• f,' .. LAW INTELLIGEFCE. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Maacn 3. , CODES V. SOCKED. TMs was an action by a merchant of the city, against the Defendant, a Swedish Physician, to re cover 301. as the value of a diamond star, entrest— ed to the Defendant's care. It appeared that the Plaintiff's daughter having gone to the Opera—house on the night of the cele. bration of the Jubilee, wearing a hat in which ' there was a• diamond star, and feeling herself in. commoded with the weight of it, in the course of the dancing, gave it to her partner, requesting he would find a place where it might be safely (hypo. sited. The Lady's partner seeing the Defendant, whom he knew to he a gentleman of respectability, in a box, requested of him to take charge of Miss Cuheis's hat, which the Defendant undertook to do ; when the hat came to be reclaimed, however, the diamond star was gone. To recover a com. pensation for this loss, the priient action was brought. Fur the Defendant, it was contended, that be could not be liable, the charge he took of the hat and star being purely gratuitous. It appeared that several persons had jumped over the box, by seine of whom the star might have been taken' away. ` Sir J. MANSFIELD laid it down that the Defend. ant, not being to receive any remuneration for taking charge - of the hat and star in question, was mot subject to that degree• of responsibility which attached to a carrier, or other person -en. trusted with the care of property. lla►ing, how. ever, undertaken the safe custody of the articles in question, he was bound to bestow the same care in protecting them as a -man might naturally be supposed to bestow in protecting his own proper. ty. With these observations, he left the case to the Jury. • • Verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages 101. •WYLIS V. JACOB. This was an action against the Captain of a vessel, to recover damages arising from the impro. per stowage of a quantity of tallow entrusted to his care. It appeared that the tallow was placed at the banal°, a quantity of rice alosire, without sA Skins being placed befecen.thent, and ; shove the rice, a great• weight of sugar, by the heat and•l pre sattre arising froth which, the tat-ow was completely melted, that, in pumping the ship, they pumped up tallow. Verdict for the Plaintiff. • sit nun COURT, lifaant 3. • CRIM. CON. sLRRTMAit e. Vora" This was a Writ of Inquiry directed to tTe sbe. tiff of Middlesex, to assess the damages in ausic. tiun brought by the Plaintif f against the Defoe" ant, for crivnival conversation witlakkorifo, in which the latter had 'offered jvdgment to by default. The damages were laid at Ira Ittpu. • sand pounds. Mr. GuttN tor, for the Plaintiff, stated, thatbis client Mr. - Berryman_ , _ was an Altos:Rey, yid that the Defendant, Mr. Hull, was the proprietor the Horse Repository, in, Moorklds. MrAler. ryman married in the year 1797, and had five children, three of whom are now living. He for merly resided at Islington, and, subsequently, Castle-street, Falcon-square, and Beech-street, Finsbury-square. Havieg become embarranied ;' his circumstances, he went into Essex, with the intention of establishing himself in his professional capacity at Braintree. This took place in the summer of 1806. When Mr. Berryman returned to town in October, he found that his wife had removed from the apartments where he left her, in Beech-street (he had previously sent the chit. dren into the country), and it was not until the spring of 1809 that be had been able to trace her, 'rhea he found her and Mr. Hull living together wader the name of Mr. and Mrs. Blake. Ho call ed evidence twprove this statement. Mr. ADOLPRUS, in a most powerful and elo quent appeal to the Jury, contended, that ' smallest damages they could give would be sun cient to cover the injury of which the - Plains complained. Lie had, iii fact, contributed own dishonour. He abandoned his wife ant. withdrew into the country, leaving her to support herself as she•could. Under , all the circumstances of the case, the Plaintiff, so far from beingen. titled to 5,0001. was barfly entitled to five far , things.— Verdict 501. It h impossible for Britons, natives - of the veered land of liberty, to contemplate, without • • ' l *. ''`t the hikhest drgree of sympathy, a gallant people \,, struggling to preserve their independence. It can.. . riot, therefore, appear surprising, that the br and portraits of Iloreee, the celehrated Chief t. • ttie Tyrolese, anti the two deputies from these pt. lent Mountaineers, inserted 'in tho Repository .drtr, Sic. should have excited such extraordinary interest.

