THE GREEKS. [From the Afterion t heron, of JOAM2.I ;I:IIACTS Or INFORTR FROM nonnu AND ZANTE, VP TO 20711 linen et•s: a. The ca mpaign in Ararnaria, so far as what Ives happened this a s Can be called a eampaigt, is now Oftt. Omer Pacha. who • t unic incapenle of any et:rioter operation by his persomil guars w ith other Albanian and Epirot Chief., as well as by his ex " a d, equivocal position soli respect to the Porte, had never en goo, and at the end hardly ?MOO men, at his command. It • ther e fore to be foreseers that he would neither do any thing of 'n ce himself in Ararnania or &toll., nor reinforce the weak sty of Dervisch Pacha in Livadia and Theesaly, and that come ly the Pachalik of Joannina would be abandoned to the seek marauding parties. ievertheless, nlaurocorilato, whom his party call Governor-Ge ed of Western tire. - ce, though this title was never formally grant. p in t on the other side of the Peninsula, thought it necessary to be guard against °nice.' movements and possible attacks. Oh this view he formed a camp with about 2,500 men, at the t O of July, near Ligovitai , a convent on an eminence near to 31a eea end Lake Ouron, Teo leagues from the right bank of the an apo•amesj. This measure wan announced in vory pompous rn , t : .:he • the journals of Nlimelonghi. Decisive operations were to undertaken tram that camp. Arts, Preens. Joannina, were t eat' mccessively in a short time. Nothing of all this happened. mon niched, was sometimes summoned to surrender, from a t ra nce, but nothing was dune beyond erap•y demonstrations and pretense; letters. liango, one of the subaltern commanders njfaurocordato, plusdered and laid waste the unfortun a te ne n ees a of Radoric at the foot of Pindne, eltiedy inhabited by • 'sm. Zonga, No u, fitizzaci,Jr.c. fell upon other defercelires plus, thinking more of plunder than victory. There was not go a serious action. °peer Paths had taken his position at Caravanserai (a custom. nate on the erattneast hank of the lake of Arta). 'nit proper eniness of the enemy, therefore, wan to force this point ; but this no cot to be done by arrogant articles in the (creel: Oirrnack, sod too operations were not attempted. Omer Pacha kept his= itioeridinhelead. WY: In dee wraith Sepeember.• *neon shout the reighbouring crimp at Ligreetzi, rent a strong exile e:eel t •cowa rds Vrachori, in Inaba , which spread general consterna fAC t roan; of the inhabitants of the country were taken prisoners, g sustained great loss in ca•tle and erects. This state of things continued till the commencement of the bad r oom In October. Manioc-twilit°, harassed by dissatiefaction l ad cares of all kinds, became so seriously ill, that it was necessary net:lll,u him to Anatotico. But before he left the camp, he re peated from the officers commanding order him, some of whom od the whet of General., a written acknowledgment, by which icy bound themselves collectively, 66 rot to forsake their poet, on e ery occasion to do their duty, and to preserve subordination, on sin, in the contrary case, of being conaidered as Anti.Tatrims, ai of being treated by every body as inch." prom such a document we form some inference respecting the rent which must have prevailed among those troops. At the beginning of November, Omer Paella voluntarily left his imp at Caravanserai. and withdrew for the preient to Arta. Ile wa threatened in his rear by adversaries who did him much more ejmy than the poserlese um-intents at Ligovitei ; and it was err. &bey not fenrof a couple of thnusand of ill-art:ed Greeks that uptliim six months inactive. (I) It is strange enough that just about this time, the grandson of Al Puha la son of Veli l'achn), and his grandinother.in.law, limn so well known for many &fleeting viseissitudes of fortune, vitb some confidants cf this once-powerful family. appeared at Luise. and with the intention of going to Epirus. It tree gene. idly billeted that the object of this journey, which was permitted if not faeoured by the Pore, was to discover a part of the h idden MLIIIITS Of Ali Paella; but it is much more probable that it was hoped, by the presence of those, to gain his old adherents, and to oep a check on other factions. The Mope has been latterly again a theatre of open and san elinary discord. IA the mcnth of October the Government at Napoli di Romania was renewed. As Slembere of the Directory were appointed, Con. turiotti as President, P. Batasei (2) as Vice President ; Fotifa ipiliotacelti and Collet •i; President of the Senate, Panusso Nauru, rd Vice-President, Vtestcno Teodorits. Maurocnrilato was in. . • fur an important post, and his friends had taken great pains o place