The Loan CHANCE s.i.on wished to know what the Attorney lieneral and the l'eatimissioners for the reduction of the no tsooat debt said to this petition.

Upon the last trial qorstion was reserved for the opinion of the Court . Mr. Sergeant TAnDY was heard at Swat length for the plaintiff. The minaton was, whether the plaintiff had an insurable Interest on two bills ttf eschenge, drawn by a mann of the name of Kean, in reigland. upon Altura. Cruttenden and Mackinnon, the plain try rot, mil in India.. They were made " payable thirty days after the arrival of the shin Paragon at Calcutta." The insurance was alto;cilier one of n new kind. It happened that the ship did not arrive, nor the bills of exchange. The Learned Sergeant adduced a variety of arguments to alien: , that the plaintiff had an interest to the amount of the bah', vii. 2,01101. fhr eOllll7 said there acre three objections to the p laintiff's . title to recover in this action ; first. because he had no mumble interest t secondly, because the bile were not properly described un the face of the policy ; and thirdly, because the instruments, purporting to be bills of exchange, were worth no morc than waste yelper. It had been determined that bills of exchange dras n seed parable upon a onmingeney were good for nothing. In the ease of a man who gave a proinissewy note for payable on the event of his being married within a ecnain time, it was held that as the note was given upon a contingency It was not valid. The instruments 1, question were described as bills of exchange, when legally they were not. The Court had listened to a very ingeniatia argument, tot null. eteil mulling front it to alter its opinion. Judgiiselit tor the defendant. SHERIFF'S COURT, TUFSDAY, TiIT.PERICE 31111,43T0NY, 1:51.1.

