LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, 1V: v. 18. THE DUKE OF LEEDS V. EARL AMHERST. The arguments in this case, which were commenced yesterday, were resumed to-day. The case came be fore the court upon an appeal, and also a petition of re hearing of the decree of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England, decreeing an account against the executors of the late Duke of Leeds, for an alleged waste in the pulling down of the old family mansion of Kiveton Hall, in Yorkshire, cutting down the timber in the park con nected with the mansion, and converting the whole, con sisting of about 500 acres, into a farm. The bill was filed by the present Duke of Leeds, who attained his majority in 1819, against the executors of his father, the late Duke, for the purpose of recovering from them, as the representative of the estate of the late Duke, the amount received for the materials of Kiveton Hall, and also for the timber that had been cut down in the park, which, it was alleged, exceeded the sum of 20,0001. It appeared, according to the statements of the counsel of the present Duke, that Kiveton Hall had been the family mansion in Yorkshire for centuries, of the head of the Dueal house of Leeds, and had continued to be so until by marr ia g e with the family of the Earl of Holderness, Hornby Castle came into possession of the Leeds family. Kiveton Hall being, as it was alleged by the executors of the late Duke of Leeds, in a state of great dilapidation and decay, his Grace bad it rased to the ground, the trees in the park cut down, and the whole estate turned into a farm, which now brought in upwards of 7001. a year. The adoption of this course, it was contended on behalf of the present Duke, was an act of waste which the late Duke had no right to commit, and the present bill was filed to compel the late Duke's executors to account for the moneys received in consequence of that waste. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England, on the case coming before him, decreed an account; and from that decision the present appeal and petition of rehearing were brought. Mr. Stuart, Mr. J. Parker, and Mr. L. Russell were Counsel for the appellant, and Mr. Bethell and Mr. Lloyd supported the decision of the Court below. The case stands over for Mr. Bethell's reply, that Learned Gentleman having intimated to his Lordship that a messenger had just arrived to inform him that a member of his family had been taken dangerously ill. The other appeals in his Lordship's paper were totally devoid of any interest, except to the parties concerned. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—The last advices received from America confirm the impression that was made upon our minds some weeks ago. Combined with the accounts which are almost daily arriving from different parts of Europe, and our own provincial markets, they remove the f ex treme alarm which once prevailed, lest the supply for the during the ensuing year should be insufficiei4or the wants of this country. This supply may, indeed,th fall below that of our more abundant seasons, but there seems no reason for supposing that its con_treatctionwbe sensibly or universally felt. In every k through out the kingdom prices have been receding, a in obedience to the only law which can influence them —the law of supply and demand. I n deed, at the present moment there is far less cause for apprehending that we are on the eve of a general dearth, than that the English far mers, finding themselves jostling together thus early in the excitement of an unwonted competition, may crowd their produce prematurely into the market, and thus deprive themselves of the advantage which a more politic reservation would insure to them through out the year. It is the interest no less of this public than of the producer that the available supply of grain should be diffused as equally as possible through the twelvemonth, and that buyers should not have to compensate the cheapness of December or January by an extravagant dearness in July or August. We shall of course be well pleased to find the present prices ruling till the summer; and there seems little reason for supposing that they will hereafter exceed this amount, unless they are now reduced below their proper standard by the agitation of real or pretended alarm. Notwith standing the quantities of wheat and flour imported from the United States, we learn from correspondents of knowledge and judgment, including the " Genevese Traveller," that there still remains behind a considerable proportion ready for exportation. That there is little cause to fear the effect of high prices on the other side of the Atlantic, or of a 4s. duty on this, may be inferred from the fact that, though on the arrival of the last steamer flour rose from 50 to 75 cents. per barrel, yet it soon afterwards sunk 30 cents. A depreciation of this kind has only one solution—abundance. And we are confident that although the corn harvests of the United States might be insufficient to repair the cala mity of a general European dearth, yet that, with the present amount of our home-grown produce, England can derive more than she absolutely wants, or is likely to want this year, from the western states of North America. That this consummation is very far opposed to that which we once anticipated, we readily admit. But if we plead guilty to the charge of having conceived unreasonable fears or uttered false predictions, we may likewise claim the merit of having in some degree brought about the falsification of our apprehensions. For we believe that it is in part owing to the representations which we ourselves put forth, in accordance with fears unfounded, indeed, but at the time very general, that we may attribute the extra ordinary efforts recently made to transmit grain from the interior of North America to the coast. And to these representations also is in some measure owing the stimulus recently given to the shipping employed in the European corn trade. Consequences like these more than atone for the precedent error, and, to our minds, outweigh a thousand sneers about in consistency and vacillation. Two facts should be con tinually borne in mind. The most curious phenomenon of the present deficiency is, that it is a deficiency of the coarser grains. Wheat is comparatively plentiful in England, and more than usually good. It is of the com moner and coarser kinds of food that the yield has either been unhealthy or