him at the head of affairs. He. however, firmly refused, stud, at length. !emotively deelared, that he would not, in sty case, nee up his place at elissolonghi (though lie has to contend there with enmities anti cabals of all kinds), or, upon any terms, go to Napoli di Romania. The way in ankh the offices were filled seems to have excited m the beginning much discontent. The public journals of el is or.ghi and Athens have indulged in sarcastic remiu•-i on the sub ject. The Greek Cevonick of the 12:h November went so far as loudly to complain, •• that, contrary to the express terms of the kw, the Executive Council consisted, for the most part, of the funnel. Members ; that this clearly proved the influence of a arty, the prepanderante of which could end only in despotism or • .•y. Ilion after it was known that while great nieseures were an. mitred in all quarters for the closer investment of Patios by sea id land, the Turks had made a tally from that fortress, had spread NW At detect/vs formany enter vonodlred - reatked seems of 0 men coatinanded 1 y Conetantine Boazaria, and nowhere nret eh any opposition. The Gaze le of If yin% (the Friend of the Law, 'Nov. 17), &journal under the immediate influence of the Govern mt, upraised itself on the subject of this event in very strone rms. This passage has been quoted on a former occasion. rho tide article was written there was a general insurrection in readia and Elie. against the Government. The Colocotronis, %kink Sisini, Zaiiiii, Londo, and other Chiefs of the anti-de an-rade party., seemed to wait only for an opportunity to coin ...dace open hostilities, and this was soon afforded them by a dis. Ste with the authorities at Ttipolieza. Meantime the Govern. rent at Napoli tent against them 2,000 men under Pam Flews. 3.) A sanguinary action ensned on the road to Trioolir-a, in which Pano Colocorenni (the same who had so long refused to give sp Napoli to the democrats) was killed, and Stale°, the second in sornmand, taken prisoner after the enemy had cut off loth his hands. Infuriated at the death of his favourite son, the elder colocotroni collected hie whole force, and marched with a corps, 1 an to exceed 6.000 men, against Trimilina. A naval officer ar. tired at Corfu, reports that he has occupied that place. (4) Only imperfect accounts of the late events at sea ha e reached Corfu. It was known that only a pert of the Egyptian fleet had seen able to enter the port of Candia ; the Turks, however, still lured a landing in the Mores; this fear, if not the internal state a the Peninsula, villains the reason why the eight Greek vessels tat had come to blockade Pura., left that station (as credible enemata state) in the middle of Ileceinber. The Florentine Gazelle of tl:c 4th gives accounts from nlieso. 16ghi. of the middle of Deeeroher, which say that public rejoicings lel taken place at Napoli di Romania, in commemoration of the Evart gee gained over the Ottoman fleet in the sea of Candis, and at transports had arrived in that port, on board of which were we Arabs, belni.ging to the regular Egyptian army. and provi. ens. none of the shirt which had hsen separated from the Tnkisli fleet sere pursued as far as Alexandria, and the Greek madron has since returned to Hydra. Cooduriotti was said to ere recoveted from his illness, and to have arrived at Napoli di Laramie with many troops from the Islands. and other parts of (tette, to support the Government, and to check the discontent vhich had been shown in wine places on accouet of the late Unions. 1) Omer Won/ is appointed Pacha of Snlonichi. If the Porte to get him out of Albania, it will be a great advantage to it. 2t Ile died soon after of an epidemic prevailing at Napoli, wbieh amid to have spread to Argos. '3) It is said the Ilydritna and Spossiots, in an address to the limns, threatened that if they dill not submit to the lawful Go tenment, they would cause the Turkish troops to land in the litres. We have not seen this proclamation. (4) Yet in spite of these fatty, ennftrmed for the most part by the elst Oreek Journals, the foart;tidirmtiel of the Nth Deeembtr fen nlta to say, " The internal disorders of the tireeha are wholly ifteal." We ere infcmiedtTingonti authority that all the clielr wes respecting the Opera-house are arranged, and that it Amended to open that theatre in a very short time with tt same performers as last season.

A meeting was held on Saturday, under the commission Str?eey, and Co. at which a dividend was o.7.•Lred of four shillings in the pound. The total amount Proved and claimed is about 800,000/. Of this sum about 4000/. is claimed by the Bank, and 80,0001. by private Persons.

