WHITT T. WRIGHT. In this case an action e•aa bri.uglit by the plaintiff; coeditor of Win. White. deceased, to recover na 3 per Cent. Cansolidatell Bank Annuities. On the part of the defendant it was alleged, that the transaction was usurious. A special venlier was Mund in Augdst, 1915, that ‘Vin.ll'hite, the testator, lent the defendant the sum of 2 . 8 L. the produce of 4140. Consolidated Bank Annuities, upon his baud, as security for thi payment of that sum, together with 121. per an. nuns, being the amount of the dividends which the testator would hare received if he had not sold out toe stock ; and that an agree melt alp' entered into between White and die defendant, by which thedct udant bound himself to transfer, en Um next transfer-day otter August, 1111 ii. or at any future transfer-day, 400/. t'ottatili dated flank Annuities to the testatur or his executors, if required to do so. .Mr. t T TV, un the part oldie plaintifft, contended, that they owelit to recover. as the loan should be considered 'as a loan of mock.

My dear President—This morning I received the note from the iGoverement, enclosing me the proposals, or rather the °edit.; of Gm. Le Fuente , that 'despatches should be sent to his companimis in amts. The tone of La Fuentes with the Oorirnment has shocked me, though previously I had reason to be surprised at nothing. He says very plainly tit •• t the despatches must be sent; that is to say, he orders it. This General, my dear l'resident, is mote ab- SJit'l4 than the Congress, yourself, or me. Will you believe, that wba:st be commanded at Truaillo, he retained those persons in the sznice. whom the I iovernment had ordered to be shot? Col.

Silva offered to snake important disclosures, but nothing was dut:c. all through the management of La Fuente. lie besides i xeitis jealousies among the troops by his unjust preferences. His pride is such, that he sent me the countersign by his aid, I being rith my staff at Truxillo--aa if he were the Chief, and not myself. At the dinner table, he placed himself at my right. He came no father than the dour of the drawing room to receive me; he never tame to my house to ehnsult toe about anything, as you have done :4 often, the Minister of State, and others. I know this was owing to your excessive goodness, but 1 also know the distance between yourself and him is Multiuse. I will add, that these things made an impression upon me till this moment; but the insubordination of La Puente is so gr eat , that we cannot den e nd upon his o b e yi ng anythieg that is or dered. You must umlerstarM that I reproved dim very much for his disobedience to the Government, respecting the execution of the criminals, who were ordered to beehot, and I exhorted him to submit to the laws and the authorities. He re. plied, then he was commanded to commit an assassination, since the ceder was for the secret execution of the men, without trial, . and ovit:Jout 'imams I replied to him, that I did not doubt that this all origiotted from Berinditaga ; and that you were . too good, end too much of a gentlemen, and that occasionally i • Beriodnega's advise was not the best, as in this ease; foe A ,secret execution wiilioet trial of persons of consuptenee, was a shocking thing, and li=d always been disapproved of.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, THURSDAY, OCT. 28. Wallet V. WILLIAMS. The I.OtD Curti Jusrtce, at the sitting of the Court, stated, that the Court could see no reason why Barker I. Williams, which was determined on a special case, should be argued again, and therefore the judgment lutist be for the plaintiff, and which would enable the defendant to bring his writ of error. EAST INDIA COMPANY V. TSITTOX AND OTHERS. 111 r. TINDAL stated, that this cue came on to be argued on a epeeist verdict found for the plaintiffs, on an action brought by them against the house of Barclay, Tritton, and Co., for the re covery of a large sum of money upon three several bills of ex change, bearing the names of that house as endorsers. This was for the payment of the money twice over, and the only question for the Court's decision (Mr. 