Warwick -square, Nov. 10. PROBE. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, WEDNEBDkY, Nov. 10. MAYOR OF PETEP,SFIELD. Mr. WARREN moved for a rule to spew cause, why an information in the nature of a quo war ranto should not be filed against Mr.JOHN NIEBREs, the Mayor of Petersfield, calling upon him to slim by what authority he exercises that office. Mr. WARREN stated, that it might be in the re collection of their Lordships, that he had made a similar application in Easter Term last, which was founded upon two objections to the. Election of the Mayor, who is chosen at the Court Leet, held within the Borough of Petersfield.. The first objection then was, that the Steward of the Court Leet, who is the Judge, had nominated and selected particular persons, whom he directed the Bailiff to summon as Jurors at the Leet, whereby be united it: himself the two ca pacities of Judge and Jury; as the persons so no initiated by him were persons who would, in all probability, strictly conform to his wishes ; the other objection was, that upon his Jury there was serving.a person who was not resiant within the jurisdiction of the Court. Upon one or both of these grounds, the Court had granted hint the Rule for the quo warranto An information in the nature of a quo warranlo had accordingly been filed against the Mayor, and Mr. Meeres, who then held that office, h a d thought proper to enter a disclaimer, and some parties, whom he knew ,not, had there upon applied to the Court tor. a Mandamus, to the Steward of the Court beet, to hold a Court for the Election of a new Alayor. At time Court Leet held in pursuance of this kVrit ot Mamlamimus, Mr. Meeres had been re-elected to s- rye the office of Mayor of th: Borough ; but ti , e Jury had been selected and nominated !o the Jidda by the Steward, precisely in the' sante manner as they had been at the tourer_ Court Leet, and upon this ground Mr. Warren stated tiot' he founded the pre sent application. At the Caurt , 1.3011 S ho had a right as resiauts and fr. erioltiecs witnin i.eE Bo rough to attend tii ; :re, prese,ced, and ob jected to the course , ;mist': ti by the. Steward, who nevertheless persisted in tt,e stone,. 'hough there was many attending to C,lO-_ who ti> etc duly qua lified, and willing to sotve. on the Jury. Pie Learned Counsel 'itch 'vent cot to say, that he believed then', was no principle so firmly esta blished • its our law, as t;. it the. functiolts of Judge and Jury litmus: ue kept distinct ; in the present instance th•tt pri!tciple li.ot been vio kted, for ii!thougli some of very extensive powers fummemly ves;uti in the Leet had now taller into d.sit,,!, yet may minor offences were still presentud at that Court, ofoNhich the Steward was the Judge. 11. would not, he said, occupy the time or their Lordships by detailing the powers and tunc;ions of the Court Leet, but he would merely refer them to m y L or d' Coke's commety on Statue IF. lienmy IV., whert.in it is expressly iaici down this... Juries shall be returned by Sheriffs anti of Franchises, " without " any denotnioar ion to the Sheriffs or Bailiffs of Franchises, before made by any prison of the " names .vlticis by uitir shoulo be impanelled," and capon :hese grounds he trusted that the rule would be granted. The COURT, after referring to the Statute, granted time Rule BAILIFF OF THE COURT LEET OF PETERSFIELD. Mr. WARREiN applied for a simil,ir ole,against Mr..3ot-1N EE, the Bailiff, to whom both of the objections formerly urged against Mr. MERREs applied, which the Court also wanted. NoVRMBER 9. CORONER'S INQUEST AT OLDHAM. THR KING V. EARNSHA %V AND TAYLOR. Mr. SCAaLeTT moved for a rule to strew cause why a Criminal I.•toitnation should not he filed against John Earoshaw .