TWYSDEN'S CASE. The CU, of Witt. Tarts( Esq. eldest son and IPir to Si, l'..vyfulrn, Burt. of Itoydois Hull, Keht, which has been so repeated%) before the Court, and postponed principally through neglects its 'waters of fount, will thin dry decided. Mr. ANDREWS interposed some further (ike tiro,* in point of form, and succeeded in separatiog the claim of * particular creditor from the present adjudication, io comequence of the schedule served on Mr. Virgo, the Soncitor, being without a date. There was a blank before " November" in the sehedule, and the particular date was accidentally omitted. This particular debt was the.efuse agreed to be excepted, toad a fresh notice in the particular instal...e were complied with by Mr. Ttvrden. Tlw caw was ihru proceeded upon, r es p ec ti ng the other opposing creditors. Mr. Toys(len was then examined by Mr. AN- DaEWs, ill followilig manlier : Q. Have you read over the schedule you have pot oil the tiles of the Court I—A. I have. Q. I find you state w it several large debts due by you, as bearing interest, without specifying the amount ; can you more particularly state the sums g this interest ?—A. I eauuot, fur I did taut precipe iii the d sirs of many of the bills, Bud there fore calm , ' judge what may be their probanle amount with the interest. You will See by my fteliedote, that I owe Mr. [Jou!ditch a balmier of C 491. for 4arriages—he has my bills of exchange, Learl lig interest since 1813. Q. Who is Mo. Keats, to whom yon state your sell as liable lair the payment of I,nooi.?—A. is a iie•ter in the City. pith whom I have had large dealings on account of a Mr. Walker. But ilion_th I ii. eri this sum to lion merely to shield tmeelf r ; o nt the liability, yet I know that the notes, 011 which lily 'Sallie was signed, have been paid. The too.iey was for Mr. Walker—he has paid the hills, but in consequence of his being no the Contioent I liver not hero ,:ble to gut them, for the purpose rating my signienre. Q. Who is Mr. George Pentland, of Perth, who Lnttls otesst isles of yowls to the amount of 12,4001. 1. He u a coachitioker, who has post-ohit bond; lir his ony i wit notes for 3,051 a, and a Alt.

But Mr. Pentland 'widths. whole since, to eott%rtito-her of looeet!- to t • hint stayed to (114111Vey to pr. vest ruen tery al Lord motley.

Mr. Warder's debt of Chelsea is 700/., for whirls he has a post-obit bond. The value I gist for it was a hoer, and of by no means the value it was represented to me. Q. When did you came of age ?—A. In 1809. Q hive yo u !mice your becoming of age re ce.vrd a regular allowance from your family ? A. No, I have nut, I have heels depending on the homily of my family aeil friends. Q Have you ally objection to state the amount of the iellowaisce cols have received in this manner. I d set f ovea she goes , not, should you feel dip. incline to answer it ?—A. I have 1111 übjecti 111 l to gnawer this question; my father may not with me to do so. Q. I perceive your debts amount to 19,6191. How long hive you heist contracting them I—A. Since 1809; very few indeed have been incurred since 1812. They have been partly gambling and pertly real debts. Q. I perceive ilist some of your securities par take of the mime character—are you ready to deliver Op to the st.tigtoves the whole of your securities ? A. Mom crumbly I am. Q. have yon soy other bill from Lord Been• champ but this one for 7,7001 ?--A. No; that is the amount of my whole claim upon him. Mr. PO I.LOVK then examined Mr. Tropicfen in explanation of his affairs, and received the follow log answers The annuity 1 granted to Mr. Menu was in 1812, and though I sin nominally hound for 4,2001 in this transaction, yet the whole received was 1,4001. and Mr. Menus charged me IDOI. for drawing each of three deeds. For the y I gave Mr. Virgo, I o n ly received six years' purchase, and hr also charged use 100/. for drawing op his deed. I was in the army from the time I was i 6 years old until I became of age, and dur ing the time of my transactions I have paid away to different creditors upward. of 14,0001 for which I hold the actual receipts in my ham], and I sup pose I must have paid awry 10,000/. more, for which I Gave no vouchers." Mr. ANDREWS then addressed the Court, and contended that from the nature of Mr. Twysden's transactions, as stated iu Ins schedule, and deve loped in his examinatiosi, he must have either been the dupe of the vilest knavery, or the willing spendthrift of the property of his creditors, in such a manner as to preclude the possibility of his re ceiving the benefit of this Act of Parliament. The COURT, in pronouncing its judication, re viewed the whole of Mr. Twysden's case, and ob served that lie was the heir apparent to a family of great rank and consequence iii the County of Kent. He had been, it was quite clear from his own state ment, a young man who had acted with great ex travagance. with great improvidence end iiidiscre t' , in this a►►d other countries; but before the Court could come to the harsh decision of remand ing him to the walls of a prison for five years, far gross injustice to his creditors, it must be conscien tiously satisfied that it was the intention of tl►is voting Gentleman to incur debts without any pro bable means of paying them, and to cheat and d.l. nod his creditors. Now in all cases the law required that the creditor who called for the severe ►nterposition of this peualty, should appear. when hr gave the credit, to have taken all pro per mid diligent means of assuring himself of the situation and circumstances of the party with whom he confided. Here the parties opposing were annuity creditors, who were not likely in such a city as this to *Mealier their money without knowing the coudit►on of the person who burrowed it. There were regular public offices for them to resort to. in the view of knowing the particular en cumbrances (if any) which may have previously been given on any property represented to them as good security for the sum svasst.d. Mr. Twysden had gone to these people, paid them their premium, and given then► the security with which at the time they were satisfied for the advances they made. Had he gene and represented himself as the heir-apparent to a title viol estate, to which it was afterwards fo Ihe bad no claim—then indeed they might jowly complsin of fraud, and the law would afford them redress. There had been here no false re. presentation ; Mr. Twysden had stated himself to he only what iii testily 1w was, sod whatever might have been his indiscretions, the Court could see no rea snit to admit this uppositirio as decisive against his applicat 1111 l ; and frogs' a full view of the whole of his case, was of opiiiion that he was now entitled to his discharge. Mr. VIRGO, the Solicitor for the opposing ire ditur, hew rosy and said, that notwithstanding the personal offesice he had received fr Mr. Twys den, lie had no wish to detain him within the walk of a prison, by rufor.:ing any further the objection which, was admitted by the Court, for the omission of the date in the schedule. He therefore abandoned the force of the objection. Mr. Twysden was accordingly discharged from all the claims on the lice or his schedule. The First Division of the Court of Session has been for pomp days past occupied in hearing Coun sel upon a mown fur a new trial, at the instance of the proprietors of the Belfast Arms Letter news paper, agiiiist a verdict ul the Jury Court of Glas gow, be which damages to the amount of 1,5004 were a.vareltd to a Mr. STEWART, merchant is Glecsge w, fur the libel publishril against him in that Stapp:.

