We have the pleasure of laying before our rea.lers :he fol lowing statement *hewing th•• rev•ewt of European and Na tive s hipping to the port of Singapore, for the purposes of trade or refreshment, from the end of December, bird, to gbe beginning of January, Is 2. The number of port clearances grant.ll to European acs ,eh anring this period, amounted to vos. Of these 47 cleared out fur Ilimhrstan- 1 . 2 for Malaee•a and Pinang— at) for Chins-9 for Went Dritain— t for Manilla-3 for 'fism-4 for Trioganu and Kalatitati-5 for Borneo--9 for Java—ti for Sumatra—•l I for Romeo, and I for New South /Voice . .. The tonnage of these vessels an ... i.:ed to up surd, o f ;300 tors, but as must be evident einotgh from the nature and situation of the place, many of the vessels put in for the ronctsdritee of wooding and W.:tiering o nly_ ethers a;ain traded to a small extent—some took in a large portion of their C.tritOCS, and a few the whole amount of the ladies : The plale indeed is ao conveniently situated, from the facility of ingress and e6ri ss, that alines! every ship that passes through the Straits of Mithee,a, touches, it' for no other view Man to obtain inelomation. Indeed out of 421 work that passel and rcmissoil the Straits of Malacca during the year IS•G3, we think that not more than six or seven passed on without touching, and the se were chiefly Pitch men of war. The next moat important ).ranch of trade is probably that of the Chinese Junks of Canton and Vokien. In 1523 these amounted to rix in nuenh.r. in all alsont 3.1. , 00 tons. 'These• Junks import and export ctimptete cargoes to an d from Singapore only. lite native e;-aile from Siam atoolintrel in 1823 to 94 Junks, which may be considered equal to I 1,000 tents. The greater number of there import full cargoes, and carry away on equivalent. A few have traded previously at the port of Java and Pinang, and touch at Singapore to make up their cargoes. The native trade with Coehin-China during the came pe riod amounted to 17 Junks, and to about 4,000 tons. The whole number or these• also (with the use:•ptiot' of a very few to Malacca an'l Pinang) trade direct with Singapore alone. The trade of the Indian Islanders with Singapore may be divided into the following clasres—That of the Bugis— of the Borman:— :be Setnattans, and that of the Malayans in our immuliatv thighhourlimil. The whole of the port clearances throughout the year on account of all of these , ed to 1.30, and in this enumeration, the same re' amounted to , and in this c.. kis are of necessity frequently included between this port and every place withln the Straits of A:alacca ; frequent in- Lreourse is kt pt up throushont the Near, and there is, for example. a class of vessels--the Pram Pitkot—which often males three voyages a month between Singapore and the Patch settlement of Rhin, about tiO miles distant. The most important branch of the trade of the Indian Archipe lago, is that of the Hugh, who, frem their distance, and the niture of the Nlonstions, make but on, voyage throughout the year. In I 523 the Iltigis prahus of the ditlisent coun tries they inhabit, which trade to Singapore, were not less than so in numb( r, amounting to nearty 3,000 tons. The trade with the state of llortivo Proper is another considerable ditanch of the Island trade which is worth particularising. It nay amount to &ham 25 large prahus, or to a tonnage of shout 1.300 tons. The whole of the native node of the Arehlpelago to Singapore. taken together, exclusive of the ephemeral trade of our immediate vicinity, and of the Straits of Malacca, which is scarcely capable of any estimate which would nut mislead, may be reckoned at 4,500 tons an nually. . _ . . 1 . 1;e remit of these ilitlltent data show that the whole amount of shipping and vess , ..la of all description a touching E Singapore for the purpo , e of trade, or for the conve nience of wooding, wat-ring, and reresliing during the - - ;ear 1!