IS ?US MATTIS OP POLSTOWSCRAIITP. ___ Mr. OisionT statsd thatthe psdtioem, 1171i;i1112ei,, was en titled to a potion of tbe fonds of this charity. These were to be adbeted by a pito foe their arringeotent now under consideration of the Mauer. Counsel was therefore instructed to more, on the lowa of the patithwier, that be be allowed to go before the Master, tor the purpose of taking cut that his left should not be neg lected on the asocation. oted the petition on behalf of the trustees of the charity, whothought that the expense attending the proposed proceeding would be more t h an the calms justified/ Ths vic Exit. scr LLOR stated that there was a method which he should adopt of reconciling both parties. He would secure to the petitioner the objects desired by his motion when the scheme now under the Master's consideration came before this Court for ap proval. It would therefore be unnecessary to incur the expense on the opposition to the tootles was made. NUNOZ V. DE TASTNT AND CO. In this ease the plaintiff as representative, according to the laws of Spam, of certain persons, had filed a bill to compel the dc. terdants to pay a sum of six thousand pounds received from the startles represented by the plaintiff. The defeodants demurred on t!•e deficiency of the bill, whisk omitted to introduce a party that ought to he before the Court. :ill. Kot appeared to support the demurrer, and Mr. Bic !IL &- STITH in oppraition. The particulate of the transaction, as appeared by the bill, were the ft-Coring :—ln the year 1813, four persons of the names of Dares, Beaver, Roza, and Boson, formed a partnership at Barce lona, the former being the active, and the two latter. dormant partners. Soon after the firm had been formed, a cargo of Salt meat was shipped to. and disposed of, at Cadiz. The produce, amounting to nor BOPOL. was secured by Darges, who awl:dent the sale, and by him remitted to the defendants in Lootion, for the, purpose of purchasing British manufactures, fur the bene fit of the Barcelona firm. Dames and Beaver were both drowned before the money thus in the hands of the defendants had been applied to the purchase of British goods. Roza and Boron Ore renounced their rights as partnere in the firm, by virtue of a low prevalent in tep tin to the following etTect :—that a dormant or naorivirou. partner might retire from the firm to which he be longn.l. on forfeiture of his originally subscribed capital; that he is thereby rendered imsponsible for any subsequent engagements of the exicern : and that he is entitled to claim, .as a creditor, whnteter stint he may have subscribed beyond his original share. Roca died in the year 1116, and Boson did not long survive. The dettas of all the parties having thus annulled the partnership, the trate according to law became possessed of whatever interest might :,sate therefrom. The plaintiff was appointed its agent, and in rmtt of such commission preferred to this Court a claim against tie tiatendants for the money which had been placed in their hands el the part of the Barcelona firm in the year 1813. The bill then Led did not state that the plaintiff was the representative of Roza, one of the tircessed original partners. On this omission the de riurrer was founded. _ . . . . The Counsel fur the plaintiff argued that the renunciation rh‘cli had been executed by Rom, rendered the introduction of him before this Court a matter of superfluity. The Vlcr.Cuaxc ELL° a adverted to the principle of the Spa. nish law which had been quoted by Counsel as bearing on the Actientease. 13y the provisions of that law s dormant or anony mous partner wax permitted to resign, on condition of renouncing the capital which he had originally subscribed to the firm in the capacity of a partner ; but he still had a lien on the concern for - whatever sum he might have advanced for the use of the frrn, metre than the proportion prescribed to constitute him a partner. A pdltibility, therefore, existed that kora might have made such ad ear.co ; on this supposition be would necessarily be a claimant un tta-estate, and ought therefore to come into Court as a person i,lterested in the decision of a suit in which the firm wes a party. Tie two active partners having died, and the two dornyint having renctoneetl, the Barcelona firm was insolvent according to the laws nit Spain. In this emergency the State managed the property for tie beacfit of-the creditors. The plaintiff must be deemed the ',rent of the Spanish State, and having neglected the