Up to this time no suspicion eKistcd of any connexion between Mn' Johnstone and lord Ilruilenell ; but some time afterwards it was covered that she was living under the protection of hie lord ship. Aft Johnstone, on receiving this information, went over to Paris to obtain evidence on the subject; but it was not! till within a very short period of the b in time that pitch evi dence was procured. It was of this jury the plaintiff hail to complain, and to a Jury of his countrymen he now appealed for compensation for Isis loss—if pecuniary compensation could be given at all adequate to his sufferings. No nioney, in fact, could wipe away the recollection of the past; but still he (Mr. Itriigham) thought it wiot the duty of the Jury, from a senseof justice, to give such a aunt as would mark their s.n a of the de bmilant's niimainduct, end prevent that stigma which otherwise most stash In a husband, whose conduct had been invariably marked by tic wannest alßetiona, and the nimi ansinus iedieitude for the heroin( ss of his wife. The !Aliened Gentleman said he had omitted to state that there was of this marriage one daughter, who was Nov six years of age—and he would now only mention the fact, leaving the Jury to draw their own co nclusions; they would know best how to appre ciate the feelings of a father ini %steno the difficult thew: was thrown, at a peel.% of life when the parental rare and commit: of si mother was so tie:emits' to the for mation of a daughter's mind—and they would than say what da nu.tes the man who had inflicted this injury might to pay. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to call the following wit- nesses Mrs. Johnstone sworn—The plaintiff is my stmt he is an officer in the 19th lancers, and in 1817 he married the daughter of the pre sent Admiral Tallemarh. She was also the grand-dsughter of laird leiborosigh. When the marriage took plare, the plaintiff' was 28 years of ake, and Miss Ilalliday 911. After their marriage they re %Med with me. and I had frequent and constant opportunities of observing illy won's deportment towards his •ife. I always consi dered it W 11,4 that ()foliation and tenderness. Shortly after their mar riage they went to reside at Englefield-green, near Admiral 'faille mach's house, anti she there fell ill. Captain Johnstone having oc. asion to go into florsetshirr, left his wife at lErtglelield-green, but she soon after quitted the house, and Captain Johnstone followed her to Main. entss-examined by Mr. tic AREETT—My 110/1 and his wife re shied with me about two years after the marriage • In filet, it was thtir only home. In the first year the child was b urn. I thought when they were married that she was much attactied to him, but I could observe a matcrisl change afterwards, and she finally went to Paris but did not come to toy house in town. Very shortly after Captain Johnstone followed her, and he remained in Paris long enough to make My •a. Jury—Are you aware that Cartain Johnstone was the object of his Lady's elections when she married Witness—Undoubtiely my son was the object of Miss llalliday's affections when he married. UN IPER SitEatrr —When you observed the change In her affections had she been acigeaintol with Lord Ilruilenell any time'? Witness---Slie had en Lord I:nittimell in company, and also at the home a Lind Cardigan g Lord Ilnitlentil has alio come to nil holm and inquired bir her ; site has only bten acquainted with his Liinlitim since her marriage; but my son has known him since he was a boy. rtiltniial Taileinach was next ...wern—The Admiral was first questioned resikxtit4; the inarria!te. The ceremony, he *all, took place in Atimot, lit 1;, and with the perfect coasent of all parties ; himself, T.illenineh, and 31ra. Johnstone were present, nail sests..l oilier friends ; he was not aware that the Bishop of lA:milli nth. iated on the occasion, or miswrite:it. After their marriage they resided at Mrs. Jolitistone's house, and they afterwards removed to E.lo..lield.green, wi.en he was daily iu the habit of seeing her. Q. And during the time they so resided at Englefichl Green did yon observe that they lived happily together?—A. 1 know that they quarrelled very touch, had very high words, but never in my presence. About three months after they were married the plain tiff came to me, anti informing me of the unhappiness that existed between them, said his wife had just then proposed a separation. I expressed toy regret at !waiting this circumstance from pe rsons so recently enamel , and requested he would not then enter into any detail, as the accoucheur was then in the hnuse attending on Lady Tallemach. Ile acknowledged himself in error In then mentioning the circumstance, and said no more, but they continued to live very unhappily tug:thcr. In the summer of 1811, when Captain Johns one's lady was taken ill. she remained at my house, and then the t'aptain evinced great affection. In the beginning of 1823, Captain Johnstone went to visit the family of Mr. Shirt, in Ihreset shire, but when it was proposed, I never heard that his wife was to ac party hint. Q. I believe yen informed the Captain of her having left the house ?—A. Yee. upon her leaving the house fur Paris, I wrote to hint ; 1w came to town immediately. and he tint proposed going to Paris, but at toy suggestion he wrote a letter couched, as I supposed, in very fair terms, to endeavour to bring her to England, awl return to her hone; but this not effecting the purpose, he went over to I'aria. 1 called on her mother, but she was not aware where she was gone. Q. Are you aware what were the terms of the separation 1--A. The terms were, that she was not to reside in PIES, but in Eng land, with me or her mother. Mr. Midlletnn proved that he was in Paris in March, 1823, and saw Captain Johnstone there some portion of the time. l'hia closed the case on the part of the plaintiff. Mr. SCARLET? now rose to address the Jury foe the defendant. lie temarked, that the ease which had been opened by his beamed Friend had been short, and his proofs had been equally short. I Ile had witnessed a great variety of these cases. but he slid not recollect one of this sort. Ile trusted the Jury would do him the justice to believe, that there was no man who respected more the relation between man and wife than lie ; but at the same time it might sometime% happen, without the least imputation upon a defendant, that unhappy difference?' of temper might arise, which would render the marriage life unhappy, and occasionally place' the husband in such a situation as to render the lout of a wife a l eireunistanee of no great injury. The ?mum whom lie had the honour to represent was a Nobleman of the strictest honour, who' approached the consideratien of this painful subject with every sentiment of regret. It had been imposed upon him as on im perious duty. not to east the slightest refiexirm either upon the lady or the plaintiff in this case. Ills client felt that he had a repara tion to make, and he would willingly submit to such damage as the Jury, upon a fair consideration of the farts of the case, stripped of all adventitious colouring, might think proper to award. It was fit, however, it should be stated, and it was due to the defendant, that the Jury should know the fact. that whatever occurred be tween Illne. Johnstone and lewd Itrudenell, did not take place till lone after the lady had quitted her husband's protection. 11'llat ever difficulty the defendant had to encounter, he at least had the satisfaction of knowing that he had violated no confidence, and that, howeser he might have been impressed by the beauty of the lady, who had become the partner of his cares, he could not accuse him self of having had recourse to the ordinary arts of the seducer. Coder these cocumetanees. the question for the determination of the Jury was, to what reparation the plaintiff was entitled front the defendant fur the injuries he hail received. lie did not stand there to say that laird lirudenell hest not formed a very violent end esist ibis: attachment for tlet lade—mix she wits, as had been said, a lady of goad beauty and aecomPlishmente— nor was he instructed to resist the payment of such dap nages as were fairly due t but it Was impossible me to observe. although his beamed Friend had talked of the alfectiwate manner in which this couple had lived to gether, that not a single servant. male or female, had been called to support this statement. !Metal. the evidence of Admiral Til mach went distinctly to prove the reverse, for he candidly adinitted that the plaintiff anal his danehter lived anything bin happily ; and that three nuniths of their marriage a proposition was made fora separate maintenance. The Jury would also mark, that al though married for six years, there had been but one child. It was not bit intention, for, es be had already stated, his instructions for bid hint, to say one wind in the prejthhee of Capt. Johnstone; but it was pretty clear that there WAS some paramount cause, distinct Iron any connection with the defendant, that induced 31r*. John stone to fly from the protection of her husband to that of her grand mother. It was under the protection tit' that lady that she met the defendant. She was possessed of veto pertonal charms, and her rendered her more ;•.irticularly an object of solicitude. Yoder such rite-intimater, it was not extraotelinery that two young persons should forget wow w to their own happiness. Ile had, hurever, to repeat that rite plaintiff had 'sustained no loss__ he had himself acquiesced in his wife's desire for A separate main tenance, and the had positively refitted to return to his house. The Jury, weigiiing all these Wets, would give such damages as ap. pealed to them consistent with justice, and the fair claims of mite plaintite the I a; or. n dtint t: Irr IRIVITIIt !monied tip the MSC. The Jury, :dux a shorn consultation, assessed the damages at One Thotoasul Pounds. 1•01.II'h EITItAntIDIN ART L'.42117: or ItA , r nr.- -- Neltertirly ltlr . ; 1:; E. a 1111fclia.n, residing in the city. appeared hefore the lord 31.syto to Vl]lll/ a charge 11t . assault preferred against hint by a fe male, the wifo of a Lieutenant is the Koval Navy.

