IPIRIT OF Vet pITELTe JOURNALS In an article upon the state of affairs at Lisbon, et late member of the Constiintionnet, from the mis apprehending, probably, the fundamental principle of the British policy in relation to Portugal, asks, " How can any one suppose that if Don 31i is pro claims hi mse lf ri ng of that country, it s without c '''nsent of England? He scent to Portugal direct from London—the British Ambassador ae oompanied him on his voyage ; and should the Prince Regent attempt to put the Crown upon his head, it would be in (teen defiance of rnen-of 'war and troops which Englond . has at Li s bon. It seams impossible f o r the Britisn Cabinet to escape :from this dilemma; it has either been an accomplice of the Apostolical party, or their dupe. Let Eng. land make choice, therefore, between the imputation of guilty conspiracy with the usurper, or of want of fereeight, nay, absolute imbecility, of either of which ohe stands convicted ;" (that is, if, the Govern ment of Pedro be actually overthrown.) "At all events, the unfortunete Portuguese would be indebted to Englami for the immeasurable evils which they must in that case suffer," Now, we do not deny that the Constitationnel has here made out a sort of prinut fiecie case againet the; Bri tish Government, which it might regal: a little more candour than can be expect :A from a French editor in. speaking of this money to refrain from at mice putting forward, and more reflection than he night think it worth tohile to bestow on the analyeie of any plausible charge against England, when the result of the examination might be the discovery of its falsehood. It is admitted that the Portuguese Ptiove left the shores of Devoetshire direct for Lis bon ; but equally true that he had, for several years before, been a resident of Austria, and under Prince Mettentich's tuition. It is also understood that St. .James's was not the only court which had been vi sited by Den Miguel on his journey home. He niaie likexise, a sojourn in the Pavillon Mar ean, it is asserted ; and unless it be Fart of the Regent's character that he should follow implicitly the counsels oliered to hho by the last individual to when he gives audience, we know not why the seeepicion of cri ninal partner ship in the scheme of despotism ; ead usurpation should fall upon the Government ate Ghoat Britain, rather than on the Royal circle of toe Tuileries. If the plot for violating a solemn oath,—for betraying a ',tiered trust,—for dethroning a ewe:elector and a trother,—for turning against that brother and So vereign the sword which he, Don Miguel, had sworn in the face of man and Heaven to wield by oirtue of his brother's authority, and to make tot instrument for maintaining the Crown of i-'ortu gal on the head of Pedro,--if, with well a caul dron of treachery and villainy, be mistimed that Miguel must have had foreign --we had :almost said preternaturol—assistance in com pounding it, why verily we think that three weird sister Courts might be found for th e occasion else nhereovithout dragging - that of George IV. into the spell-bound cavern of Hecate. If the plot for over turning the Charte cm:slit:1140;01e of Lisbon be an apostoiical contrivance, the. apostolical spirit does 'not flout ish here;—if Jesuits have concocted it, ehey are not in favour with the British Cot-mt or 'Cabinet ;—if it be engendered in the hate or fear of liberty, look every where but to Englarol, for such a mover of Jeenitical and tyrannical tevointion. But England sent her ships and lice minister to attend Don Micnel on his voyage. Allowed : it was Don Megoet, the delegate and subject of Don Pedro,-- 1 0 0 :e king Miguel, —not the usurper and the traitor. ft' Pedro, the friend of England, thought it safe to teitrust his brother with the government of domi ntons from which he for the 'time was sepa rated, was this country to condemn before hand such a display of fraternal coutielotteet, Or to resist such an 'exercise of lawfu: power e her own ally ? If England h - a , l her doubts, (we do not say duet she was froe from them), is there aeingle state itt Et_ rope that would not have exolzimed against such meddling and unbecomin g 'tyranny, as even the slightest effort to restrain the wishes of Don Pedro. But if the interests tot known feelings of Great Britain be considered 'for a :moment by the French editor, and compared with ,(not, indeed, the interests well understood, but) the sentiments cherished and ostentatiously avowed be some of the " august" among her neighbours, ere euepect that the