'f. conceived) was, whether the lion. But India ('ompany had proceeded against the right panics. The allegation in the counts was, that when the bills were presented to Barclay, Tritton, and Co., for payment, they haul upon the back of them, Barley, Trion'', and C 0.," and he was bound to say, that when a bill is presented for payment to a party, with that party's name upon it, it does import true genuineness as against that party ; but then it was his duty to contend that it also imported a warranty by that endorser of the genuineness of the prior endorser; and in support of this doctrine he would cite Smith v. Chester, let Term Rep. p. had. It appeared that a gentleman of the name of Carr had a general power of attorney item .Mr. Hope, to collect monies. &c. but which, according to a former decision of the Court, did not authorise Mr. Carr to endorse bills of exchange; he, honorer, did redone the hills now in question, hick were put into the hands of Meese& Pareday, Tritton. and Co., who presented them to the Fest India Company, and the Company acted upon them, under the no tien that Mr. Can had been properly authorised to endorse; but that turning out not to have been so, this action was brought against Meese.. Barclay, Tritton, and Co. for the purpose of compelling them to reimburse the sum, amounting to oetween 20,00111. and ::o,olkll. PO paid by the Company. The Learned Counsel supposed the objections to Le made on the other side would be, that the East India Company knew the tenor of the power of attorney bchire they paid the money, and at any rate the Statute ef Limitations would bar the claim. As to the former, he could only contend, that the endorsement of Messrs. It erclay, Tritton, and Co. was a warranty of the legality cf the former endorsement; and with respect to the Statute et ',imitations, he was ready to argue the cane upon that point if the Court wished to hear hint. The East India Company were only trustees fur a large body of creditors, and they did not consider that they would have discharged their duty had they not pudied the law against the defendants to the extent to which they list! done, end now solicited the opinion of the Court upon the question, whether the defendants ought nut to reimburse the moray. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, there was no wish on the pan of the Court to trouble the Learned Gentleman on the Statute of Limitations, because they were perfectly settistied on the other part of the case. that the plaintiffs could not maintain the present action against the defendants. If we only look at the Clue (conti. cued his Lordship) we clearly find that the plaintiffs, before they paid those bills, took such means as they thought proper. to satisfy thernaelves upon the authority of Cure to endorse; it appear' , that the very power of attorney was exhibited before them, but it does not appear that ft was exhibited before the defendants, or that they then had ever known any thing whatever about it ; therefore the defendants must be taken to stand in the situation of having re- ceived a sum of money from the plaintiffs after the plaintiffs had taken such means as they thought they ought to have taken to satisfy themselves that they were justihed its paeiag it. L turns ' out, however, that the power of attorney was nut good, and that the defendants were agents who received the money, and who' afterwards paid it over to their principals, in doing of which, certainly they were justified. If before they had paid it to their priucipals, they had had notice not to pay it, because Messrs. Davies and Cur had before drawn it out of their holds. or that there had been a fraud practised, then Messrs. Barclay, Tritton, and Co. might have been Justified in refusing to pay it over whin called upon by their principals. but that wee nut so ; and, there fore, I am of opinion that the plaintiffs are not entitled to recover. Mr. Justice Balms:a—My opinion in this case, that the plain titre are not intitled to recover, it not founded on the fact that the defendants were merely agents of Messrs. Davies and ('an; be cause, in the course of the proceedings, they have never insisted upon that, and therefore, it cannot be said they have deluded the E'art India Company into the belief that they were principals, though really only agents; but my opinion is founded on these legal rules, namely, that in this case. at the utmost, the plaintiffs can only contend that both parties are innocent ; and also, that in this case there were means of knowledge on the part of the pieintiffs, which means of knowledge do not appear to have conic within the knowledge and reaeh of the defendants ; and, therefore, if% after pos. sensing all the means of knowledge which have tranepired, they think ' fit to pay the money, and are entitled to get that money back again, it would work great injustice. In this case the defendants arc aot the parties who get the money front the plaintiffs; there are intermediate parties, and the plaintiffs were to look at the power of attorney to see that it would authorise the indoreemem. Now I I am not at present prepared to accede to the principle contended for I at the bar, that every endorsor to a bill