the way taken from then,. Mr. SCARLETT then proposed to show that public convenience was in no way affected by the erection of the bridge. The Jury, however, were of opinion that the canal company's defence would nut hold water, and a verdict of guilty was recorded, subject to legal revision upon the construction of the act of parliament. m GENT. r. GI N LL. D. This was an action by the late Vestry Clerk of the parish of Saint Matthew, Bethnal-green, for a libel alleged to have been published, as we understood, by the late Sheriff of Loudon, concerning certain sup posed abuses in the plaintiff's office of vestry clerk. When the Special Jury panel was called over, only one gentleman appeared, and as the parties declined pricing a tales, the ease went over to the sittings after nest term. —New 110ARD OF EXCISE. Fra. 23. THE KINO r. FENToN AND YLANNACAN. This was au information against Timothy Fenton and Charles Flannagan, late of Lawrence-street, St. lilies's, charging them with using a certain nnentered and illegal still, for the purpooe of defrauding the Revenue, by which they subjected themselves to the penalty of 2001. For a considerable time past the Excise have been aware that a private distillery, monist extensive in its various ramifications, has existed somewhere in St. (tiles's, and different methods were resorted to to dis cover it. Accident at length effected what all the sagarity and profess' I knowledge of the most expe rienced Excisemen had failed to accomplish. Fitzhew, inn. and Drewitt, two officers of Exeine, had received information that there was a quantity of smuggled liquor concealed in a warehouse kept by the de• fendants in St. Odes's; thither Ilio•y accordingly pro ceeded. Ott entering. the shop they were surprised at the small shot• of business which it presented. A mean looking Irishwoman, who called herself Mos. Flannagan, was the only persooo in the plac.•, and she informed them that her Isualoanol was from biome, hut that they were at liberty tos-arch the premises as ri gorously as they pleased. Fitzhew proceeded up stairs, and in a bed•rooon, discovered a jar mot raw spi rits, for which no permit 11'011101 J. produced; on search ing farther a jar (nil of lasses was found in a small apartment detached from the shop, of all of which 3lra. Flannagan declared herself wholly ignorant. '1 he discovery of the molasses convineed the officers that distillation had been, or was then, carrying on some where en the premises, and they dome:jut-1 to have a vigilant search. For this purpose they went in dif ferent directions—Fitshew np stairs, and his c•ompa nion Derwin on thE ground part. The latter disco vered a ladder, which appeared to lead to a cellar or kitchen ; he descended in the dark, and suddenly found himself in a hole, something resembling a grimed kitchen ; here he groped about, hut finding nothing likely to forward his object, was about to ascend, when a distant rumbling noise struck his ear : he listened—time noise still continued, and at length he In...rd yoicca, which seemed to proceed from some adjoiniag apartment. Ile obtained a light, and af:rr ex amining the wall around, hi diacovered a email tunnel or arch, most ingeniously constructed of brick work, and ahont large enough to admit a men in a crouching position at a distance he beard voices, and saw a faint Halo, and having too doubt but this subterranean passage led to the distillery, Ise determined to explore it. Drawing iris sword, he entered the opening, crawling on his hands and knees ; after he hail got about twelve yards in, the passage got wider, and he was at length able to Stand erect. He discovered that he had got into a cavern, something resembling those described in romance ; and he stood motionless for a f-w minovea, anxious to bee what might he going on. A large lamp hung front the centre of the roof, be the light of which ha observed the two defendants &Inlay engaged at their illicit pursuits: there was a tolerably large still, worm, and head in the cavern; as also (4 jars, containing about 140 gallons of molasses, besides 10 gallons of British raw spirits, all of which he seized. In the meantime Fitzhew having failed in his search, came to the cellar in quest of leis b other officer, and re nained at time entrance of the winding mond, in order to secure the prisoners at they came out. Drew itt, then ads-aerial into the place and called upon the two men to surrender ; they were completely astounded, and did not attempt to offer any resistance, hot said they had been driven to such a coofians of life through the hardness of the timers. Both of them then advanced and crawled out through the cavity, Drewitt closing on t heuilhehi•ol, and Fitzhew at the toft he place ready to seize them when they came out ; hut strange to say, notwithstanding all those precautions, they booth escaped through some other passage, and have never since been heard of. All the article• were seized and lodged in his Majesty's storehouse, and although every endeavonr has been made to trace the defendants, they have hitherto evaded all inquiry. On examining the outside, or roof of the cavern, it was discovered that the excavation ran underneath the yards of several house, and was built in a masterly manner, and what is rather strange, none of the neighbours were privy to th • transaetinn. Mr. Elgood, the Entry Clerk, proved that there was no entry of the still in question, at the Excise Office. Mrs. Flannagan now presented herself to the Court, and stated that her husband, as soon as he made his escape, proeee:led to Ireland, leaving her destitute with six small children, and no possible means of support ing them. She assured the Learned Commissioners that be reteivrd very little emolument from the con cern, that he had been led into it by a French- man, who received all th e pro fi ts, and ranaloded be- 1 hind the curtain. The Con u'r said, that the evidence was quite conclu sive as to the possession, and that the defendants RCM the luxe fide proprietors, was plain from their abscond lag.