accusation of " complicite," will not Sall exclusively on England. It may, perhaps, be otherwise with the question of" Who is the dupe ?" If England he so, she may take credit for a :time olicity, very far from dishonourable to her wisdom, in believing a Christian Prince, whoso numberless other obligations to rectitude were reinforced by fbe solemnity of religious ongagentents, and in presuming that e, temporal ruler would not be altogether blind to that policy on which depended tto less the thvieus welfare of his Goveenment, than the eventual safety of his term family and persvA, If, however, England has been the dupe of - 2!ilipel, the Pavillon Marsan may be well assured that the praise or blame of biting duped by any coo vtitutionsl promises from his Royal Highness oill scot he shared by it, or its august inhabitants. If the Portuguese Prince has been better understood .et the French Court than here; our neighbours are welcome to the triumph. Now-, for the conduct to he pursued by the British Government towards who may forcibly usurp the throne of Don Pedro, it ought to be understood that England did not send troops to Portugal to support any political system or form of government, bet solely to defend an ally from foreign invasion. The friendship ex isting between Great Britain and Portugal arises less from the principle of the Government than from the position of the weaker country, and front the scheme which, for more than 100 years, has kteen cherished between the Courts of Paris and Madrid, to merge the Monarch of the House of Bra -ganza in that of the second branch of the Bourbons. If, indeed, Don Miguel should now succeed in wresting he Crown of Portugal from his lawful Sovereign, the head of the House of Braganza, - and the ally of England, he reverses the natural position of his country and his own,—he becomes himself the tool of the Spanish House of Bourbon, and makes the kingdom her dependent; in which case we do not say what course it might become the honour of the British Government and the interest of the nation to follow. In such a case, should Pedro require front his Britannic Majesty, in virtue of their inti mate alliance, an effectual support of his sovereign rights, against the traitor who had sold himself and Portugal to a foreign enemy, that he might o p press the Portuguese people with imptinity,—this at least es clear enough, that the Court of the Tuilerie s , which invaded Spain, t o u ph o ld a tyrant, in his war against the national liberty, would have no pretext for appealing to the reason or the sympathies of m inkind, were Great Britain to employ her fleets and armies for the defence of Portuguese liberty— for the faith of treaties—for her own best interests— and for a usurper's downfitl. The Con.ditutionnel, however, need not fear that the laugh is yet against Great Britain.—Times. All doubt has been removed with re gar d t o th e intentions of Russia, by the receipt of an Extraor dinary Supplement to the Journal of St. Petcrsburgh, of March I I, which contains the Declaration of the Russian Government, in answ er to the Turkish Ma nifesto. We now know that Russia has avowed her determination to seek without delay redress be . her arms for the wrongs of which she has to com plain on the part of Turkey. She rests her justi rication on the Turkish Manifesto itself, w hi c h openly avows an intention to disregard all treaties, and which, besides, contains appeals to the subjects of Russia, of a hostile character; and she enume rates various acts en the part of the Porte of open violation of subsisting treaties, and of every prin ciple of international law. For these wrong s ? she will demand a complete and prompt ceparatiolt ; and while she pursu e s w ith h er Alli es t h e negocia tious necessary to give effect to the Treaty of Lon don, she will find means to obtain, with the aid (!I God, this indispensible reparation. As it is of se much importance to hare ti COTR:(4 understandipg the object which Russia proposed to effect by force of arms, we shall here give the passage of the St. Petersburgh Jourxed having reference to it, in the original " De Nis antes, des provocations si graves et les mcsures qu'elles necessitent, font naltre les plus vils regrets. 