of exchange warrants the validity of the prior endorsement; it seems to rte, that to lay that down as a general principle would work great mischief. It appears here, that the plaintiffs, before they pay the bills, see the power of attorney, and have it before them in their own basks, by virtue of which the andoesement is made, and it is for them to judge whether that power of attorney gave authority to make the endorsement; m fact It did not give that autho rity, but they thought proper to assume that it did, and upon thit assumption they made that payment to a party upon whom no blame attaches, who were not bound to !talk at the power of attorney, anti who had not the power of attorney to look at : therefore it seems to me, the present plaintiffs are not entitled to call imon the defendants after the lapse of fifteen years, to rein]. butte them with the money, no fault attaching to the defendants. Put it, in this cue, that Barclay, Tritton, and Co. were net agents, but principals: if, in 11109, when these bills became due, and were presented to the East India templety for payment, they bad re. fused to pay them, what would Barclay, Tritton. and Co. have donee 'They would, of course, have called upon Davies and Carr to pry them. 1 think on the whole, therefore, it would work very eat injustice, and instead of being beneficial to the negociating of bills of exchange, it would be very injurious; it would be against conscience to say that the plaintiffs 'should be at liberty to recover the money against tke defendants. Mr. Justice IloanoYD—l am perfectly of the same opinion, both upon the rules of law, and the facts which have now been stated. The money was paid by the East India Company, not upon a mistake of feet, hut upon a mistake of law, and which hu been ernfinned by many subsequent acts. The East India Ce.n -' pany had the means of knowledge as to the authority of the en. dersemett, upon which knowledge they acted ; the defendants re ceived the money upon a belief ilea the plaintiffs had a right to pay it ; it turns wit, however, that they had no such authortte. The defendants, being only agents, after receiving the money paid it over to their principals, and they were not bound to have refused paying it, unless an action had been brought against them for the repayment of it to the East Joshua Company. Here there is no express promise on the part of the defeualants to re pay it to the plaintiff., if the power of attorney should turn out to be a bad one; and I think the law does not imply such a promise ; I think it would be very unjust to consider that the law did imply such a promise, and therefore it appears to me the plaintiflit are not entitled to get back the money from the defendants. Mr. Justice LITT croAt.r—lt seems to me also, that the plain_ tiffs arc not entitled to recover against the defendants. Mr. Tindal, in one part of his argument, says, if a bill is endorsed by a posent, that person gives a warranty that the former endorsement is genuine. Now, here there is no capress warranty, and therefore the war. Testy must only be that the law implies. lam not aware of any case expressly in point: all I find mentioned above it is by itlr. Justice Chamberlain, who says that it may imply a sort of warranty. The special verdict finds, that the plaietilis paid the bills, not upon any warranty, but upon the faith of the power of attorney, which was exhibited to them befoie they paid them. When the plain tiffs paid the bills they were in possession of the means of know ledge, which the defendants were not, and the law will not imply a warranty. If there had been a fraud, or the plaintiffs hail known thst Carr het) so authority to endorse the bills, that might hare altered the ease, but that not having beau so, the plaintifs cannot recover. to be repaid by the same quantity of stork, the transaction would tower a higher rate of i nt erest (not eltectling the amount of the not be usurious, althou g h t h e lender might receive from the bor dividend on the stock) than five percent.; but it's party sill out stock, and lend the proceeds as money to another person, and re. serve to himself an interest exceeding live per cent., but not exceed ing the dividends which the lender would be entitle to iflte Lad not sold his stock, the transaction would be usurious. The trinsactimfon which the Court . pronounced its decision n tw, would he usurious, if the borrower, instead of the feeder. lied the option of replacing the stock. or of paying the money produced by the sale of the stock sold by the testator. nonsuit was diteeted to be entered. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, Turrap.iy, Ocr. 28.

