Clllllll7 .lOSTICL—•' I know; yon meow as to granting a writ of certiorari to remove some trials row toolbox in Lanes4liirr into another county ?" Mr. Runt assented. His Lordship had then o..ted float the affidavits must declare a concurrence •f all the parties in the desire fur the removal. The Cuter JUSTICL as if, that such a cotscar ►estce was me y, and then the application mast he made by Counsel. Mr. HUNT humbly begged leave to ►emind the Court, that an application had been made by Coun sel. who+ had been instructed by their •ttonxy to snore the Court on their behalf. flat tto learniog she result of that application. the Defendants had most of them given op •t.y hope of hieing able to make such • trial as they thought lass their right. He hoped. however, thsst their Lordships would permit him to cite a few emirs which had been determined in that Court, Crum which it would he manifest that the concur rence of all the Defendants in one indictment was not necessary, in order to give any one of them ■ right of obtaining • certiorari. The Cittur JUIITICR said, that had been the ob iection of the Court to the application. liar could ne see any rea►on fur altering that opinion. Mr. Hunt submitted that Mr. Chitty had moved in 1,4811 ot all the Defendants. ' Mr. Jeeitiee BATLEY said. that Mr. Chitty was • u Co►rrt. and could answer fur himself. Mr. Currre acknowledged that his application had been general for the persons who made the •fflilsvit, and others. Mr. Hunt's name was at the need. The CIIIIEF JUSTICE and Mr. Justice BAYLEY, both amid that the Court had not in understood at the time. They would hear Mr. Hunt's present spplication. Mr. II JJJJJ said that he was shoot to offer to their Lordships' consideration some cases which would wove that the concurrence of all the 13efendunts slog not necessary. The CHIEF JU.TICE hoped that the Cates were altogether in point with that which founded the present application. Mr. Mid submitted that that was not necessary. Nlr., Justice BAYLIGY obrerved, that there lewd(' oe great inconvenience and prejudice to the Plain tills if the trials were to be removed into yarning c tie,. Mr. Justice Ben said, that in any case the ap plicsone were bound to put the prosecutors in the •eme condition as they !tow stood. Mr. hoot ss•rnlyd. He did not seek any ad- Fruitage over the prosecutors. His ground for ap plying was, that the people of Manchester and the neighbouring district must, in the nature of things, be prejudiced against him. The state of the Spe eel Jury list was another argument for removing the trial. He and his fellow Defendants were of course anxious to he tried by an intelligent Jury. Now be Iwrl on affidavit by a Gentleman who had examined into that stihj..ct, who stated that there were nut more then 50 jurors on the list, and that ihe list itself was not. even now made up, though as 'heir Lordships knew, it ought, according to Act of Parliament; to base been crude up at the close of the October Session.. Mr. Justice ILstrt.EY said, that could be no ground; for as the case now stood, it would be tried before a common Jury. CHM, JUSTICE directed the affidavit to be read. Which being done, he observed, that the complaint as to shortness of time contained in it, was singular, as the indictments had been laid be fore the long vacation. Mr. Justice BAT LET avid there did not appear to be sufficient materials before the Court to grunt the opplication. There was no proof of the concurring desire of all the Defendants. Ml. Hunt submitted, that au application had been mode by all the smartie*. Mr. Justice BAY LET...." Yes, but abandoned by thew after, occulibng to your own ockuowledg apent. fib. limit earnestly implored the Court, as they were men of wisdom end justice, to allow him to •efrr to the Calles which he would quote, and from ...hick he doubled net to prove to their Lordships list he was entitled to that stitch he claimed. The LORD CHM' JWITICE—" Well, shew us enur cases." Mr. Hum said, that the first authority he bad to •iffer, was the opinion of Lord KENTON, delivered m the case of the King v. IVAddingtms. The chirge was for forestalling and attempting to mono polize hops. The tree was lad in Kent. The pro irculors thought that the people of Kent might be prejudiced in favour of the 4 leirticent. and applied fur Irate to remove the trial into the county of Middlesex. The late Lord E.lenhorough e 4 cense against the rule. lint Lord Kenyon ,trashed the application. observitsg. that Kent 'night contain a great number of very good men Mr juries. but the rule of the Court was, thut no juryman should have any desire or inteiest as to the revolt of the trials. used that it was necessary so remove the possibility of suspicion with respect to the serdict.

It we. the King v. the iiihe- Wields of Shoreilitch (Marsh's Reports). Some of the Defendants had applied Mr a writ of certiorari, ohm had neglected to do so. The Court decided • list the inability of those who cot:ld nut glee ...cu. ray mold not prejudice the tight of the others. De submitted that this case of itAilf was soils:trot iu thew that it bad uut been usliforinly the custom of the Court to deny the application fur ~it of general COOCllffenCe among the Detelidants. There would be considerable danger, as lie imagined. Goon the ioesonible adoption of such a aide.