represenia tion of - frau (who, according to the view of the Spanish law, w'gist be a creditor), his Honour confirmed the demurrer, with tease to the plaintiff to amend. O.:UHT OF KINO'S BENCH, WEDNESDAY, JAN. 25. THE. NINO V. LISTEIL ` 7.: r. (hIIINEY moved fora rule to show cause why a new trial not be had in this case. He stated that the defendant was the Inventor of so improved method of manufacturing wool, as srsvof - the-machinery by which this process was effected. An in. fo•atation had been filed against the defendant by his Majesty's A ttorney-General, at the instance of a Mr. Haddon, a gentleman I bad long carried on a similar rnanufacpre at Aberdeen, upon what he (Mr. Haddon) was pleased to think the same pro ...osic'erthat fire which Mr. Lister had obtained a patent. Mr. selon's system was not introduced into England until about NA months • since, when it was put in practice by a Mr. Ohlacre, at licieester ; whereas the defendant had been in the possession of Ms patent for three years, the particular object of which las' tee suriglitening the fibre, combing by a particular iostrumens. :Amen' from those generally used, and peeing it over heated ...Ousters, which tended to bring the wool tom a state of greater aid finer texture than could be done by any other means. At the trial. the Learned Judge (Mr. Justice Bayley) Vought that Mr. Lister's patent had been anticipated by Mr. 1-!ttidort; and the cause was stopped. Ile (Mr. Gurney) had ty contend that the two proceasse in question were essentially different, inasmuch as the wool in Mr. Lister 's went through ta.sle.srhkh was not to be found in that of Mr. Haddon's; and the.ban teas supplied by the latter at a period later in the pre. paration'than that of the defendant. which their Lordships would :treys all go! ig on at one and the same time. The Loan'entr.l Joanne said that he had paid some alien rico to the specifications, in the expectation that the cause would tare come he!ore lino, and he was of opinion that the patent of ;dr. Haddon destroyed that of Mr. Lister. Frin'the evidence it wet perfectly clear tiat he did not merely claim the application of the heat, but of the general process and machinery used throughout ; ...tether it was dote at once, or whether th e heat was supplied at ~6e, two, or three different times it did not matter; 'it could not be cor.dileted a new invention. If the defendant considered that the pa the wool through water entitled him to his psdent, be should r.arsArtred it tin the , ground. He (the Lord Chief Justice) was tt r...pision that. his Learned Droller had druid perfectly right. fir. Justice lolropi and Mr. Justice Littledaie 'concurring in Zhu+ opinion, the rale vas refused. • SIZTT to. 'MLLE. Me.

At this juncture, however, Mr. Cooke walked on the door of the Court. Mr. TAUNTON then went on to state his case. The defendant Lad been Mein ded'ita en indictment with several others for a con. Noirsey against Sir George Jernierghael (now Baron Stetted). Two prsisi.w.ly appeared to sake their trials on that indictment at Stafford, the desindsatellantea Stamp Sutton Cooke, and a person of ctn. rame of RichadJakinons. The Jury found Jame*Stamp F.u:tor. Cooke gailry of a conspiracy with his Worker Richard Stafrogd:Cooka, the. object of the conspiracy being to de lprive the thee Rh (leave •Jarningham of certain lands and poseessioLs UT Aicti4e was lawfully eatitle4, and Richard ilehicloton nut guilty. Richard Stafford Cooke, who was Moe of the persona named in the indictment, pleaded rropondeat ouster, that he was a Peer of Parliament by the title of Baron Staffonl. This plea wait over-ruled, anti he than plaided not goiltv. Ale. Taunton con tended, in opposition to Mr. Campbell, that in order to support a verdict of guilty in a ease of conspiracy, it wan not necessary that two persons should be convicted, though the law held that two persons were neenatary to form a cm...piney. The !teemed Counsel said thut the second count of the indictment charged that the four defendants, Richard Stallion Cooke, James Stamp Sutton Cooke, Richard Jeckinson, and Jame!) R. Miles, did break into Stafford Castle. and that J. S. S. Cooln said he was agent to his brother, Lord Stafford, to which situation he bad been appointed by the House of Peers, anti committed serious ontragei is end on the property of Sir Color Jerninghsm. Mr. Taunton then cited eases to show that the punishment of ape ufrander fora conspiracy might take place, although none otliege con- I rented had been prosecuted