insufficient. The same analogy holds with respect to France. This is the first fact. The second is, that Ireland, rather than England, is affected by the dearth. This is only a consequence of the pre ceding proposition. The poor crops that have failed are the Irish food. Had there been no Ireland at all, we should never have heard of famine in England. The price of wheat might have risen in consequence of exportations to other parts of Europe. But it has risen through the natural reaction of conti guous misery upon comparative competence. One part of a nation cannot suffer severely without affect ing the other partially. One kind of sustenance cannot become dear or scarce without raising, though not to the same extent, the price of another. And this dearness will continue, and finally be aggravated, until a substitute be found for that species of food which is n rn porarily lost. England apprehended the famine which Ireland suffered. Wheat grew dear because potatoes had become so. The Indian corn, which is the only available substitute for the potato, was at first so par tially and scantily supplied as to have become in Ireland dearer than wheat itself. Hence the reaction on our markets in this country. But the worst features of the crisis have changed for the better. The influx of Indian corn has of late been very considerable. A great re duction in its price may, therefore, be calculated on; and this can be effected without loss to the importer, as the price may fall very much below its recent height, and yet leave a profit to the seller. Nor shall we fail to per ceive the effects of this change in England. As long as the price of Indian corn was so high and seemed likely to continue so high in Ireland, there was an appearance of harshness in keeping up the duty on foreign wheat. It was only an appear ance. The abolition of the duty would nct have brought food to the mouths of a dozen Irish families. Still it looked hard; and persons of soft hearts and not very logical heads were very indignant at the notion of paying a duty of 4s_ on wheat in England, while their fellow-subjects were starving on untaxed meal in Ireland. But now there is, we hope, an end even to the pretext for such indignation. The Irishman is likely to obtain his substitute for potatoes cheaper than heretofore, even if he do not save a remnant from the supposed failure of his usual crop. And we hope that he is also beginning to earn the price of his daily food. He has been too long indulging the delusive theory that, in periods of scarcity, a Government is bound to complicate its other embarrassments by giving a multitude of people wages for doing nothing. This is a most fatal error—more fatal to the donees than the donors of such gratuitous stipend. But the recent measures of the Lord-Lieu tenant, and the more general disposition of the peasantry to engage in task-work, give earnest of a most desirable improvement both in their habits and their condition. And we see no reason why—if Indian corn does not again become too dear, and the present rate of wages continues—this year of dearth should not be an era of new prosperity to every man in Ireland. CHRONICLE.— Our contemporary, the Morning Post, edified its readers yesterday with a very minute description of the dissensions by which, according to its representation, the present Ministry is distracted. Our contemporary's remarks evince a degree of good nature towards a portion of the Cabinet, and indeed a kind of approbation of it as a whole, which may obtain a certain amount of attention for its disclosures. The Post com mences its exposition of the most minute and secret details of Cabinet discussion by expressing its ignorance of " how such circumstances transpire ;" and certainly it is not very easy to conceive how such circumstances should transpire, seeing that the information, if correct, must proceed from parties sworn not to disclose it. The Post, however, declares it to be certain that " in quarters not likely to be misinformed, and among per sons not likely to be the dupes of mere conjecture, a conviction exists that the present Ministry is split into oppositg sections, and that there is scarcely any one subject upon which a cordial unanimity of sentiment exists." We can likewise declare, with at least as much assurance as our contemporary, " that in quar ters not likely to be misinformed, and among persons not likely to be the dupes of mere conjecture, a convic tion exists"—that there is no truth, or semblance of truth, in the statement which he has so positively and circumstantially put forth. The Post, or its informant, in the exercise of a lively imagination, has conjured up visions of sharp and incessant contentions between the two Noble Lords who fill respectively the offices of Fo reign and Colonial Secretary. Such visions, we believe, have not the slightest foundation of fact to support them. We have no fear of being considered the " dupes of mere conjecture" in concluding that when public men of character have so far put an end to former disagree ments as to sit in Cabinet together, they must have banished from their minds all such wretched feelings of rivalry as those which the Post describes as in active existence. We have no hesitation in stating it to be oar entire conviction that such rivalries and dissensions as the Morning Post describes do not exist, and have not existed amongst Ministers since the formation of the present Government. The Post, however, has this ex cuse for its mistake, that the Peel Cabinet, of which it was once a cordial supporter, was divided and ultimately destroyed by internal dissensions. After the lamentable experience of that Administration, we cannot wonder that the spectre of a disunited Government should now haunt the imagination of our contemporary. As far as our knowledge goes, however, we can offer him the con solation of which he is evidently desirous. Let him, by all means, banish his apprehensions, for there is not the slightest reason for believing that there is, or has been, any thing in the discussions of the Cabinet in the least degree inconsistent with its being, as our contemporary wishes to see it, " firm, united, and vigorous." BOLLS' COURT, Nov. 18. HOPKINSON V. ELLIS. Mr. Sergeant Jones was heard against the demurrer, and Mr. Sergeant Channel for the plaintiff. The argument turned on the cun,truction of tle Bankruptcy Act, and whether or not the amended statute Bth and 9th Victoria was retrospective in its operation. The CounT held that the statute Bth and 9th Victoria was not retrospective, and that defendant's plea was bad in this respect ; also that the plea was detective in not setting forth whether the defendant had received his dis charge from the Bankruptcy Court at the time when the action was brought. Judgment therefore was given for the plaintiff. (Sittings at Guildhall, before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL). BARKER V. KEMP—NORTH-WESTERN TRUNK RAILWAY. This was an action, brought by Mr. Charles Barker, the advertising agent, to recover the sum of 4031. 