It was rather singular than the representatives of Mr. Parga should be left in doubt as to Air. P. having, advanced money to the defendant to purchase pictures. His (Mr. Denman's) opinion was, that Mr. Collier was the owner of the pictures, anti that Mr. Pero onty undertook to do the set vice of a friend in getting them insured. It was also a little re markahle that, in the will of Mr. Parga, there was no bequest of ! pictures Many kind, nor were pictures once mentioned. It had been insinuated that a certain document had disappeared, which ' ought to be in the cos - raly of the testator, and that 111 r. Collier was possession of his papers at the time of his death. This was very iinfuir. when the only document on which the plaintiffs rested their rave was toilful in the defendant's possession. But, in point of fact, Mr. Quiros was present at the time of Mr. Parga's death, and he did not wait on hour after that event before he possessed himself of every paper, and put them under seal. The absence, there tire, of that separate account bee:rowan imi.ortant tact in the case, because it afiindttl a strong presumption that no such document had ever exi,octi. It was ttue, Mr. Collier hail expected that some advance would have been niade•bn account of these pictures by Mr. Parga, as mortgagee, but no advance was ever mode. Not only had Mr. Perim always treated these pictures as Mr. Collier's, often praising him for his industry,and wishing hint success on his dia. posal of them, but he actually applied to persons to advance money upon them, stating that he was getting extremely ir,firm, and that he should therefore dr dine to advance the money which he had led Mr. Collier to expect lie would do. The Learned Counsel here detailed the nature of the documentary and o her evidence he should adduce, and corcluded 11 observing th.d, after he had bid them before the Jury, he should feel himself entiolni to their verdict. The bill oh lading of the pictures was then put in and read. It was intlor<ed by Don J. Pugs, that all charges were to be paid by Mr. Collier. • The poTcy of iirunnee effected on the pictures far 2,5001. was then read ; also a memorandum, Mimed by Purge, to the following effect :—" I tied ire, that in the collection of pictures belonging' to Don Juan Collier, which have been embarked in my name, on hoard the English brig Brilliant, one, numbered 18, is inclu ded, belonging to Senor De Ponttl which I engage to recount for to him, or for its proceeds, on his paying me the sum which I ad vanced for Its insurance in the aunt of 2001." James Lerida, a clerk in the London Docks, produced an order of transfer, signed by Parga, directing the pictures to be delivered over to Mr. Culler. and on which transfer was an assignment or order signed by Collier, directing the pictures to be delivered over to Ale. Peter Chatman. Nine of the pictures were delivered op in pursuance of this order, and the remainder detained to await the issue of this trial. Mr. Peter Charman was thekealled. bat was objected to by the Attorney-General as an incompetent witness, he having an interest in the result of the cause. The LOUD Cotta' JUST ICE held the ohj zebra to be rod. Mrs. Ratcliffe, who had formerly lived as servant with Mr. Parga and Ale. Collier, was then examined, who stated that idle remem bered several pictures being brought to their house at Brommon, in the cleaning and varnishing of which Air. Collier devoted the whole of his time. They were always considered to be the mo petty of Mr. Culler, and she had often heard Mr. Parga say that they were, and that he hoped Mr. Collier would sell them well. She was present at the death of Mr. Parga, and so was Mr. Quiros, who immediately after that event put all the property and papers under seal. This witness was eross.exatnlned as to a bundle of papers and the contents of an old trunk, but nothing wu elicited that at all tended to further the case of either party. Mr. a surgeon, stated that Ire'bsd visited M. Collier, who had invited him to go and look at Ms (Mr. Collier's) pictures in the room below. This was said in ibe bearing of Ar. Parga, who made no remark upon it. There were about nine pictures in the room. • • --- The Loin Cetenr JUST len—fint it does not appaor that those pictures were any of the pictures now claimed by the plaintiff. Mr. CON HON SZESZAIIT said that on the bill of ladieg nine pictures were stated to I ave been delivered to Mr. ()tiller. The LORD Curse Jost-Ica—Yes, but I cannot connect them with thou seen II the w mesa. Several levet% written by i)nn Parga, in which he speaks of Mr. Collier as a person having an interest in the pictures, were need pat in and recd. This dotted the defence. Th. ArronxEY-Oxitnnae, in his adieus to the jury in re ply, said, that when he came to comment prow the evidence offered be the defendant, Ire thought they would find every part of it reconcileable with what he had originally eta' ea to them in his opening Wren'. Certainly the defendant had a great advantage over the plaintiffa, because Mr. l'arga was au more; and they therefore hat no means of explaining the nature of the transactions between the defendant and, the