This was ae action to recover :rem the defendant the sum of 3151. alleged to have been lost in consequence of the defendant having neglected pis professional duty. The circumstances of the case are as follow :—The % plaintiff had lent 1031. to a Mr. Fresidielek who resides in Noes% ich. Some time after Mr. Presidleld came to Iri n, and requested the lens of a further suns of 21W. offering as severity for the whole I.ls share of r legacy of 40001. left Wm it) Lin uncle, hut whirls he was not to receive till he ettaiesesi the age of 23, the life-Interest he. ing reserved to annther of the family. Mr. freshliehl was at the time twenty-two, and the person enjoying the life-interest died shortly after. The plaintiff went to the , defendant, who was an attorney, to have an assignment of the legacy made to Idol, which teas accordingly done. A suit was instituted in Chancery, in which this security , was declared invalid, there being r dense in the will ren dering any teem) is hich should be asssigned over nal! and, void, and that it should go to the residuary lega tees, and therefore the plaintiff hail no longer any claim on Freslifield. Ile now brought his action to recover it from the defendant, who is the. executrix of Mr. 'fucker,. deceased, alleging that he had lost the money in conse quence of Mr. Tucker's not having taken care to rim mine the will In Doctors' Commons, before he wade the . assignment. A housekeeper of the brother of the plaintiff proved, that she went with the plaintiff to Mr. Tucker's chambers, Is Beitiett's-bulidinvs, and that she heard Wilson tell him that he was about tending. Fresimileld money on the security of a will audio examine it at Doctors' Commons. Tlie Clerk of Mr. Tucker proved, that the plaintiff bropght an extract from the will along with bun, and wished the deed of assignment to he made out imme diately, without any reference to Darters' Commons. The Cuter .1 CSTICE said he was of opinion, that an attorney was bound by law to examine the will, and not take any extract, as sufficient proof of ihe validity of the security unless it could be shown ihat something occur red between the attorney and the person who employed him to render it unnecessary : but it would be :or the Jury to decide front - the evidence, whether any thing oc a-14rd in the present case to preveut dlr. Tucker from taking proper care to examine the will; if not, they would End a verdict for the plaintiff only for2lo/., as the the other lOW, load been previously advanced seed would have et all events been lost. Verdict—Damages 210/. •, costs 40s. Mr. Scants-rt. and Mr. Josses were Counsel for the plaintiff; and Mr. PuLhast for the defendant. SIMPSON V. PDOPON AND This was an action by the endorse of a bill of ex change for 63/. accepted by the :emale defendant previ ous to her marriage with her present hasband. After the prima _facie case of the plaintiff was esta blished by the usual proofs, Mr. Falkner, the drawer of the bill, was called on the part of the defendant. He admitted that the bill was given to him by Mrs. Pogson., then Miss Standish, while she was in ;Le prison of the Marshalsca, previous to her taking the benefit of the act for the relief of insolvent debtors, under which she was subsequently discharged. It was given in substi tution for another bill, which was overdue, and which she had accepted for goods supplied to her by the wit ness in the course of his trade. Ile directed the bill not to her as in prison, but to her former residence. The first time he went to her, he was accompanied by his at torney, but he went twice before the hill was accepted. Ile never threateged to oppose her discharge, if she did not give the acceptance. Os ceass-examination, the witness explained that he went to Miss• Standish in consequence of a letter from her. She said he should not he a loser oy her upon the girceruitassees from which the debt arose; but she wished 'to aslc her mother before she gave the bill. Ile indorsed the bill to the plaintiff, Mr. Simpson, in part of payment ofa debt of 1501. and never told him that the direction of the bill was a falsehood, and that the acceptor was in prison. Here the LORD Cats, Justice intimated that lie hot a great ffillieuity in receiving this defence, as the pre sent plaintiff appeared to be an innocent bolder tot Had the bill remained in Pallmer's hands, be would have felt no doubt that there would be a good answer to an action. Mr. Scancarr submitted that r till of exchange given to a creditor by P party in prison, and contemplating a ditelm urge, was ipsofircro void eyed id innocent bands.