7s. from Thomas Reginald Kemp, one of the provisional di rectors of the North-Western Trunk Railway Company, for inserting the advertisements of the said company in various London and local newspapers, between the Ist of October, 1845, and the 30th of November in the same year. The defendant pleaded not indebted, and that he was not an acting member of the committee when the al ledg,ed debt was contracted. Mr. James and Mr. Parry appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Knowles for the defence. Mr. JAMES, having opened the case, going over the particulars he intended to prove, the substance of which we have already given, proceeded to call his witnesses. Mr. Gorbett, the solicitor of the company, was the first witness called, and deposed that Mr. Kemp had attended several meetings of provisional directors. On one occa sion, when Mr. Barker received orders to insert the advertisements in the several newspapers Mr. Kemp was present, but witness could not say that he heard the latter give orders for the same. It was, however, given by some one at the time. In cross-examination the witness deposed that the managing committee passed a resolution, by which it was agreed that the solicitors who projected the line, Messrs. Gorbett, Brown, Stanley, and Miller, should bear all the expenses up till a period of ten days posterior to the last day named in the letters of allotment for paying the deposits on shares, and that then the said solicitors should sign all interest in the company, in consideration of receiving 3,500 shares free of the first deposit, in such a manner as the allotment committee might determine. If oh the tenth day named the ma naging committee decided to go on, 2,5001. was to be paid down to the solicitors, such sum to be deducted from the deposits, but if the company was broken up, then the managing committee should pay them back all the expenses they had been at. The managing com mittee subsequently refused to allot the shares, and the This was a case in which the defendants, who wero next of kin to Sir J. Ellis, late of Cholderton Lodge, near Andover, raised a question as to his will with the plain tiffs, who are his heirs-at-law, respecting the distribu tion of the assets. It appeared that the testator had bequeathed various sums of money to different charities in the metropolis, and, in the event of there being a residue of his personal estate, it was to be distributed in certain ways de scribed in the will, among which were donations to certain charities. The execution of the specific in tention of the testator being against the statute of mort main, it was sought to apply that rule of law. Mr. Kindersley appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Turner for the defendands. His LORDSHIP, in giving judgment, said, this was one of those cases in which it was sought to apply the rule of law to a case in which the statute of mortraain interposed. The testator intended to dispose of the whole of his estates as well as the residue of his property, and he stated in his will the uses to which he desired the same to be applied. He also gave authority to his trustees to pay any residue to any of the charities they might select as most deserving of relief. As the first means to effect these objects, he desired the whole of his personal estates to be converted into money ; he then directed how it was to be managed, and how it was to be applied, using in his will expressions which at times applied to real, and at others to personal estates. From these expressions in the will, he (Lord Langdale) could not get over the im pression that the testator intended that there should be a common fund for the payment of his legacies. He must, therefore, consider this as a mixed fund, and this being the case, the application of it was clear. Those portions of the funds which arose from the sale of the personal estate, to be applied fur charitable purposes, could not be so applied, and consequently went to the next of kin. Then the question arose as to the real estate ; it might certainly be converted into personal estate. It was also clear that the testator had no other intentions than those in the terms of his will, and, there fore, he had no doubt upon the point, that the next of kin had no right to any part of the real estate. company did not do on. James Stevens, the secretary of the company, gave evidence that he had, from time to time, by the instruc tions of the committee, ordered Mr. Barker to get the advertisements inserted in the newspapers. The orders emanated generally from the committee, but he could not say that any one gave orders. His authority was the resolutions passed by the committee, and inserted in the minute-book. In cross-examination, he stated he believed the in structions of the committee were generally given by the Rev. Mr. Lister, the chairman of both the provisional and managing committees, but they were given in the name of the board. George Street, clerk to Mr. Barker, proved that writ ten and verbal orders had been received from Mr. Ste vens to insert the various advertisements in the news papers, and that he had seen the greater part of the money paid. A t this stage of the proceedings the Court was about to adjourn the case till to-morrow, in order that witness might prepare a detailed account, when Mr. KNOWLES said that, as it appeared, from some ob servations that had fallen from his Lordship, that he thought there was a case to go to the jury, and as the object of the plaintiff was only to recover from the de fendant a moiety of the account due by the provisional directors generally, he would therefore consent to a --- VICE-CHANCERY COURT, Nov. 18. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) TERRY V. WACHER. The opening of the pleadings in this cause occupied his Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England the whole morning. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 18. THE QUEEN V. ST. PAUL'S, COVENT-GARDEN. This was an appeal against an order of two justices of the county of Middlesex, making a woman and her children chargeable on the parish of St. Paul's-Covent garden, on the ground that she was not an inhabitant under the provisions of Acts of Parliament relating to the settlement and chargeability of the poor. Mr. PASIILEY appeared in support of the appeal. The word " inhabitant" was susceptible of various interpreta tions—it was almost impossible to specify its various sianifications. t 'Mr. Justice EnLE said most words in the English language had more meaning than one. Words must be taken in their obvious and general sense. Mr. PASHLEY said, what was sufficient to constitute an inhabitant in one case might have a directly contrary signification in another. A person might walk over a piece of land in a parish and declare himself an inhabi tant ; another might meet with an accident, and become involuntarily an inhabitant, but the intention to settle the animus morandi must be clearly made out. In this case the allegation was, that the "woman intruded and came into the parish, and had thereby become actually chargeable," but there was nothing to show that she came within the definition of an inhabitant, and he, therefore, held that the order on the face of it was bad, and that that the justices had exceeded their jurisdie diction. He trusted the Court would make the rule absolute. _ _ _ verdict to that amount. A verdict was then, by order, given for the plaintiff, for 651., being the proportion of the 4031. owing by the defendant, iu conjunction with other provisional di rectors, against whom actions were pending. SUICIDE AT THE CHAIN PIER, BRIGHTON.—On Monday evening, at dusk, a neatly-dressed woman was seen walking about the promenad e at the pier-head, in a manner to excite some notice ; but as her demeanour afterwards became somewhat calm , th at notice was not long continued. Half an hour later she was discovered by a son of Mr. C. Cooper, clerk to the Pier Company, outside the rails, her back towards the town, and holding by the rails with her hands, which were placed behind her. Imagining from her position that she was preparing to drown herself, Mr. Cooper crept stealthily to the spot, and was in the act of seizing her clothes, when she sprang into the water. The alarm bell was immediately rung, the lifeboat was lowered, and search was mule for the body with drags for several hours, but w4hout success. In the morning it was found on the beach, near the Albion Hotel, and conveyed to the Town-hall. When first seen, the deceased had a small basket, which, with her bonnet and a handkerchief, she placed on a seat on the pier before leaping into the water. Her age is judged at about 24 - and her dress resembles that of a servant, but is very neat She is not known; and neither in the basket n or in herpockets was anything found by which information as t o r identity could be gleaned. SKIFF RACE ON TH E ryNE FOR 1001. ASIDE.— On Monday_ between a match fo r 100 . ienry aside i came off on th e ri ver Tyne, Newcastle, Clasper, well kn ow n from his contests w i t h London , and Maddison, a young man of some local rep utatio n,waterulen who defeated Clasper in a skiff race at the lat e of England immense rth Regatta. Great interest was ex e cited crowds were collected to witness the even o t. w an e T v d e h r e betting l gat, Clasper was slightly in favour of Clasper, who, h choice of place at starting. Maddison took the le for some distance was a boat's length ahead. rapidly gained ground, and on coming alongside his 1 4- ponent was fouled by him, and accordingly gave up the race. The umpires and referee immediately returned to Newcastle, and, after a good deal of wrangling, decided in favour of Clasper, to whom the stakes were paid. Lord DENMAN said, most of the points urged by the Learned Counsel were too trivial for the consideration of the Court. The question of " inhabiting" was, how ever, one of importance, and the Court would consider it. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 19, 1846 of the value of 41., the property of Thomas Ashley, of No. 3, Berton-place, Ball's-pond, Islington. Tho prisoner's family, raid that of the prosecutor's, had been on terms of close intimacy, and on Sunday hot, during the absence of Mr. and Mrs. Ashley from home, the prisoner entered the house and stole the watch, which hung over the chimney-piece. On information having been conveyed to the police, inquiries were made at several pawnbrokers, when it was found that the watch had been pawned in the shop of Mrs. Law, Rochester-terrace, Stoke Newington, by a person very like the prisoner. The pawnbroker's shopman identified the prisoner as the person pawning it, and she was fully committed for trial. ATTEMPTED MURDER AT ISLINGTON. On Monday evening, when Mr. Greenwood was about to leave the Clerkenwell Police-court, Sergeant Allen, 21 N division, informed the magistrate that he had made inquiries of Mr. Haines, surgeon, of the Liverpool-road, Islington. and was informed by that gentleman that Mrs. Haines, of Paradise-terrace, who had been so bar barously treated by George Wilmot, in his attempt to murder and rob her, was in so dangerous a state, that he suggested the necessity of the magistrate's immediate at tendance at her residence, to take her deposition. De lirium might take place within twelve hours of that time, and death might ensue. Mr. Greenwood, at six o'clock in the evening, arrived at the cottage of Mrs. Haines, who was found lying in bed, in a most deplorable condition. The cottage is situated in a most solitary place, a long, dark, and dismal alley leading from the Liverpool-road to Pocock's fields, adjacent to the spot where the late Mr. Temple man was murdered, and at the northern extremity of the road. Mr. Greenwood, Mr. Haines, the surgeon, the various officers, and our reporter were admitted into the apart ment where Mrs. Haines was lying, and every arrange ment having been made, the prisoner was brought in, in the custody of Mr. Duke, and placed at the foot of the bedstead, where he had a clear view of Mrs. Haines, who viewed him with evident terror, whilst he seemed to shun her and turn aside. Mr. Greenwood administered the usual oath to her, when he inquired whether she knew the name of the prisoner? Mrs. Haines (faintly)--I believe his name is Wilmot. LLOYD'S SIIIPPING.