Saturday was launched in the River the steam-ship Esiterpriz., built for the purpose of running between Eng land aeti We have not heard the details of the plan, but we have no doubt of its feasibility. We should think that its course should be by Madeira. St. Jago, St. Helena, the Cape, through the Mcizainbique Cliannei to Johanna, and thence to Hembay ; if for the other coast of the Feninsu!a, from Johanna to Point de Calle, Madras, and Calcutta. At all the places mentioned she might take in coals. The time consumed in the voyage might he thus stated, alloo.ving at the very low rate of eight knots an hour:— To Madeira 7 day. To St- Jago . To St. Helena - - - 11 To the Cape - - 6 To Johanna - - To Bombay - - . - 12; Total construed in Voyage - Allow for atOppagee . - "14 To Joba-ra as above . - To Point do Gallo - To 31adrai Coiniummi in voyage - - - Allow for stepimges - K dsys to Bombay Mat!-a‘ to Calcutta Stoppages bj days to Madras - - 2 7:1 days to Calcutta. , The most sepia veyagz matte .heretofo►e was by the Medusa in itiu.S. This ship went in 8t days to the Sand Heads, and returned in 84 ; but it is to be considered that she wax a frigate, unencumbered with freight of any kind, and built for the mpress purpose of fast railing. If steam-boats be established, the nasinsuna of time will thus be three weeks shot kr than the former minimum.— Trlrscipe.

Extract or a letter from Henry Canting, Esq. to John Bennett, Esq., Secretory of Lloyd's, dated lianihurgh. tn. 21, 1822. St rt.—l hart the pleasure to inclose. tor the information of the Gentlemen of Lloyd's, a translation of the sentence which has been passed in the case of Krieger and Marquardt, who have been nrnszcitted for the frauds committed in the case of the Dorothea. I'nry will be found stitEciently severe to deter others from attempt ing similar mal-practices. (Signed) HENRY CANNING. TRANALATInX.—" At the criminal esantination carried on by the Directors of Demerara, awl (tithe Admiralty, Orlricita against the merchant Edward Alexander Krieger and consorts, the Criminal Senate of the Royal Otter [And Court of West Prussia adjudges accordingly, that the merchant Edward Alexander Krieger. is condemned, on account of roc-limits committed in regard to the as. surance on goods shipped in Nnvember. 1823, by the ship Dorothea, to it pecuniary punishment of 25,4811 dollars, and in the case of his inability, to ten years' imprisonment in a fortress. Ile is also de clared to hsve forfeited the right of wearing the national cockade. 2d. That the Councillor of Commerce, Joachim Friedrick quardt, is condemned, on account of having cheated the under. writers in regard to the insurance on goods laden by the ship Dorothea, to a punishment of 7,854 dollars, for which, in thecase of inabillity, a punishment of seven years' incarceration in a fortress is to be substituted ; likewise on account of the great negligence of oinking his oath as to the quantity of goods shipped, to a punish. ment of six months' imprisonment in a fortress, besides which he is to be deposed from his office as Councillor of Commerce, and of the Admiralty, and to be punished with the loss of the national cotkade." The case of the vessel above alluded to was, the Dorothea, loaded at Dantzie, for Rotterdam and the Brazils, and insured at Lloyd's; it appeared afterwards that the cargo consisted of nothing but stones, packed up in trunks, hut insured as valuable golds. The vessel was afterwards lost, when they made their claim on the Underwriters, which we understand fortunately had not been paid. DREADFUL. SHIPWRECK. LOWESTOFT. JAW. 21. On Tuesday, the 16:h instant, about one o'clock P.M., two brigs struck upon the Newcome Sand off Lowestoft, which is about half , a mile Iran theihore, aati a.sluopisdr aloo in great distress. lhatnX Truck upon the sand called the Rome, distant about two miles,. the wind blowiag a strong gale from the southward. This was observed from the shore, and the life-boat was manned with all possible despatch, by Wm. Folkard and David Burwood (Pilots) and fifteen boatmen, under the command of Lieutenants Caner and Gartner, who g allantly volunteered their services. The ebb tide was now running strong, and with the assistance of eight hors-a the boat was towed through a tremendous surf over Pake field Flats, but, the tow-rope breaking, they were not able to fetch the impel, but were obliged, after crossing the Newsome, to let go their anchor and wait for the flood tide, so that it was half-past three, before they were able to beat to windward. Their object was now to rescue seven men who were clinging to the sloop's nun. head, she being on her beam-ends. After repeated and unsuccessful trials, they succeeded in gaining a