COM?'OF CHANCPV, SATURDAY, 11.kitzn TOE EARL or STRATUMORE. This was a motion n the part of Mesas. Lyon and Roebeck. trustees oti the nuke of lord Strathmore, called ithadwell, and the abject of theapplication was, that a variety of orders pronounced with respect to this estate, since September, lift.'d, might be re tecioded ; and it was also prayed, that the receiver appointed in 11119 might be discharged. The ground upon which We motion was made was; that the trustees had no notice of these orders so pro potuided, and had proceeded in the management of the estate as if these orders had never been propounded. With t:espert to the die. charge of the receiver, it was urged by the Sonteurron-lit hy whom the motion was now sohnoiroted, that the l'rus tees who possessed the legal estate, had a right, on giving good se eurity, to apply for the discharge of the receiver upon the property. Mr. SULOEYatiet M.'. PIIILLIMORE alp:Mired on behalf of the Globe Innurance Company, who were large incombrancers upon the property, to the amount of 30e.J1. a-year. The lammed Counsel urged that there was no pretence for this notion, the effect of which would be found to be, that the Trustees. who now ap peared, were only the tools of lord Strathmore; and the ohject of the parties was to till their packets at the expense of the incum braneere, who were alone ermtleil to the rent. The Lout) CLI AN cELLeat thought he certainly could not grant the application as at present ?lamed and unless other parties were before the Court ; he meant the ;hole of the creditors upon the estate. The Soi.rettron-Urset al., in reply, urged his lordship to direct that the bill should be amended In this risport. and diet a fresh application should be inade upon that amended bill. Ile apprehended tharit would lie to the interest of the tootles that the re &leer should be di icharged, and he thought that the trustees had • to demand it. 'The Loan ('nswcrl.i.oll. was of opinion that he ought not to direct the ainctulnieit of the bill. If the parties thought proper to ahthe a 'second application to the ('m i nt, it ought to be done upon a new bill, a,;.ti renewed notices. It had always been his desire to admit tenants for life into posetssion of their estates if other in terests did not prevent it ; but in t.he present instance, the inruin. brancers moat first be satisfied. Ile saw nn reason whatever for niscluteginf the receiver, and it' nintions of this kind were acceded to—if receivers were to be blistered by such applications—what man of character or of credit would undertake to fulfil the duties of the office ? Ile was clearly of opinion that the bill ought to be dissniesed with coins, without prejudice to any subsequent motion er petition which the parties might think lit to submit. COVENT-NA RDEN TIiEATRI. COliaT W. MARIUS. Mr. ITEAC.O., eon:pliance with the order of the Court, now applied that Mr. Roberson be allowed to propose himself in tioe Master's office, as receiver to Covent-garden 'Theatre, otwithstand.: ing he hail beenenole • jowly to the plaintiff . 3 bill. The Learned Counsel saw no objection which could be raised to this notion. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, that his objection was mast obvious, and world be no SatistaCtOry. It was, that Mr. Robertson was an nue:esti:ll pArty, and still accouutieble for profits received. Mr. MART, on the part of 31r.Const, stated a similar objection to the appointment of 31r. Robertson. Previous to the proposal of Mr. Robertson, a gen:lto:an of the =tie of Barton had been nonthiand. That gel Leman, who was a merchant in the eft), stated, that he should be unable to devote the requisite time for the fttlfilinent of all the ditties of she office. In consequence the Master had declined to. appoint Mtn. The Learned Counsel now Understood that 31r. Boon was willing to accept the office ; std the plantiff, to she, that his was not a frivolous or captious objet. lion, hail no difficulty iii expressing his approbation el the appoint ment of that gentleman. 3lr. SUGDEN obsentd, that a liberal proposal had been male to din plaintiff, which had no: been accepted. The LORD CUANCE vx.on was surprised that these offers, which appared to be so frequent, were not acted upon. Ills Lordship asks' of what rature the proposal was ? _ . Mr. lIART—It is Mae ilitAlC paper. Mr. St:Gor.x said, that it was an offer to give 1,6001. a year upon good security. Mr. HART had no doubt whatever of the word of Mr. 111HT1s, but as to security, real property was always deemed supt4ior to the declaration of any gentleman, even to that of Mr. Harris. he Loan CHANCELLOR said, that his intention had been to afford the Master an opportunity of consitlering whether it was fit that Mr. Robertson sll4lllkl be appointed. He meant nothing fur. they than this in what he had aced, and any Master who thought differently must have been misinformed. Mr. HART myrehended that the Master would, without diffi culty, declare Mr. Robertson to be dniqualifixL The LORD Coax E tton observed, that the manner he viewed the point in was this:—That Mr. Robertson had been acting as agent to the concern, has irg been appointed by a portion of a number of individaits &emirs a partnership. The accountability of this gentleman must cense the moment he wax nominated as receiver, and he had tio Mitre •, excepting in the account which he was bound to render as receiver. The Master was at liberty entirely and freely to exercise his judgment. Mr. HEALD believed that there was not a single Master who had otherwise understood his Lordship. The application row was only that the Master might have leave to exercise that judg ment. Mr. HART was proceeding to state the manner in which he un derstood the Court. Mr. HEALD interrupted the Learned Gentleman. He knew of what weight those words would be considered. winch were then put into his