CHARLES WRIGHT V. THE QUEEN-IN ERROR. In this case a writ of error had been issued, calling upon this Court to reverse a sentence of outlaw passed upon the plaintiff in error, on the ground that several of the counts of the indictment in which the offence was charged were bad. The indictment was admitted to be bad. Th 4 ATTORNEY-GENERAL, who appeared for the plaintiff in error, was heard at great length in support of the reversal of the outlawry and the judgment of the Court. Sir Frederick Thesiger appeared for the Crown. The COURT considered, as the indictment was ad mitted to be bad, that the outlawry ought to be reversed, and that it was absurd to ask it to reverse a judgment which had never been pronounced; in fact, with the re versal of the outlawry, the proceedings were brought to a close. The remainder of the day was occupied with cases of disputed pauper settlements, which involved no point of interest. Jun. IMMUNE, M.P., AND MR. LEWIS, TUE ASSISTANT POOR-LAW COMMISSIONER. " This case will come on for argument on Tuesday next BAIL COURT, Nov. 18. FaiITLKNEIt V. HALL.—QUESTION AS TO THE LIABILITY OF PROVISIONAL COMMITTEEMEN. Mr. MARTIN appeared in this case to show cause against a rule for entering judgment against the plain tiff as in case of a nonsuit for not proceeding to trial. The action was brought against a provisional committee man, and was to have come on for trial at the last Lei cester Assizes. The plaintiff, however, did not go on with the cause, alleging that he had been advised not to do so by his counsel, in consequence of the very un settled state of the law with regard to the liability of provisional committeemen. He stated that it was a well known fact that the opinions entertained by Mr. Justice Cresswell on this subject differed from those entertained by all the other judges, and he preferred waiting until the law was more settled. Mr. CARRON said that he had often heard excuses for not proceeding to trial, but never one like this. Mr. MARTIN said that the Court of Exchequer had lately discharged several rules on peremptory undertak ings being given to proceed to trial as soon as the ques tion was settled. Mr. JUStiCe IATTESON—IIow do you know you will have any rule of law laid down? Mr. MARTIN said that there was a case about to come on in the Court of Queen's Bench, the decision on which would finally settle the question.—Rule discharged. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 18. CLEMENTS V. FLIGHT. In this case, which came before the Court on demurrer to a plea of non-detinet, the plaintiff sought to recover possession of certain scrip shares and certifi ca t es depo sited by him with the defendant as collateral security for the payment of an advance of a sum of money amounting to 7001., to be returned to the plaintiff upon repayment of the above sum. The declaration set forth that the defendant bath and does detain the property in question. The plea of the defendant was to the effect, that the defendant did tender to t he plaintiff the pro perty in question, upon receiving payment of the sum advanced upon it, but that the plaintiff refused to ac cept it. It was now contended by Mr. Ltmu that the defend ant's plea was not a sufficient answer to the declaration in the cause, inasmuch as it did not set forth the reason of his present holding. Mr. HoGoixs, on the other hand, contended that the defendant, having lawfully fulfilled the conditions and the terms of his contract, in having made the tender of the good 3, was not bound to assign in his plea any notice of the reason of the goods still being in his pos session, it being the fault of the plaintiff which had pre vented him from delivering the goods in question. The COURT took time to consider. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov 18. THOMSON AND ANOTHER V. LACK. This was an action brought under a covenant to re cover a sum of money from one of the co-sureties of an annuitant. The defendant pleaded that at the time the action was brought he was under the protection of the Bankruptcy Act, having received a protection under its provisions, and that he had received a release from his obligation under the covenant., from the other co-trustee. To those pleas the plaintiff demurred. 3IAXY V. TII33IAS This was an action brought against a coffee-house keeper in Bishopsgate-street, to recover 1001. on two bills of exchange. It appeared that the plaintiff had been the previous cccupant of the house, and part( d with the business to the defendant fur 3501. At the time he sold it he stated the house to be doing from 15/. to 201. a week. He paid down 2501., and gave the two bills, on which this action was brought. The defence was, that the plaintiff bad misinformed the defendant as to the amount of business done, the receipts not being more than 101. a week, and that 2501. was full value for the same. .. ... _ The jury found a verdict for the defendant.