to conviction, particularly that of Kinnessley and Moore, in the le Strange, 1103. Kinnersley and Moore were indicted fora it main offence; Kiniersley only ap peared, and pleaded to the indictment, anti was found guilty ; se vend exceptions were taken in arrest of judgment; the third was, that in every conspiracy there must be two persons at least, and that here there was only one, hut the objection was over-ruled. The Learned Counsel said that if the second person should afterwards surrender, and on his trial be acquitted, though that would go to affect the first conviction, it would not be ground for the Court's delaying punishment in cases, by the anticipation of such a result. Learned Counsel then cited the rose of she Kind v. Isacbeills, in which two persons were tried for a conspirecr, and theme died before pleading; there also it was argued that it was necessary to have the accomplice, but there also the Court determined against the arrest of judgment on that account. '4r. Taunton then went through several other eases to show that the low had never consent ell to suspend its mullahment on one offender for conspiracy, merely because there wee another party in the indictment, who had not been brought to Ifni, and whose trial, if it ever did take place, and a verdict of nut- guilty recorded, would nullify the former pro ceeding. on the ground that in a charge of conspiracy the Jaw re quired it should be.brought to bear by the act of two pensom at least. Mr. CAMPBELL was heard in reply, and contended that he had already cited the cows brought forward by Mr. Taunton, when he (Mr. Campbell) opened the case, with one single exception. The fact was, that Mr. Ric:lard Stafford Cooke had twice pleaded one plea. which had been ocer.roled. butt the other still stood on record— that Olen was not guilty, and that he might yet be put on his trial if the prosecutor pleased so to do; if that was so, and if it took place, and he were acquitted, as well as Miles, the other defendant, than the conviction of the defendant, now on the hoar of the Court. would be bad, and , he would he entitled to his discharge; and on this paint it was that the present case differed from all those which had been brought forward in the course of the argument. The In, Cntar JI , STICE said that the question was, whether the judgment in this case should be arrested. It was not necessary to look at the finding of the Jury. mid therefore not ne for him tosay any thing upon that, but that they had found rr h e7ict against both' hmthers. It had been said that Richard Stailwd Ceoke had pleaded not guilty, but the net was he had not so pleaded until after the verdict of guilty had been recorded against the defendant. now on the Hon of the Court. It had been said that Richard Stafford Cooke might- be acquitted; that might he possible, though it was impossible to shut out the circumstance that a jury had already found him guilty. though that li , ding was irregular. The Lord Chief Justice was clearly of opinion that the rule must be discharged. Mr. Justice Ras Icy, Mr. Justice Hoiroyd. and Mr. Justice Lit. tletiale delivered their opinions to the same effect, and the rule was discharged. Mr. TausyroN then prayed the judgment of the Court upon the defendant, as he wa. Low present. The Long emu t• it . sv re F Raked Mr. Campbell if he desired to have the judgment suspended I As matter of favour, m upon rea sonable ground beir g shewn lie might apply—ouch a ground as bringing Sir Richarit.Statibrd Cooke to trial ; btu at any rate he had better take time to consider on this point. The defendant was then amended to the custody of the Marshal. WOOD AND WOOLKR. Mr. Kelly applied to their Lordships for 3 new trial in this ease. The trial had taken place before the Lord Chief Justice, and the Jury found a verdict for the defendant, on the ground that there was a partnership existing heoreen the plaintjand a person of the name of Keene. He stated that he made thin application on the ground that the Jury bad not been inkined what psrticular description of partnership was allege.) in this case. There were threeideseriptions of partnerships : one general, including all the partners for all purpoaes whatsoever; the second, dormant part ner Ship ; and the third, partnership in particular works or publics. tions ;—in either of the last two Keene might have stood. The Learned Counsel cited several cases in support of his poshion, when, _ . _ The I.OID CHIEF JUSTICE said that it watt dearly proved that Keene was not a dormant partner; on the contrary, he was con ducting the business conjointly in every resptct, Wood signing drafts, paying bills, and doing every set that a partner could do. The fact was that there were reasons why the existence of this partnership was kept back. If it was true as stated that the defend ant would not now pay any one for shot had been done by the plaintiff; then they had brought, it upon themselves; they had placed themselves in the situation in shiest they ulw stood; if they had regulated' their affairs so as not to be able to recover at all, or pay one, it was their own act, ar.d of which they had now no right to complain.