YOUNG. The arguments on this part-heard appeal were resumed this morning. The question in the case is on• totally devoid of any interest, relating to the construction of a power in a Scotch deed of entail. (The case had net concluded when our Evening Edition Went to press.) PRIVY COUNCIL, May 15. gt The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat to-day to hear appeals. The Lords present were, the Master of the Rolls, the Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce, the Judge of the Admiralty Court, and the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lan caster. BLUCIE V. RACKHAIL-JUDGMENT. Their Lordships' gave judgment to-day in this case, the arguments on which were concluded on Wednesday last. Their Lordships' affirmed the judgment of the Court below with costs. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, May 14. (Sittings at .Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice Wicurrsux and Common Juries.) NOOPER JI`DONALD. This action was brought by a newspaper agent to recover from the defendant the amount of a bill for advertisements inserted in the London papers for the announcement of a pro ject which was called the Cape of Good Hope Western Rail way, which was brought forward in August last, and of Which the defendant was a provisional committeeman. The amount of the bill 7:45 4.50/., and it was made up of money paid by the plaintiff for the insertion of the advertisements, and of a demand for his personal trouble in procuring the insertion. Mr. KNOWLES (with whom was Mr. Francillon, stated plaintiff's case to the jury in a short , b ut amusing ad- Colonel Lothian Dixon was then called and sworn—He said that he held an office under the Crown at the Cape, and that he was a director of the project in question. The wit ness, by the direction of the defendant himself, caused the defendant's name to be inserted in the list of the committee, which he attended upon one occasion. Cross-examined —Major M'Donald, upon having been ap pointed a provisional committeeman, declared himself dis satisfied, as he had expected to be made a director. This was, however, after his appointment as a provisional committee man had actually been made. Mr. Oldershaw, the attorney of the company, stated that all the insertions had been either directed or sanctioned by the witness and by the board. Another witness proved that the plaintiff had paid every farthing of the bill to the several newspapers in which the advertisements had been inserted. Mr. HAYWARD appeared upon the part of the defendant, and contended that the authority which the defendant had given Colonel Dixon to put his name upon the committee was coupled with the condition of hie being made a director, and that, not having been so appointed, he took no further trouble upon the subject. In such circumstances the Learned Counsel contended that the evidence was not sufficient to establish the liability of the defendant. The jury, under the direction of the Learned Judge, found a verdict fur the plaintiff for the whole amount. May 15. (Sittings at Nisi Prins, at Guildhall, before Mr. Justice Wtoirrmax, and Common Juries.) The greater part of the day was occupied in disposing of undefended cases. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, May 15. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, Guildhall, before Mr. Justice ERLE - and Common Juries.) MSS v. DAVIS. This was a case brought on for the purpose of trying and deciding a technical law point. The facts of the case were these :—The plaintiff waz attorney in a case in which he obtained a judgment against a person named Carroll for a debt of 2401., and for which he had been arrested and given in to the custody of the defendant, who is high sheriff of the county of Radnor ; that Carroll was brought up to London under a habeas in the month of February, 1846, in the custody of the sheriff's officer, and that while in London he was permitted to go about town and transact some business, and went to Hampstead on the Sunday, but was not at any time out of the custody of the officer. The allegation of the plaintiff was, that this con stituted an escape in law from the custody of the sheriff, and the case was now brought before the Court merely for the purpose of having the point decided. The case was one in which there was a great deal of dry law argument, and had not terminated when our report left. , ECONDARIES' COURT, May 15. (Before Mr. Secondary JAMES.) ROBERTSON V. HENLET. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is the proprietor of the Railway Record, to recover of the defendant, who is one of the directors of the Direct London and Exeter Railway Company, the sum of 124 10s., for newspapers sup plied by his order. The defendant pleaded, in abatement, that five other persons being the Managing Committee of the Company, were also liable. Mr. Payne appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Parry for the defendant. The case lasted a considerable time, but the facts were very simple. It appeared that, in September last, the de fendant went to the Railway Record office and requested a paragraph respecting the Company to be inserted, aad at the saline time ordered 500 copies of the paper to be sent to the solicitor to the Company, and he wrote the order on the back of his own card. The question raised was, whether the order had been given by the defendant individually, or whether there was anything to lead the plaintiff to suppose he was dealing with the Company. The SECONDAILT, in summing up, said that if the jury considered the plaintiff was dealing with the Company, it was incumbent on the defendant to set out the names of all the parties liable, and not a part, which might leave those parties to plead that others ought to have been sued. The jury gave a verdict for the amount claimed. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, May 14. (Before the CHIE7 COMMISSIONER and Mr. Commissioner POLLOCK.) IN RE THE REV. CHARLES WETKERELL. The rule in this case for the rescinding of the Testing order was specially appointed for this day. The insolvent, whose name is unfortunately too notorious, obtained a rule nisi on the ground that the petitioning cre ditor, Mr. Teurmott, a coal-merchant, of Bedford -street, Strand, had been induced to take that step by means of fraudulent representations on the part of other persons, and that he was new willing that the Testing order should be annulled. To-day Mr. Cooke appeared in support of the rule, and Mr. Nicholls and Mr. Dowse to show cause. . Affidavits on the part of the respondents were read from fie-feral parties —one of whom, William Revell, a creditor of the insolvent's to the extent of 1041., swore that he had applied to Mr. Thurmott to obtain the vesting order, that the insolvent's estate might be preserved for the creditors. He also stated that he had seen Mr. Thur. mott's attorney ( Mr. Moseley) on the subject. The affi davit of John Itynde Cooke stated that the insolvent was in custody at the suit of Mr. Langston for the sum of 14,4841., the amount of a judgment in an action of covenant on the post-nuptial settlement of deponent's wife and insol vent's daughter; that the insolvent had named as trustee Lord Glenelg, without that nobleman's sanction, who refused to act; and, consequentiy, Mr. Langston, deponent's brother in-law, was the only trustee; that insolvent's daughter, on obtaining her majority, had become entitled to a fortune of about 21,000/., which had been expended by the insolvent in about two years; that 14,480/. is the amount admitted by the insolvent to be due to his daughter as part of the sum obtained from her, and it was settled that seques tration should issue against the insolvent's living at Byfield, Northamptonshire ; that the insolvent had en deavoured to avail himself of an inaccuracy to the at testation of the warrant of attorney given as collateral secu rity; that insolvent had brought a writ of error against Mr. Langston, but dep onent was advised and believed that there . were no grounds for it, and that it had only been brought by the insolvent for the purpose of annoyance. Mr. NICtioLLs commenced his arguments against the rule by 'urging that the best eviden ce of the motives by w h ich the creditor had been actuated in obtaining the vesting order, viz., his own, had not been produced. It was insinuated that King and Cooke had induced him by fraudulent representa tions to obtain the vesting order, and that he was now willing to its being annulled. The next best evidence, that of Mr. Moseley, the petitioning creditor's attorney,. was not forth coming, and the whole case rested upon , ref ined and subtle statements. The COUIT intimated that the affidaTita of the gentleman teferred to were highly desirable. Mr. CooRE hoped the Court would permit him to put them in now. Mr. Commissioner POLLOCK said the insolvent knew what he had asserted, and should have been prepared to support his statement. The affidavit of Mr. Thurmott and Ur. Moseley could not be received now. The Learned CHIEF CO3I3IIBSIONER expressed his opinion that the absence of these affidavits was conclusive, and com pelled the Court to dismiss the rule. Mr. Commissioner Pou.ocx concurred. Mr. Nicnoi.t.s applied for costs from the estate. Mr. Commissioner PoL that Mr. Th urinott had been t.oc said the Court cou ld not forget it. set in *ad that all th e d e t a i ning creditors e m v , el , etiol Inbr, Langstony. some were oa l willing that the v es ti ng order should bu rescind e d .

On Saturday, John Bannister and Bentham Fabian, the parties charged with the forgery of railway scrip, were again placed at the oar for re-examinati on . Mr. Alderman Gial:is having taken his seat, the ca se against the prisoners was called on. Mr. Clarkson said tie had to ask fur a further remand of the prisoners for some days, in order to complete certain inquiries now in progress. Mr. Duane said Mr. Richards was in attendance, and ready to give all the information in his power. Mr. Clarkson was aware of that, but, as counsel fur the prosecution, he was not at present ready to proceed with the case. lie should be able to prove that a press for printing had been found on the premises of the pri soner Fabian, in Gower-place, and should call a gentleman who printed the bona fide scrip of the Buckinghamshire, Oxford, Bletchley, and Junction Railway, with the Londun and Birmingham Railway, who would prove that the scrip now produced was spurious, and a forgery. Another ground for a re =and was, that the secretaryof the company could not . possibly attend to day. If the examination was post.. posed for a short period, it was expected must important evidence would be obtained, not only as related tci the prisoners individually, but as affecting other parties whom it was unnecessary to name. He thought, for the purposes of public justice, that a remand was absolutely necessary, and therefore he asked the worthy Alderman to postpone the inquiry until - Tuesday week, the 2d of June. The prisoners would not . be inconvenienced by a remand, as they could not be tried during the present sessions of the Crin p l ossiblyCourt, the grand jury haring been discharged thisinnaalorning.