testator. But it was perfectly com petent for Mr. Collier to !Ave called witnesses to give the history of these pictures. and to skew that they were purchased with his own money. and that they were collected by him in Spain, for the pur write of being embarked to this country. These anirs had been taken into the Court of Chancery, and he might have obtained a commission for the examination of witnesses in Spaini• and might have unfairied all the particulars before the Jury. Ile must have known . (trim whom he purchased .all these pictures ; but he had thought proper to leave the Jury totally in the dark, and had rested his case entirely upon these docu ments, which were nil reconeiieable with the plaintiff's statement. He had not shewn that he had become possessed of any property since 1820, when lie was proved to be insolvent. Every act relat. ing to these pictures bad been done by Mr. Parga as if the property was his own. The only explanation given of this, and which was an idle one, wax, that the transfer from Collier to Parga was made to enable the latter to effect an insurance. Such an explanation was perfectly nugatory. lle (the Attorney-General) had no doubt that the pictures were originally purchased with the intention, that if any profit should accrue or. tl,eir sale, that profit should lee shared by Mr. Collier on account of his skill and labour employed about them, and dun:fore they were called his pictures. If the Jury took this, they would find it a k-y to the whole transaction. The Learned Counsel then commented tenon the evidence adduced by the defendant, in the course of which he requested the will of Mr. Parga to be read (it having been omitted in the former part of the trial), which being done, he argued that' no inference could be drawn from the circumstance of there being no speciliz mention made of pi :tures in the will, lots midi as that the whole of the testator's property was disposed of under a general clause, with. out any kind of troperty being particularly enumerated. Consi dering all the evidence, therefore, he thought it impossible to inter that the pictures were the property of Mr. Collier ; and if so, the pleltuiff was entitled to a verdict. The Loan CHIEF .11:11IICE recapitulated the evidence to the Jury, who in a few minutes returned a verdict for the plaintiff. V 1,.4rr INTELT. MEATH. COURT OF CFIANO . ERI, 11'EtfwItenar, JOLT I.

CuAstor or EDIBEZZIX MEN T.—During the last week there were several private examinations taken at this office, before Allan r S. Laing, Esq. concerning the embezzlement of various sums of money by a confidential agent of a public Society, which has at length terminated by the abandonment of the prosecution, and the consequent release of the implicated person. As some very vague and obscure allusion has been already made to this transaction, through the nee hum of one of the Sunday Papers, calculated per haps to affix unjust suspicion on the officers of other Associations, it may be as well to state the facts generally, though of course we cannot pretend to give a detailed account of the investigation, all the hearings being conducted so completely au erred, as to exclude not only the gentlemen attending for the public press, but even the officers of the establishment. The following, however, may be re lied on, having come to us through Sr authentic source. William Iraiker, late Assistant Manager of the Mendicity So was brought up in custody of one of the officers of Hatton garden, charged with fraudulently embezzliog various aunts of money to the amount of WO/. and upwards, entrusted to ilia charge, for and on account of the Institution. The prit.erter, we understand, was formerly an officer in the army, ant soon after the institution of the Mentlicity Society, he was most respectably recommended to the Managers, as a person mialified to fill any situation wherein ability and integrity were the essential requisites. lie was, therefore, appointed Assis tant Manager, with a very liberal salary ; and it is but right to say, I that fusseverall years he discharged the various and often arduous duties of his office with credit to himself and to the entire satisfac tion of the Board of Management. However, on a recent audit, some deficiencies appeared in his accounts, for which, it seems, he could adduce no satisfactory cause; and this of course led to a more severe scrutiny, from whence it was discovered that the un fortunate young man was in arrear to the amount of MIL or up wards, and that the several sums included therein had been received by hint in aid of the Society's funds, but bad not been accounted for in the regular way. Ile made, we are informed, a direct offer of the money deficient, bot the Managers felt that they would not be in the performance of their duty to the public and to the ends of justice, unless they brought the matter before a Magistrate in the regular way; and accordingly, 'on the information of the Hon. Charles Short, acting as one of the Board of Management, a war rant was obtained for Mr. Walker); apprehension on the above charge, and he was hrought to this office on Friday week. The case was briAy at-rted on that