111 - ais les griefs que la Porte semble avoir pris a ache de nowt fournir, dcmandent, d'autre part, true cerrTßle et prompts reparation, et la Russie, t.nt Cn poursuivant avec sea AEA les nCgoeittioes qu'exige l'accomplissement du Traite de Londrts, En se conformant it la lettre et I I'esprit de cet acte dam; tout ce qui concerue son execution, saura obtenir, avec I'aide de Dieu, cette reparation indispensable ; ella saura assurer au commerce de la INler Noire l'ityriolab!, liberte qui forme la premiers condition de -en , !,..IStence, ses Traites arec la Porte, 1.2 respeo.t is fixit6 dont ils out besoin, a ses sojets toutes les compensations aux. quelles ils twit dlto'it de pretendre." WY-.! not mistaken in anticipating that Russia Would adopt the precise course which she has taken, Having a distinct cause of war of her own, it *as her option either to forego availing het-tell' of it, and to confine her efforts to co-operation with the Allies in carrying t'ile Treaty of London, into effect; or she ttr;el':: act under the Treaty of London, and at tl!'t.e same time seek reparation by arms for her own separate wrongs. The Treaty of Lendbn could be no bar to her prosecution of hri• own claims, any more than they could tnder that Treaty call upon the Allies, after the object of it—namely, the eman cipation of Jreece—was effected, to aid her in en ferei the Treaty of Ackerman. We observed, tot! that if Russia were determined to in!:!ade Turkey she would announce that detr:tY,ination at once, in order to prevent the po:;sibility of remonstrance, and to intiarisjate other Powers, ‘yho might dread the respor.sibility of challenging the measure, with a full knowledge of the consequences to which .t•.2li proceedimg could hardly fail to lead, The Russian Court has never shown itr,(ll' deficient in dexterity, and we were, therefore, almost certain that she would show thiq !le could dispense with the advice of her rit4gtbours, when that advice might not be ac ceptable to her. Accordingly, we find that the pub lication of the declaration followed so closely bn tbe heels of the despatches to her Ambaslador here as to render all remorbstrane nnayailing. It will be seen that Russia toles a convenient latitude in the enumeration of the objects for which she seeks redrew by arms. The possession of Constantinople may not be too much for the securing the trade of the Bosphorus, while it is in her power et any time to declare herself satisfied with the security offered, whatever it may be. \V may now, therefore, soon expect to hear 'Of Russian movements.—Mornin g Cbronkk, The news from St. Petersburgh is a corapltte an swer to the cant with which the ptihiic have been pestered for the hitt on the part of the Press, and some oi"the Parliamentary orators, respecting the pc&:, of Mr. Canning. No wonder the Corn Question was put off last evening ; for the Duke of Wellingtun and Mr. Peel would have something else to talk ab ou t th an th e C o r n Q uest io n . We should think that the holders of the bits of paper called Russian, Austrian, and other Bonds would not be very comfortable when they received this Russian inte!ligence. Some of them, no doubt, received the intelligence several days ago, and their time was probably fully employed in getting iid of as many as they could of the Russian, Aristrian, &c. .securities! 'When the time arrives that no more loans can ik raised, directly or indirectly, for those Continental States, then no more divi domk will be paid, and then every body will exclaim when the thing is blown up, "who world hai)c thought it." That theißussians appear determined to seize Constantinopk there can, we think,' be no doubt; Mr, Canning's policy prepared the way for them at Navarin, by the Allied Powers crippling • the nav; I power of 'Turkey. We are in a singular predicament—we dare not go to war, und the Rus siaus, French, and Austrians know it. Our Debt prevents us from going to war. But if the latter were not the case, we could not, after the exhibi tion ut Navarin, oin the Turks against the Rus sians. So much for entering into treaties with other nations. The Chinese policy is best, of having nothing to do with other nations. They neither receive nor send Ambassadors. They . are wise. NegociPtors make sad business of it, take them in general—that is, if they do anything.