Lordship's mouth by his Learned Friecd. The Loan CHANCELLOR — I desire not that the words put into my mouth snould be of weight, but only those which conic out of it. Mr. SUADWELL wished his Lordship to :rake some order with respect to the profits in the hands of the receiver. The Loan Citasc ez.noa—l will do to such thing. Mr. StLearerEtt suggested that it wits usual to give direction as to the application of the hinds in these eases. The loan t:it axe let tun said, he would deal with playhouse' property in the same manner as he would with otbtr property. The moment a receiver was appointed, that instant he would Ilia , any motion as to the application of the funds. THIS COUNTNNS OF CUTE W. TUE MON. NHL C. STUART. Mr. H •nr, in this case, applied to vary the minutes. The ques tion related to certain coal.nunca left by . the rill of the late John, Bari of Bute ; and a question lied arisen whether a quantity of coals, estimated at' ,M4ll. were included in the words, ••• property necessary fur the working, managing, and employing the collies. less" It, had been decided in the House of Lords, that these cools did fall within the words in the will ; and a.•• inquiry . had subse quently been directed before the Master, to ascertain the clear value of the coals at the death of the late John, Rae) of flute. The object now was, to vary those minutes with respect to the inquiry directed. After bearing the Solicitor-General on the other side, the Lord Chancellot [Atom:mil the case until Tuesday. ••-^ - . . iX TIIE MATTES OF CMITII, A SOLICITOR. Mr. Bic ILEUSTETM reminded his la,nlship that a motion had yesterday been made by Mr. Ban, on the part of Mr. Smith, who had been struck off the Rolls of Solici:urs. Ills Learned Friend had, at the tame time, stated, that the aprlicatioi. was not opposed by the party who had instituted the proceedings. This was woolly a r 1161.148, and the reason shy uo opposition had yesterday been ofered was, that no notice lind been given to the parties. Ile (Mr. Diektrsteth) would be prepared on a given day to ar.swer the ap plic:citn.. The Le an CH V.VC ELLOR said, tit:A he should be ready to hear' the Learned Counsel at Tuesday. Mr. LlicarcasTLTlt tiered that he should not be prepared on SO early a day. Mr. HAUT then suggested this day se'nnigbt, and his Lordship aseeded to that preparation. VIL::-CHANCRLLOTC - b COURT, N . -I ARCH 27. I!. PARTE TAYLOR 131 ME BEY DI: 6T. JUN. .. .--.--. The Sem tetion-elexteet meted that tids . .tes a petition pre sented by 3lr. Taylor, in order to stay the certificate of the bank rupt, Herbert, jun. and to strike out the name of Herbert, stn. from the sigentures of creditors to that certificate. The petition was fouodtd on au affidavit winch stated that Herbert, men. 11'3% a cre ditor of his eon's ese.te, to the aumitim of nearly 3,00111. that he bad proved his debt under his son's cumuli- sine, and after that proof he had assigned by deed all his interest in the debt to Mr. Taylor, se trustee, for the benefit or his own &editor*. Subsequently to the date of the deed be signed his son's certifica ate, and it was about to be Mired to the Lord Chancellor for his approval and continuation. The signature having bent. given by the Lobe: without the slightest consultutaon with the creditors or the trustee, that gentleman felt bound to present the present petition to his Honour, to prevent the certificate being allured un that signature which had thus been int. properly given by a person who pommel) no power nor authority in the matter. The Learned Gentleman cited two cases in support of the petition, sad observed, that although it ought be said that the person who heal prove I the debt was the only person who could legally sign the certificate, yet that did not ebange the nature of the question, which was, whether a uuette fur the benefit of others adds] sign any instrument without the captors COMMI:t of those who I were beneficially hum:teed in the debt, that signature operating as a legal release of their beneficial rights ? The 'V te e.Crtersettai.on thought that the ease depended on a *till nermwer question. Tile deed of assignment had taken ail the kht and interest in the property out of Herbert, senior, and hest vented it in the petitioner, Who was not merely the trustee OD be. ballot Herbert's. creditors. but who had been specitiedly appointed by the dead lietbert's attorney fur the disposition and management of the debt. The deed therefore divested Herbert not only of all right to the debt, but also of all power arm the disposition of it; and the question was, whrher. under these special circumstances, Herbert's signature to the certificate ;should be suffered to remain. Mr. Haas I:, tar the bankrupt, oentemlud that this petition oaglit DM to be granted. The question was not, v . :tether fl•vbeat.. sea should be restrained from signing his son's certificate, but I whether, after by signature had bees' affixed, it should be erase , '-' Who could sign the certificate except the parson who prayed the debt ? Acd aho hail proved in this instance ? The father. So that be alone was Lzally entitled to sign. This trust decd litul been given to tear oft he father's creditors; but surely the Court would nut erase the lather's signature from his son's etrudeara, and knee it to each of the parties beneficially interested in the deed to determine whether they would or not give their approval to the benkrupt's ob taiaing his certifirtee. There was no imputation against the bankrupt, it hail nut been tura moment suggested that he bad obtained that wig - nature through any fraud, nor even that he knew of this trust deed, a Imo his fatber signed the certificate. This deed did nut trans t er the power er the original creditor; it mrtely assigned his hi tt:rest in tine dividane to the petitioner tor the benefit of utf.a I The Vict4L:KascELLoa said.