•g2::, amotintril to but little short of 100,000 tuns. Our distant readers may he interested to know that the wh'.eli at present atrords these advainages was, down to the year ISIS, a haunt of pirates; that uo Ft:repeat' or :wive vista ever visit••d it, mid that as late as thr year 1.31,0, the boats of his :11:.j..:st's frigate Greyhound cutout and r‘capturol, froni one of the moat secure spots of the presant hrhour, an European vefs,...l, which had i'aner. into the Lauds of the pirates in question. We arc concerned to ham tint the pirates have again trade their appmeonce in our neighlsourhood. The i;booncr Little Macqueen, en her voyage from Singspore to Batavia, fell with a piratical rralin off the second in the Straits of Banco. The strength of a large rah, well armed, and paling shout GO oars, was so much siiee'sor to any r. a.statice which a small vessel, of not more ti.en is tons, with few bands, could offer, that seeking in flight presented the only means of escape. The Prat: nateediately gave clues:, and making fast up with while dose bottled, they were obliged to heal :way before the wind and return to Singapore. The •Rette:•, in returning, encountered a strong hand of Onus anchor in the straits of Dryar. She unrortunately got upon a reef, in emit avowing to avoid then, being observtel by the pirates, the whole squadron .isayth..tely weird:et' anchor, and prepared for attack, no doubt, sun , of their prize, now incapable of tistpng.

AND CO. A partial meeting of the creditors of the store firm was alarmed last night a. the Freentasons"ravern, for the pulmse of consider ing the expediency of electing Assignees under the new eminiis 'ion issued :.gains: that house, who might he remorml front any suspicion of an improper influence on the part of the bankrupts, in the event of t:te tint Connuiasion's being deelarill insalid, of the prob,bi;ity of which there appears to be a very g,.:.ersl under stood imt. .• The wetting was summoned for six o'clock prreis..le ; a: about ; half past ,Ix., then: being then between forty and fine . of the ere. ditors assembled, a Gentleman proposed that Mr. Parkins be called ' to the chair. This motion having been duly seem:lied, the worthy Ex•Sheritf, aft.er exhibiting a coyness, for which he is rot gene rally reniath.dolc. Leaded to the wishes of the company, and was regularly installed in Mr. Ks mire. of the firm of Knight and Fyson, then rose, for the purpose of explaining to the meeting the exert situation in which i,•.: creditors a. re placed. He de-ired that it might be re collected that the docket lard been struck agaitist the firm by Mr. Scott, a gentleman highly respectable it was true, hut intimately connected. nay, related, to one of respectable, partners; this, therefore, was a circumstance well calenlated to excite sustionon. Mr. Scott had taken care that he would not be one of the si-igeees, but then it had been so contrived, that his partner, Mr. Ilar:. who, in re ality, was no creditor of the estate, should be ore, which was virtually the same as if Mr. Scott had taken on biaiself the office; ' but then Mr. Hare, not being himself a creditor, could not be I supposed to feel such an interest in the concerns of the creditors as ought to be looLd for front every person tilling faith an office as Eulogistic; he thought that 31r. Scutt must have liad some motive for acting in the manner that he had done. Another tissigr.:e was Mr. Holland, who was. bona ,pc, no creditor, but merely repre sented a society, whose claims, if common sinati.in had been be. stowed on them before the Commissioners, lie was convinced would never have been admitted. These claims amounted to no less a sum than 47,000/. The creditors shonld Coll •;.1..t. haw much the admission of such a sum would deteriorate front their divided ; and all this arose from the claims not bring properly opposed. ; The next assignee was Mr. Knight, a genthnian iu every respect pet-wetly unexceptionable. and one who, he !tad ro doubt, would do every thing in his power to protect the inter:- is of the creditors; but still it was not right that their interests should lie e .nfieled to one per.on, for he looked upon Mr. Knight ai tl or!). person of the three who could hr considered as repreieniing thou; as Ale. Holland only repreeented the intense. of the European $ icirty. and Mr. Hare not being a creditor,only represented the interests of his partner, Mr. Scott. These assignees were unduly thrust upon •hr creditors, and they ought for their own sakes to take the matter He had ob. served that Mr. Soy-iour was the Attorney to the to w commission : Mr. Seymour was a very respectable than, hut in this instance he had placed himself in such a situation, that lie wiot prevented from discharging his duty to the creditors; and he had fri hesitation in saying, that he was sure that his wish was (in the r:•^:3 of any un. toward ciratuistance invalidating the first commission) to secure I