—Morning Herald. Sir Joseph Yorke, on Thursday night, in the Mouse of Commons, made some very proper re marks, on presenting a petition against the erection of two bridges at Lambeth. Sir Joseph F aid, that most propositions for building bridges arose from parties interested, as, " Lawyerg, Architects, Stone masons, Bricklayers, and others." Sir Joseph a-as quite right in that assertion. At the same time there would be nothing wrong even in this, provided the parties so interested were to lay proper estimates before the public, previous to the application for the Act of Parliament or the beginning to build the bridge. But, in general, the estimates laid before the public are only to one-half--or, in some instances, one-third or one-fourth—the real cost of the bridges. And these false estimates are deli vered in,in order to induce people to partwith their too ney as shareholders. It is almost the invariable practice with architects and builders to deliver in estimates, which they know, at the time of delivering them in, to be false. It is the practice of these people to delude. That a bridge is wanted to connect Lambeth with Westminster, there can he no doubt; and we should he glad to see such a bridge built ; but as to having a single share in such bridge, we would not even as a gift; for, at the present price charged for building bridges, there is no toll that could be levied that would, in our opinion, bring a man one per cent, for his money. As such a bridge is wanted, we should wish that the Parliament would enter upon it; and that its expense should form part of the expenses of the country. But a bridge, under such circum stances, ought to be opened free of toll; and if the Vauxhall-bridge proprietors suffered in consequence, why then let the public take their bridge at prime cost, and throw open that bridge too. This mode of spending money on the part of the nation would, we think, be more beneficial than either sending troops to countries to secure to people Constitutions that they do not want, or exporting the poor, or educating the poor.—lbid. The Corn Resolutions have been delayed until Monday, and we are sincerely sorry for the cause— the indisposition of the President of the Board of Trade, by whom they were to be moved in the House of Commons. Mr. Grant has for some time past been in a delicate state of health, yet was ready, not withstanding, to have come down to the House last night rather than that any inconvenience should arise out of the temporary postponement of his im portant motion. Mr. Secretary Peel, with his usual sound sense and correct feeling, would not allow the Right Honourable Gentleman to incur so great a risk for so small an advantage. The secret of the Ministers' intentions has not been kept so profoundly as not to be guessed at—we do not say ascertain e d— an d one o f our contempo raries of last night informs us of their nature pretty distinctly. The Bill which they purpose to introduce will, according to that authority, be precisely the same as that which dropped in the House of Lords last Session, because nobody would be at the trouble of upholding it—the Bill, in a word, of Mr. Canning, with the Duke of Wel lington's amendments. We hope there is some mistake in this account. Mr. Canning very evi dently gave the landed interest as unfavourable a Bill as he could. Had he been more independent of their support they would . have been more severely treated. It was not expected that, from the more vigorous Administration of the Duke of Wellington, they were to receive the least, which, by any de gree of management, they could be prevailed on to accept ; for it must be recollected that the House of Lords agreed to his modified Bill only in despair of getting anything better.—New Time:.

BIRNIE and Mr. l‘lisi salt:LL, upon the charge of attempting to provoke hie brother-in-law, J. P. Fury, to a breach of the peace, by sending him a challenge to fight a duel. As both parties appeared to more in a rank of life where such polite alter natives are seldom heard ot; Sir R. I.lnonE asked the com plainant who and what he was? The complainant replied, that he was a hairdresser, residing. in thity-lane. Defendant. —Re is a common shaver, your Worship, that enaves men for a penny on a Saturday. Sir R. Bnatim—Well, suppose he is, you have no right to put him in fear of his life. Pray what trade or business do you follow ? "lam a soldier, your worship," said the defendant, standing erect, and looking down upon the com plainant. . •, . • . " HN mat' v3oldier," , retaliated the hairdresser, " but he Mtv: onty a brass-thunder, your Worship." " Well, let us hear your complaint," said Mr. MINSHULL; " you swear that this person has attempted to provoke, you to fight a duel ?". "He has, your Worship;" i'eplied the complainant, " and here the challenge he has sent me." Mr. MlNstiimi, was here handed a piece of paper, rather ,- ,uriously folded, the contents of which we transcribe ver batim, and the reading of which occasioned considerable merriment in the office:— " 26th March, 1828.

