FOREIGN INTELLIOJNCE. FRENCH PAPERS. 'Prom the Gazette de Frazee, dated Saturday, :Warela 22. ) BUCHAREST, FEB. 22.—Though we have not received written news from Constantinople later than the Btb, be rause the couriers are detained by the swelling of the DA nube, and only a few individuals without baggage hart ventured to pass, we learn, however, from travellers, that the capital enjoys the most complete tranquillity ; and that it the rigorous orders against the Armenians are not yet evoked, the execution of them is relaxed, and most of the emigrations are voluntary. Nothing certain was known at Constantinople respecting the intentions of the Porte ; on the one hand, it was said that it would not content, upon any condition, to conceeeions, if the Greeks did nut make a complete sub fission, abandoning their fate to the mercy of the Sultan. Other persons thought that the Porte might very likely yield on certain conditions, and that it would require first of all a guarantee for the security of it:; nwn existence; and that then, without formally declaring itself.---without agreeing to sign any treaty granting inde pendence to Greece,—it would tolerate it in silence. These accounts, however, are hut the supposition of private per sons, which are not founded upon any positive authority, and from which no inference can he drawn respecting the state of things. In like manner we have nothing certain from the inte rior of Russia. It is said that a Polish division has joined the army in Bessarabia, and that the Grand Duke Constantine is expected there ; but these are only reports. —Auggtairgh Gazette.

LISBON, MARCH lb. The following is from the Correspondent of the rning Herald : Thursday was the appointed night when the Proclama tion of Miguel I. was to take place, but now all have given op the thoughts Of it. A Council of State was holden to day (Thursday), at which it is said that the Count de Villa Real almost went on his knees, and told Don Miguel that all the schemes would end in his destruction. The old Queen is furious against the persons who have counter acted her plans and declares she will not he satisfied until she has the heads of some of the leaders of the Constitution to roll after each other. The Cortes live been dissolved most summarily, for it is said ao have been the intention of some of the Deputies this day (Friday) to have made a motion in the Chamber to declare the nation in a state of danger; inasmuch, as Don Miguel declared that he took no oath, and he was not Regent wording to the . Constitution. I have been as.- cored also tnat it was the intention of some of the member. en move the thanks of the nation to the British troops for ;their speedy and effective • interference. To prevent such a measure from being proposed, a decree of Don Miguel, in the name of the King, was presented to the President, in which it is declared that, in the exercise of the rights vested in him by the Charter, he, the Infant Regent, has been pleased to dissolve the Chathher of Deputies. A no ti-ae to that effect was also sent to the Chamber of Peers, and both Houses are now closed. The situation of Portugal has become almost desperate, and the worst of the ease is, that most of its horrors are attaibuted to the acts of the English Authorities ; the Am lasaeador is in a passion and abusing the Portuguese for want of spirit. General Clinton is ill of a wound and tying ill on a sofa an invalid—the Admiral is looking on seaokiog, when Don Miguel and his partizans are destroying ane Charter piecemeal. Sir F. Lamb while in Portugal wal form a strong contrast with his polished predecessor, and England will base to regret that he is not so likely to beeouse acquainted with the secret machinery as was Lord Heytetheary. The Portuguese troops do not play the Constitutional Hymn, and all the Liberals seem down cast. Rumours are afloat of arrests having been attempted last night— 'alaursday. The houses of General Clinton and of the Asnbasaador, who is still a resident of Revves' hotel in :Buenos Ayres, as well as the quarters of the English troops, 'avert thronged with persons seeking protection. Every ope in the ,oreets (even British subjects) looks frightened. and men of strength and nerve are appalled when they see alae.ir wives and children in terror around them. I have been told that the houses of Counts Villafior, Taipa, Lu .'niarefr, and Ficalho, were surrounded and searched last ,night, ae well as that of the Marquis of Fronteira. The Coade de Taipa and General Stubbs are said to have gone off in the steam packet without passports ; the others are aeacribed as having