communication. Lieutenant 'farmer (wilt that prompt alacrity which has ever marked his character) haring thrown a grappling iron to the wreck, the host was then hauled with her head under the mast-head of !the sloop. At this instant the master dropped Into the arms of Lieutenant Harmer, and, after a few minutes, one of the crew was also caught by the same person; the sea was now running so high, that the life-boat was completely under water, and at times co pa-t appeared, except about kalif the fore mast ; urine of her crew were swimming, sad others clinging to the life.ropes, or whatever else they could lay hold on. The general cry now was, " For God's sake cat the cable, we shall be all lost." Funher attempts to render assistance to the sufferers on the wreck would hue becn ineffectual, as the life-boat was totally unmanageable ; therefore the cable was cut, and the re maining live men reluctantly left to perish. The boat, by this time, rose nearer the surface ; a part of the foresail was hoisted, and she providentially wore round. They had now to return through one of the most tremendous seas ever witnessed; the head and stern of the boat were alone visible above water; the sea at the same time breaking over NT stern, half the height of the mizen-mast, ru-hing along the boat, carrying oars and every thing before it, and washing two of the men (111 r. Burwood and another) overboard, who were hauled in again by their brave companions. At length they succeeded in getting the boat off the sand into smoother seater, but had new to cross another dangerous send (the Newcome) berme they could reach the shore, which, by the merciful aid of Providence, they crossed in safety, and at eight o'clock pined the beach, and were received by their townsmen, who 'sorted them on shore, so exhausted and bruised as to be in capable of walking without help; they were, therefore, either carried or led by two men to their respeeuve homes. At day-light not a vestige or the vessel could be seen ; and there is every reason to believe, that the five men who remained perished soon after the life-brat left them. The crew of one of the brigs were saved by a Lowestoft yawl; the milers succeeded in gaining the shore in their own boats. . _ The manly exertions of the brave fellows, who so nobly volun. teertd in this cause of humanity, cannot be too highly appreciated ; their perilous situation was sufficient to have appalled the stoutest heart, yet, amid the horrors which surrounded them, such was their anxiety to rescue their fellow.creatures, that their presence of mind did not for a moment forsake them. To Lieutenants Carter and Manner we cannot bestow too much praise; and though we will not presume to dictate to his Majesty's Government, still we trust that their meritorious conduct. which has so repeatedly been manifested, will obtain for them the pro. motion they so justly merit, Letters from the Cape of Good Hope, dated Nov. 14, state, that in addition to the money remitted from Eng land for the distressed settlers, 5,000!. had been received from Calcutta and various parts of India ; the poor emi grants are now in conseßuence in the highest spirits. The general opinion in India is that there will be but little cotton shipped thence for Greet Britain this season. About 60,000 hales bare already been sent to China, and as the prices offered there are tempting, it is presumed that more will follow ; and we may add to this, that the crop is believed to be deficient. What is perhaps another strong reason, the rate of freight to England is at present so high, and the reports of our markets so unfavourable, that people will be afraid of such a speculation.—Teleseope.

LAW INTFLLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCIf, JAN. 22. Mr LORD CNIET JUSTICE THE NATIONAL NANA or SAN CARLOS (M•DAID) v. DC NEWALES. Mr. SCARLETT stated that the plaintiff was the National Bank of San Carlos, established at Madrid, under a charter granted by Charles 111. The defendant, a Spanish merchant, residing in Condon. was corresponding agent of the Bank, under an agree ment that either side should allow 4 per cent. interest to the other for money Icing in their har,da. It was to recover 20.20111. and odd of interest that the action was brought. There were cases. both in this Court and in the Il.tuse of Lords. in which a Foreign Company had been allowed to sue in our Courts of Law. The ATTOIXEY-GENEIAL stated, that he meant to make no such objection to the action. The officers of this Bank *ere now in confinement in the prison of Madrid, and the defendant did not know to whom to pay the money. Jr. SCARLETT—One of the Directors of the Bank is now in this Court. the Charter of the bank was then put in and rad.