No doubt you mean pistols ; and although you think, perhaps, that you have evaded the law by your caution, yet the import of this letter is plain enough, and I am afraid I shall have to call upon you to find bail. Defendant—This than, your Worship, is married to my siste-, it is true; but he has disgraced her before marriage, and I will have satisfaction, or die for it. The defendant was ordered to find bail, in default of which he was locked up. QUEEN-SQUARE.---Mr. George Trent, of No. 63, Crawford-street, appeared before W. A. A.XurrE, E 5.1. in behalf of his friend Mr. Goodenough, of,Southamptons row, to answer the complaint of the driver of the hackney coach No. 1 13, for refusing to pay him his legal fare. The coachman stated that he was called off his rank in Adam-street, to take up a fare at a public-house in Sey mour-place. Mr. Goodenough, who was very ill, was assisted into his coach ) and Mr. Trent get in With him, and he drove them home to Southampton-row, Marylebone. His fare was 25., but they would only pay him Is. He had since called at the house, but he could not get his money, and he was forced to summon for a shilling. Mr. WHITE said that the coachman Was evidently en titled to 2s. which must be paid. Mr. Trent would inform his friend of the magistrate's decision. Wiitit —You were one of the party that rale in the coach, and that is sufficient; you must pay the shil ling, arid 2s. tid. for the damage done to the coach, to gether with the costs and the coachman's time. - Mr. Trent then retired, and had to Tay 13s. induct [rig costs. UNION4tALt.--Vesterday two young gentlemen of highly respectable connexions, one the son of a clergyman and the other of a merchant, were brought up from the Surrey watch-house, where they had been confined all night on a charge of stealing a watch in the pit of the Surrey Theatre, from the person of a Mr. Burrell, who gave his address Lant-strect, in the Borough. The fathers of the accused baying been made acqtaintej With the nature of the charge alleged against their sons, attended at the office during the examination. The complainant stated, that on the preceding night he went to the pit of the above theatre, accompanied by his wife, and had not been many minutes there when he pulled out his watch, which was then all safe. After having returned it into his fob, the crowd being very great, his wife advised him to be careful ) otherwise be would lose it. She had scarcely spoken the words when he felt for the watch, but found it was gone. On tnissing it he turned round and observed both the accused persons stand ing close to him ; and recollecting that they had "shuf fled" against him frequently in the course of the evening, he suspected that they were the thieves, and immediately called Hamilton, the constable ) who attends the theatre, and gave them into custody on a charge of stealing his watch. He added, that he accompanied the accused per sons to the watch-house, where the charge was committed to writing by Keyse, the superintendent, into whose custody they were given. Hamilton and Barnett, the two constables into whose charge time complainant gave thh accused in the theatre, stated that they searched them both, but found no watch in their possession except their own. The spot where all the parties stood in the pit was also examined, but the watch was not to he found. Mr. lIONy, on hearing the above statement, expressed considerable indignation at the conduct of the complainant, obsercing ihat there was not the slightest foundation for the charge be had alleged against them. The Magistrate then said, "In all probability your watch was taken from you by sonic expert thief, but then you were not jastified in accusing the young gentleimen of such an offence, and giving them into custody." The clergyman, whose son eves in chstody j described that he had just kit coleg,te, and that he was incapable of committing such an offence as that with which he was charged. He represented that it was impossible to describe the state of horror and alarm into which his family were thrown on hearing that his son was in custody on a charge of committing a robbery. The father of the other prisoner was so exceedingly af fected on being made acquainted with the nature of the accusation against his son, that he shed teats While describ ing the youno- matt's excellent moral character, and th e itn poidbility of his having been concerned iM such an offence as that imputed to him. The complainant said that he was sorry now for what he had (lone. The MAGISTRATE having directed the young men to 1)e discharged, their fathers insisted On haying, the address of the complainant, in nrtici., 1g th6y expressed, of punishing him for his conduct towards their sons.