sought an asylum in General Clinton's douse, or on board the English vessels in the river. Two regiments are described as determined to sell their isberties dearly, these are the 16th inflintry, the strongest and best disciplined regiment in the service, and the Bth regiment of rifle corps. Two nights ago, the bugles of a part of the latter regiment played the Constitutional hymn ander the very windows of the Palace, which roused the ire of the Prince, and he ordered the officer to be arres ted. To-das rumour circulates the report that those re giments are 'to be sent to Setubal, a notorious absolutist town, where they air to be disarmed and perhaps dis 'Pearled. It is confidently asserted that some of the best Generals and leaders of the Portuguese army stated to the British chat they would go into the field and head the soldiers against Don 3liguel's partisans ; and the British gu ide s here have dissuaded them from that course, and General Clinton's house affords an asylum to many now tilling to ff,ht. 'the insults of the Infant to General Clinton are de scribed as too glaring to be passed over, yet they have been so, and that too, tamely. On being asked to go to the review, the Infant is reported to have used expressions eq uivalent to—" You surd your troops may go b e ( 1- 4 1 ;" let nothing was produced but a strong note from the Am bassador. The only ships marked in the Exchauge list as having sailed up to yestet day, are the Melville and three transports for Gibraltar ; it is said the Ocean sailed also this morns. LT, having the 23t1 regiment on board. The Lancers are anaharked in the transports in the river. Tae 60th Regiment (English) pasted through the city this evening, on its route tiom Lumiar to Belem. The b an d play t :d the Constitutional Hymn, which contributed to raise the spirits of the Constitutionalists.

LAME and General CLINTON, dated Lisbon the IGth instant. Don MIGUEL had entirely thrown off the mask, and dissolved both the Chambers. Lisbon was in a great fer ment, and universal confusion and distrust pre vailed. The conduct of Sir F. L AMB was highly characteristic of the representative of the King of ENGLAND. He denounced the mischievous conduct which MIGUEL was pursuing, and pre dicted, that, if persevered in, it world end in destruction to himself, and be productive of the most direful catastrophe. MIGUEL is entirely in the hands of the infamous QUEEN,. who di. rests every thing. The Chambers were dis solved, in order to prevent their debating upon the state of the nation. All the Constitutional Chiefs were dismissed, and replaced by Apostoli cals. The QUEEN had even gone so far as to send to Spain for twenty-five thousand men, which FERDINAND will no doubt rend, if he can spare them from home. The presence of our troops in Lisbon, and the fleet in the Tagus, are the only obstacles to MIGUF.L'S being proclaimed KING. When Sir FREDF,RICK LAMB remonstrated with ArtotrEt. on the extravagance of his conduct and its per nicious tendency, he affected total ignorance of what was going on. Ilk mother has a printing press, at the Palace, from which she printed off a vast number of Proclamations of an in flammatory nature, which were ready for dis tributien the moment an opportunity offered. INIEGI:EL denied any knowledge of these pro ceedings, but when our Ambassador pulled one out of his pocket, and asked MIGUEL fhe could read that ? his confusion was unspeak able. Sir FREDERICK LAMB then informed uEL that he could no longer believe anything he said, and took his departure. He then invited all the Ambassadors to a conference, and ex plained his proceedings, of which they all ap proved, with the exception of the French and Spanish Ambassadors, who left the conference. This speaks volumes, so far as France is con cerped ; but we shall not at .present speculate upon what may, hut what must be the conse quence of such connivance. We insert a letter which we received from our Private Correspon dent, which will be read with great interest. Several Nobles and public characters have left Lisbon, to escape the vengeance or cruelty of MIGUEL. The following have come over in the packet : Marquis and Marchioness FRONTIERA, Conde and Condesse VILLA FLoR, Conde SAMPAYO, FERNAN DEZ THOMAS, and Senor SOUZA HOLSTEIN, Mr. WM. CUMMING, &e. (E'ReM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) LISBON, MARCH 15. I regret that 1 missed the opportunity of writing to you by the Duke of York steam packet, which was despatched from this last Wednesday evening, by Sir F. LAMB, to inform his Government of the deplorable condition into which the promising young