Lira. i i • . . 'li • 1 praised, on his quitting di. premises in autumn last, at 1.8001. Tn January, he took the White Linn public-house, Thames-street, v.di'ch was valued at 2111. lle remained there three months. The business did not answer his expectation., and in consequence, during that period, he contracted debts to the amount of 3001. The stork of spirits which was sent in was to the amount of 9111. ; which was transferred to Gibbs, the landlrrd of the house, who had tbs. trained for rent to the amount of GM., including a half year's rent, which was due at the time he took possession oldie house. Mr. Fenton, an auctioneer, proved that lie distrained for the rent on account of Gibbs the landlord ; that the goods on the pre mises were valued at 44. 10s. ; that the beer was bad and the spirits under proof. A clerk in the einploymetft of M Curry and Co. proved that the gin which had been sent to insolvent's horse, in January and February, was full proof. 111 r. W. Shaw, victualler, proved that the insolvent offered to sell him spirits under the current price. Mr. HEATH observed that the insolvent hal received 4001. in three months, and that he had not accounted for more than the one. tenth of that sum. The Citivr Comatissioxrn said that he thought the insol vent's ewte very unsatisfactory, and he would thcrefme zuljourn the case, to afford the insolvent an opportunity of amending his state ments. The case therefore stands adjourned sine dir. John Fortescue Wright was opposed by Mr. M'Bowal, linen. draper, Burlington arcade, a creditor to the amount of 741. 4s. It appeared in evidence that the opposing creditor was induced to give the insolvent credit far good., in consequence of representa tions made by him that he was entitled to property in right of his father, which was in the hands of* Mr. Alenztes. The goads, which were given to him on the faith of there representations, the insolvent pledged two days after they came into his possession. The ground of opposition was, that the insolvent had made no mention in his schedule of the interest he had in the money in the hands of Mr. Menzies. The CHIEF COMM ISSTONEII said that the insolvent had reason to feel grateful to this opposing creditor for the lenient manner in which he opposed him, as, had he urged the point of his having pledged the goods he had received from him on credit, two days after lie got them into his possession, he woulil have been in a peri lous situation. The insolvent was then discharged. Morgan Lewis, a linen-draper, residing in Bond-strecf, was opposed by Mr. POLLOCK, on the part of Mr. Thomas Lcrwndes, the detaining creditor. It appeared in evidence that the insolvent carried on business in Bond-street ; but, getting into difficulties, he offered a composition of seven shillings in the pound, which was accepted by two-thirds of his creditors. The insolvent. upon the sale of his stock, found that lie could not pay the original composition of seven shillings in the pound, and in consequence made a second offer of five shillings in the pound, which was accepted, and finally paid. From both these arrangements Mr. Lowntles disserr; 11, and opposed the insol vent's discharge, on the ground that he had misapprqniated a sum of 70!. which he had received in payment of a debt due to him by Lord !Alford. The CInEP COMSTISSIONER, not thinking a case was made out against the insdvent, declared him entitled to the benefit of the Act, and he was discharged accordingly. HIGH COURT OF JUSTICIARY, EDINBURGH. On Monday. James Craw, gamekeeper to the Earl of Home, was but the bar, accused of wilful murder, having• on the Ist of February last, loaded a spring-gun with powder and shot, which he placed in the !fusel plantations, and attached a wire or string to the trigger, whereby Juhn Guthrie, son of the late Jas. Guthrie, carrier in Coldstream, who having trespassed in the said plantation in quest of game, came in contact with the said string, which caused the gun to be discharged, and the contents lodwil in the knee of the said John Guthrie, who died in consequence of the wound, on the 7"..'ihh March last. The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty. Coc snun sr said, that upon the main facts of this cave, that a spring-gun had been set within the Hem 1 plantation, and that a man had come by his death in consequence of trespassing, both parties were agreed. But there was still a grave and hitherto un tried question in this country involved, whether it was illegal to set spring-guns without notice, and being illegal, whether it justified so serious a charge as that preferred against the panel. It was his opinion, and that of his learned friend (Mr. Jeffrey) who appeared with him, that no verbal argument could supersede that mare grase mode of disposing of new questions, which was usu_l in that Court. The LORD ADVOCATE admitted that it wag of great import. ance to hare a solemn decision of the Court on this question. He wa. rot quite prepared to go into any lengthened verbal discussion, and should therefoie agree to written pleading., provided that they were seen and interchanged by an early day. The Court then ordered informations to be lodged before the first and second box day.