A smuggling lugger, of considerable value, has been captured off Ballylotta Head, by the boats of the Sesniromis and Cyrus. Intelligence of the vessel being seen from the land was communicated to Lord COLVILLE, while he was engaged iu Di vine Service on Christmas-day. He sent his ad vices upon a slip of paper, and they were fulfilled by those appointed to execute them. The boats separated iu a thick haze, and only one, containing *Sven men, fell in with the lugger, the officer in which practised a stratagem with success. He gave orders 'audibly, as if several boats were at hand— Varying his tone of voice, in order to make it ap pear as if the officers commanding the different boats were emulously inspiriting their crews. When the crew of seven boarded the smuggler, she proved to be manned with forty picked stamen, and well armed. No resistance was made, and the remain ing boats' crews having rowed up when the fog cleared off, the vessel was safely brought iuto Cove, —(Glusgow Chronicle./ At the Commission, Dublin, on Tharidey, Col.

Mr. Hoene, Counsel for the Petitioned con tended that this was a ease in which the Court bad jerisdictimi, and that the decision of his Helmut the Vice-Chancellor was 'correct. The jurisdiction of the Court did not depend on the Act of the sth George If. but on the antecedent Acts of Par. liameut, which had not been repealed ; but it had been most properly observed by his Lordship, that the jurisdiction of the Corset did not depend on srstutes, but on the principles of justice. it was a misrepresentation when his Lordship was told that he (Mr. Horne) had contended before the Vice : - Chancellor that the interferetice of bankrupt. in the choice of assignees was so far improper that the C3urt, in every case, should declare. that the choice made by such interference was not valid. He had made use of no such argument ; he contended tto such thing before his 114p,tiur ; but lie contend. d, as he did now, that where bankrupts so improperly interfered, as they had in this case. in the election of enigmas, that the elected by such means were not valid, sod that there ought to be a new choice. It could not be contended that Mr. Carroll was a pro per person to be assignee, hom the cloud which was over his debt ; he had proved a debt of 13,0004 ageing the bankrupts' estate, and said he had a further debt, which he declined to prove, and it appeared this debt that he objected to prove was grounded on usurious transectioiss with the bank rupts. The Commissioners naturally, and he would say most properly, refused to ret dive the proof of the debt on the bills of exchange, without examiii in.; Mr. Carroll as to his other demand, to s-e whether the bills of exchange were not mixed do with the former transactions between him and the bankrupts. Mr. Carroll petitioned the Vice-C cellor against the decision of the Com • • and his Honour confirmed their opipion, and Mr. Carroll was obliged to submit tit be examined. and the Commissioners hail not delivered their ' opinion whether he was entitled to prove his debt or not. There was anutl4r question to be considered, whether Mr. Carroll was a fit person to be assignee in such a case as Haw, where the late- Twit of not only the opulent but the poor were con cerned. A man to be an assignee in such* cave, ought to be able to hold himself upright, and oitli an even hand make the bulance, for a great number of the debtorrof the bankrupts were persons of the first rank in society, and a great number of their creditors were pour servants, who had intrusted their hard-earned money to their custody. He con sidered that the question as to Mr. Carroll being an assigmee was put to rest, and he would very shortly put an end to the claim of Mr. Duffe to a similar office; that gentleman allowed that all the money he had advanced to the bankrupts was for annuities at a usurious interest ; it wee by his owa she so covered with illegality, that he had not a foot to stand 00 Nil for as his claim to be an assignee. The other claimant, Mr. Wilkie. was not exactly so si tuated,.as his claiiiijeas nut vitiated by usury ; for, in fact, fie had no claim un the bankrupts' estate as a creditor, hut he would not quarrel with bun on that account, for there might he many caws where it would be desirous that an assignee should not have an interest, on the ground that bring dis interested he would he the best guardian of the in. tercets of the bona fride creditor,. Further argument postponed until to-morrow (this day). COURT OF KING'S BENCH. Wrninirria, TOUDAT, JANUARY 16. CIVILTON V. PLUM ♦RD OTHERS. This was an Action by the Plaintiff, a respectable Solicitor, ►essding in Chancery.lane, against the Master of the Rolls, fur recovering a compensation in damages for ob.truciing the light of his office by means of the erection of a coach-house in Rolls yard. The cause was tried before the Lord Chief Justice, at Westminster, when the Jury found a verdict for the Defendants. In the last Term Me. ilitsavereebtaiued a rule to sheer cause why a pet iviel.ehoultLngt hest on the grounds of a misdirection of the Learned Judge who tried the cause, and also that the verdict was spinet evidence. Mr. SCA auteribd Mr. TINDILa were new heard at great length in support of the verdict. They dwelt particullsry on the very inconsiderable quan tum of damage sustained. even according to the Plaintiff's own Chewing ; end 'contended, that the whole question had been very properly left to the Jury, in whoseprovinee it particularly was to decide upon the cones tradictOry evidence which had been adduced. Had the Jury even found otherwise, and the question of damages had arisen, they would, Ito doubt, have been se trivial as to fall within the rule of the Court, nut to allow a new trial where the damages were under 40,1. Mr. M•artarr, for the Plaintiff; salt% the ob ject. was not the recovery of darnel" bat the removal of the• erection which had' occesioned an sensible a diminution of light as greatly to darken the Plaintiff'i office; and if that nuisance were now removed, his client, so far from being anxious about costs or damages, would be content to let these matters remain as at present. The COWLr thought the proposal worthy of the Defendant's consideration, and the matter stood over to give Mr. Scarlett ati opportunity to mention the proposition to Sir Thomas Plumes. lIILNSLEY V. lIIGNOLD. ' This was an action for work and labour, brought by the Plaintiff, a printer, against the Defendant, late Secretary of the Norwich Union Fire-office, mad was to recover the expense of printing a pam phlet. The Jury, at the trial, found a verd'et for the Plaintiff; subsequently s rule was obtained by Mr. Gurney, to shew cause why a non-suit should 'not be entered, on the ground that the regulation of the Act 38 Geo. 111., which recpiires thitt the name and address of the printer should be on the front of the pamphlet, had not been complied with. Mr. SCARIATT, for the Plaintiff, now contended that the Act of Parliament had been substantially complied with, es the manes of Pinner and Co. were affixed to the pamphlet, us printers sod publishers.