—Rule refused. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, WesrmixsTra„ WILDNESIMY, JAN. 2.5. Sitiings in Baum JENICIX, AND OTHEBs•v. VlDDot.rfi. ESQ., EIDTAIFF OF HERFFORDSHINE. This was an action brougiieagaiiisiitii.;heritrof Herefordshire, for injury sustained and expenses incurred in conscvenee of an alleged neglect on hie part, and false return to a writ which witb giten hint to execute upon the plaistifli.. . . o It appeared that the party iuing out the wit gave instructions to the SherU' not to execute it. and in consequence the return ton es: inventor was made by the Sheriff', although one of the parties was at the time in his custody in the county poi, and held the situation of matron to that establishenent, and the other resided within six miles of the place. A writ of outlawry was sued out against the plaiutill; and it was for. the injury sustained the action was brought. The Jury found for the plaintiff; giting, according to the in. structions of the Lord Chief Justice. such damages as covered the expenses incurred in setting aside the outlawry. Mr. Sergeant NVILDE now moved to set aside the verdict. and contended that an action could net be sustained against the defend ant for neglect, and in the next plate he could not be charged wilt a false return when it was a practice sanctioned by the Courts to make such return, according to the. instructions which he had re ceived. Ile also submitted that the outlawry was woe the conse quence of the neglect or culpability of the Sheriff. hut of the plain tiff not answering when called, as usual, at the Gounty Court.

The hooves in question were :514 and 315, High.street, Borough. They were let to Mr. Thomas, who paid 9111: per annum tar them to the Governors of St. Mary. Mr. Thompson held a lease for 21 years, 15 of which were unexpired.

It war a matter of importance to the Gawarnors of St. Mary, bemuse if those houses were not estimated and taken under the Att. their site would become a frontage to the new street lentlisg to the bridge, anti must of course become of great value. He called upon the Jury to give the same value as if the I.ruperty belonged to themselves. He would call evidence to prove to them the teal value of the premises. Three Gentlemen whom hz would call would prove chat the lowest value of the premises is 3.3 i ltd. and they vary ttom that sum to 3.7001. 31r. Thomas deoused to the annual rt nisi of the premises at pee scut; the houses' in Pepper-alley produced 29/. 13s. per annum ; that to his own occupetion was worth 109/. per annum ; and he had let see adjoining one for 80/. per annum ; retnenibered Mr. Perrin caU:d upon him. and can swear that he never said taktino notice of the houses on Pepper.alley because its inhabitants were his in. imams, nor did hart). any thing to that effect. Mr. linotard, a surveyor, deposed to the value of the premise., which In his opinion was 3.2931. including the taments at the back. . _ . r. FC. Alwanlis believed the talue of the premises to be 3,153/. Os. Ikl. hlr. IVinsrenley 'clued the premisewat 3.6811. 10a. Mr. NXA N replied, after which the Jery retired, and in half as hour returned with a verdict of 2,8001. for the claimants. The Rimy Ginette says—The mortality in this town has, wi:liin.these few weeks, been very plat. Since the com mencement of the present month there have been thirty two burials, twenty-sx ef which were those - of children under eleven years of age. The prevalent and fatal disease is measles. An extraordinary instance of instinct was witnessed near Maryport last week. A poor redbreast attempted to tly over the riser Ellen, bur through great weakness fell into the water. Its helpmate, another redbreast, seeing its dis tressed situation, came to its assistance, and seizing it by thestutt of feathers on its head actually bore it safe to land. —Tee i ltr.n • *r.