man, whom he brought over under his protection, has thrown this poor country. For a short time after his arrival matters went on rather smoothly, and some hopes were entertained of his being sincere in the professions which he publicly and solemnly made to support the institutions as established by his Brother; but his real disposition soon began to spew itself, and through the over anxiety of his mother and himself, they became so manifest that our Ambassador took prompt measures to prevent his evil designs from being carried to the height which was intended, at least - for the present. The Commanding Officers of all the Portuguese regi ments had been replaced by those of the Corcunda party, and the Governors of all the districts replaced in a similar way. This having been effected, it was his intention to have set out for Villa Vicosa, under pretence of going on a shooting party, but it is sup posed with the intention of meeting the Marquis of CHAVES and his followers, all of whom have already permission to return, and tinder whose protection he was to have returned to Lisbon as Absolute KING I —indeed, ever since his landing, there have been a few here who have frequently called out " MIGUEL the Ist, and Absolute KING !" but at first they ap peared to be so insignificant that little or no notice had been taken of them—afterwards, matters were assuming a more alarming appearance, until now things are in the greatest confusion. In the midst of all this, but of course, before Allis became so bad, part of our army had embarked, and the remainder were all to have been on board this week, but the zeal and activity of Sir F. LAMB discovered the plots that were going forward in time to save the lives of many a poor fellow, whose only crime is the love of his country's welfare. The positive instructions, however, with Sir W. CLINTON had received, to send off the regiments destined for the Mediterra nean, induced him, in the event of their being wan ted in that quarter, not to detain them, and conse quently, the Wellesley, with the I lth Foot, and the Revenge with the 10th Foot, sailedfor Corfu. The Ocean, and some transports have also sailed with the 23d and 43d for Gibraltar, The 10th Hussars, and 12th Lancers, as likewise part of the artillery,- have proceeded to England, so that we have now here only the two battalions of Guards, the 4th, 60 th, and 63d Foot, and a small portion of artillery, which, with four line-of-battle ships and a frigate, viz.—tha Spartiate. Windsor Castle, Gloucester, Melville, and Pyramus, are sufficient ro protect the poor people who have cause to fear, until something is decided for them ; although, even at present, their case is much to be pitied. Yesterday the Chambers of Peers and Deputies were dissolved, and many of the nobility are at this moment on board our ships. Others seek protection at night in the barracks, occupied by the Guards, and our own merchants here are in the greatest alarm ; indeed so much so, that a deputation of them waited on Sir FREDERICK LA3113 to state, that they do not consider their property to be safe if our troops are withdrawn— where it will all end God knows. The old QueuN has a printing press at the Ajuda, where proclama tions have been printed, calling on all the faithful and good people to rally round the Throne, and to extirpate all heretics and freemasons. She also in vites her Brother of Spain to send 25,000 men to her assistance, to aid her and her Son in the sacred cause. Sir F. LAMB went to the Palace, and had an audience of the Prince, when he represented, in tile strongest manner, the evil of these proceed ing. The Prince, however, denied, in equally strong terms, that any thing of the kind existed; until Sir F. at length pulled one of the printed pa pers from his pocket, at the sight of which the Don was quite confused and covered with shame. " How can I have any confidence in any thing you say," added Sir F., " after this ?" His next step was to invite the different Ambassadors . to a conference, to whom he stated the steps he had taken, and who all approved of them, with the exception of the Spanish and French Ministers, who bowed and took their leave. I have since learnt that the Don has been out at night " incog." with the Police Guard, in search of the objects of his hatred, amongst whom is the Marquis of FRONTEIRA, and whom they have succeeded in cap turing about two o'clock this morning, and he is now in prison. Count VILLA FLOE has, however, escaped, as he is on board the packet which conveys this to England. CHAMBER OF PEERS.