— If thi. were not Po—if party, to avoid the persecution of a partirmilar creditor, could hind himself by an instru ment of this kind, the beneficial intent of the statute would be defeated; because time insolvent would thus charge his future effects with e. burden which would de prive others of their remedy. Such a bill was like a bill infected wit:i usury or gaming, and void in its creation. Mr. M ARITA? was about to reply, when The Lotto Unite JUSTICE saidohat Ise should notdeeide the point now, as P deeotiable security was in question, but should direct time - Jury to find a verdict :or the plaintiff, subject to the cmi Ilion of the Court. It was then agreed, as the validity of the discharge might conic in question, to submit evidence on two points to the Jury—first, whether P. previous iischarge by the detaining creditor named Clagg was dot intended to de prive Miss Standish of the means of obtaining tier final discharge; and whether being so released from prison, she was not collusively arrested by e person named synch, so as to place her again in custody, that she might take the benefit of the statute. The Juicy found the affirmative of both these questions and r verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 631. subject to the opinion of the Court on a special case. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, 0cT.30. ROSINSON, AATIONZR OP HAWLEY, A BANKRUPT, V. GRAT. Mr. iVt LDS opened the pleadings, after whirli Mr. Sergeant-Puha. stated the case to time Jitry. This was an action to worm , the sons of •!001. which the de fendant had received Irons time bankrupt to the prej . osiice of Lis estate, there being no accotrot of the money :is his books. The defence relied on was, that the whole was a boss fide transaction, that the ',money read ;seen lent to the b omkrupt about fifteen months before ids bankruotey, and at the time of the loan time oankrnpt engaged .o re pay it at the end of the year. The repayment had been made without any memorandant of the veer baying been entered 111 the bankrupt's hook, and this naturally exciting the suspicion of the creditors, they bad caused the defendaht Is be examined before the Com miesioners, when she so grossly prevaricated that they out a warrant for her commitment to So . ..gate.— Pi cilly, however, she gave inch a.m weeonnt that the cre ditors fit very little doubt that the ...wry had been fraudulently erotical by the defendant minder the ame of repayment of a loan, en order to secure ;t :or the de fendant after he had obtained his certilicste. The only rawer% in which this lean was umentimeteml, was ill the actmedmile given in by tholey when about to t a k e th e , ie • petit of time Insolvent Act ; and in a little memorandurn hook which he had met given up to bis creditors under the commission, lint is hick had o..en produced to 'uppert this rase fur the defendant when it was previous!) tried in this Court. Toe examination of the defendant tinder Flawiey's re•n• tni•'iou was te.1.1. in wide,' she made e variety of stive• m••tts in order to 21 eroutrit for the possesvion of such auto of money without it tiring mentioned iu her fa t hree will. Mr. Mourhett, a broker, proved that he had sohd out property for Mr. Uray, but never I.lr her daughter, and THE.S be was sot aware Gray, her faller, pOssessed any more stock than that mentioned in the 1011, and whie'e the ness had been emplopel-ses-sell out for.3lrs. Gray. Mr. Serjeant Yammer+, for the defendant, laid he dad never felt more anxiety than he did on this extraordinary ease. He hogged the Jury to remember that first prin ciple of English law, that when a party comes into Court to Haim a sum of money. he shonld produce each satisfactory evidence that he should.hardly leave a loop hole on which to hang a doubt. It had been said that the young woman, the defendant had given such as as betnre the Commi,sioners, that not the slightest credit could he given to it. If this t:ero true, then he must say, the plaintiff bad no case, and i's. completely out of Court ; for, ii every thing she ..aid was false, there was no proof that the money had passed between her and Hanley. The question to be tried, was rot by what means she acquired this money; but whether she really had possessed it, sod had lent it to the bankrupt? It had b..en attempted to be shewn, that the defendant's father had not the money. It was clear, however. that. if