IiIARLBOItOEGH-STREET. I.lnOniso lier-exus. -Yesterday Thomas, Yates. a middle aged, clerical looking man, was brottght rip by the Olikeri of the Mendieity Satiety, from Peter's-place, Walworth, for obtaining money under false pretences. 3fr. Walker, the manager of the Mendicity Society, stated that the case of the prisoner was one of as From a nature wi he had ever known. For the purpose of carrying his plans into execution he had assumed the name of a highly respected clergyman of the Esta blished Church, in which character he had written to Lord Dudley, recommending to his Loniship's attention the case of Mary Jones, of Cheshire, who by losses in business, Mid .having had her house destroyed by fire, was reduced frosu affl i uence to. ndigence, fie stated that he had made, the like appeal to the Evil of Stamford and IVarrington, who had sent the distressed .. per'son 61. He added that lie had received a letter from Doctor Hodsell, who certified idiot Mrs. Mary Jones was the person represented, and that he as Treasurer to thd Literary Fund Society and Chaplain to the Royal Humane Society, had r e presented her case to the pro per authorities, and had obtained relief for her. To this letter he aubjolned his signature as the fiev. 1/r. Robert Yates, of Feder's- Walworth-common. A similar letter wet 31130 written to Lorti Rolle, and to the Earl of Stamford and Warrington; but Lord Rolle, from some bad spelling towards the conclusion of the epistle, suspected that all was not right, and being intimate wi.h the Rey. Dr. Yates, his Lordship wrote to him for farther particulars, When the Rev. Gentleman informed him that he knew of no such person as Mrs. Jones. In consequence, his LoidabiWsent the letters to the Meadicfty Society. The Earl orStomfivrd and Warrington enclosed U.-in a note to tool Dudley and Ward, begging of him to send It to his friend the Reverend Dr. Yates. _ . _ The Petitien of Mary --- Jonee was then read. It stated that she had live children to .s..ipport, and that about 801. would enable ha .to begin bosinese again. Lord Dudley and Anvil being petinfied of the fraud, and desirous to detect he author, wrote to she pretended Dr. Yates to wait on him of his house. In'reply, his Lordship received a letter, purporting to be from the Rescreen ISoctor's lady, in which she stared that her husband had been thrown from his horse, and son very ill, but either Mrs. Jones's niece or she would wait upon his Lordship, or if he would wait until the recovery of Dr. Yates, that gentleman wonld do himself the honour. 1 his letter war, signed Catherine Tales. This answer strengthened kin Lordship's se .Tl , . ' clone, and he sent one of his servants with an officer to discover the Reverend Dotter, and take him into custody Mt. Pyxis—What is your name and business, and what do you say to the charge P Prisoner-31y name is Thomas Yates, and I am a cooper by trade, and haste worked in the Weld IndiaDoets for 19 years ; but by old age coming on I was discharged ; but I never wrote any letters to any t.osletnan in.my life, needle I ever go by the name of the Reverend Pr.