Two single and one double line of numbers areiset in subdivided cards on the face of the instrument ; the mid dle circle, which is the moving piece, has both edges di vided for the convenience of acting with the inner and outer eircks,:and a scale of estimation is arranged by double lines of figures, for multiplication, division, and common proportion. The principle is very simple, the correctness of the calculations demonstrated, and the in strument cheap and portable.

A Meeting was held lately in Liverpool, 011 the subject of that odious tax—the receipt Stamp Tax. We wish that every city and town in the kingdom would meet and pour in their petitions to the House of Commons fur the abolition of that most vexatious and impolitic tax, which produces so little to the revenue. We would have the country to tease the Duke of WeLLINGTON and Mr. Goounix); into a compliance with its wishes. We are no enemies to taxation, but, on the contrary, friendly to it, especially considering the immense debt that Mr. PITT has left us as a l egacy , an d t h e necess i ty there i s for k ee ping up both a very large army and natty. But this tax is so . little producti ve an d so vexat i ous, that, in the language o f Sir WILLIAM CERTIS, we would have the whole of the kingdom have—" Along pull, a. strong pull, and a pull altogether," and oblige the Duke and the Chancellor of the Exchequer t 9 give way. LAW INTELLIGENCE. ADMIRALTY COURT, MARCH 28. Elie CAtIIERINE, OF DOVER: This was a case of collision. The Catherine, the owner of which was the party sued, was a lugger pilot-boat of Dover. On the Ist of March, 1827, whilst following the Willielmuua, a Hamburgh galliot, to endeavour to make a bargain with the foreigner for piloting, she ran down the Dart, a smaller pilot boat, of Deal, and one of the Dart's hands was drowned. The case has created a surprising inte rest at the two ports, on account of the animosity subsisting between the respective pilots, and from its being alleged by the Dart's people, and pleaded in the cause, that the collision arose not from negli gene*, merely on the part of the master and crew of the Catherine, but from deliberate intention to do the Dart an injury. One of the witnesses in the cause deposed that Davison,D the master and owner of the Calkerine, had declared, with an oath, that if the Deal boats interfered with him (or words to that effect), he would give them his stein. Sir CHRISTOPHER ROBINSON said that the Court, upon a consideration of all the facts and circum stances, were of opinion that the collision between the vessels was accidental, arising chiefly from the Dart's being unskilfully placed ; and that when she was seen by the Catherine, they were too close for the latter to avoid her. The COURT accordingly dismissed the owner o; the Ccatheri►ae from the suit, with costs. LENT ASSIZES. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK,Bcn 26 John Bowler was indicted for forging a certain will, purporting to have been made by one Samuel Knight, on the 4th of February„ in the 7th year of the reign of his present Majesty, with intent to de fraud William Knight. Mr. Justice BAYLEY summed up the case, and the Jury found the prisoner—Not Guilty. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—LEICESTER, MARCH 27. CII:flIGE OF RAPE. Ccorge Smith, aged 23, was indicted for assault ing Rachel Soars, at the parish of Loughborough, on the sth of October last, and violating her person against her will. The prosecutrix, a slight young woman, about 17 years of age, stated that she lived with her father and mother at Loughborough, and worked at a yarn mill. On the evening of the sth of October last, as she was returning home from work, at about eight o•clock, she met the prisoner nearly opposite the Boots Inn. He put his arm round her neck, and asked her if she was going home ? She said she was, to be sure. He insisted that she should not go home ; and putting one arm round her 1.-aist, and taking hold of her arm with his other hand, he forc ed her along the street, by the entry where her • father lived, and then along the rest of the street until they came to a lane. All this time she struggled against hint with all her force. It is about 300 yards from her father's to the lane. He forced her along the lane, which is about three quarters of a mile in length, and across three fields. He took her over a stile into the fields. There was a gate there, between the bars of which he thrust her head, and then putting his face against hers he kept her in that position while he indecently treated her person. All this time, she was screaming and calling upon her mother and her leader (of the congregation to which she belonged) to come to her protection. He then forced her across the fields, and into a hovel, where he consummated his purpose. She made all the re sistance in her power, and never ceased screaming out, and calling upon her mother and her leader.