this leansactidn bad been a fraud, the defendant would not have readily consented to place the money in the hands of a third person, in order to abide the event of the suit. The Learned Serjeant concluded by observing that the defendant would entitle herself to a verdict by producing persons whose testimony could not he Im peached, and who 'would prove that Mr. Gray bad pos sessed considerable property, and that he always ex pressed his intention of leaving his property to his daughter. Jane Hawley, the wife of the bankrupt, proved that she bad known the defendant's father many years, and the defendant since she was &child. In lta, witness's husband was pressed for money, in consequence of hav ing been obliged to pay a large sum of money tea bank rupt's estate. Witness asked the defendant to lend her 4001., and defendant said she would cousider of it. In a few days she called at witness's house, and said she would lend Hawley the money if nothing was said about it. She lent the money, and in June, 1820, the Money was repaid, together with 51. as an aknowledgtnent for the defendant's kindness. Witness counted the money when it was lent, and is sure the sum was 4001. No memorandum passed between the parties when the mo ney was lent; witness repaid It in her husband's pre sence. Cross-examined.—Her husband was an uncertikated bankrnpt. Witness had never represented herself to plaintiff's attorney as Mrs. Gray. Witness asked fur a receipt upon repaying the money, and die defendant gave it. Ite-examined.—She bad never represented herself as Mrs. Gray, but had a receipt in her pocket given by the plaintiff's attorney for some business he bail transacted for her husband. Witness produced the receipt, which was to the name of Mrs. Hawley. George Hawley, the bankrupt, was then examined, and supported by his evidence the testimony alit; wife. On his cross-examination he said, be hid not given up the private memorandum book in which this payment was entered, because his attorney told him it was need less: be did not keop an account at a banker's. John Hams, brother to the defendant's father, said, Gray told him, about seven weeks before his death, that he should leave his wife and daughter near 4001. Other evidence was given as to Gray's property. IVitnesses were also called to prove that Gray had said he would give his daughter a few hundredi unknown to hie rela , tves. The case for the defendant baring closed, Mr. TEMPLOt, the plaintiff's attorney, was called to contradict Mrs. Hawley, as to her haring reps iented herself as Mrs. Gray. tbe witness stated the receipt bad been altered, for he lad originally written Gray; believing Mrs. Hawley to be Mrs. Gray, Hrs. H. baring represented herself as that lady.

Outkonat.t..—Mr. Robert Pollock. a gentleman of very respectable appearance and address, residing at No. 16, 'brook, describing himself a. a general commis lion agent, and occasionally werchousingtoods for hire, appeared yesterday before the Sitting Magistrate, lit. Alderman J. J. SMITH, upon a summons against him on the behalf of dews. John Broadmeod end Sons, pianoforte-makers, No. 33, Civet Pnitedey-street, for whom Mr. HOLLAND, the counsel, end Me. Ogle, soli• citor, attended. The nature of the complaint against Mr. Pollock may be gathered from the following history of the transac tions, detailed in evidence:— On the 6th of October, a gentleman, apparently a fo reigner, came to Messrs. liroadwooirs aarebonse to look at some pianofortes. Ile enquired for Mr. Broadwood, whom he said he bad met at Venice, hut that gentleman was from home. lie ticketed two extensive square piano fortes, which he desired ;Meld be posited to go abroad. He gave his name the Chevalier Itiva6noli, arid, as he wished a credit of three moutbe, refetred for his teepee. Lability to at . Losn end Co. .t:o. :1, Broad-street Buildings, and No. 26, City-road. Impury was made accordingly, awl a very high character received of the Chevalier's worth and responsibility. The pianofortes were, in conseqnence, packed ap in separate rases, mark ed W. IL, No. I, and No. 2, proper for shipping, and delivered according to order at the tilobe Warehouses, nearly opposite the Costom-hionse, 'Thames street. This was on the 6tii of October. Shout; after Mews. Broad wood learnt that the parties to t. hum they hal , been re ferred, were not of the respectable character they as sinned, and, upon farther iugriry, discovered that their pianofortes, instead of being skipped. had been removed two