the reelection of the sante assignees on the second. Mr. Knight car cloiled by calling on every gentleman pre-ent use his inter est to tirt(at .1;01 - tin object, and to procure for the creditors such assignees as should insure every thing being done for their benefit._ FllO5l stigzested, that it would be as well if the creditors present were to be informed ut whoa,: inrimiic." the meeting had been "ravened. and from whom the requiaition had emanated. and why at had not been dote by public advertisement, of by a sir. cular letter to a select few. 31r. H 74:lit ga said, that although he cutill not see the tele- Taney of such a tplestion, yet he would r..lswer it by admitting that he was one the foremost in doing. it; he had been outweighed and buret. thorn by th: intl;:enee of the bmlers at Uttii.l4:l, in the thoica ui the assign.:es he was unfortursitly a creidter to a large amount. and he did hot consider that the i%t :r.sts i t the creditors could be rattly attended to by the selevion tLat bid bun made; he. tiler:I:1:e, sincerely hoped that an °pp...nullity would be ofb.,e4 of cm ::ding it. Mr. It tLE ICU of opinion that it was notch better to convene a meeting for the present purpose by circular lever.' to the creditors. thin by advi iv:semen*: as, it the latter method hid 11:04 pursued, the room would have been tilled by rople c ho s etc not tvolitors. A Gentleman said that lie heard that the pnescrt assi.mees were indetiti:vihle in their exertions in untaytting eo:m dimwit affairs sit th, Bark ; if such was the case. he 4141 coniidcr that the imeic , tl of the ertiliturs could be entrusted to better hands. ....... Mr. If:II:LYMAN was pertectly satisfied with the exertions and integrity of the won nt assignees; he cottli corroborate the riser. tion of the last gentleman as to the pains they were taking, as he spoke from his own knowledge, when lir said that they et: engaged ss cry day from nine till twelve in the ..fain of the Hank. . . . 31r. atlvsow also e xpressed his convic:ion that the present assigrecs woftud Mctl, and that the er:dbors would I.fri the Intuit or their exerions. in the dividends they would procure ;hem. After some twitter ile-uiltory conversation. it tva. resolved that a Committee should be appointed to consider of what seas expedient to be doile. and that a General Meeting of the Creibuits should be convened by public advertisement. at a future day. A curious circumstance transpired on 'nines,lay at the meeting of the creeiitors of Nlessrs. Marsh :ind San, Navy Agents, Scotland-vazd. This Na.:y Agency concern, taken by itself, would appear to have ik`VII a flourishing one, the assets anaiuntine to 0,2121. His. Gd., and the debts only to Vti,lEst. 16s. std., leaving a balance of assets of tt 4a. But Mr. Marsh, s. n. to whom the concern exclusively belonged (the son. according to the statement given, never having inv..sted in it 44,utioi. three per cents, without which he was not to be considered a painter. and having from the first continued to act as a managing clerk, on a salary of 600/. per ann.), had avldled himself of it, to draw from the Ilerners-street bank 73.5431. on an account opened in the name of his son, but which was entirely his own. Such was the representation given at this meeting. It was stated that the herners-street bank held assets of the navy agency C.I/Verll in pledge, to the amount of 30,0001., as a securi:y for the advance. Mr.. FAcNrctsioy.—On Thursday Mrs. Fauntleroy was admitted to an interview with her unfortunate hus band. She was accompanied by her son, and the meeting, as might be capected, was most affecting. Whatever ilif ft.rences may have existed between them, all was buried in oblivion. and mutual fotgiveneas, and they parted with the strongest demonstrations of affection. interrupted only by ebullitions of sorrow, too overpowtring fur restraint. Mr. Fauntleroy evinces great affection for his son, who has more than once visited him during his confinement. On • recent occasion he took a favourite seal from his watch, and presented it to the boy, with that solemn atijutation of remembrance which probably no length of Mile will erase from a mind of sensibility. Mr. F. hail for two or three ilsys been somewhat indisposed, snil tic inter% icw with Mrs. F. was succeeded by great weakness amid depression. Mr. F. lia4, however, now regained that tranquil equani mity of mind which has hitherto given such consolation to his blends.