The presiding Judges are, Mr. Baron Ganaow and Mr. Justice PARK. The calendar, although numerically light, contains a great many capital indictments. ir. Oliver was indicted for assaulting W. Hepburn on the high. way, on the 21st of August, and taking from him a watch and ap. pendages, and a snufl-box, his property. Mr. CARRINGTON conducted the defence. The prosecutor stated, that he resided In Parliamentatreet, Westminster. On the 21st of August last, near eleven o'clock in the evening, he was on his way home through Duke -street. West minster, and was perfectly sober; some person gave him a back. handed blow, which knozked him down, and rendered him sense. less. lie slid not perceive who it was that inflicted the blow. Be. tine it was struck, he heard a woman's voice close behind him, in conversation with a man. Witness felt the watch drawn from his fob. lie lost also a French tortoiseshell snuff:boa. Had seen his watch since at a pawnbroker's. J. Harris, a pawnbroker, in Tothill.street, Irestminsttv, pro duced the watch In question, which was pledged with him by the prisoner for fifteen shillings, on time 224 August, in tho name of John Junes ; it was no uncommon thing to pawn In a fictitious name. J. Cooper, a poliee-uffieer, apprehended the prisoner on the 24th September, when he found, among other duplicates, one in the name of Jones fur a watch. APitnesa went to the pawnbroker's with the prosecutor, after be had questioned the prisoner as to whether he had pleJged the things for himself. The prisoner said that 0. Turner pledged the things fur him. Mr. Justice PARK-117M you always said so ? because this is a very material point; and I find the ilagistrates here stated quite the reverse in the deposition. The witness was quite sure that his statement waa correctly made at the li:dice office, and corresponded with that marls to.day. (i. Futile ' another o ffi cer, stated that the prisoner told him that he had purc hased the watch three months before, of a man in the Abbey church-yard, but that he was ignorant of his name or address. The watch was produced, anti was sworn to by the prosecutor, as it had been his companion thirty years. The prisoner (the son of the boxer), in his defence, said, that there was a watch-box on the spot where the robbery was said to have taken place; henes it was impossible a man should lie stunned so long without being discovered. lty the CuueT—The watch-box might be there, but no watch man in it. A person named Richardson stated, that he saw the prisoner purchase the watch of J. Turpin, in Peter-street, for 18s.; this was about the 9th or 10th of September last. Turpin is a dealer in marine si,res in Duck-lane. Witness saw Turpin, and J. Ed monds (who was also present whets the Imolai.' was made), last Saturday. They were not here to-day. The wimesa was rigidly examined by the COURT, but he per sisted in the correctness of his statement. Several persons who had kno;Tthvp;isoncr from a child, spoke in favcurable ternis of his character. Mr. Justice PARK summed up the evidence, and pointed out the contrary statements made by the prisoner at various times. and the counter-evidence of the witness Richardson, and remarked on the absence of Turpin and Edmonds. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty—Death. Wirt. Moore was indicted for assaulting John Weaver on the King's highway, on the 341 of October last, and taking front Lis person an umbrella, value 75.. his property. The prosecutor resides at Knightsbridge. He formerly lived as under-butler with Lord Carnarvon, but was out of Aare on the Scl of October lam. On that evening he had been to sup wish some friends, and was returning home in a sober state. The prisoner met witness, seised him by the throat, and exclaimed, with an oath, " What money hare you gut ?" There was another person with the prisoner. The latter took the umbrella, after he had struck him several Violent blows on the throat. Witness called a watch man, who took the rrisoner, with the stolen property in hit pos session. Benj. Balky, the watchman, took the prisoner with the um brella, which he carried 106 rails, when Ire threw it away, and attackxl the prosecutor with "voids and blows. The prisoner, who is a man with one kg, made no defence, net called any witnesses to character. Mr. Baron liastiow summed up the evidence, and the Jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict of Guilty—PeaM. Aged 25.

