Mr. FoNfiI.ANQUE—" I do not know, my Lord, hot Sir Samuel Roundly has received The LORD CHANCELLOR—a' This will not do; it is not to be borne with, after what I have already Ku d, flow I am to bear a case by scraps, which minisinis to hearing it four or five limes over."

The !emit I can suy is, that the Court is not treat ed with the respect l hope it deserves ; and if it does not deserve it, the fault must be with the per son who presides.

The Loon CIIANCELI.OR—" Understand, Mr. Potiblanque, what 1 mean by disrespect; not that any Learned Ges.tlemen at the Bur would wilfully treat me with disrespect, for I am sure if any was found capable of it, it must be caused by some impropriety of mine, winch if I am guilty of, I aiss no longer worthy of sitting where I now do.

TO TIDE EDITOR OF TIER ORITISH PRESS. Wandsworth, July 25, 11118. SlR—Rending in your Paper a fret days ago, " an act-went of a diced/el accident from • stage coach," allow me to state what 1 was a witness to, last week, on my return (roils Bath. I met many Windsor, and Bath and Bristol, and va• rimer public coaches, and 1 can assure you (for I particu larly nutireol them), that they were all (except one) er laded, colter with passengers or luggage, and tmetames both. Now, Sir, the law has wisely provided (as far as hu man means can go) fur the safety of the lives of the passer,. gets; it states, " that any coach, fie. drawn by fuer bursts, shall be allowed to carry lea outside passengers, and 11a more, admire of the coachman, but iscludiug the guard ; oat peasenger only to sit on the box, and obree of such pas serapes on the front of the roof, and the weitliening six tee. hind ; hut uu pal/wearer to he allowed to sit on the loggage, or tAe port of the roof alkaloid for the same; and all stage coaches drawn by two or three hones to be allowed five out side passengers, and no more.

Any passenger may require the toll-collector to ascertain the uninher of outside passengers, and measure the height of luggage; 3.101 a striver refusing, to forfeit N.; and if more passengers are on the conch than is allowed, or luggage of the prohibited hei.:lo, he shall forfeit double the penalty imposed fur such offence—one-loaf of the penalty to the toll-rollectur, and the other to the passenger; and • toll. collector refusing to make the examination required, to fut. frit 51. anal persons evading the examination by alighting from the coach previous to its reaching the turnpike gate, and afterwards reascending, to forfeit 101. &c ; yet, not withstanding all this precaution, the law is, a■ it were, *et at deflower, by men who daily and hourly trameress, anal when ac'eideuts happen (such as your Paper described), what misery and distress is brought upon a family (which no moue, eau repair), though the coach is loaded the very next day in the same way. Really, Sir, it rouses one'a in. dignation to witness such scenes. I think, in one of your Papers, you feeling described the conviction of a poor man for seining wares without a license (Igo doubt the man acted wrung), and the fine was 10/. which br not having the means of paying, was coornittetl to prison, through he had a wife and child to support, and fur whom he was selling his little' wares. Now, Mr. Editor, I wish we had "inspectors of stage corteXes ;" or if any poor fellows out of employ were to attend on the roads, five or ten miles orouil the Metropolis, they would make some pounds, and really be doing an essential good to the public. If these hints are worth your notice, their insertion in your Paper will oblige A Constant Reader, W---.

GliaNT, JULY 20.—Last Saturday some men working at Looten-Hulle, in the forest of Kloosier boosch, discovered under ground an enorinuii. oak tree, which it is supposed has been buried there for many ages. It was 10 or 12 feet under ground. Its length is 67 feet, amid its circumference in dif ferent places, 15, 18, and 20 feet. Persons who usiderstand these things say, that it must formerly hive been from 25 to 30 feet in circumference. There are various conjectures respecting the age of this tree, but the most probable is, that it was thrown down by an inundation of the sea, to which these provinces were very subject in ■ncient times, and sfierwards buried u► the sand. The discovery has excited considerable curiosity, and people flock from all the neighbourisig parts to see this tree, for which a large rum of money has already been of fered..--(Brussels Paper, July 24.) • IRELAND. ...