LAW INTRLLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, FRIDAY, Nov. 12. IN THE MA or RTI.EII, A AAAAA OPT. The LORD CHASCELLon 'ttted that he held in his hand a pe tition from a person of the name of Wattera„ praying that he would decree that certain costs, comiected with the above bankruptcy *Mudd be paid out of the estate Now it had happened that there hail been no less than ten p:wititms presented to hint with 'der. met to that bankruptcy, the costs of the whole of which had been paid by the creditors. It was impossible for him, or thr any man, to carry in his head all the various representations that ran through so many petition,. prcsenteil, as they were. at different periods ; he thought he haul already decreed the Costa alluded to in the petition. Mr. AC:AR said that he had been concerned in the ruse, butt that he could not then charge his memory with what had been dole, ►s he hail nut the papers then with him: but, perhaps his Lord ship would allow the matter to stand over, and to be spoken to someday nest week. Mr. llvai.n rctiunted that the petitinn might be handed to him, as th o se w hem he represented had received no notice h i it, The Isott n CAAvctor.t.om said, that in his opinion there was Litt one mode which a Judge ought to fellow, and that was, to he guided in his judgment by nothing but what appeared on the record. He acted on this principle with all 'he ability and ast.itluity of which he was capable ; and he firmly believed, that if he had swerved from it, he should often have given an eetate to A, which belonged to lS ; and he knew very well that the dread which suitors in that Court bail of having the Record thoroughly instal pled, had elms induced a compromise between the parties. THE MATTER 07 , 1/IL4I.ET, A 11ARKRI.: - PT. Mr. HEALD presented a petition fio•n the es..ignites of the above bankrupt, praying the Court to grant an injwietion to restrain the father and brother of the bankrupt from proceeding to sell a farm which had been the property of the bankrupt, but which they claimed hr virtue of a bill of sale which had been matte to them by the benkrnpt, in consideration of a debt of 2,Mt01. said to he due from him to them. The bankrupt had remained in possession of the property alive the period of the bankruptcy, and when the messenger to the Commission went down to demand possession of it in the name of the assignee.. he found the door of the house fast, and the bankrupt within, declaring that he would Mow out the brains of any man whit attempted to molest his property. !infre quently, however. the father ant! hrother came forward with their bill of vale, and were now proceeding with the pale of the pre mises ; it was to prevent this from taking place that he now applied tier An injunction. The LORD Citastenni.on said that the matter was not within his jurisdiction, unless the father and brother had praved under the Cotnitiisaion, he cou'd grant no injunction as against them; they could only be reached by Mini; a bill against them. Mr. fiat n requested that he might he allowed to mention it again, in the meanwhile he would consult with his client. EN-PARTE WRIGHT. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL applied for an injUnction to re atriin a person of the name of /,o e. from receiving any debts on the aceouut of Wright and Cole who had been In partnership as attornies. The petit iorer stated that he had been deniecritecesa to the chambers in which 3lr. Cole was carrying on his practice, and •hich chambers were ac:ually the properly of 21Ir. V. right. The Luau Citavcri.l.On did not see how he could interfere, unless the petitioner also stated that 31r. Cok was receiving the debts, and applying them to his own separate use. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL replied that wan the east. The lair o CHANCELLOR stogiorsted that it would be better that • short affidavit should be made, detailing some specific fact. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that should be done. IN Tt'w MATT FI: or SIR GREGORY P. TURNER. Mr. Putt-11.1)11,Hr applied on behalf of the Committee of Sir G. I'. Turner, against whom an inquisition of lunacy had ben found, fur an authority from his Lordship to defend an action that had been brought against the lunatic ender the following cireann. stone-s :— ln July, lii" 3, Sir O. P. Turner. who was then in the King's Bench prison, had become acquainted with a person of the newt: of Toinkins, in whom he had given his acceptance for 4081., payable at six monms after date. The bill was dated in August, Itt t, and the Jury, by their inquisition in December, 1823, had found that Sir P. Turner had been in an unsound state of mind front the Ist of July. 1023, a month before the date of the bill in question. It ilia not appear that any valuable consideration had been given for the bill, and when it became due it wu of course not paid. An action hail been commenced against Sir IL P. Turner, which his Committe: were then defcndirg; and such was the despatch of the law proceedings, that they were obliged to plead before they had an mtportunity of securing the protection of this Curt in so doing. They had felt i: necesavy to secure such protection, as Sir Gregme P:.;,-e Turner had traversed the inquisi tion. although as yet M. had taken no further steps.

VICE-CIIANCLLLOW:i. COURT, FRIDAY, Nor. 12. Ills HOVOUn WWI occupied the whole of the day in Leming arguments in cases of no public importance. COLItT OF KING'S BENCH, FuID►C, Nov. 12. At the sitting of the Court this morning, considerable time was consumed in calling over the names of the teseri.l Crand .turns. Of the Middlesex .turns there ran a full attendance; on vim; over the other panne!, but fourteen answered to their names; to these the Court intimated, that should they igrce on what day to enter on business, care should lie taken that those now absent be in the meantime again summoned. IVednrulay was then appointed. Of the abaentees, many who hati been defaulters on former occasions were severally (wed in the sum of :Ml and the others 20!. each. Mr. Jitstice Itavt.r. v then proceed :Al to charge the Middlesex Jury to the folios; iag Wert:— Gen:l.:men of the I /tithundreds.—l have observed with consider able satisfaction the numerous attendance on your part. and indeed it is matter of general observation that you, who reside at a dis tance, and have a long way to come. are more regular than those living nearer, so su always to ensure the presence of a greater number than twenty-three, which ie what the law rsquires. tlemen, I am not aware that any case of difficulty is to come be fore you ; and, indeed, from your having performed this service so frequently, and from the great mass of information dispersed throurh you. and I am happy to say, through the entire country, any advice from nie must he almost unnecestary Any difficulty that may arise., the officer wilt soh if not, the i'outt will atria:. s feel happy in rendering any assistance in its power. Tht Jury then retired. BENOVTII ADAMS. Mr. niAZ.:II moved fora rule to chew cause why the verdict had in this ease tur plaintitf, with .100/. damages, stiouid not be set aside. and a new trial (;ranted. on the following grounds: First, misdirection of the Learned Judge t Baron liarrow) before whom it was tried: second, chiuumluct of one of the Jury ; third. excessive damages. It appeared this wet an action or trespass, brought by the plaintiff against the defendant, for entering his close, and lop ping census trees therein growing. To this defendant replied, that the boughs in question were overleinging his premises. and obstructing the Frowtit of his corn. Oti the other side it was all.ged. that no injuiy was done; that with regard to the bought there was not any overhanging, and with regard to the others, that they were neertistogiog with lease and licence of defeml ant. The misdirection complained of was, that Baron Ostrow refused to give his opinion as to the leicahty of defendant's cutting the overha..,,big boughs. iVith regard to excessive da mages, it was turd, that the value of the trees, trunk and all, did not exceed GU; that the brancht !ovoid off were left on the plaintiff's premises. and were by his Remota talen away; that about two years ago when both parties were friends, leave was given to do a similar act to that for Whlcii tiVliap4 were now sought. arol that, therefore, it se 0 s likely that defendant's conduct was nut malicious, but arose trout a 'instal:co conception of his own right, or of the Mrmer have. The other ground for the present ap plication was, that the Foreman of the Jury. bruise evidence was gone into, was over; lead by a Juror of . the mime rew. to say, '• We'll teach those ‘1 . ..4t 110i:ins better eondoct ; they shan't come here to injure our property. - This evidently alluded to fentlant. who was a West Indian.