(Surgeon) and Joseph Taylor, for an attempt to prej..dice the minds of the Jury, summoned by Coroner at the In quest upon the body of John Lees, whose death has been the sithject or a long investigation in the neighbourhood of Manchester. The application was made on the affidavit of Mr. Farraud, the Coioner, and two oti , ers, stating that Taylor handed a paper to the Jury, written by s Earnshaw, in which a private opit.ion was ex pressed touching the death of the deceased. This was illegal, inasmuch as it was not a deposition taken by the Coroner. Mr. Scarlett detailed the circumstances which led to the Inquest, and the adjournnient from Oldham to Manchester. He also stated that Mr. Farrand's affidavit clearly proved the delivery of the paper to the Jul. Another affidavit imputed the writing to Earn shaw, but the Court were of opinion that they had not proof to warrant that conelhsion. Under all the circumstances, the Learned Counsel was al lowed to take a rule, calling upon Taylor only to show cause. The application with respect to Earnshaw was refosed. Mr. BAILEY moved for a quo warrant° calling upon the Mayor of Nottingham to show by what authority he holds that office. He was elected at Michaelmas, and it was alleged th:it he had not received the Sacrament in the ustaal Church. The omission made his election void. Mr. Justice BAILEY, who heard this motion, after the Judges had left the Court, asked the Learned Counsel whether he had applied to the Mayor to know whether he attended at any other church. Mr. BAILEY answered in the negative. Mr. Justice BAILEY observed, s that the inquiry ought to be made. There were several churches in Nottingham; and unless the fact of not receiv ing the Sacrament was established, the parties might be put to unnecessary expence. Mr. BAILEY undertook to make the inquiry. At two o'clock the Lord Mayor elect was pre sented, and the Recorder invited the Judges to dinner at Guildhall.

THE THEATCEL—The Tragedy of Tamerlane, which used to be annually revived at both the Winter Theatres at this period of the year, was represented last night at Covent Garden Theatre. The part of Bajazet, one of the Stock Tyrants of the Stage, was assigned to Mr. MACKEADY, who supported it with impressive spirit and ferocity. The rn;id and moral dignity of Tamerlane derived l&ahtAge hum the performance of Mr. C. KEMBLB. The scene in which Tangerlane is roused from his august serenity by the galling insinua tions of Bajazet, that the former had dishonour able views on Arpasia, was well supported on both sides, and was most deservedly applauded. Mrs. BONN, in Arpasia, displayed considerable merit, and Miss FOOTE gave a strong interest to the part of Salina. ABBOTT'S Moneses was judicious, spirited, and affecting. The Play is well written, but not adapted to the taste of the times. It was brought forward with great splendour. THB PRINCESS OF WALES, &C.—lt has already be en st a ted that a letter has been received from the PRINCESS by Colonel ST. LRGE/t, in which her Royal Highness names the month of Decem ber as the probable period of her visit to this country. It was, however, yesterday reported that another letter is in town, which has been received by a partner in an eminent banking house, in which the Princess states that she will not return to England for the present ;, and the Paris Papers received yesterday assert that she has left Lyons on her road to Italy.—The Duke of Kent, his Duchess, and the family, are now about to quit Kensington Palace for a time. A ship is now lying in the River Thames for the ex press purpose of conveying their baggage to the coast of Devonshire. Their Highnesses mean to make Sidmouth their winter quarters.—No steps are yet taken to prepare far the reception of the . Princess of Wales ; nor have any orders been re ceived ,at Kensington Palace. That proportion of the North wing not occupied by the household of the Duke of Kent has been dismantled for a long time ; even the water-pipes are cut away.— (Morning Post.) It is currently reported that the Earl of FIFE is to have the Blue Ribbon now vacant by the death of the Duke of RICHMOND. Vie Earl of COVENTRY has at this time a large bunting, shooting, and coursing party, at his seat of Croome, in Worcestershire, which it is expect ed will be joined on Monday next by the Duke of GLOUCESTER and the Duke of WELLINGTON.