— After he had abused her, lie told her she must not tell her mother; she said she would; and he replied, she would not be such a fool. After they came out of the house, they met a man named White, who told her that her mother was looking for her, and she went the rest of the way home with him. On her return home, she acquainted her mother with the marine': in ‘vhich she had been ill used by the prisoner. To corroborate the prosecutrix's testimony, White was called, who stated, that seeing her and the pri soner together at the corner of her father's entry, and knowing him to be a bad character, be caution ed her not to go with him. He afterwards followed them to see what they would be at; and when he came near the stile he heard them talking. Ile overheard her say to George, " It is a good thing to be religious,"—(laughter)—to which George as sented. Ile subsequently saw the prisoner take her from the field into the hovel, and heard her scream ing, but THA using any particular words. tic wem up to the hovel, and peeped under the door. The prisoner was then just getting up from the ground, and the girl continued screaming. Both this witness, And little girl named Clarke, whO having seen the prosecutrix with "Flash George" (as she designated the prisouer), went and told her mother of it, stated that there were people about the street, and lights in the windows at the time, and in other partienlars contradicted the pro secutrix's statement; upon which The Loan CHIEF' BARON stopped the trial, ob saving-, that although the prisoner was evidently a bad character, yet that it would be dangerous, in the highest degree, to convict any man upon such testimony as that given by the prosecutrix, who, it was quite clear, had not shown that kind of reluc tance to go with this man, which she had stated. The Jury returned a verdict of'" Not Guilty." Elias Armstrong, Mary ilrmstron,,a, his wife, and Jane Cooley,wePe indicted for robbing Thomas Southernwodd of a pottet-book cdutuining notes to the amount of 471. The Jury revned a verdict of " Not Guilty." NORFOLK CIRCUIT—BURY ST. EDMUNDS, MARCII 27. PoAstry V. WILCOX; This was an actin brbiight by the plaintiff, a ladies' shoemaker residing in London, against the defendant, a Clergyman and Rector of the parish of Little Stouham, in this county, to recover a com pensation in damages for an alleged libel. The case which occupied the whole day, involved a compli rated detail of Pacts utterly Uninteresting to any but the parties, arising out of a variety of pecuniary trans actions and matters of account which had taken place between them for a series of years. Among other dealings which they had, the defendant had sold the plaintiff an 'estate in Little ..;toriliam for 8,2501., with an agreement of re-purchase for an unlimited time, but which agreement was reduced to a teeth of seven years in the deed of conveyance. The plaintiff, having met with difficulties in his business, found it necessary to raise money by the re-sale .of thi.A! estate; and his attorney, who was also the at torney to a Mr. Roberts, a Mortgagee for the property, wrote to Mr. Wilcox about it, and stated that the plaintiff' would give him the first offer of the estate, although his time forrepurchasingit had expired. The defendant wrote two letters in answer to the attor ney, in one of which he stated that the clause in the conveyance, limiting his time to repurchase to seven years, had been surreptitiously introduced into the . deed by a thi r d person , {, if not with the privity of Mr. Borsley." In another letter he stated that his signature bad been procured by false representations; and he also asserted that a rent of 4001. a year, which an occupying tenant was then said to pays estate to Mr. Borsley, was a mere "decoy. The for the , attorney of the defendant had also served notice of a lien of 1,250/. on the property. Evidence was called on both sides to show the value of the estate—the highest fixing the rent at 100/.'a year, and the lowest at 3201. The lien of 1,250/., it also appeared, had been reduced before the notice to something above 300/. It was also a question whether the letters and the notices were libels or privileged communications. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff — Damages 4001. A stall in Winchester Cathedral is vacant by ,he death of the Rev, Alr.„BsittiAltD, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