This was an action brought by Mr. Ryland, one of the City Pleaders, against the above company, for da mages for injuries received by an accident on the rail way. The case was the first on the list, but the solicitor for the company applied for a postponement of the case till twelve o'clock. The SECONDARY said the difficulty was, that a special jury had been summoned, and it would be a great incon venience to them. The application was ultimately agreed to. At one o'clock the record, however, was subsequently withdrawn. The damages were laid at 1,0001., and it is understood the affair was compromised for 1001. HOOPER V. F 3Y. This was an action on an I 0 U for 101., and the de• fendant pleaded payment. It appeared from the evidence that the plaintiff had been in partnership with his bro ther, but the money had been lent by the plaintiff out of his private property. The defendant produced a re ceipt signed by the firm for the amount, and it was al leged that was for the I 0 U. For the plaintiff, in reply, it was urged that the receipt was for goods solds sold by the partnership, with whom de fendant had had many dealings; and it was fur ther contended, that a receipt given in the name of the firm could not be an answer to a private debt. The SECONDARY left it to the jury to say whether they believed it was a partnership receipt for a partner. ship debt. The jury found a verdict for 101. The plaintiff claimed interest for three years, but The Learned SECONDARY held that it was not recover able, as there was no promise on the face of the docu ment, or notice given that the defendant would be liable.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Mary Hunter was placed at the bar, under the charge of being drunk and incapable of taking care of herself. Inspector Baker informed Mr. Hardwick that the de fendant, with her husband, had been before Mr. Long on Tuesday, at the office, charged with stealing furniture from their lodgings. The woman then appeared to Mr. Long to be the cause of their misery, and they were both discharged, on the undertaking of the husband to return some of the articles last night, and the rest within asb ort time. The next charge on the sheet was against the husband, for stealing a feather bed from his lodgings last night. Such was the way they had taken to settle yesterday's charge. He believed the evidence as to the bed would go against the woman rather thane the man. Mr. HARDWICK ordered both prisoners to be placed at the bar. William Hunter was then put to the bar, charged with stealing a feather bed from his lodgings, Carnaby-street, • Sarah Walker, 19, Carnaby-street, said both the pri soners had occupied furnished apartments at her house for the last six weeks, during which time they had stripped the rooms of everything but the tables and chairs. She said the woman came on Tuesday night, about eight o'clock, for the key of her room, with the inten tion, as she thought, of bringing hack some of the furniture, according to their undertaking before the magistrate. But a little after she had got the key, complainant found the room open and empty, and the feather bed, with some other articles, missing. Police-constable 55 C said the man 'iwas given into his custody last night, about ten o'clock. The male prisoner said all this arose from the drunkenness of a wife. He knew nothing about the bed whatever, but believed it might be found some rag shop or old iron shop. He had spent the whole of Tuesday making inquiries at shops like these after the other articles, but could get no intelligence about them. Thomas Walker, the husband of the coin) ilainant, said he feared the female prisoner was most to blame. Mr. liAnDwicx discharged the man, and ordered the woman to be brought up again on Friday. Jonas Barker, apprentice to Mr. J. Smit b, plumber, 22, Woodstock-street, Oxford-street, was charged with stealing lead pipe from his master. John Smith, apprentice to Mr. Smith, said..he left the prisoner on Tuesday night, about a quarter past ten, in the shop with a light, and saw him walk up to where the pipe was hanging. The witness heard him :meddling with the pipe, then something fall on the 'box beneath where the pipe hung, and then footsteps' across the shop. The defendant then walked out by th ?, back door, with something across his right shoulder. IVituess told his master, and they went into the shop, where they missed a length of 14-inch pipe, about 32 lbs. weight. The length of pipe was safe in the shop yeste arday morn ing; it had not yet been discovered. Mr. HARDWICK remanded him for further , 4iquiry. CLERKENWELL. Anne Fredray was charged with stealing a sill er watch, In answer to further questions, she replied as follows —He formerly kept this house. On Saturday evening last, between five and six o'clock, I was alone in the par lour getting my husband's supper ready, when I heard a tap at the window. The door was fastened. It was very dark. I went to the window, and inquired, " Who is there?" The prisoner replied, "It is me." I said, " Halloo, master, is it you; is anybody with you?" He said, " No, I am alone." I opened the door. He en tered and placed his back against it. He said, I want a bit of