He attended at the request of the Vestry, and had witnesses to prove the act of selling the works. Mr. Cardey, bookseller and news-vender, of No. 20, Silver -street, Golden-square, was the first person charged •in the information, founded on the Statute of the 29th of• King Charles the Second, chapter 7, which specifies, that if any person per forms or exercises certaia worldly labour, husi ness, or work of his ordinary calling on the Lord's-day, the same not being a woik of charity or necessity, according to the Statute, he dues subject himself to a penalty of five shillings, on the case being brought before a Magistrate. Mr. BAKER to defendant—)o you plead guilty or not guilty ? Mr. Cardey—Why, positively I can't plead at all, because 1 am not aware thael, have committed any offence. Magistrate—You have committed an offence by selling seditious publications on ihe Lord's-day. Mr. Cardey—l must plead Not Guilty, because I do not think 1 have offended, unless getting my living is an offence against the law.—He pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. I3owser, a Constable of St. James's parish, after being sworn,-said, that on the 24th of Octo ber, according to instructions that he received front the Vestry of the parish, be went to Mr. Cardey's shop to purchase Mr. Carlile's pamphlet called The Republican. Mr. Conley was gone out, and a boy in the shop served him with one, and he paid for it. The outside of the shop was placarded with different papers, and he saw seve ral persons go in to purchase., and they were served with papers, -being at the time during Di vine Service on the Sabbath-day. Magistrate—What have you to say, Mr. Card dey ? Mr. Cardey—Why I confess that I have bills outside my dobr, announcing different publica tions, on Sunday, and I have served several per sons the same as other newsvenders. The news papers are stamped to sell; and of course I dispose ed of them without any appiebension, and ac cording to law.. Magivrate—l know of no law that allows you to sell on Sundays ; besides, you have no business to sell them, or to have your place placarded out side your windows ; for that alone you are liable to be punished. Mr. Cardey—Then I suppose, your Worship, we are not allowed by law to sell a Newspaper on Sunday ? Magistrate Certainly not. Mr. Cardey—For what reason, your Worsb l ip Magistrate--Because•it is not a work of neces• sity or charity. Mr. Cardey—Why are we pitched upon ? Why not proceed against the fountain head ? 1 have even served the head Clerk of this Office with Pa pers on a Sunday. Magistrate—We know that ; notwithstanding you are a seller of sedition and blasphemy. I have frequently passed by your house myself for the last two years, and you have seen me no doubt stop and read the papers you have bad on your windows. Mr. Cardey—l have, Sir; if you say I have no right to sell Newspapers on Sundays, I beg you'll let me have the summons, and I'll stick it outside, and have mitten upon it—" No Papers to be sold on Sundays." Magistrate--That would come under the Act, having a paper outside your window on the Lord's day. . . Carder—l shall continue to sell thew on Sundays. Alagistrate—lf you do, you'll be punished. Cardey—l cannot see what oftence there is ti what I have done. He was convicted in the penalty of ss. and costs, %Nikkh amounted to S. which he very re luctantly paid, asserting, that be would continue the practice as well as others, as the Newspaper Offices were guilty of the same, and none of their papers of Sunday could be sold according to the present proceeding. Mr. William Swainley, of Pulteney• court, Gol den-square, was charged under the statute with a similar offence. In his defence he said, that he did not belong to the_ shop ; his son was a crip ple, and not able to work, and he set him up in the business of a newspaper-seller, .to procure an honest livelihood, which he always bad; but he found that the more honest a man got his living, he was the worse treated ; none but rogues were protected. Magistrate—That language, I suppose, you think will serve you ?—Defendant—l am under hail at present for my son, for selling The Repub lican. Magistrate—What ! for selling libels ?—De fendant— Your Worship' may thick it a libel, but for myself I can see no libel in its contents. The Magistrate said be could not convict, the father for the action of the son, but suggested to Mr. Collinson, if the practice liras continued, to proceed against them by a fresbjnformation, and intimated to" the parties that they would not be allowed to sell the papers on Siindays, or to have placards outside their windows. Mr. Shorter. of Wych-street. Mr. Harris, of Broad-court, Drury-lane, Mr. Watling, and se veral other venders of seditious publications, were yesterday served with ex-officio informations for misdemeanours. in publishing certain seditious libels on the 7th and 15th days of September last.—The newsmen who were held to bail- Fir selling certain numbers of The Republican of Car lile, and against whom bills of indictment were not tuund by the Grand Jury of Middlesex, have received notice that the Attorney-General intend* to move the Court of King's Bench for criminal informations against them for the sale of the nutn bets question. po - told itie" olifig lUt ed AO' th e alte4 ; b"L "of hei r a bi sio gli NW WO sfr i nt 9 dog ,yal 06- pl - ,yO l. oci tbc. be 01