day, and the prisoner remanded for another examination on Wednesday. when the Hon. Mr. C. Shore and Mr. Tooke (the Barrister) attended on behalf of the Mendicity Society. The charge of embezzlement was again made, and the par ticulars detailed, but doubts arose as to the possibility of sustaining a prosecution, the actual right of property not having been shewn to lie in any particular individual, arid, ()femme, only a joint pos session could be claimed by each memberor subscriber to the So ciety at large. Mr. Walker, who was not attended on the examination by any professional adviser, teemed to be aware of this fact, but did not at. tempt to take any advantage of it, still offering to make good the deficiencies, if lie was allowed so to do. He was, however, again remanded until Saturday morning, when the parties attended, and, after a short consultation, the prosecution was abandoned, and the prisoner immediately discharged from custody, with fin understand ing (hat he should make good the whole of the defieienciegproved against hint. ft may be right to add. that the Society, in consideration of Mr. Walker's past services and high character, were extremely reluc tant to press the case to a conviction. SLAVE ()EALING. Mr. 7'. lamer, late Captain of the mrchant ship Malta, of Liverpool, employed in the African trade, has undergone an ex amination at Deptford, anti is now in the (louse of Correction, Coldbatbsfields, under Sir R. Birnie'a warrant of commitment, on a charge of having sold fur slave*, four girls, natives of Africa, who had been placed with him as homages, en security for the perform ance of certain contracts entered into berreen him and two of the native Chiefs. The witnesses against the accused were the mate and tome of the crew of the Malta, and from their statement the following facto ' , mewed ;--I't is well known that it is the prac tice in trading with the Africans, to barter goads of European manufacture for gold dust, and other merchandize . • but such is the feeling of distrust which the natives entertain of Europeans, that they seldom bring their goods on board of a ship, until they have first got securely on shore the commodities which they are to purchase, *so that it becomes necessary that the Captain should have some pledge for the fulfilment of the contract on the part of the African, or it is more than probable that lie would never see his goods or his customer again. The security almost tinifbmi'y given, la the leaving on board the European vessel. as hostages, some of the members of the African's family, amongst ivhom are generally some of his numerous wives. When the Malta, on her last voyage, was lying on that part of the coast of Africa. near the Island of St. John, Captain Young bartered, amongst other things with a Chief, called Antonio Jo, who possessed himself of a great quantity of beads, knives, bars of iron, and other things equally valuable, toe which he was to send on board, by a certain day, a quantity of gold dust, Ivory, and paint oil, and, by way of se curity. he left four of his wives, the eldest of whom was about 16 years of age, and the youngest not more than thirteen. In the regular course of time Antodia Jo performed his contract, and de manded his wives ; but Captain Young refused at that time to give them up, alleging that another Chief, with whom he had dealt, had not performed his contract. This matter was proceeding some days, during which (so the witnesses swear) Captain Young made each of the Chief's wives, in her turn, his bedfellow, and chewed particular partiality for one, a fine young creature, called Noorah. He still persisted in refusing to give up the hostages, and at length a Spanish schooner, having all the external appearance of a slave. vessel, ran into the bay, where the Malta was lying, and soon after wards a boat from her, having on board her Captain, boarded the Malta, and some conversation took place between him and Captain Yotutg, in the course of which the latter ordered Antonio Jo's wives upon deck. acid they were minutely examined by the Spa niard, and Captain Young also pointed out the fineness of their limbs and proportions. The result was, that they were put into the boat, and conveyed on board the Spanish vessel. They all evinced the strongest reluctance to gait the Malta, and cried bit terly when Captain Young communicated to them that they must go. Some hours after the Spaniard's boat came again on board the Malta, with the Mate of the schooner, a man who mold speak English fluently, and he brought with hint two bags filled with dollars, which were counted, and the crew gathered from the con versation, and from what they saw, that there were two or three dollars too many, which were given back to the Mate. The fol lowing day the Spanish Captain sent a present to Captain Young, who returned the compliment during the day by despatching his own boat to the schooner, with a present fur the Spaniard. Some of the Malta's boat's crew, when they got on board the schooner, said they had never overhauled a slave ship, and should like to look at her. The Mate took them below, and they there saw eighty male blacks sitting chained