Beiug desirous of disposing of a gig, be deposited it on the premises of Mr. Hitchcock for that purpose ; be afterwards changed his miud, and countermanded the instructions which be had given; notwithstanding which, on an application by Captain Bean fur the vehicle, he was informed that it had been sold. It was still ou the Defendant's premises, who bad positively refused to give it up, on pretence that it bad bees regularly disposed of, and that he held himself amenable to the pur. chaser fur the fulfilment of the contract. Mr. Hitchcock was about making a defence to the Com plainant when lie was interrupted by the Magistrate, who •alarmed him, that he had no jurisdictiou in the case, and must decline iutcrfering; the Captain should apply to his at toruey. BENEFIT SOCIETY. William Bell, one of the 'members of St. James's Union Benefit Society, summoned the secretary and stewards fur refusing him relief. It appeared that Complainant had been a member for four years, during which time be received no benefit till about the 15th of October, when be declared on the box, and continued to receive relief till the 10th of the following month, when the treasurer sent the money by the •isiting Member; the latter not finding him at home, inquired of his wife; she said be went into the yard to give instruction* for some work being done. The steward* conceiving this an innovation of the club articles, excluded him, but sub sequently, agreeably to one of the articles, the Me was referred to she arbitration of twelve members, six to be no minated by the Complainant, and six by the Stewards. The arbitrators having considered the case, directed him to be reinstated, but conceiving he was imposing on the dub, de clared him not entitled to the money he sought. Now, un investigation, it was proved, that by virtue of the 17th article any sick member declaring On the hoe, who shall be found at work, and at the same time receiving ally benefit, without having previously given 94 hours notice, shall be entirely excluded; and that un this occasion the Complainant had been more leniently dealt with, in copse quence of his former good character.

A Coronet's toquest was held on Saturday last, but it was thought advisable to adjourn it until this day, by which time it is sincerely to be 'mord, that some held will be thrown upon a transaction at once so horrid and melan choly. The Magistrates, and other principal inhabitants of the town of Ruthin, met yesterday, for the purpose of ntsti tuting every necessary inquiry connected with the subject, entertaining sanguine hopes that their combined expitiotia may ultimately lead to t h e detection of the guilty party.

Ou. feeling the ellecis, he screamed out, when his lather leapt out of bed, and taught him iu bus arms, while the flames were nearly at his should ers. The father, whose hands and other parts of his body wi , 're scorched, consoled himself with the pleasing idea, that he had saved his boy from being burnt to death. The boy continued, as was supposed, to du well, and endured the pain arising from his thigh anti left side being' burnt, with great patience until Monday morning. when the iIIaSIMMA_ lion whirls bad taken place proved fatal, and he died about ten o'clock of that forenoon, leaving his parents to lament his untimely fate.