The plaintiff in this action was the gentleman who now had the honour of tilling the high and important °Vice of Lord Mayor of the City of Lou.. den. It wax known, in all probability, to the Jury, that Alderman Garrett had inherited from his father a lucrative and extensive business as a wholesale tea-dealer ; it occasioned to his client very considerable regret that he was compelled to bring the present action ; it war no; altogether his wish ha recover the turns of which he had been defrauded that induced him to bring the present case into Court, for his reasonalde expectations on the strsject were ce tn• bined with a sense of public duty, and of what be owed to society. There was no ditty more sacred to individuals than that of giving characters to servant s . I t was n u t on ly a d uty to t h e i n di vi d ua L but a duty of the utmost importance to society in general, and it ought to be executed by every man with the greatest integrity, In order that industry and merit might receive those rewards which ought cot to be bestowed upon fraud and idleness. If those were excluded from trust and confidence who had betrayed their trust and violated the confidence. that had been placed in them, it would make more respectable those who were in the clam of life to be en gaged in such employments. He need scarcely observe, that all the mischiefs arising from false characters might be erected as well by concealing faults as by misrepresentations. The /servant whose dis honesty had given occasion to the present proceelinge was named Taylor. The pLeintiff would rather that the defendant should be ace quitted titan found Knilty, for he had no private feelings of resent ment to gratify, or views of interest to serve; he wskel for their tree. diet upon broad and general grounds—upon the grounds that the cis. fentlant had not only given this dishonest servant a character, which he knew to be false and unjust, but that he had (lane to with the direct design of upholding the interest of that servant. The person whom he had already mentioned, a 51r. Thomas Taylor, was a traveller employed by the defendaet going journeys into the west of England and into Wales. The defendant was one of the partners in the hailer of Ilolah and Company, whole sale tea-dealers, and this person had been in the employ of that house from 1819 until the end of 1821. On ire 31st of De cember, in that year, his services to the delendaht term nated, sod, having previously received notice to quit, he had fir thwith applied to the plaintiff to be employed in his service as a traveller. A gentleman of the name of Miller, who had hintaelf bun a tra veller, was then in the house of °arrant. and ss he knew this Tay. lee to be an active, clever man ,of business, he was sent by Mr. Garnet to make inquiries , of Messrs. finals and Company. as to the honesty of this Taylor. all other things relating to him being already known. This Mr. Miller saw the defendant, who answered that Taylor was perfectly honest, that he was an excel lent traveller, and would render the house great services. He fur ther pretended, that lie had dismissed him solely on account of his having contrectiel a bad debt, and given an improper credit.— Upon this character he was taken Into Mr. Garrett a employment, his services communed en •thie.bie ie./snuffy. at a salary of M. a year, to be increased by 25/. a year, until it amounted to three hundred pounds; he. was to be allowed twenty-three shillings a day for travelling expenses, with one shilling and ninepence a mile. Upon these terms he continued in Mr. Garratt's service until his dismissal last year. lie had apparently conducted him. self so well, that, upon his last return frein the country, the plaintiff had ordered him a gratuity of DU- But when the account eame to be settled, after allowing him the gratuity of 10/ , with all his arrears, and every kind of expense, there was found to be a balance due upon the account of 3401. and some odd fraction. The next day it was found that he had no framer to pay this balance. These and other circumstances led the plaintiff to write to his clink-rent correspondents. to ascertain what transactions he really had hail with them. At length it was diacavered that, soon after this Taylor bad entered the service, he had begun a s y s tem o f embezzling the money he received, anti that he had continued that system to the time of his dismissal. He di I not give credit in his journey bcoks for the money he had received, or he gave credit only for part of the sums, and the customers who hail liquidated their debts were still debtors upon his master's books, whilst he had always more money in hand than he was obliged to account I for. The next journey he would give credit for the balance to the former customers, and retain the money of some other customers, and this scheme he continued until it could last no longer. He bad come into the plaintiff's service in January,' 1822, and his filet fraud was committed on the 211 of April following. He had received from a man named John Taylor a balance due to the plaintiff of 771. 