—.SITTING: or 14Tr1 31.4 m it. LISBON, MARCH 14. The Conde de Meßquitella read a letter from the Minister ibr the Affairs of the Kingdom, enclosing a Royal letter of the following tenor, which was read by the Vic President : " Honoured Duke de Cadoval, Consin,44Friend, , " I, the Infante Regent, in the name of ! ' k ing, sa lute you with much affection and eqeem. By a Decree, dated thi, day, I have thought fit, in the name of the King, to make use of the moderating power given by tit. 5, chap. 1, art. 74, see. 4, of the Constitutional Charter, and to dissolve the Chamber of Deputies, which 1 communicate to you that you may announce it to the Chamber of Peers, of which yon are President. " The INFANTE. REGENT. " Palace of Ajuda, March 13, 1823. " To the Duke de Cadaral, President of the Chamber of Peers." In consequence of this Royal letter, the Vice President declared that the Session was closed. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, MARCH 14. After some business had been gone through, the Vice- President announced the receipt of the decree dissolving the Chamber, and having read it, said,—" By virtue of tikis decree the Session is closed." WAR-OFFICE, MARers 12. His Highness the Infante Regent, in the name of the King, orders that in the Corps of the army, as well on their marches as on other occasion.% no hymn -hall be played excetpt the Portuguese Hymn. The Gazette de France of Saturday contains an article from Bucharest, something similar to that which we inserted in our Paper of Satur day. The Russians had not passed the Pruth at the end of February, nor was it believed at Bucharest that peace would be broken. The conduct of the PORTE has become more mode rate, and Constantinople was quiet. We must, however, wait for news from St. Petersburgh before we can form any decided opinion upon the question of peace or war. At present, our impression is, that Russia will go to war, unles s she be induced to act otherwise by England and France ; but we shrewdly suspect that France and Russia have a secret understanding at this moment with respect to Turkey, the result of which may develope itself before long. German Papers have been received to the 18th inst. The expectation of peace being preserved was entertained at Vienna on the 12th, and the Funds rose in consequence. This belief is founded on the circumstance that no new mea sures were adopted at St. Petersburgh when the dosing of the Bosphorus was known. This says little. It would be on the Banks of the Pruth that Russia would act : VIENNA, MARCH 1?.. (From a :Idercantile Letter.) . . In consequence of the latest accounts from St. Peters burgh, when the closing of the Bosphorus, the persecu tion of the Armenians, mad the hostile Hatti-Scheriff of the Sultan, were known, without having led to the adop tion of any new measures, we again indulge in the hopes of peace, and the funds are rising. VIENNA, MARCIE 12. Metliliques 90 ; Bank Shares 10291. TRI TE S ][ARCM 6. Private letters from Corfu of the 28th of February, say that Count Coilleminot was much surprised at not finding either of his colleagues there. The Lord High Commis sioner is said to have received despatches from London, which do not give reason to expect that the negociations at Corfu will be soon opened. There was no news of im portance from the Morea. Ibrahim was still at Modon, and the only result of the negociations with hisn was the sending of an agent to Mehemed Ali, as Ibrahim does not think himself authorized to leave the Morea, without farther orders. But as he is said to have expressed a wish to return to Egypt, it is believed that he will receive his father's permission to do so. STOCKHOLM, MARCH 4. It is said that the King will open the nest Diet, at Christiania, in person. Itoutir ST. BERNARD, MARCH 6. We have had a terrible day. At 10 o'clock this morning, all of us, both monks and domestics, had to go to meet 26 journeymen masons coming from Aoste to the Canton de Vaud. Eleven had their feet, hands, or ears frozen. One of them is in, such a miserable condition, that we fear the amputation of a hand will he necessary. The thermometer was at 14 degrees below Zero, with a very impetuous north wind. At six in the afternoon, just when these unfortunate persons required all our attention, some body knocked at our gate. It was an EnglMl gentleman from Aoste, who had been so imprudent as to pass the mountain without a guide. Ile was mote dead than alive, and both his feet were frozen. The greatest attention has been paid to him. From the French Papers received this morn ing, we learn that the report of the expedition to the Morea will not be of that extent as v is at first imagined ; according to letters from Toulon and Marseilles, there will only be embarked 9000 men, in which are included the artillery and two regiments of cavalry, the commend to he given to Marshal MARMONT, because, according to the Convention between the Allies, the Eng lish troops are to be under his command, the French squadron was under the command of Ad miral CODRINGTON. It apprars certain, that the Duke Of MONTEMART is appointed Ex traordinary Ambassador to Russia, and he will accompany NICHOLAS in his campaign to the East. By the Swallow packet, Captain II A LDOCK, arrived at Falmouth, Papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee House to tha 12th Feb. She sailed from Carthagena the 30th January, Jamaica the 12th, and Crooked Island the 21st February : The Courant of the Bth mentions the arrival of the Monkey schooner, Lieutenant Hosearon, from La Guayra and Santa Martha in five days. The Mail from Bogota had not arrived at the date of her sailing. There was nothing new in the interior. His v Majesty's ship Barhaua, Captain Sir Thowas Louis, sailed on the 9th in the morning for the Havannah, and Nassau, New Providence. Vice-Admiral Fleming embarked on board of her on Thursday last, to take a cruise for the benefit of his health, which had suffered severely from the prevailing epidemic. A dreadful fire had taken place at Twickenham Park Estate, which after doing an immense damage had again broken out on the 30th January. The fever had spread to the Wand. Nine-tenths of the inhabitants of Kingston are stated to have been af fected with this debilitating disorder, which was extending its baneful effects into the country. At a meeting of merchants and others interested, John Fowler, Esq., in the Chair, after some discussion the rate of freights was fixed as follows :—Sugar ss. per cwt. ; Coffee Gs. 6d. per ditto ; Rum 6d. per gallon ; Pimento 14. per lb. This is considered a considerable reduction, and, the Papers add, is likely to cause some of the finest vessels in the trade to give up continuing in it. SUN OFFICE, Three o'clock. We have just received the Gazette de France, by express, dated yesterday. It contains news one day later from the Emit, but does not con , vey any additional information. We have only room for a few extracts:— Admiral RIGNY has addressed a letter to the Legislative Body, at Egina, in answer to a depu tation which had been sent to him, hut we have neither room nor time for it. The French Funds on the 22d inst. were— Five per Cents. 102 f. 65c. ; Three per Cents. 69f. 25c. It is Paid in The Friend of the Charter, that a con siderable body of marines is to be raised for the Royal Navy, of which Nantes is to furnish 600. By a telegraphic despatch, dated the 6th of the month, the Maritime Commandant at Toulon announced the arri val in that port of the frigate La Reliant, and the brigs Le Cuirassier, l'Euryale, and Le Curieux. This divi sion came from Cadiz. The picked battalion, formed out of the 14th regiment of the line, in garrison at Lyons, has embarked on the Rhone for Marseilles. BuctlaursT, Mane!! I.—There are letters at Constan tinople, dated February 15, which state that a new attempt made on the part of the Ministers of Austria and Prussia, for the Porte to accept their intervention, has been rejected by the Reis Effendi, who expressed himself in very strong terms to the dragomans. In every other respect, all remains the same in the capital. Letters from Hamburg!), of the 14th instant, have been received. One of these letters states, that the price of Wheat is rising as the Fads fall. The Colonial Market had improved : Coffee was firmer, and Sugar had improved. The latest private letters from Jamaica men tion that the sugar canes had suffered much from the effect of drought. A Messenger has arrived from Vienna with despatches for Prince ESTERHAZY, which are supposed to be of importance. The Mexican Congress was opened on the 3d of January, by a speech from the PRESI DENT, which possesses km particular interest. The election for a Member to serve in Par liament for the county of Anglesea, is appointed to take place on Thursday, the 3d of April next. News have been received from Lima to the .20th November. Affairs seemed to be going on in a prosperous manner, and the Government was employed in improving the several depart ments of the Administration. Trade was assum ing rather improved appearance in Lima ; and Manchester manufactures of every description, as well as linen goods, were in demand. French articles, on the whole, did not experience so ready a sale. Letters from Falmouth mention that his Ma jesty's brig