paint if your husband has got a bit to give me. I said he has got none, and asked him to sit down. He said he had been over to Newington to pay the interest of some things which were in pledge. I told him if he had mentioned that to us before we would have given him some money. I asked him to have some tobacco. He took some. There was an iron candlestick on the table with a lighted candle. He smoked about five minutes. He said, you will be too late with your husband's supper. I got up to put the meat in the saucepan. I turned round and was going towards the fireplace when I heard the prisoner's footsteps behind me. I turned round and he looked very pale. I felt very much frightened when suddenly the light disappeared, and I felt a tremendous blow on my head. I screamed " Murder," and he struck me with some instrument on the head, which cut me six or seven times. He struck me repeatedly on the head. I must have received upwards of a dozen blows. I had my bonnet on at the time. He got me into the corner of the room, and beat me on the head; he caught me by the throat, and I thought he would have killed me. The prisoner, who seemed quite perturbed and agitated, here turned pale, walked about, exclaiming, " Oh, dear! oh, dear;" at length he seated himself on a trunk in the room, and hid his face in his hat, stooping down. Witness—l struggled with him, and got his head under my arm, and I had strength enough left to drag him to the door, and opened it. I cried " Murder" as well as I could, when he ran off, leaving me insensible. Mr. Greenwood—Did he ever talk to you of money, as if he wished to fish out of you whether you carried money about you ? Witness—On Friday night he called and he asked how we thought we should pass our Christ mas. I told him my husband bad resolved on going into the country to see his father and mother, and it would cost him 5L About a month ago my cousin was robbed. He said he was surprised we had not been robbed. I told him there was no fear of that, as I always carried my money in my pockets. I occasionally lent the pri soner money, a sovereign at a time, because we thought he had net with misfortunes. Mr. Greenwood—Did he say anything while he was beating you ? Witness—He never said a word from the first to the last. My shoulders, my stays, and all my clothes were soaked with blood. My nose bled very much. Mr. Greenwood inquired if the prisoner wished to ask the witness any questions ? Prisoner (tremulously)— Ask her if she said anything to me about any man that used to call here. Witness—l never did say anything about the man. Prisoner—Ask her if she never said she would give information to the parish officers that I had deserted my wife, and cause my arrest. Witness—l never did anything of the kind. Prisoner—Ask her if she did not seize me by the throat. Mr. Mould (to Mrs. Haines)--I suppose you consi dered it a death-struggle to save your life? Mrs. Haines —I did so. She added, the first blow he struck her was on the front of the head. She here because very weak, and her examination was closed. The prisoner was then conveyed to the House of Cor rection, under the commitment of the magistrate. It was yesterday reported that Mrs, Haines was still in a very dangerous state. The prisoner is said to have been formerly a lieutenant in the navy ; he is about five feet four inches high, thin, pale, and 55 years of age. Mr. Thomas Moore, the celebrated Irish poet, is much recovered.—Limeriek Chronicle. Mr C. G. Green, jun., the celebrated aeronaut, after visiting and ascending in all the principal cities in the north of Germany, arrived in London on Monday night, via Ostend. FRIGHTFUL SUICIDE.—On Wednesday evening Mr. Payne held an inquest at Mr. Cross's, the George, Beech street, Barbican, on the body of Mr. Benjamin Henry Croot, aged 59, lately residing at No. 11, Bridgewater square. City police-constable, No. 15, said that on the evening of Sunday last, about eight o'clock, he was sent for to the house in which the deceased resided, and found him lying on the floor of his bed-room, with blood flowing from his body. A sword was lying near him, and also a knife, both of which were besmeared with blood. Wil liam Lovell said that he had been in the service of the deceased about nine years. Whilst he was in the room adjoining his master's sleeping apartment he heard a heavy fall, and upon going into the bedroom he found deceased on the floor. He lifted him, and held him up until the police and two surgeons arrived. A sword was on a chair, and the point projected over the elbow. Mr. John Bellingham, Great Cambridge-street, Hagger stone, said deceased lately entered into partnership with him,' having left the service of Messrs. Harmer and Pearson for that purpose. He considered that the leaving his situation and entering into business had preyed on his mind. Mr. Chime, surgeon, said that he was called in to attend deceased on the night in ques tion. He found a wound in the region of the stomach, which he sewed up. Deceased rallied a little, and after wards expired. The wound might have been inflicted with either the knife or the sword. It appeared to have been commenced with the latter, and finished with the former.

