I dr, Her Majesty and the Princesses were at the Races this day, when Her Majesty observed, that as a plate was given by His Majesty, the Prince of Wales, and the Duke of York, she would also give a 501. plate, to be tun for on Fria ty, by the beaten horses. The Race•ground this day was well attended, but the ladies were not sn numerous at yesterday. The day being very cold, many of the fair sea had pro vided themselves with scarlet mantles. The stair. case of the Royal box wit lined with gre.,n baize, and the Royal marquees were well secured against the impetuosity of the wind. The first Royal car riage that came nn the ground, at half past twelve, was that of his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, in which was the Marchioness Cornwallis, who, an the arrival of tier Majesty and the Princesses, came to the bottom 4 the staircase to re:eive them. The Royal Dukes--Yoi k, Kent, Cumberland. Cambridge. and Sussex, were also waiting to re ceive Her Majesty. His Rnyal Highness the Duke of Cumberland condulted his Royal Mother, 'he Prin cesses, and the Marchioress Cornwallis, up stairs. The Sweepstakes of 15 guineas was a very inter esting race ; her Roy;.l Highness Princess Elizabeth took great intents when the horses passed, and bets were depending in the Royal Stand %won that race, which was won by half a neck. Atter this race, the Royal Family went round the course in their car riages, and were sainted by all present, whisk they rerurned with their usual condescension. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales was not present, having left Windsor in the morning for London. The betting stand was uncommonly full ; the open carriages, gigs, and phaetons, were not so numerous as the preceding day. Amongst the elegant display of carriages, with their own sets of horses, (the principal part of the company having post horses). were the Marchiones. Tho rn() ,d, Sir William Clayton. with bur bays, and Mr. Abm.Goldsmid, in a sociable, drawn by tour horses, with two co t•riders, and two set vants behind.

ATTOCNCT•OENIIAL V BAILEY and (mum This was an information on the relation of a. Mr. Harvey and Mr. Mathews, Churchwardens, and other Pirishionews of the parish and town of March, inCheshire, who complained against the De. fer.dant for his neglect and misappropriation of a very considerable property, given in the year 1601, for the support of four distinct charities, one of which was an establishment for the education of 24 poor boys in Latin and English, the stipend for the Schoolmaster,who was to be the Curate of the pat ish, from time to time, being 201. per annum roily ; several estates were given for the uses of those cha rities, on which a considerable advance in value had taken place. The Defendant, as one of the trus tees to those chatitiet, was charged to be the re .ceiver of the rears (he being an Attorney at Law), and with retaining in his hands divers sums of the charity ptopetty, and in particular a sum, admitted by himself in his affidavit, of 914-1. exclusive if con siderable other sums in rents up to Lady-day last, paid to him, and wholly unappropriated, while the objets of the charity, being many of the poor of the place. were starving. The grounds for keeping such monies in the Defendant's hands were to de fray the txpeded expenses of the suit instituted in this cause. It appeared that the present School master was a Blacksmith, and therefore wholly unable to teach Lain. It was prayed of the Court to order the Defendant to pay the sum expressly admitted by him, being the 3141 into Court ; and that he may be. enjoined to apply the other monies to the use of the charities, until ferther order, or the hearing of this cause ; and lastly, that some scheme might he :uggested, for appointing a groper Master to the School, in the mean lime. It was argued for the Defendant, that he had made no advantage whatever of the detention of the motley, but apprehended great expense in the suit, it partaking of a parish quarrel ; and that he had no interest in refusing the payment of rent offered to him by some tenants, nor in making pay. meta a year after the bills were delivered to him, and getting the' recei,ats antedated, as he stood charged with, %Age he had money in his hands to pay immediately. It was also staved for the De fendant, that the Corate had refuied to teach for 201. a year, on which account the present schoolmaster was employed ; that he had been A schoolmaster in other places bef , ,re, is to English and arithmic ; and tint he only superintended the business of his brother, a blacksmith, in the town, lately deceased, to whom he was cz •cutor ; and that therefore he was not disqualified from teaching, by his carrying on the business of a blacksmith, any mare than an eminent surgical son of Gain, whom one of the Counsel knew formerly at Oxford, who carried on the business of an eminent bookseller in the Strand, in Lontho., his brother having died, to whom that surgeon was executor, and yet none of the grandees objected to his medical or surgical visits at Oxford, on the ground of his being a bookseller in the Strand. It was likewise stated. that as the poor parents of the children, iii this ease, were not likely to wish s Latin education for their children, and the stipend was so smar. for the schoolmaster, no injury was done, nor any violation of the trusts of the charities ; it was suggested to the Court, on the behalf of the school, that as the funds were cmsider able, and the lands now let at half their value, the Curt might augment the salary. His J.-T.(101:p ordered the 3141. to be lodged in Co art, and the cause to be expedited ; but gave no i,rdera about the selionlmas.:r. until the iiranng. COURT OF KING'S ILLNCII, Wasrsatti,Tart, Jong 11, CRIMINAL INFORNIATION. The ATTORKSY-GlNelat tor leave to file a criminal information against the Rev Charles Prescott, Clerk, one c.t the Justices of the Peace for the county of Chester, for his miscondua in his oifige of Niugistratt. This application era; made on behalf of Mr John Lhcas, an attorney of Chester, and the affidavit stated, that several journeymen Cotton Manufadu rers, residing in that town, having a complaint against their master, minding the payment of wages, applied at the Magistrate's office for sum monses, which were issued accordingly, Ly order of Mr. Prescott. Upon the day on whi..h these sum monses were returnable, the proper parties attended at the (Ace of Mr. Lloyd, attorney, the Magistrate's Clerk, where Mr. Prescott tratitafted all his magiste rial business The Complainants, being ignorant and illiterate perions, had employed Mr. 'Yeas as their attorney to state their ca,e, and he was about to mooted in it, when Mr. Prescott said, "he would di nothing while Dices was pretest." Three times he was applied to to proceed in the business, and persisted in refusing to do any thing while Dicas was present: The affidavit went en to state, that Mr. Prescott's intention was to destroy Mr. Dicas, by holding him up as a person with whohs he would not do business ; and the Court were requested ro recolleet, that Lloyd was Clerk to Mr. Prescott, and he wanted to throw all the business into his hands, and thereby deprive Dicas of it. Lord fit cgs soliouou said, that applications like this, against Magistrates, were not to be entertained upon slight rounds. There was nothing in the afii davit to shew that the Magistrate wanted to ruin or injure this gentleman, who some days agn tried en allion for assault in this Court, against Mr. Lloyd, (for which see our paper of Tuesday last), that might as well have been spared. This was not a case in which an attorney must necessarily be employed for, although the journeymen might have been ignorant persons, there was no doubt but that they could state their claims against their master very well. Neither did it appear that the Magistrate was acloated by any improper motive.—Rule refused. Thig JUNG v. aie DEIT/011D 'IMAM pataldli• SIONIRS. Mr. Sarjearsr SHEPHERD chewed cause against a Rule obtained by the Avroascv-Gaiiiiitai., for a Mandamus. diretticg the Commissioners to summon a Jury, and assess compensation to Mrs. Mary I::tcalf. In this case the Defendants were constituted, by Al of Parbament o to allow compensation t 3 certain persons interes,ted in the lands, Ste. adjoining that part of the :Over Rasensport, which divides Green wich from Deptford, and whereon a bridge has lately been eirfl;d. /or atm% mil years past 4u) , bag etisted, called the Sunday Ferry, and the Corn pary of Watermrn had rented a certain part of the land at either side; to land their passengers. The Complainant, Mrs. Mary Metcalf, sear the proprie tor of the lasi on • the-Greenwich side. In con sequence of building the bridge, the ferry was • done away, and the watermen had rid longer ova •sion to use the land le to mem by Mrs. Metcalf. who now sought compensation for the loss of the ferry tolls, Ste. After very learrrd arguments against the Matra damsel. by Serjeants !antrum), Bast., and BAT I,LY, and Mr. Gas Row, and in support of the Rafe, by the A vroamtv-Gern R A L, and Serjeants WI and Vaunts/or, the Court were unanimoudy at opinion, that Mrs. Metcalf was not entitled to make any claim whatever for ferry tolls, her interest only extending to the land wHch had been pre viou.ly occupied by the ferrymen.