When outside the door, the scuttliug continued, and the deceased and Wilcox fell. While or, the ground prisoner kicked the deceased on the nose, and the blood gushed from it. He rolled off the man WU oax, who afterwards picked him up, and after some further strug gling, the deceased was persuaded to go home. The kick inflicted a great gash on the nose. The surgeon (Mr. Baker) attended the de ceased, but In about a week after he was attacked by lock jaw, and notwithstanding every medical attention was given, he died. He would not swear that lock jaw was positively the result of the wound, but he thought it the probable cause. One witne,s deposed that some time before the quarrel the prisoner threatened to injure the deceased by fair means w foul. Mr. Justice COLTMAN intimated that there was no case for the jury, and the prisoner vas discharged. ASSAULT ON TILE PO:ACE.— William Regan, an Irish absentee of a peculiarly forbidding aspect, was placed at the bar, charged with feloniously wounding Francis White, a policeman, while he was in the execution of his duty. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Clerk conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Baldwin attended for the defence. Francis White, 103 H, said that on the night of the 19th of April he heard a cry in New street, Whitechapel, and on running there he found the prisoner, who was beating constable 185. The prisoner had a policeman's staff in his hand, and when witness went in to his companion's rescue, he received a blow from behind with a staff, which stunned him and caused the blood to flow profusely. He re covered, and received a second blow from the prisoner on the fore head, which struck him down insensible. When he recovered he found himself leaning against some area railings, and heard the pri soner say to some of his friends, " Throw the b--- over the rail ings." The prisoner was taken into custody, and witness was sup ported to the station-house. He was afterwards under the care of the surgeon for nearly three weeks. He was positive that the blow on the brow was strnck by the prisoner. He could not say who struck the first blow on the side of his head. Police-constable 198 II said, that on the night in question there was a great disturbance in Sugar-loaf-court, Commercial-street, Com mercial-road. He went there to quell it, and took a man named Dennis Ragan into custody. When in New-street, the prisoner was attempted to be rescued, and two policemen (one of whom was the last witness, White) earns to his assistance. He saw White struck by a man named Sullivan in the first instance, and also a blow given by the prisoner on the forehead. Both blows were struck with a policeman's truncheon. - Mr. BALDwrie, having addressed the jury for the prisoner, Mr. Baron ALDERSON summed up, and the jury, after retiring for some time, returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty. Dennis Regan, IVilliant Regan (the last prisoner), John While, and John Sullivan, were placed at the bar, charged with assaulting other constables on the same evening. The evidence adduced was nearly similar to that brought forward in the last case. Mr. Baldwin, for three of the prisoners, and Mr. O'Brien for Sulli van, addressed the jury. Mr. Baron ALDERSON slimmed up, and The jury returned a verdict of Guilty in each of the cases. The COURT sentenced William Regan and John Sullivan each to imprisonment with hard labour for two years. and Dennis Regan and Johia White each to one year's imprisonment with hard labour. 43,145 NEW COURT. (Ttefore Alderman FAREBROTUEC and the ComstoN SERGEANT.) Win. Ricketts and Daniel Johnson, two young men, aged about 18, were indicted for stealing 19 live tame fowls, the property of Wil liam Leeson, Brixton. Mary Bishop, servant to the prosecutor, saw the fowls on the afternoon of the 13tli of April, all safe and well ; but, about nine o'clock the same evening a policeman called at the house, and, in consequence •f what he said, she went out to examine the hen house, and found it empty, and all the fowls gone. The witness identified two of the fowls produced in Court as the property of her master. 8,305 .2,137 George Weston, policeman, said he was on duty about nine o'clock that night, and saw the prisoners come out of Leeson's premises, Ricketts with a bag under his arm, and Johnson with a bag on his shoulder. lie suspected them, and followed both and took them into custody; when, in the bag wkich Ricketts carried, were found eight fowls, and seven m that carried by Johnson, besides two fowls in the arms of each. 3,098 5,365 22,99 50,094 29,859 They were both found guilty, and Ricketts was sentenced to four months' imprisonment, and hard labour ; and as Johnson had been cbilvicted before for a like offence, he was sentenced to one year's im prisonment, and hard labour. John Edwards and John Botsford, were placed at the bar, indicted for stealing 5 lbs. of lead, the property of William Cubitt and Co., the masters of Botsford. Mr. Cubitt's foreman said, in consequence of suspicion excited in his mind, by hearing that something not right was going on, he went down on Saturday morning, the 19th April, to the Privy Council buildings, Dowsing-street, and about seven o'clock saw Botsford un lock the door, and let the prisoner Edwards out, when he had them both taken into custody. There was a piece of lead 50 lbs. weight, that produced in Court, found on the person of Edwards, inside his trowse•rs, and bound to his person by a body belt. Police -constable 182 A, corroborated the foreman's evidence. Botsford, when taken into custody, said, " This comes of being per suaded." 20.854 3,085 21,820 40,505 8,570 22,091 75,66:3 The jury found a verdict of Guilty against both prisoners. Edwards was sentenced to four months and Botsford to nine months' imprisonment, and hard labour. 2 ,475 6,29.5 FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. DIVIDENDS DECLARED. H.

JOHN TALBOT.—We regret to learn that letters have bran received from Naples from the Earl and Coun tess of Shrewsbury, conveying the melancholy news of the death, in that capital, of Mr. John TaPaot, nephew of the Earl of Shrewsbury, and heir presumptive to that ancient earldom. The Noble Earl and bot's health, which had occasioned the most pa i nfu l anx i e ty to the Countess have h a d c h arge of their nephew since the death of his father, the H ou. George Henry Talbot, in 1839, and in the last autumn they left this Country for Italy, for the benefit of Mr. Tal family. The de ceased was only son of the late Hon. George Henry Talbot and Au gusta, daughter of Sir Horace St. Paul, Bart., remar ried to the Hon. Craven Eitzhardinge Berkeley, M.P. He was in his lith year.