--and the diet was continued against Craw till the 14th of November. Peter Mo./jilt, junior, was next put to the liar, oa a charge with the wilful murder of his father, Peter Itlotliit, late carter in Kil ryth, having, on the 2d day of April, 1822, assaulted and attacked the said Peter Moffat with a knite, or other lethal instrument, and inflicted several wounds in the belly of his father, whereof he died in four days thereafter. Mrs. Adam was the first witness called. She deposed—l live at the Cross of Kilsyth. I remember old Peter Moffat, the father of the prisoner. He got his death four years past, the 2d of April. He was in my house between nine and ten o'clock that night. There was no person in it at the time but my own family and a daughter of 3loffatt's, who was my servant. The prisoner was also in the house. Both the father and the son were the worse of liquor. The prisoner was asleep on the ground. The fa ther kicked him, took hold of the hair of his head, and knocked it against the ground, on purpose to waken him. Old Moffat seemed angry with me for allowing his son to lay on the ground, saying, "He is as deserving of a bed as the best of you."— The father continued to strike his son's head against the ground till he awoke, and said, " It's all my own fault." The father then struggled with the son, until the panne] was placed upon the chair. 'I he father again " dadded" his head against the mantle piece, but the strokes, as I think, were not violent, being merely to awaken, but not to injure him. The father continued this usage for some time, when the son said, " D--ii it, if you were not my father, I would not thole that." He then rose and seized his father by the throat. I ran ont to get assistance, but before I got to the door 1 think the son had couped" his father to the ground. On my calling, Mrs. (Allies, Jean Nicol, and James Johnston, came in, and pulled the father and son asunder. Ohl of THE ELECTIO.V OF A VICAR FOR ST. STEPHEN'S PARISH, COL EH A.V-STREET. Yesterday the election of a Vicar for this parish took place at the parted' church, in consequence of the Court of Chancery having de. cided that the one which occurred in 11123 was illegal. A very strong contest was expec'ed. as the greatest exertions had hem made by the friends of each candidate. O n th e frillier occasion the Reverend Josiah Pratt, the LINA:. date opposed to the Reverend 3lr. Fayle. was elected ; but a shu n time after, the friends of the latter, thinking the election illeg e t, filed a bill in Chancery, pr a yi ng th at e i t h er 3l r . F ayle be declared the Vicar, or 3lr. Prati's election be rendered void. The Chan. cellor was pleased to comply with the latter part of the prayer, g m out of it has arisen the present election. The Candidates on the present occasion were the same as those of 1823. The Hey. 51r. Fayle is what is termed of the High Clittrzh party. The Her. Mr. Pratt (Secretary to the Church slissionary Society), on the contrary, is of the party denominated par r)rrikacr, the Evangdi..al. The number of votes was es. petted to be nearly equd ; the result, therefore, was looked to with great anxiety. 'The Church, in anticipation of the severity of the contest, was prepared for the occasion ; barriers being placed at the ends of the side aisles, through which the voters were admitted, and at the chancel a hustings was erected, which, in solidity, would bare done honour to a county elec:ion. The respective Candidates, accompanied by their friends, entered the church a little before nine, as it had been resolved by the try, at their last meeting, that the polling should commence at nire and close at seven in the evening. The Senior Churchwarden (31-. Smith) was the presiding officer; and Counsel attended on behalf of the respective Candidates. immediately after the Her. Gentle men had been put m nomination, the polling commenced. It had not proceeded far, however, before It was discovered that a very strict examination of the voters would take place ; for, during the morning, the time of the presiding officer was occup i e d nearly two hours about two votes. Till 3 o'ock 51r. P. continued to increase hi s votes ov er his competitor; but Mr. P. by this time contrived to come nearly equal with him, the numbers being, for Pratt 177 Fayle 178. From this period the noise and tumult were excessive. and there was not the least cessation till the church was cleared. At seven o'clock the numbers were found to he, for Jr. Pratt 207 —Mr. Fayle 201. When this was discovered, and before the nth chit announcement was made, the friends of Mr. Fayte requested that the poll might be extended till eight o'clock. This was not permitted, and they then wished that the voters present should be polled, but Mr. Pratt's friends insisted that the numbers should be announced, as the poll had closed according to the resolution of the Vestry. Mere the confusion was so great, and the upro ar so l oud, that no one could hear any thing. We understood, however, that the numbers were not official,y announced, and