between decks, which were so close to each other, that the poor creatures had not room to sit up right. Upon thedetk were crouched a great many women, and among the rest, the four wives of Antonio Ju. They were not chained, but a man stood over them with a whip. Very soon after the Malta's boat left the schooner, the latter made all sail, and stood out of the bay, and Capt. Young was not long in following the example of the Spaniard, for he ordered the anchor to be weighed and stood to sea. In a few days the Malta was boarded at sea by his Ma jesty's sloop of war Raven, stationed to look after slave.tradera, and the mate of the Malta related to the officer what had occurred near St. John's; in consequence of which the Malta was detained and taken to Sierra Leone, where site wish the cargo was condemned ; and subsequently Capt. Young, after being examined before the Judge Advocate of the Colony, was put on board a transport, and arut to England a prisoner, the crew being also sent as witnesses. On the arrival of the transport in the River, James John Smith, one of the principal' officers of Bow-street, was sent dawn to take Capt. Young into his custody. The officer took the Captain us the Victualling-office at Deptford, where lie nnderwent an examina tion of great lengths before Sir R. Riniie, who went down expressly to hear the case, and the circumstances detailed above wete stated in evidence. In his defence. Captain Youniggiguled the charge, which he de. dared was fabricated sonnet Ilftrby the crew, from feelings of malice, because they had quarrelled with him. Sir R. BinNIE said it was his duty, upon the evidence which had been adduced, to commit Capt. Young to prison, to sweet his trial, and he was accordingly committed to the House of Correction for Middlesex. He will be tried at the Admiralty Sessiona. ' The owners of the Malta, who are merchants of the firm respec tability at Liverpool, inteml to appeal to the High Court of Admi ralty here, against the confiscation of the ship and cargo.

Having to drive home. wards a post-chaise, one of the horses of which was re fractory, the usual struggle took place between stubborn newt and ferocity. The two-legged one of the brutes, find ing that the ordinary methods of producing obedience were unavailing, fastened a quantity of straw between the hind legs of his more respectable antagonist, and set it in a blaze. The driven beast reached home in a dreadful state, the whole of the inside of the thighs, the lower part of the and high up the flanks, being soorchisl into one j horrible sore ; the driving one awaits the punishment which ihe law, or public indignation, will, we doubt not, hurt upon him-4.1i. llered.

At starting the veteran Dick Wetherell. on Fairy, took - the lead at , bustling rate, and soon got into a rattling pace, direly followed by Fe. r :ought, Lingitatt, and Tamar, with the two others at their heels; dairy kept a lead of about two lengths to the distance, when Fearneuglit and Linguist came up, and between these three, with Tamar at hand, every inch of ground was disputed, each alternately taking the lead, until near 'ionic, when Tamar let 100-e, and see tile Lett with difficulty by, a short length. The running between Fe aweigh: and Linguist was tine, nor were the others heel. ) ; placed. Second hest.—Fearnotight made all the running thin race, pressed hard by Linguist and Tamar till close home, when the former woe a finely contested hat by barely hales length. At the conclusion, nt . this heat, and when scarcely two lengths beyond the winning chair, the groom of Captain Seymour (one df the Stewards) came frcnt Vie either side of the ropes, not knowing the horses were so dear to the chair, and uafartunately came De direl contact with Fear. nought. The horse was then going at a tremendous rate, andrai right against the hack rode by the groom, with such violence, that Melt riders and horses were struck down as if by a shot. Neither the gtocin or his horse, or Thomson ('Fearnouglit's jockey) were hurt; but Frernought was rendereehicapuble of running again. I n t h e c.w.ftetion the jockey did not remount his horse and ride in h., w debt. Mr. Coleman, in consequence, claimed the heap; but Cat lain Berkeley, one of the stewards, would not allow it, and s':ort wrangle ensued ; but the Captain was absolute, and the heat wan decided in favour of Fearnought. This event for a chest time threw a slight.gloom over all; but it wan dispersed by de running which followed. Third Heir —Dackery, on Linguist, took the lead, kept it all the way, and won the heat very Cleverly. Tamar having a t r jockey (Wetherell), it was expected would have afforded a fine race ; but his surcingle, at starting, burst, and disengaged tite martingale, which very.much impeded the progress of tie horse, to td at he was easily beaten. Fourth Heat—The event of this procrastinated rare now rested between Linguist and 'fattier, and was won easily by the tanner. The betting on this race was not worth mentioning. Young Scaith rode the Smolensk° colt. _ _ A snitch between Captain Locke's Lit - le Driver and Capta Mrkeley'a Fearnought was nut run.. The Half.bred Stakes did not fill.