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FRIDAY, NOT. 11. ro.tv:s r. THE Ii4NK or EWGI.VSP. Our readers cannot fail to recollect that that important MC VMS tried at Guildhall—tint the Jtiry lotted a special verdict—ard that the case wan subacquently argued before the Cotmt of Coninogi Pleas. Since that period, however, the present Chief Justice ar , l. Jitstne (hzel r have taken flick scatv iu thiv Court, and the! wiArel to hear the argument dr my., before they proLocaued • judgan nt. This day Mr. Sergeant V.v num AV was heard tID beher e the plaintiff. Ile commenced by stroing, that the appointment of eta Chief Juvtice and Mr. Justice t;a:relee to Witt, in this Court tainted a re-hearing of this care. The ohjeet rf tier !tank of Ergland w..* to prevent the plaintiff' from retorericg o ?r the vtdi rct ; and they . _ objected to pa; principally because 'le plaintiff hail knows tbat torgery was committed on the Bank ; whereas elm plaintitFinsisted mum Ter .Teeing. because the Bank. out he insis:nd, mast hove known, it they had used due diligeoce. that his name had been forged to these instruments, under which a concidtrab:e transfer of stock bad taken ;dace. It was said that in .larch IS.tl the plalnit . was aware 01 the forgery, and that he concealed it till the 21/:it of the tfemenihir following ; and it could not be denied that the Bloc had no evidence of his adoption or that forgery. but by :he 'lisp. tOn of such con•es/meat. No doubt the Court, in TB:cc:leg a seated argument. most have been influenced, net only by the real state of the tact. in the ease. but by the momentous respersibility in which the Bark was involved- rather than by any difficulty in the application of the law to the question. The question was one of general concern. Every indisiew.:, whether naive or foceigner. who had money in our Muds, lens interested in it ; and if the de cision in this case were adverse to the plaintitl; they must feel their property endangered in proportion to the vast responsibility of the Bank. In fact when looking at the point more paricularly to be decided, he did not kn ow in what decided eases the plaintiff's tight to recover could be imyeaebed. It *mild be right here to state. that the form of the action was in Toit, fur a breech of duty in the Bank transferring tot e plaintiff's stock without his anthority. But suppose the Court to be of opinion that the stock of the Vilna was not so t It:Wryer% still he had an indisputable right of Dettoti against the Bank for refusing to pay the dividends uzru!rg On that stock. The CHIF:r stared in .ht sc.,;„ni and fourth count"! of t:Je 4.l,:claration.

The duty of the Bank, as to transfers of stock, was regulated by vsrions Acts of Parliament, agreeing as to their particular dory in that rase. The plainefirwas car.fesseilly the pmpti.tor of stock, and the Bank were milli& d from raising the question of what interest palmed to him in h.s or i :z i ns i Ira ..far, Ai the time this acti.in cinnmenced, they ad niittcd the plaintiff - s right to a sum of I 0:. on rock. and 1751. in long annuities. no wit. h he had received the dividend. At the outset the Bank acknowlalge him to be a proptietor of stock to a large amount ; amid in COIIIIIIIOII with every other stock-holder, 1.4 Lad a decided right to this stock. What then were the duties of tie defendatits, and who wire dill? They w::re a great nubh.; bode—the agents of the public—et the phintifY, as one et tEs: public; and they received a reuniaryconsidratiori fur their agency.