days after their delivery at the Glob's Warehoines, to the warehouse of Mr. Pollock. Mr. entree, a clerk in the house of Merino: Ii •coadwood, waited oa Mr. Pole lock, as did also Mr. Ogle, au,l lea him in possession of the facts; but they were not able to procare Irmo him any information as to the person who h. I warehoused the packages with him : all .liey could team irons him wag,tliat he knew nothing of, and lied no concern with, t h e Ch eva li er Mystified'''. Under these circumstances. e siimmoin was obtained at tliis office, and served on Mr. Pollock on Tuesday, and it Haw came out tha, on that day, and not till then, Mr. Pollock had re-delivered die property. In these fact., Mr. Pollock agreed. Ile knew nothing lie said, of the Chevalier. l'lw person who warehoused the property with WM, was introduced to lima h 3 a gen tlest) in with whom he had done some business. lle felt it is duty, under the circimistances, to deliver the goods to the person front whams he had received them, and he bad mitten nu order :or sitch delivery. 11e had not refused to tell the name of the person who ware lionsed them with him, bet had Doug ht it right to tle• cline so doing until lie had consulted that person, and lie had not had time to make die inceary. After much hesitation, and being frequently p both by the Alderman and Mr. Ogle, be at length stated the name of Rossini, No. 6, Castle-street, lluaedslit, h, as the person who had warehoused the goods, and pro- duced an order signed Rossini, and stated auber the Bth, for the delivery of the goo ds to die hearer. This order lie said was written in his colleting-Mme oa the day the plods were brought to his warehouse, and his directions were to deliver them upon the production of 'Sr4A N. that order.--ffe knew nothing of linsaini, not even his Christian name, and had never dote business with him I.efore. lie declined at .'trot .o say who had :ntroduce l l itdssla tb him, bur At length said, it was a ge . titletnan of the came of Drown who, he believed, lived at Somers' Toon. The only dem iption he could give of him .as, that Le was a dialer, Ind I•c did not know his Christian name, nor the street he lived in, thongh he had duce business with him, but he thought he had &bent both on his hooka. Mr. Llint.sso said, that after he had been hilly in formed that Mess's. Broadwoods had :seen swindled out of the property, he I. honk! have lent his aid for the re covery of it ; and under such circomstances be ras neither legally nor morally bound to 'Aver it to the order Of Rossini, oho, for ought he knell-, might be the pretended Chevalier himself. Mr. OGLE observed, that if the information Mr. Pol lock I•ad now given, had been given yesterday, the pro perty might probably have been recovered. Mr. Aldermaii Saar: thought that ninety-nine tradesmen out of s hundred would have acted under the 'circumstances very differently from Mr. Pollock, and would not have delivered the property after they knew it had been obtained by swindling. Tradesmen shoold assist each other to guard against soch practises as these. Messrs. Broadwood'a indemnity would bare been a sulhcient protection to Mr. Pollock against the] consequences of detaining the property. The business was not of a nature in is Weis be, as a Magistrate, could make any order, and the gammons was of course discharged. Rowe . Yesterday, Mr. James Rom, a wealthy tailor. living in tortliomberland-street,Strand, was brought before the sitting Magistrate Mr.M►Nanchh, charged with committing an assanit upon Mary Stringer, a good-looking woman, apparently about 30 years of age: Mr. Evans appeared to have 'passed three score. Mrs. Stringer deposed that about eight years ago ate I was a servant iu a family in Devonshire-place. and lur ing accidentally met with Mr. Evans, he introdnced himself to tier as a Mr. Smith, of Charing-cross; and after an acquaintance of some duration, she was so far thrown of her guard as to start' a closer intimacy than is recognised by the law of the land, and the conseqnence was, that in a very short time she was in sneh a sitna. tion as io render the concealment of her shame imps sible • and she was compelled to leave her situation. In this dilemma, the defendant having all at once ceased to I visit her, she went to inipire for Mr. Smith, No.