10s. 9(1., and for which he had given no credit whatever. The bill of exchange which he hid received on this ocraidon he brought into the general account, 1 and kept Taylor still debtor to Mr. Garrett. Ile hat! different' persons in Court, brought up from Wales and the West of Eng- I land, who would prove numernuit transactions of this nature.— He had also received eight hundred pounds, part of which he had never credited, and the other part he had never paid. He had also written to say that he had received a bill for fifty pounds from a! friend at Bristol, and upon the strength or which he had in- duced the house to give that friend credit to the amount of one ; hundred pounds. The friend proved to have been an insolvent ; person, and the story of his having received the fifty pounds was a ' fiction. These numerous frauds led to the indictment of Taylor, who was tried at Ginticester, and sentenced to transportation. He would prove that this man had embezzled from the plaintiff's house 1 more than fio9/. Ile ccraid not, it was true, prove that the pretended ground of the defendant dismissing this man from his service. viz.; his having allowed a customer to contract a bad debt, was a false- ; hood ; but he could prove that, in the month of November, before ' he (lid quit the defendant's service, his deficiency on his account 1 , was between 600!. and 7001.; and dint the defendant did make him produce sureties for the payment of that sum. A letter, in the de fendant's hand-writing, dated Oct. 17, 1821, and another letter to! which the defendant wasp:ivy. dated Dec. 5, 1821, would prove those facts. The last letter called upon the sureties to pay these deficiencies I, within 14 days, agreeably to their joint betide; and it stated that • the amount of the deficiency then ascertained was 6411. The' fourteen days ran to the 19th Dece:nber, and neither Taylor nor his sureties had paid the debt ; and yet, within a few days after this, did the defendant give Taylor an excellent character for honesty. But it had been ascertained that neither Taylor nor his sureties could raise the money to pay off this debt, and it was therefore clear that the defendant had al interest in upholding the character of Taylor, and In getting him an employment, by ; which lie could gain money to pay off the d •ht. The defendant, ' finding the sureties not able to pay, hail taken good notes or ac eeptanees from Taylor , to pay up his deficiency by instalments of 250/. each ; one war to fall inie in six weeks, and one upon the 4th June fidlowing• The first note was paid by the sureties, Taylor i contributing 501. The second bill was removed to a day when Taylor found mean, in pay the debt, the fact being, that such means were derived from the frauds he was practising upon the plaintiff'. Ile did not mean to say that the defendant had wished Taylor to commit these frauds, for, In that cam. he would h tee] been as guilty as the criminal himself ; but he had given this false I, character. knowing well that it was false, and havin.; at the . time practised this deceit; the greatest interest in upholding Taylor's credit and character. Ile should ask a verdict for 1001. and 8001., but he wan willing to let the amount of damages be settled out of Court; for the principle of the cause, and that upon which the pre sent action turned, was not the amount of fraud committud by '1 ay he, but the misrepresentation made of Taylor's character and con duct by the defendant. John Miller deposed—that on the 2d of January, 11221. he called at the house of llolah slid Co., to inquire the character of Taylor ; saw the defendant, who took him into a private room, and told him that he believed Taylor to be honest ; that he was indefatigable, and would make an excellent traveller, and would scud plenty of orders, and that our house would have all the benefit of the expe rience he had had at his house. Ile said he parted with him only on account of n bad debt from l'eter'a, but mentioned nothing of other deficiencies. We therefore engaged him upon this character, baying made no other inquiries. We allow a traveller , besides his salary, twenty-three sh illings a day for travelling expenas, and twenty-one shillings a week for his horse. It is his duty to send up hit accounts twice or three times a week, containing a statement of all he receives and all that is due. Mere Taylor's book was pro d u ced. When Taylor ca me hoen e, he en tered h iaj n urn al in to our ea., h book ; the balance is to be paid after the deduction of the travelling expense; he returned from his last journey on the 2.1 February, 1823, and entered his journey on our cash-book, and 1 settled that account with him; he paid me VOL in cash and bills. non ac cola' of hip( journey. The balance due after this was 3941. its. fid.; after allowing hitn all his expenses, 531. 15s. was +ll he had to pay, but the whole balance was demanded.