The fight between these candidates for pugilistic fame took plate yesterday, in • field of about thirty acres, at l'ately, a small village about three miles below Illackwater, on the borders of Hampshire, and thirty-four miles from London. The match was made some time since ; and we understand Cannon has long had a very par ticular wish to meet Josh., and found friend. in the neighbourhood of W'indsur to back him for that purpose. 11 udson is too well known to the pugilistic circle to render it ne cessary for us to make any remarks; his John Bull fighting has satisfied all. Cannon is better known in Berkshire, where he has had many turns-up, than in the P.

" That, in consequence of this impression, they strongly teen. mended the defendant to the m ivy of the Court. " That, notwithstanding such recommendation, the Court sm. teneed the defendant to one month', imprisonment in the county gaol, and a fire of 291. " That your Memo-ialists, being firmly convinced that the punishment which the defendant has already suffered (cora:tiering the severe manner in which esivicted misdemeanants are treated by the ml s of the Surrey gaol) is snore than commensurate with the slight degree of gu It which was proved befbre them, mat humbly I and most earnestly beg lea,: to recommend his case for the OHM. ful consideration 0 - the Crown, and to implore the remission of his sentence, and y ur Memorialists will ever pray.

(Signed) " THOMAS WOOD, 164, Union-street, Borough." The majority of the Jury who signed the above memorial, express. cd their indignation and astonishment at the seventy of the sentence, after their recommendation, from the provocation the defendant re. ccived. Before the Memorial was determined upon, it had been pro. posed by one of the Jury to pay the fine of 2MI. between them, should it meet with the approbation of Captain ( 'Callaghan , in order to mark their sense of the severity exercised towards him. Such conduct, from men wholly unconnected with and unknown to the defendant. puts in a very strong light the feeling which his cave has recited, The above case is, we understand, not the only one in which the severity exercised towards prisoners confined in the Surrey gaol is likely to come before the public. The debtors confined in the pri son have signed a petition to Paliament, aunplaining of the suf. ferings to which they are subjected, by the rigid regulations esta blished by the Visiting Justices, contrary, as they contend, to the spirit of the late ` - Gaol Act." The petition has been trans. knitted to Mr. ilobbouse, 31. P., and is to be presented to the House this evening. EXTENSIVE FRAUD. f.