The eerti ricate hal not passtd the Great Seal, and the tiNtlllOrt was, whether it should be allowed to pass, one of the principal creditors who had signed it having done sox ithout any proper Hutliority. Herbert, I sea. had divested himself of xfi power of administration of this debt, and yet he had signed the certificate, ithieh was a most important act or 4dministration of ymper:y. Mr. HORNE admitted the truth of that remark, in general eases, but observed that, in the present irstar.ce, the property would not be affected by the certificate, as Herbert, jun. ba.i been twice a bao It; unt, and had not laid sufficient uhder his tirst commission to have hts future property relc:.•rtl by the certilicit:. The VICE-Cii 4:st - 1: Limn observed, that that or.ly diminished the extent of the act of the aduiii.istration, but it did not change its nature. Roar, who was on the same side with Mr. florne, mid, I that if the persons interested in the deed intended to have taken on their:selves the power of refusing or grand; g the certificate, they Should have made Herbert, sen. execute a power of attorney, by which all this would have been prevented. The Vich.Ctrancer.Lon, after re.ststing the various eircum. MOM{ of the Cale, observed, that it WAS plain the cat's cettifivate I had not been duly signed, but it was said that as the legal power to sign existed only in the father, the Court ought now to interfere. What would be the effect of the it.terference of the Court ? Not 1 to make void an instrument which had formerly been valid, but aimply to refuse gninting a confirmation to an instruinciit that had beets improperly signed. In feet the bankrupt asked the Court to I give validity to that which was now valueless, and to confirm and authenticate a eettificate informally anti improperly igr.td. It appeared by the petitio n of 51r. l'aylor, that the defersiant had been assignee to h im for the benefit of tour creditors, but only two of them now appeared before the Court to sup,icrt the petition.'. If all were present, the Court would he bound at once to make order to stay the certificate, but that could now be dime, es the' l'oout was riot informed of the upirion of all, or of a majority of these persons. It W4O necessary that the matter sliould be ceininunichted to them anti that tney should exercise t judg. meat upon it, and acc ording to the opinion they enternaited ea to the or impropriei of the Palter's seettature being at. wetted to the certificate, it should be permirteeror refused to pass Great time. The only order, therefore, that the Court quid at ptiasent make, was, that the petitioner should call a meeting of those persons for whom he was trustca, and should ascertain then opition, and communicate it'to the Court. Mr. ROSE stated that the bankrupt was now a prisoner, anti he therefore wished for an early day to be named for the communica tion of this opinion. The VIC E-CIIATICE L 1.0 a, after having been • ifonned that the trustee resided ate !overtry, two of the persons interested at some miles , front that ti.y, ;nil the other two in London, granted per mission for the trustee to obilin their opinions by letter. is they rouid rot attend the meeting; and a fortnights time was then limited fin that purpose.

The Emus Onus. !Limo:: said he would reserve the point for the Court above. Mr. BOLLAm) then went to the Jury, aid contended that the evidence for the plaintiff was insufEcient to justify them in coming I to the coachision that the lire cuusplalard of was occasioned ulider ' such circumstances as would bring the case within the Act, so as to make the Humility! liable. There was no evidence, he submitted, to chew that the wools were wilfully, maliciously, and feloniously set on fire. The cause of the fire was n:ere matter of conjecture: it might have been occasioned by unite Mi*Cilit‘CUl boy—sonic tramper or gipsy lighting his fire, and aorldeutiliy ig niting the neighbouring plantation. being so kit in doubt, the Jury would be slow in iaaliing the &residents. who were perfectly ttee from any blame, liable tor the damage which the plaintiffs had sustained. The same certainty of Komi' requir.d to support an indictment on the Black Ail, was requisite to sustain this ac tion sgai.ist the Iltir.dreil. No such evidence was adduced, and therefore the verd.e. ought to be for the defendants. But sup , posing the MNAIb to hare been tired maliciously, still it was provrl that the fire coin:nen:ell, not iu Sir W. Curtis's, but in )Ir.