ABRAHAM) stated that this was an action for the recovery of the sum of 12/. 17e. for goods sold and delivered to Augusta Corti, a Lady who has passed herself off for a long time as Lady Hawke ; a title, however, to which she had no claim, as it subsequently appeared.—The Learned Counsel said that the plaintiffs were,in 1815. ladies' hat-manufacturers in Bond-street, and bad supplied articles to the amount mentioned to the de fendant, who, instead of paying so small a bill, pre ferred submitting it to the Jury. Mary Ann Lloyd proved ttat she went, in 1815, to Manchester-square, where Lady Hawke (as she called herself) then lived. The straw bonnets she carried were not liked by the Lady, but she described one, and ordered it to be trimmed like no other bonnet that ass ever seen ; indeed, she was so very particular is the way she wanted the feathers put, that witness was obliged to tell her Ladyship, there was no other way or putting them on but by sticking the feathers At the tip-top of the bonnet, a plan, of %%bids she highly approved. The bonnet was made accordingly, and delivered to the lady's mind. Cross-examined.—Witness bad never seen her Ladyship before, though she might have seen Lord Hawke, but of that she bad no recollection. The order was delivered in May ltl:s,and the hill accord ingly sent in to the Ladr at No. 12, Manchester•systare. The bonnet had plenty of trimmings, French flowers, and no less than 12 feathers. Mr. DEsmax—What is your defence? Mr. SCARIATT.--I say she is Lady Hawke, and has pleaded as Baroness Hawke. The CIIIKP JraTter—Witness, to whom were you desired to carry the bonnet ? Witness—To Lally Hawke. Mr. SCARLET said he had but a few words to say. This lady claimed to he by marriage the wife of Lord 11411.10.. I t was true that the latter hid tiled a suit ofjactitation of marriage in Doctor's Commons, but a decree hail been given against hint. She had uni formly lived with his Lordship as his wife, having cer tainly undergone a ceremony of marriage, being in troduced by Lord Hawke as Isis wife into society, and alce confided with the rare of his children by n former marriage. If this snit were maintained, this lady, who had now unfortnnately been separated from Lon! Hawke, would berendered liable to a vast number of debts. His Lordship, in this very case, had begged of her to take the bonnet, to which she objected as being too dear; he had also had seals engraved fur her, with her name and coronet as Lady Hawke, and cards made and engraved accordingly. When Lord Ilawke went abroad, he had her name inserted as his lady in the passport. If, therefore, she was even not his lady, he had imposed upon her, and ought not to visit her with the cast of the expensive presews which he pressed upon her ae t wiptance. Ne would prove that the lady had never brie in Mr. 11w:by's house, but that then:der was, strictly speaking., Lord Hawke's. . . The Rev. Dr. Coglan was called to prove the house in Manchester,sttare to have been the residekte of Lord Hawke, and the lady to 'have ireen there as his wife. The Res. Ilentleman begged permission to ex plain how he happened to see this lady. and expose himself to the situation of being called here as a wit ness. The CHIEF JrATICR said, I►e could not see the re• levancy of such an explanation. Mr. SEARLE I T.—" lteallv no gentleman should fed abashed at being in the company of such a lad►•. have seen her, and she is K very accomplished and well educated woman, and conceives herself to be the wife of Lord Hawke. The Rev. Dr. Coglan's examination was mutated. He spoke as follows Having met Lord Hawke at a public dinner, he invited me to his house in Man chester-square. 1 knew his father well, and 1 was in vited to dinner. 1 beg to say, that I should he the last person whom his Lordship would cononflt, or make a confident in a lousiness of this kind." The witness was stopped by the Court, and desired to confine him self to answering the questions. He then, in answer to que , tions from Mr. Denman, said, that on the day he dined in Manchester-square, he saw the lady at table; but was not formally intro duced to her as Lady Hawke ; she was certainly called such by the servants; but not by Lord Ilawke, who merely called her " Augusta." The servants and witness certainly addressed her as " My Lady." Frances Appleyarcl said, she had lived as lady's maid to Lady Hawke, who lived in 1814 and 1,15 in Manchester-square. Lord Hawke always called her his wife, aid his children by his fernier wife railed her •' mamma,"--and whenever the sent them with any message, he said, " go and tell your noansma so and so." 'I he witness was 04.11 shewn a number of trinkets, which she declared Lord Hawke had sant in to her Ladyship, many of them weer ordered by his Lordship to be engraved, .1 Lady Hawke." She al.° p ored that Lord Ha►rke had ordered this particular bonnet for her Ladyship, who protested again‘t the expense. Jane Chamber!acne produced an order book, in which entries were made of articles for Lady Hawke. by order of his Lordship. Mr. DRNMAN submitted, that this general statement had no reference to the particular debt. Chief Justice Aano•rr said he thought the evidence very material; for herr was a Lady representing her self as Lady Hawke in the presence and with the knowledge of Lord Hawke, and as such at the time obtaining credit from tradesmen. Mr. Dn'tMAN said the plaintiffs had no knowledge of that. Mr. SCARIATT contended that they had, for Lord Hawke was present when tl.e order was given. The plaintiffs were then non-snited. This case lasted until a quarter before four o'clock, and excited considerable interest. 11111 ZING V. VIC ALII/OreS CANAL (omrsxy. This was all indictment for a nuisance.