By the word " at that time," do you mean at that morne et ' only, or do you mean to speak prospectively f or t i le remain der of 'Hee campaign, or fur a ant period ? —ln t h e s i n , i took of the Island. and of the probable force of the enem y at that time, I really, thought that %t ape men might i t r ha .,l tke_t mrpose. You state also that considerable additional Latificati irs were necessary ; can you give the Committee ally idea of ea extent or magnitude of the fortifications which you would have thought mdispensibly necessary ?—I cannot exactivia, what the engineers might have imagined necessary in a ll p o i, of the Island ; hut it certainly was my opinion That e n ; ' consideMble fortifications would have been necessay, L A as towers in different parts of the Island, the works at Flush. iug, Veer, and Ramekins repaired,and batteries in dida reet parts of the Island on the coast. Do you think that even with the addition of the batteries it would have been possible, at ail seasons, and under all rir. cumstances, to haute prevested as enemy of greatly F4p er t w number front crossing the Slough Passage ? Not Wen the ' navy guarded the Slough Passage. Was it not your opinion that in the winter the navy could not remain in the Slough Passage, Karl. that the Isatteria of the enemy might at all times force our. smaller vessels fros t the Slough Passage? I understood from high n led aloha. ' ✓ite, that in winter the vessels could not remain without crest difficulty in the Slough Passage; it certainly would baseless irtdialeult for the Navy to have remained in the Sl ash p gratany time, had.* large force beet, brotain ag a i a , t them front the Dyke in the island of *oath Bevel Ed. Is it your opinion, that even if those preparutions h a d h eea ' made, still the iskind would have beeit e %posed to attack fries a very superior laud force ? The island, no docile, semis h e exposed; but it is to be supposed that every possible eters" being made in erecting towers, fortificatiuns, &c. Void a ' might he deemed necessary to place round the ideal, th e island would be in a tolerable state of securite, at leas to b e retained for a space of tune ; it is impossible far use to say to what period. Do you think that even with a garrison of twenty thousa n d men the Island could have been retained without those ford. cations being completed ?—t du not. At the time yqu were left in command of the Island, rote what was the situatieu of your garrison, what portion ee " them Were or were not effective ?—I really have not tie re. turns at present with me; but I believe they are utst! the ' table. • At any time subsequent to Lard Chatham's return to Etta land, did • you feel that with the garrison that you cummoded, in the state in which they were, you could rely epos oat garrison with security for the defence of the Island f —lewd . always rely upon the bravery of the troops I commanded; but they were in too sickly estate to expect that I could hate much reliance upea theta is the event of a serioug attack. From the time the d k estse first sheered itself, did hot the number of the sick increase progressively until the ora l s were received for the evacuation of Waleheren ? I 'came state after I myself left the Island, which was some watt previous to the evacuation; but from the period of Lad Cataluna's departure, the sickness amongst the troops Ira. dually increased to an alarming degree. . At any time during that period dud 'you see the slighted probability that that sickaeas would be arrested in its pot. geese I -=-ai o. Was it unt apparent tb you that that fine garrison waste*. dually wasting, with si protability, that befiwe the eial of the , sickly season there Would be scarcely a hattalioa* for active service ? I had but oue battalion that I could call effective . . and fit forasetiie service. Was it ever suggested by you or to you. whether it eight he possible to keep. duriag, 'bat season, the greater put of the gartison embarked, land* oaks. eleept on emergewies, such as were necessary for peculiar duties ? I dome recollect that It was. After you bad Inansinitted.your revert, with respect team means of defending the island. did you receive any trouusue -01110 rna the subject of that report ? My letter to the Se. &Nary of State was dated on the 17th September; I reteieed as answer on the 27th, which answer was dated en the SO. Was it comonnitated to ynu whether it ivas Om hantiso of4iuvernment or not to retaiu the island of Widcheinithe , that period P I have already arawered that mrestioo is ay foraternsieser ; I received no consimunications officially bit what are pow upon the table of the committee. Had it been the determination of towernmeat to retain as island of Walchereii, is knot your °phew that on time waste be lost in taking those measures for defence which you kad suggested ? Certainly. Ito you know wbether, at any time, the sick of the arm suffered material incouventence from the want of ' proper comforts, nod proper attendaaea ? Medic l l a = were mach wanted ; co,nrdrts were procured, as fir hibey • could be got In the island ; medicines were also prearli hi' eth Island; bark was boaglitin the island. . • Do yon know wbether, at any time at any plate, these int an actual want of medicine? I wit not preparedloollYthere was an actual want of medicine; but I m ish perfectly . to he understood, that my reason for making the applitstios for medical aid and medicines, and comforts. was to prevent ile absoltite want ;- it was not for me to snake that applieuiss . when there was none its the Island. State w hetber great inconvenience was not fell from theme of a sufficient number of hospital-ships? lucirraveiente I" - felt; for had we had hospital slaw, the ceimileacents wail have been put on board ; two arrived in the first Meese, and I believe two more .nll of which we sanplossd; sot others did arrive, in which ships troops were put etebardt -,and sent to England sick. When you speak of hurtle! ;hips. do you mean hafilag ships, or what are caned convalcseaut Alpe —tote ill ships prepared expressly for the purpose of iis Hasa react,. ing in them, or only to carry silk m l ei' house ?—t think tie Asia and 'Sultrier were sent out as hospital s ale; 1 talkie at least so it was reported to roe, that they were tittrd ap a hospital ships; others here sent out, the ,Leyden and ant others (1 op not recollect the names) to take sick maw England.