Redpole, from Jamaica and Mexico, is in the offing. The Bishop of .WlNctlEsrEn yesterday preached a charity sermon at Percy Chapel, in Charlotte-street, Bedford-square, and highly gratified a crowded audience by the unaffected piety and genuine humility which marked his discourse ; affording a striking contrast to the haughty and controversial spirit which is so fre quently to be found in the effusions of Prelates and Dignitaries of the Church. We are aware with what jealousy and rancour the elevation of Dr. SUMNER has been regarded by not a few of his brethren ; but the more wo hear of him, the more are we satisfied that by following in that instance, as report states, the dictates of his unaided judgment, his MAJESTY has done infinite service to the cause of religion at large, and, what some reckon still more im portant, to the interests of the Established Church of England. We wish we could say the same of some cle rical promotions which appeared in Gazdte. To Dr. Pli/LLPOTTS' app the last ointment we should, perhaps, be reconciled by his meri torious, though unintentional, e xposure of the infamous delusion respecting Mr. PITT'S opi nions on the Catholic Question ; but we really thought that the High Church Party themselves were afraid of trusting the *burning z eal of Dr. SPRY, in situations where it would be more conspicuous. It is so palpably their interest, that we take it for granted it is the earnest desire of Ministers to promote public tranquillity, by diminishing the sectarian spirit throughout the kingdom. But let any reflecting man consider whether this is to be best effected by the promotion of such ' w don't say that 1,1. would burn I);steuters. men as Dr. SUM\NER, or by that of a Dr. SrnY. There must be something very taking amongst the bull: of those who have any concern for their souls, in what is usually stigmatized as evangelical, otherwise we should have but few Dissenters. Now, if a Bishop is as evangeli cal, that is, as humble, as much in earnest, and as laborious in his Master's work, as on illiterate hedge-preacher, no one can really believe that the latter, with all his defects, will be preferred by any considerable class of persons. But let the Lord Bishop assume a manner as starched as his lawn-sleeves—let him preach regularly at Dissenters, praising God almost in the words of the Pharisee, that he is not as other men, and seldom addressing himself to those affecting and interesting truths which, when stated v,ith some appearance of earnestness and sincerity, never fail to make, at least, a temporary impression on the majority of a congregation,—let the haughty churchman act in this manner, and, with all the scholastic learning which his chaplain may have crammed into his cold unmeaning sermon, he will excite no feeling but disgust, and will bear no comparison, as a Minister of CHRIST, with the humble and pious individual whose origin and vocation may, after all, be no more mean than that of the fishermen who were , first selected by our SAVIOUR to propagate tne glad tidings of salvation. But let us not be misunderstood as imagining that Dr. SUNINER is a solitary instance on the Bench of Bishops, of a truly pious and humble Christian. We are well aware that this is not the case, and that there are various individuals amongst them who would have been shining or•• naments to the Church -in its best and purest days,--who unite the utmost zeal of Dissenters to the tempered and chastened spirit of enlightened and erudite Churchmen. And who will venture to charge those eminent individuals with hosti lity to the Church, or indifference to its interests ; or what sincere friend to the Establishment will prefer for its champion that compound of into lerance and blasphemy, that advocate of slavery at home and abroad, that pander to the worst feelings of mankind—our worthy cotemporary, the John Bull newspaper ?

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY). CITY, MEL rite n' The appearance in the English Funds was that of a rise this morning, which was aided by the advance of the French Funds, but this lasted a very short time, the gene ral tenor of the intelligence per tke Lisbon packet being o they at w extremely =satisfactory, and every thing tendi ng t o c h ew a new order of Government, alike destructive to' all rational libertythewaund freely public offe redwien t ; s ls becameopened shortly 83 , after price h te al Ca 83k, since which, in consequence of continued Sales, the market has been drooping, and they are now 82i 3. India bonds maintain their price, being 88 90 ; but E.xchequer Bills are a shade worse, being 56 7 pm.