—, Charing-cross, hot no such person was to be round I there, and all her inquiries after him were fruitless. In doe course of time, she bronglot an infant into the world, which lived seven months; daring which time, and for the expense of her eceoachement, she spent very considerable sown of money. When tier child died, she was a long time before she could procure employ ment, and at last she was obliged to accept of a situa tion in a family going to the West Indies, the climate of which had nearly been the 'teeth of her. She reward some time ag o in a very ill state of health. She load never bees ale to learn Any tidings of the defendant until Monday last, when she met him in the street, near Temple Bar. She followed and watched nim into a brash-maker's shop is the city, and having waited about the door until he came out, she entered the shop and in quired his name and place of abode. This information she readily obtained, and conceiving, notwithstanding the distance of time, that she bad still a claim °pea the defendant fur the expenses she tied incurred on his 're count, abe oo Tuesday ventured ro pay him a visit at his hens. is Northumberland-street. He was pureedy astonished, aid we less angry, at the sight of her t' mad whets she ventured to make knows the objest she had in paying her respects to him tie called her sundry ' hard names, and first attack her tv:ice, mid thee leveed her fortiltly writ of his house. This was the 'moult she had to complain of. Mr. thirouirs.r. embarked that this aerated a creel m bar' foe the obliging disposition which Miss Stringer 4niii shows towards Mr. Evans, said the lamer s/Illutd Mildest bow oseseated to &fess the boas fide expenses of his amour. its would be glad, however, to hear whet Mr. Evans bad so say. Mr. Ent, began hy assuring the Magistrate that he should have no objection to defray the expenses of this Whir of his, had lie not felt convinced that he was not fairly entitled to the honour which the com plainant had bestowed upon Win. lie was no more the father oldie child than his Worship, and, if time were allowed him, he bad DO doubt he should be able to find the real papa. file. DIINSHULL.-1 suppose yon do not mean to deny the intimacy ? Mr. Evans said, he could not deny that, bat he was sure he was not the father of the child. Magistrate.—Did you ever go by the name of Smith: Mr. Evans said he never went by the name of Smith I in the true meaning of the term. The Magistrate asked him it' lie had told the com plainant that he was. Ur. Smith, of Charing-cross? Mr. Evans, after some hesitation, replied, `• I really cannot say." Ile went on to state that he had not com mitted any assault upon the complainant. She came to his house, and told the whole story of their former ac quaintance in a loud tune of voice in the passage, so that some ladies who were a!' stairs could nut fail to bear, to the great scandal of his reputation. finding he could not get rid of her otherwise, tic put her gently out of the house. MT.MITITICULL strongly advisrd Mr. Evans to com promise the matter Loy plying the expenses which she claimed. Mr. Evans said he would have no objection to that, Valle would unsay the assault, for he bad committed none. bliss Striver persisted that he struck ber twice iu the neck, and called a brewer's clerk who was passing at the time, arid who corroborated her statewent. _ Mr. twain, upon this, consented to retire to another part of the oll'►ce with the complainant, and we saw him fur some time casting up senor, items which lie had com mitted to paper trum the mouth of Miss Stringer. :►t length it was announced that the matter was satisfac torily adjusted, and Mr. Evans was discharged. UNION-HALL—Monday, information was given to the Magistrates at this office, by several respectable inha bitants of the Old Kent-road, that a large floorclutlo manufactory, in Manning's-plate, in that neighbour hood, was fitted up as a Theatre, and opened nightly by some strullong players. The Migistrate (Mr. &hes) issued a warrant under the new Police Art, for the arrest of the players and all persons who might be there assembled, as rogues and vagabonds. Oa Tuesday night Robert Hall, the chief officer, with twelve of his men, proceeded to execute the warrant ; and, in order to prevent any of the persons within mating their escape, sentinels were place./ round the Theatre. Two officers., (till and South, were then sent in disguise into the Theatre, and were admitted by tickets, which they previontdy obtained gratis, but upon en understanding before the performative cursitnowell each person teas to contribute to the plate, whirl' was passed round autungst the audience to receive the i•ub• scriptions.