THE PARISH OV ST. PAUL, COVENT -GARDEN, AND THE COMMISSIONERS OF WOODS AND FORESTS.—The announcement of the fact that it is the intention of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests to compel the parishioners of St. Paul, Covent-garden, to contribute largely to the expenses of constructing the projected new street from Cranbourne- street to New-street, C overkt garden, has excited some sensation in the latter parish, and measures are now being adopted for offering the most determined opposition to the measure. In the first place, the parishioners of St. Paul, Covent-garden com plain that they should be made to contribute, under any circumstances, to the expenses of carrying out what they maintain to be a great public, not local improvement, when they know th a t th e coa t of all the other contem plated metropolitan i m provements are to be paid ou t of the public money. B u t w h a t, they say, very materially aggravates their case, is the fact, that though about two thirds of the intended new street will be in the parish of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, the ratepayers there are not to be asked to advance one single sixpence towards the necessary funds. The parishioners of St. Paul's are to be saddled with a l arge p or tion of the expenses whic h will be incurred in c arr yi ng o ut the contemplated im provements, by means of a p aro chial rate of 6d. in the pound, to be levied by the o ve rseers of the parish. Th e rate would have been m u c h heavier but for the prince l y contribution of 10,0001. which the Duke of Bedford has just intimated his intention of making towards the ex penses of the intended improvements. The parish is in a state of great excitement on the subject, and a requisi • Lion is already in course of signature, calling on the vestry to get up a public meeting without delay, in order that the rate-payers may have an opportunity of making known to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests the injury and injustice which they allege is about to be done to them. DRATH OF A MARRIED FEISIALE BY FIRE.—Mr. Mills held an inquest on Tuesday, at the Globe, Derby street, King's-cross, on the body of Mrs. Sarah Hopkins, aged 58, wife of Mr. William Hopkins, poor-rate col lector of the parish of St. Pancras, living at 14, Munster street, Gray's Inn-road. About midday on Saturday, the deceased was cooking some chops in the kitchen, when her dress suddenly ignited, and notwithstanding her screams, before her husband could g et down to her as sistance, she was enveloped in flames, and frightfully burnt over the arms, neck, and various parts of the per son. A surgeon was soon called in, but the injuries were such as to cause her death on the following morn ing. Verdict, "Accidental death." LIVERPOOL, NOVEMBER 17.

IMPORTATION or TURTLE.—A vessel, arrived at the port of Liverpool from Nassau, New Providence, has brought an extensive cargo, consisting of furniture and dye woods, cocoa-nuts, arrow-root, &c., and the large quantity of 184 barrels of forbidden fruit, which is said to be now made available for preserving, in a similar manner to orange marmalade, and which will account for the extensive importations of the article at the present time, and 36 turtle, the produce of that quarter, of pine apple celebrity. The reason of our noticin g this arrival in this especial manner is that there is in connection with it a circumstance of perhaps unprecedented occur rence, viz., the loss or abandonment of 50 turtles, which large number had been thrown overboard, in consequence, it is presumed, of the bad weather experienced on the passage from the West Indies to this country. The loss consequent upon such a course must have been consider able, independently of the peculiarly interesting nature of the article, and particularly at the present time, when, if they had been predestined to take a part on a late festive occasion, the loss and inconvenience caused by their absence, must have inevitably been, not to speak it profanely, calamitous. ELECTRIC TELEGRAPHS.—Yesterday, a deputation waited on the Court of Sewers, at Guildhall, to make an pplication for permission to lay down the electric tele graph in a part of the city of London. It was stated in the court that for the protection of the City it had been enacted that the consent of the commissioners of sewers was necessary to lay down any pipe or tubes under any street in the City. The deputation stated that the object of the company was to unite the various lines of rails by means of an electric telegraph, and that it had been in tended to make the central terminus at the West-end, but it was now resolved to make it at Lloyd's, and the company requested pei mission to take up the pavement for that purpose. At present the plans of the company were not matured sufficiently to enable the deputation to enter into details. The commissioners, after delibera tion, granted the required permission, and Lloyd's, therefore, will be the great central terminus of all tele graphic communication. A MAN SHOT BY HIS COMPANION.— A fatal acci dent occurred ! at Redditch on Monday morning last. Two young men, named Thomas and Bartleet, accom panied by several others, were out shooting rabbits, Bartleet using the gun. While at a rick, a rabbit started out, and Thomas, who was on another side of the rick, called out, " here he is," and sprang forward to strike it. At the same moment the rabbit appeared in sight of Bartleet, who instantly pulled the trigger, and lodged the contents in the right side of Thomas's head, which caused his immediate death. An inquest has been held on the body, and a verdict of " Accidental death " re t urned.—Birmingliani Gazette. „.7WRECKING.—More than twenty persons have been summarily committed to Bodmin gaol with hard labour, for from three to five months, for plundering from the brig Samaritan and her cargo washed in by the sea, wrecked off St. Eval, near Padstow, during the late gales. —Falmouth Packet. ------------- , MARKET NEWS--( YESTERD AI CORN-EXCETANC, Z. rata m ode ._ We ha‘ e . 6 ain to report the arrival of a very tAnai supply of English Wheat for this market.