IV. 7'hotelter, a respectsbre-lookirg young man, was indicted for stealing, on the11:11 of October last, a gelding, value 3W., the property of Mr. C. Eynon. T. Page deposed, that he was a servant in husbandry ; on the oth instant he saw the prisoner with a horse in his possession ; a man overtook the prisoner just before witness. and asked the price of the horse , when the prisoner demanded 111/.; 151. was bid and refused, and at length the prisoner sold it for 16/. lOs. Samuel Bye was in company with the last witness on the fhb instant, when they met the prtsuner with a horse; lie finally bar gained for it at Ifil. Itts. Samuel Francis llolylar.d, a police officer, at Reading—Saw the horse pass through that town, but he did not know its whose cus tody it then was; he wateMployed by the prosecutor to trace it, which he succeeded in doing, and found it at Kensington. The witneas Bye was rairidled—lle stated that he had never seen the horse iu qumnion since it was put into the stable, and whether it was that which was the subject of the present inquiry he did not know. 111 r.

After a mutual souffle between the prosecutrix and the prisoner, in which :Bra.

It was an unusual proceeding, but the Court had the power to act so, when occasions arose for the exercise of such lenity. The prisoner wept bitterly, and left the Court expressing her gratitude. The Jury were then discharged till tie 6th of December, being the adjournment day. POLICE. GUILDHALL A respectable-looking young man, named Edmund IVoods, was brought up yesterday morning before Mr. Alderman CROWDZI, on a warrant charging him with assaulting 111 r. W. Barrett, with a drawn sword, and threatening to kill him. From the evidence it appeared, that this was one of those inns tine jars which not unfrequently resulted from second marriages, more especially where there it already a faintly. Edmund Woods, the defendant, resided with his mother at No. 127. Chancery-lane. Ills father died tome time ago intestate ; the widow and lice son being on good terms together, no administration had been taken out ; the yroperty had been considered as that of the mother, and her son had assisted her in her business, collecting her debts, and receiving the rents of two hours, which had belonged to the fa. ther, ail which, it should seem, he bad satisfactorily accounted fur to his mother. Unfortunately, however, for this amicable arrange. meet, Mr. Wm. Barrett, the complainant, fell in love with the widow Woods. She had no objection to be again a wife, and their nuptials were accordingly celebrated a few days ago. By virtue of this marriage Mr. Banett now considered himself entitled to be lord el the domain at No. 127, Chancery-lane, and to all the rents and profits heretofore held and enjoyed by his wife; and in endeavour ing to establish his authori in these particulars, the affair of which he now complained occurre d.. According to Mr. Ilarrett's statement, young Woods having re. celled some rent;and also a sum of 141. debts due to his mother, he (Mr. IL) went to his room to demand the money he had re ceived, and also to have the account honks delivered up to him. This the defendant refused, put himself into a fighting attitude, and actually seised a sword that was hanging up in the room, and pointed it three times towards his breast ; and, said Mr. Barrett, no doubt he would have killed me, but for the interference of his his mother and two other persons. The defendant said he had, since his father's death, received the rents and the bills; and as his father did intestate, he thought he had an undoubted claim to some share of the property. Mr. Barrett was most anxious to explain to thc Magistrate his tight to all the goods and chattels, claims and debts, of his new wife, but .. . . . . . . . The Alderman said he bad already . heard quite enough, and would not be troubled further with their family quarrels. There seemed to be equally as much violence on the part of the com plaimot as of the defendant, and he should di►mias the matter altogether. BOW-STREET. • Yesterday Mr. George Berry not Perry, as stated by mistake in a former report), appeared a second time to an swer to two informations exhibited against him by Mr. Bradfield, " public spirited" coal-merchant (to burrow a phrase of his own) the first one charging him Irish baying refttsal to measure a sack of coals when called upon so to do; and the second, with neg lecting to cause a bushel measure to be carried in a conspicuous part of his waggon. It will be recollected that Mr. Berry ap peered on Wednesday