TSB KING N. .101110.11 WILIPKED PAKKINS. ESQ. AN D OTHERS. About half-past two o'clock this case was called on by the officer. Mr. DENMAN then rose and said. that he had been instructed to she.. cause aestiosst a rule obtain s(' last Tvrin. by his Leonard Friend the Solicitor. General. calling on J. W. Parkin. E.q. one of the Sheriffs of the City of London ; Itubsrt IVaitli man. E.q. Aldermen, and several other., to she's cruse why a criminal information should not be issued against them on account ..f 1 misde meanors alleged to be by them committed. The offssice imputed in the affidavit•. no which the rule was granted. consisted to she alleged ob.truction by the parties of the election of Lord .Mayo► of the City of Loudon. in the Guildhall of the City. on the29lh September last. On three affiJavits--. The CMIET JUSTICE—" dr. Denman. for whom do you s.liew cause ?" . . Mr. DEPIMAN---" Fur Mr. Alderman Waith man, Mr. Burnstearl. Mr. Ilurcombe, and Mr. Fearon. Mr. Ilolt, l understand, appears for Mr. Parkins; my Learned Fneud, Mr. Brougham, for Mr. Thomson; and Mr. Hoist, for I self." This role was founded on sffiaarits, of which the first in importance. though not in order. was akit of ['rimy Woodthorpe, the town clerk. It stated the c•mrse of practice of such electioaq anti it apprared from it that the MIMIC The CIIIIRTJUSTICB here interrupting the Lraaarn ed Counsel, inquired whether She cause was likely to occupy a great portion of time. Mr. Droi AN replied, he could not say, hot that he should endeavour to compress whit he had to urge info as small a compass as The SOLICITOR-GENERAL obaeived that the af fidavits were an voluminous', that it would be hardly po.sible the Court could go through the case before their ordinary time of taping. Mr. DENMAN said, that tlle's their Lord.hips would entertain ihr case 'sow, he apprehended thrre was some danger it might not come on doring the present Term, hut he thought it of great iml•ort once that it should be disposed of before its ter. miner ion. The Cults. JUITICE *mid, he was Frady to Amit that it was very desirable, and directed Mr. Denman to go on for a time at all events. Mr. DENMAN resumed, describing the contents of the affidavits, hnt immediately after stated, that if there was any objection to his proceeding then, he should Hot prrsvvere. The CHIEF JUSTIEF: asked, whether the par ties would he satisfied to have the cause fitted for the first on Friday morning ? . . . . Mr. Hunt, who 'nal bre,' ;mint; on the Amt.- ney's bench, here rose, and requested his Lordship not to postpone it, as it was uut likely to be at an end to day or to-morrow, or perhaps till the end of Term,/ el largh.) The CHIEF JUSTICE-.-Theit if it is to oc cupy all the time to the end of the Term, to the prejudice of all ulster suitors, whatever may he its importance, it must stowd over till the next Term. The Sot.tctToa-Gan UAL raid, that an arrange ment had been proposed to the crirpoite party at the beginning of the Term, to which they declined acceding. Mr. DENMAN said, that an the parties agsinst whom the rule had been obtained, t husulily solicited the Court to permit the cause to be argu ed before the end of the Term. The rule had been mode so late in the 1114 Term, soil six weeks after the trans:bolos's occurred, that it was utterly impos sible the affidavits put in could be answered before the present Teem. lie hoped that, if their Lord ships did not find it convenient to take the case now, they would suffer it to be argued io-tnoriow or Friday. The CutEr JUSTICR said, he had mentioned Fri day at first, because 'elr. Justice Bayley would be employed its another place to-tnosraw. floweretr they might begin it to-morrow morning, and if it appeared probable that it would take up all the re mainder of the Term. it should be p.p.' polled Lai the neat. " Take it first to-morrow morning." LIBEL. Mr. A. Moons mused fur a rule to 'hew cause, why • criminal informatiou should nut be filed against Moses Hawker. fur a libel on Samuel -lel- John Cooke r and •uutbcr, Commissioners of Aiveslied Taxes. It appeared from the affidavits, that the pervon against whom the iufurmation was sought. had been fined by • Magistrate iu the inanity, to the year 1815, in the mitigated penalty of 10/. fur shoot ing without • game license. fle appealed to the Commissioners, alleging that he had been unable to procure a license st the proper place in his dis trict ; sod that be had been assured there he might continue so shoot in safety till a license were sob. tinned. The Commissioners, however, saw reason to conbrsn the imposition of the floe. In the year 1818, an information for II similar offence was lodged against a Colonel Graves, hut on his repre senting that he had been for the last fifteen years out of the kingdom, and therefote ignorant of its customs, and that ssia lea g a license was neces sary, he charged himself, previous to the inform:s nail, with the price of one. in his return of his assessed lazes, the Commissioners suffered the in formation to be withdrawu. lii October last Mr. Hawker appeared before a meeting of the three Cunnnissiouers, and produced a pallet, purporting to be a statement of facts iu Manors to their cooduct towards himself and to wards Colonel Graves, and required them to sign it. One of them replied, that it was out a correct stateuseist ; on which Mr. Hawker u►rd very vio lent language, and charged them with hiving act ed with gross partiality between himself and Col. Graves.

But niofortotostrly for Lord IL me lagh.