They inquired who he was leaking for ; sad when he had told them, one of them said, " Oh, there is the 'muse, lam biadaughtew" Re went with her to the house, where he saw the prisonayand informed him that he came from Lord Duellry and Ward, who had sent a sovereign for Mrs. Jones; on whith the prisoner acknowledged himself an the reverend 4cntlemar, and desired his compliments to Lord Dudley and Ward; and that be was much obliged to him for the money. • The . prinoner, on being asked hr an explanation, still denied all knowledge of the trantmetion, when Mr. Dyer said that he was only surprised that humane persons were to be found to give credence to such tales when frequar.teeposures had taken place at the office. Ile hid no iloubi but eat he had imposed on various other persons by similar practices, and he would therefore remand hin, fora week. • FORIKTOW Af4tIIAGES....4 . 4XItMtIy Vial the day appointed by Mr. ll'inkfield and 31r. Hitchock for the final tiecision of t h is important case, the particuiari of which hare appeared fully in our fel the comas of the morning Ur. Gest entered the office, and gave into Mr. Dyer's hands the Act of Parliament, which was brought ferwsrd by Lord. Holland in JuLy entitled " An Act. to render Foreign hfortagerrvalid." Mr. Grist stated that be had not been aware of ouch an act qutil a gentleman in the office had intitrmed him of the cireumstance, and lie considered, from the wording of the Act, that it was totally free from every objection which the det'endaat's party cauld urge, m the Act went to render valid retrospectively as well as for the future, o il marriages on the Continent, either in. the army or navy, provided they were per formed by a clergyman of the Established Church. 31r. DrEn, on reading the Act, observed, that Consuls were left out by the house of factors; and British factories in a foreign country were stated to possess the 'same priiilegea situ Ambassa. does home; and if the house of a .Consul was consideied as a factory, it went to overthrow all.objectiows. Just, however, at the close of the office, none of the nartics making their appearance, Mr. Dyer sent ever to Mr. lArinklield, who instantly attended ; when 31r. AVinktield stated that there had been a consultation of the different parties at his house, and were then there; when an arrangement was likely to take place, by Mr. Votlett agreeing to give Mrs. Vodoz a sun' of money (we believe about IT/. or 900 : but the question as to whether the ntartiage was valid or not Val not aramed; although he was not inclined to give apace tittle of tho validity. Mr. Hvyrt replied, that Lord Holland's Act, and which Mr. Grist had brought with him, set aside all doubts upon the subject. We are extremely sorry to state that Captain Rae, of the Eclipse, Liverpool trader, was drowned on Thurs day forenoon, at the Bryon&law, Ghe;gow. One of the tracking steam vessels struck the Eclipse with such force, that Captain Rae, who was standing at the railings of the gangway, was tossed into the river, which was high at the time, and the body was not found late at night. Ile has left a wife and four children.--Liverpool Paper. The Charles, of and from Calais, Maaset mister, arrived at Dover on Thursday last with merchandise. On the fol lowing morning some paper parcds containing tea were dis covered on board by the tide-surveyors, who suspecting a further quantity might be concealed in the vessel, a sear.h was made in tie hold, end between the package of merchandise were found several ,bags of tea, containing about one hundred weight, and four packages containing paintings, gold watches, and silk goods, which, with the vessel, were seized. The master and three of the crew then on hoard were also detained, and in the evening were proceeded against before Edward Thompson and lienshaw Latham, Esqrs., Justices of the Peace fur the Town and Port of Dover, who convicted the several parties in the penalty of 1001. each, and in default of payment were conimitiad to prison, under the new code of laws for the prevention of sinugglinr;, which came into operation on the Gth inst. —Kentish GaLette. ALTERATION IN 'rue IRIS:I MAIL?—It IS at present in contempletion to start the London mail from Holyhead fur Dublin the moment it arrives, without waiting, a; it now does, for that of Chester, which will be transmitted by separate steam-vessels. A new line of road is also in contemplation, by which the distance will be shortened at least ten miles, so that it is anticipated that, by the be ginning of autumn, the English letters will be delivered in Dublin by eleven o'clock, A. at. on the second morning after their despatch from London. A plan is also under consideration for forwarding the English mail at four o'clock in the evening; in place of seven in the morning, as at present. We trust this alteration will cause some change in the hour at which the Holyhead mail leaves thin city at present ; which, in order to meet the London mail, is very soon after six o'clock in the evening. As the Chester mail to Dublin will be transit - tined by 14i:irate vessels, making its departure from this city a 'few hours later can be of little consequence, while it would be a very g reat accommodation to our fellow citizens.