that the election would again form a subject for legal inveatigation. Upon a few words of advice from Mr. Freeman, the people left the church, ap. parently much dissatisfied with the conduct of the presiding officer. SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE UNEMPLOYED OPERATIVES. (From the Ashley Aderstiser, June 24.) Report of the Committee for "managing the Subscription for the Relief of the Unemployed Operatives, 22i1 June. " The Committee have now closed the investigation which they mentioned as being in progress, in their last week's report--and it ii wi:h extreme concern that they have to state that the distress in the district ia far front being abated. The number of persona un employed, and in want, has decidedly increased, and the protract of manufacturing occupation is as gloomy as ever." We know that the Committee have, from the first, distributed the money placed at their disposal with a prudential hand; but, in the existing state of their fit ances, we understand that it will be utterly impossible for them to dole out the pittance which they row afford to distressed individuals, for many days !nowt.. If aid, im. mediate and extensive, be not obtained, it will be necessary to diminish those allowances which, at the best, do little more than ward off starvation. Should relief, as a matter of aeceeitty, be at an early period altogetrer withdrawn, famine must be the conse. quence ; and if there be any thing worse than famine, that too will follow.

Yesterday s Meeting of the Shareholders df this Company was held at the Company's Otter, Mark-lane • D. J. NAZE n, E-q. in the Chair. The Solicitor to the Company said that the Meeting was eon. yet Ni for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of paying hark the full amoUnt of the deposits viceired on account of shares from those Shareholders who had not signed the Parliamen tary Contrart. _ _ Mt. MSDALE said he had a Resolution to propose, which he tnisted would meet with the sanction of the Meeting before he should do NO. lie begged leave to observe that the expense of the New Exchange would not require more than OM., with what has already been subtcribed for the purpose, and the question was, whether or not the Company was to be classed with those bubble ( ompanies which have so recently disgraced the country, and whe ther, in the sacrifice of 290/. In the repayment of those Shareholders who had not signed the Parliamentary Contract, it would not be placing the Coinpany high in public confidence. lie concluded by inovieg a Resolution for the repayment of the full amount, to those Shareholders who had not signed the Parliamentary Contract, which Was seconded. The CHAIRMAN, In potting the Resolution, observed, that he was of opinion it would he much better to repay the Shareholders the full amount, than to deduct any thing whatsoever for expenses; irdeed the expenses were so trifling, it was not worth while; they would not exceed 2s. 3d. a %hale; and it would shew the public that the affairs of this Company were not conducted as these of Many other Companies were. lie then put the Resolution, which passed unanimously. Mr. DIMSDALE had to corgrarulate the Sleeting cm the great economy with which the Directors managed the affairs of the Compary ; he was happy to be able to assure the Meeting, that not a Angle shilling had been expended unnecesiarily ; and he bail no doubt but the undertaking would amply repay the Share -1 alders, and in every way fully answer their most sanguine ex pectations. (Applause.) Tt•e CHAIRMAN said, that he thought it necessary to inform the Meeting, that a further call would b, shortly made, in order to en able the Directors to pay for those buildings where the New Market war. to be erected. SHAREHOLDER was happy to inform the Meeting, that there was the strongest feeling possible in favour of the Company's undertakings ; those who held ground where the new building. t. cre to be erected, hull come forw%rd in the most liberal manner Lossible to facilitate the operations of the Directors ; and he felt coLtident that there would be no difficulty in carrying into effect the ve4 ~,ta of the Company. ( !fear, hear.) the CHAIRMAN caul there would be very little difficulty indeed, as all parties had met the views of the Directors ; with the exception of one case, w hich he thought should be left to a Jury. A Resolution was then passed, to enable the Directors to carry i7to effect the object of the first Resolution, namely, the tepay rrent of the deposits to thou Shareholders who bad not signed the R'adiamenury Contract.

The LoRD et/ AKCE r, Lon, nn coming into Court, said that he had Intimated his intention of giving several judgments that morn ing, and that he had accordingly prepared himself and had brought down the papers with him. Since hos arrival. however, he had re. ccived a notice, in consequence of which he should be obliged to postpone them. The Benchers of Lincoln's Inn were going to have a dinner in the Hall. and he should be obliged on that account to rise early ; he mu•t therefore defer giving the judgments which he had intended until to-morrow.