The Prisoner, however, replied, that lie could not with safety go before his Glad, if he did 1101 C 011.• fess the crime lie had committed. The Judge, evidently affected, still wished am! urged the Prisoiter to accept the advantages which a trial might possibly attard ; and, after a good deal of very anxious entreaty, he at Length consented, saying, " Let it be so ; although 1 have committed the crime, perhaps the great God may yet. in cave I should be acquitted, ottani me an op. poriumty to atone for it." He was accordingly put upon his trial. -- Coiling was then sworn.—Fle said hr was carrying tobacco fur hire on the night of the mur der, for the deceased, Wallace; that Gilroy mowed by them and came behind Wallace, and struck him three blows with the sliuft of a spade on the bead, which rendered him speechless. Witness did not see the blows, but whet, Wallace screeched he looked back, and Gilroy said to wanes., " You sad 1 ate in part." Witness said he bad nothing to do *ids it. Prisoner took home the tobacco, and witness did not strive to take it from him. The Prisoner was asked if he hid any quest' to put to the witness, and lie replied, that he had no questions, nor any thug to say for the purpose of savotig his life ; but observed, that the witness did not tell the truth, that Wallace would nut be killed but for him ; that he (Prisoner) gave hint but one blow, and that one a ent through his heart ; that wittiest. then said the bovines% was not done at all, mud that if he (Prisoner) did not finish it, the witsiess a amid, and thereupon gave him the two other blows. Tile Jury, after a very short consultation, return ed a verdict of—Guilty.

Before Baron WOOD cued a Special Jury. TUESDAY, JULY V., BEAUMONT V. FIELD. This cause, which is of the greatest itnportauce to the parties, came on for trial this morning. Nllle Special Jurors were in attendance, Gentlemen of the highest respectability in the county, Sir Francia I Lindley Wood, Bart. was the Foreman. The unit occupied the whole day, and we shall endeavour to present a clear view of the case without 'taring lino details, which were extremely tedious, and in teresting only to the parties. The Plaintiffs in the cause are Colonel and Mrs. Beaumont of Brettuts Hall, in the West Riding, the real Defendants are Messrs. Jaratt, Dawson. and Hardy, of the Low Moor Iron-works near Bradford, the person whose mane is on the record as the Defendant being merely the agent of the (mulberry. Previous to the year 1789, these Gen tlemen were engaged in some iron-works at Wib.ey Low Moor, and being desirous of purchasing the coals under some farms then belonging to Sir Thos. Blackett, they entered into a treaty with him for this purpose, and in the month of December, in the same year entered into a treaty with him for the purchase of the coal wider certain farms, which agreement was carried into effect by a grant execu ted in July, in the following year. This griv.t c ,n --tained several farms not enumerated in the article drawn up the preceding year, and was understood by the parties us including all the coal under all the farms and lands of Sir Thomas Blackett in that neighbourhood; among these farms was one which had formerly been known by the name of Slack veal farm, but which having been for several gene rations in the possession of the family of the Kel lett's, became afterwards known by the name of Kellett's farm. It had anciently been occupied as our farm ; but in the year 1773 it had become the subject of two separate leases, one of which was grained to -- Kellett, and the other to -- Kel lett ; these leases were executed the same day. This farm or these farms were clearly understood by this parties to have been included in the grant, and the Defendants sunk pits, erected engines, and openly exercised acts of ownership for a series of years, with out any remonstrance or objection of any kind from either Colonel Beaumont or his Lady, or any of their stewards or agents, until a short time pre vious to the conitnencement of the present suit.— The grant enumerates the names of the tenant* under whose farms or lauds the coals granted were situate, and among others occur the following —" The lands now in the occupation of Widow Kellett and Son ;" these words do not contain the description of any property or occupation existing at the time this grant was made, one widow Kellett having died about a year and a half previous to its execution, having her son James upou the harm, tie d the other widow Kellett living ui on the coot;. goons farm. On the part of the Plaintiff it was t•ontended, that though the words in the grant did not strictly apply to any existing occupation, yet, as they most mean something, the farm which li4tl recently been occupied by the widow Kellett, whose son James had lived with her, was the farm meant, and that, as this would satisfy the words of the grant, it could not be extended to the other farm, whatever might have been the intention of the party at the time the grant was executed ; 111141 that, therefore, as the Defendant* had got coal upon, or rather under the other farm, not included in the gram. they were trespasser., On the pert of the Defendosita it was insisted, that as the words .1 IVidow Kellett and Sou" did not suit any state of the property then existing, they ought to Le expl.iined by the known oittentlour of the pewit's and the prohibildies of the case, and evidence was given of this ititesitiou, and also to s.hew that the premises bad on former years been occupied by the Kellett* as a single farm.