CHIIIIILES. 434 k. ; 11 / 1 . , • The Defendant in this ease was brought op for , judgment, for publi s hing a lib e l aga i nst t h e E ar l o f ...„ Moira (as stated in a former Paper). He had std- k 1 .. feted judgment by default. • - .1 The ATTOINIT•GRNRCAL, for the prosecuting, said, that there was no doubt but that this was a gross, scandalous, and unfoanded libel against the Noble Fr(isecutor, who had no personaL animosity whatever to the Defendant, but, from the nature of the libel, be felt himself imperiously called upon to enter this prosseurion ; however, since shat time, Mr. Charlirs had made every reparation in his power, and it was found that the calumny did not originate with him ; it was, therefore, the Earl of Moira's intention n•it to prosecute the case any fur ther ; and, with the permission of the Conrt, he wished Mr. Charles should be discharged epon his own recognizance. Mr. Goa ROW, on the same side, said, in justice to Mr. Charles, that from the moment the matter came to light, he did every thing in his power to suppress the further publication. and had ever since prcessed the moat sincere contrition. The Court then cliieled him to he discharged, upon his own recognizance in 10(.1 to appear when called upon by their Lordships. ENS KING E. ELIZASETM POWELL. The Defendant in this ease %/al brought up to plead to an inclidment far vending and publishing an obscene and indecent libel I to which she, with the most apparent contrition, pleaded guilty. Mr. KAM said, that this prosecution had been instimcd by the Society for the Suppression of Vice, but, in consideration of the sincere contrition this woman had sheen since her confinement. and having a large fam'ty of children, the Society, with the permission of the Cows, wi.hed her to be dis. charged. upon entering into security to appear iE called upon hereafter. She then entered into the usual recognizance, along with two sureties. Lord Ettemenaouois obseived, that this was one of the most obscene and iniquit ius libels he had ever met with, sot only tending to destroy the mo rals of the rising generation, but of society itself. He co lauded with ajmonishing the Defendant to be no her guard in futile:. The Defendant was a very decent looking woman, dressed in black. and a veil, which concealed her face. During the whole time she remained in Court, she seemed deeply affected by her situation. CUC[tr OF EXCHEQUER.

It appeared, that in a year and an half after these orders, Mr. Dick resigned the office, without disobeying emu orders, or touching the premiums for his own use.