se'onight to two informations, charging him with the same offences, but they were dismissed, in consequence of Mr. King, the informer, refusing to proceed, for reasons then stated. Mr. Ilaastk et, for the defendant, took objections to the infor mations. This led to a long discussion, in tie course of which Mr. Brad field became somewhat violent in Ins addressm to the Magistrates. Sir It. BientE thought the objection fatal, and dismissed the information. Been informations were dismissed, and all the pasties left the office except Mr. Bradfield, who remained at the table, and in a Ibkd tone dealt out accusations against various indisiduals. Ile was at length desired to withdraw. - •• - • • • A publican named Johri Keats, landlord of the Black Boy, in St. Man:Ws-lane, was charged with an assault upon Upton, the °nicer. Upton stated, that he was proceeding up St. Martin'sJanc last night when he wet the prisoner, who, without saving a word, up with his fist and struck complainant a violent blow on the head. Such an unusual mode of treatment caused his detention in the watchhousc. The prisoner, in his defence, pleaded intoxication ; but the Ma. ;risque, Sir H. Mitsui:, desired hint to fi.:d bail to answer the (Marge at the Sessions, lIATTON-GARDEN. Yestirday John arriili;4; was brought up in custody of Lim brick, the officer, charged with stealing a silver watch, value 4th. and upwards, the property of Mr. James Coates, of Stratford, in Ewe. Mr. Cortes being sworn sti.ted, that on Sunday evening, the 17th instant, he and the prisoner, together with another person, had been drinking at the Green Man public-house, Stratford; complainant bmatne much intoxicated, and while in that state his watch was taken from him; he spoke to prisoner about it, who observed, •' You will hear something of it in a day or two." Came to Lon don, and desired prisoner to inquire at the different pawnbrokers. It was traced to ihe shop of 31r. Nicholls, 41, Gray's Inn-lane, where it appeared it Lad been pawned by the prisoner, or a person very like hum. Mr. Francis Oxham, of Stratford, saw the prosecutor, prisoner, and another person, in the parlour of the Green Man on the night named. Saw prosecutor, who was very drunk, take out his watch and hand it to the prisoner, to tell the hour to another person. 11'it ness did not see the watch returned, because prosecutor fell fast asleep at the moment, and prisoner went away into the tap-mom. John Ilindrew, shopman to Mr. Nicholls, proved the watch to have been pawned by the prisoner for one pound, in the name of Gant. . . . Eitubrick, who took the prisoner Into custody, said that he was known to have purchased, since the watch was pawned, a new fits haa coat, for which he gave 161.; and he retus:d giving any satis factory account of himself. Samuel East, the landlord of the green Man, stated, that he knew bo.h the prosecutor and the third person who was in company on that night, but did not know the prisoner. When the watch was missed, prisoner insinuated that if it was gone, he (Mr. East) must have taken it. The prisoner, in his defence, denied any knowledge of the watch, and persisted in saying that the landlord was the only person near the prosecutor when it was missed he therefore should know something about it ; beside. it was ple dged in his name. Mr. East seemed extremely butt at this insinuation, but the Ma gistrates assured him he might make his mind perfectly easy on tnat score, as no person would give credit to the assertion. The witnesses were then bound over to appear at the Sessions, now sitting, and the prisoner was fully CO4/1111Illeil foe trial. While the depositions were being taken down, the prosecutor, who seemed a very delicate young man, fainted in the uhice, and was obliged to be carried out between two men. BIARLBOROUGII-STREET. Yesterday MOM Marcia, a private soldier beltmging to the Coldstream Uuards, was brought from St. ricorge's iratchhouse, charged with having committed an outrageous assault on James l)iaon a corporal belonging to the ;tit hussars, and Mary Ann, his wife.

Wit ness seeing that his antagonist was the worse fur liquor, he did not resent his conduct, but desired him kindly to go home ; instead of which, he only renewed his insolence, and kicked his wife in the most unmanly manger, and seized witness by the throat and at tempted to clunk him. Ilia wife became alarmed for his safety, and called out 31 order !" two or three times. A watchman came to his assistance, but he was soon laid prostrate ; a reinforcement came up, and lie was crentuallv secured.