SHAW IN THE MATTER OF HOWARD Ayr) GIBBS- His Hosiona this morning ordered that the proof of Mr. Haw kins, under the Cmnmission of Bankrupt issued against Howard and Gibbs, should be expunged, inthe terms prayed for by the wition, negativing the allegation of fraud imputed to the bank. rupts. TUOIPSON, IY THE MATTER OP ABBOTT. This was a petition by the Treasurer of Greenwich Hospital, praying that he might be suffered to proceed, under a Commission of Bankrupt, issued against Henry Abbott, for the amount of several unclaimed and forfeited shares of prize money, due to certain sea men and petty officers of the King George, revenue cutter, of which ship the petition alleged the bankrupt had been agent, conjointly 'kith Richards. The question turned upon the construction of cer tnin acts done by Abbott, which the petitioner's Counsel (the Soli citor-General, Mr. Sughti, and .Me. Itoupel,) contended identified him with Richards in this transaction. . . FortheX.ssigmees ... oFAll,:tiTii;:llEALD (with whom was Mr. WAKEFIELD), on the contrary, maintained that in the instance before the Court he had been merely the substituted agent of Richards. After very elaborate arguments by Counsel on both sides, The VICE-CHANCELLOR said he would direct an issue to try whether the Treasurer, or Deputy Treasurer, of Greenwich Hos pital, are entitled to prove any, and what sum, under the commis sion of bankruptcy issued against linty Abbott, under the pro visions of the tith Geo.l V. see. 3, cap. 167. Some discussion .:rose upon this proposed order,whcn his If ow of: a consented to suffer Counsel to agree upon the exact terms ; keeping, however, the principle declared by him in view. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. GUILDHALL, Jusz 29. _[Before the LORD Curse Jusr ica and • Common Jury.) BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. ELCINGTON V. COPELAXD. This was an action brought by Miss Caroline Elkington, in the nittne of her guardian, Mr. William Elkingtes, an att^— renid. THE BRITISH PRESS. fore that month of April had expired, when it was intended that the marriage should have taken place. Mr. Cityra- v followed on the same side : but The Loan ettrEr JUSTICZ was of opinion there was nothing in the objection. Mr. (amiss then addressed the Jury in mitigation of damages. He allowed that a verdict most pass against his client, but lie sub mitted that as the defendant had only declined the promised match from prudential reasons, and because he conscientiously Mt inca pable of supporting a woman whom he esteemed and respected as she deserved, the damages ought not to be heavy. The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE summed up use case to the Jury. His Lordship said, that the Learned Counsel for the defendant had most wisely admitted that a verdict must pass against his client ; and then the only remaining question was as to damages. The Jury could not fail to observe. that the only reason assigned by the defendant for not fulfilling his promise of Marriage was his in capacity to support a wife; nevertheless, as lie had improperly trifled with a Toung Lelings and affections, it was but pro per that he should pay some damages. The amount was wholly for the Jury to settle. The Jury, alter a short consideration among themselves, found for the plaintiff—Damages 2.101. There was no other case worthy of public notice. COURT OF CO3IMON PLEAS, OVTLIMALL, JuxE29. lIANITAN V. TILEVE'rr. Mr. PLAT: opened the proceedings. 111 r. Sergeant Tanny stated the case to the Jury. The plain. tiff in this action was a wine-merchant, in extensive business. The defendant was a boot and shoe maker, residing in the neigh. bourliond of Finsbury-squere. This action was brought to re. cover damages for an injury the plaintiff had sustained, in con. sequence of a false representation by the defendant, of the sol vency of a publican, named Dunham. The facie were shortly these, : Dunham, a friend of the defendant's, took a public-house, called the Three Tuns, in Coleman-street. Shortly afterwards, the defendant introdoced a clerk of the plalniff's to him, and after some tasting of wines, at the Docks, Dunham ordered two pipes of wine, a puncheon of rum, and a pnricheon of brandy. The plaintiff"; clerk, whom he should call, then asked the dee fentlant if Dunham was a safe man, upon which the nefenee.nt replied, "As sale as the Bank." This the plaintiff's clerk coin mueicated to his employer, and the order was in consequence executed. Shortly after the money became due, Dunham was declared a bankrupt. Ile should prove the defendant to have been well aware of Dunham's circumstances ; for the latter had owed him' large sum of money ever since 1818. Not only that, but what rendered the part taken by the defendant more suspicious was, the fact of his taking a warrant of attorney against Dunham, about the time, and not executMer itt ill the wine was delivered to the latter. If he established these facts by evidence, he thought his client would he entitled to their verdict. The Learned Sergeant then called the following witnesses. J. May examined—Witneris was clerk to the plaintiiT in Anemia last year. He then knew Mr. Trevett; had some conversation with Trevett in July. Ileilcarnt that Dunham had taken a public. house, called the Throe Tuns ' in Colemaii.street, and expressed to Tre vett his desire to deal with Dunham. Trevett afterwards intro. duced him to Dunham. Ititness said to Dunham, that if he wished to go to the Doeks lie would take him. They, in come. quence. all three went on the 9th or 10th of August. Dunham then ordered three pipes of wine. Witness then said to 'frerett, " I supplate Dunham is perfectly safe; as safe as the Plink, I sup. pose i" Trevett replied, " Yes, for any thing I know to the con. teary." Witness had received orders from his employers to inquire into Dunham's respectability. In consequence of this representa tion of Trevett's, Dunham's order was executed. Afterwards a puncheon of Brandy and a puncheon of rum were sent him in. The total amounted to 36.11. us. 3d. The wine was sold at two months' credit, and the runt and brandy et four months. When it was due, he weat and applied for the money, but had not been able to get it. Cross-examined.—lt was witness's business to solicit orders, and he was to receive a gratuity at Christmaxaceording to the number of orders he procured. No orders were executed except with referen. ces. %Violets inquired of Dunham's son, who was at variance with his father. He made no inquiries of any body else ; told his em. ployer that he had. He solicited Dunham to give an order before lie made any inquiry of Trevett. Dunham gave an order for a dozen of wine before lie made any inquiry of Trevett ; but the order was not executed tili the 13th of August. No conversation ever took place in which Trevett expressed a bad opinion of Dun hant's solvency. Witness thought Dunham's eireninstancre were good from Trevett's introducing him to him. When the execution was pot in, he did not complain to Trevett of having deceived him. The reason why lie did not complain wart, that Mr. Hanham, his employer, thought it was a con spiracy' between Trevett and Dunham, and Mr. Hanham whited him to get all the information Ire coedit out of Trevett. Trerett shewed witness his books and said that he had an account with Dunham since 1818, which was not settled. Trevett still then, that he thought Dunham was able, and would par hint, and that the reason of his entering up judgment was to frighten Dunham. lie-examhied—Before the order was executed, witness told Mr. Hanham the answer of Trevett. (An account-book was here placed in the witness's hands.) This was the book Trevett showed him when he told hint Dunham had owed him money for many years. [Tire warrant of attorney given by Dunham to Trevett, to secure the payment of four bills of exchange of 1131. each, was put in.] Front Trevett's hooks it appeared that Dunham's debt to him kept accumulating from 1818. The Filazer of the Court of King's Bench proved that Trevett became bail for Dunham for 1751. on the :{oth April, 1825, and cash in June for 100!. In the latter part of the same month for 127/. Mr. Rule, clerk to M:. Justice Littledsle,-proved the justitica thin or bail in an action by original against Dunham for Wt. The Sheriff's officer proved the seizure of the wine for Dunham. Mr. Kemp, an auctioneer, proved the sale of the stock of the Three Tune. lie sold 110 or 70 dozen of wine, and a puncheon of brandy, with a piece of rum. He handed over 344/. on account of the execu ion, to Mr. Passmore, the attorney for Trevett. The remainder of the money arising from the sale, he paid to the astrigneo. There was a pipe of wine in wo o d besides the 60 or 70 dozen in bot le. An officer beiongina to the Docks then proved the transfer of two pipes of port wine, and the puncheoas of brandy and runt by the' plaintiff to Dunham. The Filezer was recalled, and proved bail was put in foe Dunham by Passmore, the attorney for Trevett, and that the co-bail Was the petitioning creditor. This was on the 11th October, a little before the execution was put in. The Gazette of the 111th October was put in, and !Mewed the declaration of bankruptcy to have taken place oil the 17th.