Witness bid never paid for thole goods. T..ylor had known him before. William Hulbert, formerly a cleft in the house of Hoiah and Co.. proved that the defendant, Mr. Stanton, was a partner in that Route. The house had a customer, named Peters, who failed in their debt tinder tear:ice:tar circumstances. In consequence of that transaction witness had instructions from 31r. Johnson, defeedant's partner, to serve Taylor with a notice of d:imissal ftum his service• After notice to quit, but before Taylor 'emitted, witness was ap prised of deficiencies in his accounts. His deficiencies amounted to 11311. Witness made out an account of them on the leth of Oct. 1821, by. Mr. Johnson's directions: the account, when made out, wan handed by witness to Taylor. A letter in the defendant's hand-wriths, addressed to bloc. BastM, one of Taylor's mantles, was put in end read, stat!ng that. Teyltw was going to Dilate] to receive sonic money which be said he had owing to him there. Witness stated, that Mr. Stanton conducted the . correspanding department of the house after Taylor entered the service. Anothei letter, in defendant's ha- d.writing, addressed to Mr. Bastin, dated January 22, 11122, was put in, for the purees, of showing hie knowledge that there were deficiencies and irregulari. ties in Taylor's accounts, to the amount of 611/. Witness said that the deficiencies in Taylor's accounts were ascer tained in consequence of sending circulars round to the different customers.

This was the plaintiff's ease. The A ere ereOKetnat.thenaddressedtheJury on bebso of the defendant, and called their attention to the serious nature u • the chaege against his client, a most respectable tradesman, had hitherto bOrne in life the meet honourable and irreproachable character. He was charged with having mule a fraudulent representadon to the plaintiff: The Jury ought to bear that in mind, that he was charged with having made a fraudulent repee. sentation, not for his own benefit, but for that of another. Unless the Jury . were satisfied that the defendant acted from fraudulent motives, tt was quite clear that the plaintiff could net recover in this action. He should show that the defendant was incapable of the conduct imputed to him, that he had acted Lona lids, fairly, and without any improper motive. It would be proved that the plaintiff and his partners considered the conduct of Taylor to be un xceptionable. They never believed that he had conducted him self fraudulently whilst in their service. The fact was, that Taylor, from his first entrance into the house, owed them a baLeace of are:mint, for which they gave him credit, upon the faith of some reversionary property to which he was entitled. They knew that he would be ultimately able to pay them, and, therefore, tilty g at e him credit for what was due to them at the end of each journey which he made far the house. Taylor had been in their service for two rare end was it to be believed that his empleycre would have continued him so long in their urvice if they had env doubt of his honest y ? Surely not. The retention of hint in th eir em ployment so long, demonstrated their good opinion of his honesty, integrity, and activity as a servant. The letters produced did cot show that Taylor had been dismissed for dishonesty, that he had been guilty of frond, but merely on account of his having con tracted some bad debts on account of the house. The only quo_ Lion was, whether the mere deficiency in the accounts amounted to a guilty knowledge on the part of the defendant, that Taylor hat been guilty of fraud and dishonesty 1 The fact was. that Taylor had been discharged, not by the defendant, but by Mr. Johnsen. Unless the Jury were satisfied that the defendant acted fraudu lently, falsely, and from sinister motives, it was impossible to make hint listek Tee object of this ac - ion was, indirectly, to make the defendant a suety for Taylor to the plaintiff. Bat there was no pretence for so doing; the defendant could nave no bene fi rial in terest in setving Taylor ; his interest, as a tea-dealer, would have been &free ed by recommending him to the plaintiff; because the connections of his own house might, by such meats, be withdrawo. through Taylot's exertions as an active nattier. Even no indirect motive could be suggested, and certainly none had been proved on the contrary, it was proved that the defendant's house was clearly indemnilied from aU losses, by means of the security abide Taylor had given. But had not that laintiff himself been guiltyy . of great imprudence and want of catmint ? Hal he not fumed only to blame for any losses he might hare sustained ? He hart early intimation of some irregularities in Taylor's account ; Mid yet after that he continued bite in his employment. Taylor had been detected in an act of fraud and dishonesty, and still the plaintiff, after that, continued hint in his service for more than two years. Under such eircu:nstances, then, could the plaintiff be at liberty, after such a lapse of time, to turn romtnd, and seek hone the defendant an indemnity for those losses which he had sustained in consequence of his own remissness and negligence ? If the Jury were of opinion that the dtfendant had acted bona ,fide, and ' without fraud, they would have no difficulty in rolouncing a verdict for his client, considering not merely tl e amount of ea mai" but also the injury which a ve.d•ct for the plaintiff would w,tk to the defendant's character. He would sit down, contilently anticipating a favourable result to l.is client. Mr. John Johnson, formerly a part tee with the defendant, proved that the firm ceased to exist in August 1871 The defend. ant had been in the house for seven years, and conducted the Wt. respoeding department.