His LonDsHic gave judgment in this . case, whisk he heard as Master of the Rolla. The question arose ripen the will of a lady named Martha Hardham, in which Els bequeathed real estates to a person of the name of William Salmon for life, and after his decease to such of his C hildren 29 should be then living, and in default of there being chil dren, the will went on to direct "the trustee to convey the property to the next of kin of my late father and mother." It was contended that these terms were equivocal, and two interpretations were put upon them: une side contended that they meant next of kin of both the father and mother of the test atria separately ; the other, that they meant the next of kin of the father, and also of the mother, jointly ; and that both classes were entitled to take under the will. By the Master's report it appeared, that at the time of making the will, and the death of the testatrix, th ere were no individuals answering the description of the next of kin both of the father and mother. The opinion of the Coart, however, was, that the testatrix meant the next of kin both of the father and the mother, and that as there were no such individuals, it followed the heir at law was enti tled. As he had become bankrupt, the property went to the assignees. DEW V. CLARE. his LORDSHIP had looked most attentively into the Act of Parliament 'with respect to this case, and he thought it would not he safe to contend the construction of the Act to trustees by implication and operation of law, for the purpose of having money transferred, a clause which would have given the Court such power had been thrown out through the intervention of Lord Redesdale. Hie Lordship had talked to that Noble Lord, and found he was very much afraid at that time of the effects of that clause, but that dread had been since dissipated. • The judgment, therefore, of the Court was, that the motion which Mr. Sudden made a few days ago, for the tranfer of several large sums of money, was dismissed. Mr. SUDDEN hoped his Lordship would give them leave to apply to Parliament for an Act to obtain the trander. His LOAD 31111" thought such a course would not be pro. per in a case like this. - Mr. SUCDEN would not press the subject, as the Coast seemed so clear upon that point. JACKSON V. ROWE. Hig LORDSHIP thought the plea in this ease ought to ba overruled. The Court went upon appeals. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. BANKRUPT PETITION. EXI.ARTE ILLtiscwoerit IN THE MATTES OF MULL/VANT. This was the petition of the bankrupt to stay the certifi cate of his partner. He prayed that the debt of the peti tioning creditor might be expunged, and the debt of some other creditor might be substituted in its stead, far the purpose of supporting the Commission of Bankruptcy, and finally, that the certificate L: Bullivant might be stayed. It stated, that of the 1201. said to be due to the petitioning creditor, '75/. were actually due to the bankrupt himself-- , and that the commission was concerted between the pe titioning creditor and Deevy, the assignee, for the purpose of clearing Deevy from certain liabilities which he had incurred by reason of his having become bail for Butß runt. The assignee was charged with having indemnified Messrs. Fisher and Norcot, the solicitors, under the com mission, the petitioning creditor being insolvent. The mrtifi cate was said to have been prepared before the third nieeting, and the necessary signatures to the certificate being procured whilst Bullivant was signing his balance, so great was the despatch used to complete what had originated in fraud. It was charged that the balance sheet contained nothing relative to the interest which Bullivant took under his marri age se ttl ement , an d t h at i t al i o omitted , to notice in any way the sum of 6,000/, which Bulli rant had represented himself as entitled to, and Which be . promised to bring into the late partnership, over and above the capital inveeted in it by him. The petition also stated, that when Messrs 'Clarence and Franks, of Billiter.street, bt by of D 6, ,e 000 7 1. t ag he ain au st i t gn he ee b , an aua kru al pt sr 'e to opportunity, however, was not afforded ; e n d Wi l k e la b. e o a sp p t p pa o t el r e' t d u t n lt i eo ty y - pw w r oe o rve t e d ld b ei e offered them for d o in g so . That mitted that Deevy's object in deceiving Messrs. Clarence and Franks was to prevent their being able to vote against the bankrupt's obtaining his certificate. - ' Mr. WAKEFIKLO opposed the petiiion,' and itihrnitted, ceie S i v n ho w le h h ic i h sto a r y eo. ot bank ben r k u ru p p t t o cy ai t ial efedid to n lies ot o;li e r c at ! h e n r a t it i n fi ian c t a a t tu e l of his partner. The Learned Gititleten referred his Honour to the statute, from which it'siould appestrthat a creditor only could present a petition of this nature. Be sides, there was no allegation whatever id this petition that Illingworth had any claim against the estate of hie partner. Mr. ROLFE said, that the certificate, if granted: would bar all future claims against Bullivant—and this, of course, must materially affect the interests of the ether partner. The Vtes-CHANcEt.Loa dismissed the petition. He did not think that a cs-bankrupt could snake such an ap plication. Mr. WAxErini.n asked that it might be dismissed with costs. The Court could not grant costs against a bankrupt, but the Lord Chancellor had compelled the solicitor who attested the petition to pay the costs. Mr. ROLFE said that must have been a ease in which the petition contained some scandalous or improper Matter.

After an uninteresting case, which had been in part heard on Saturday, was disposed of, Mr. Twiss resumed his argument against the applies. tion for an inj unct i on to restra i n t h e sale of the stock pur. chased by Mears. Moon, Boys, and Greaves, from the assignees of the bankrupts. The Learned Gentleman re pelled the charge made against his clients, that they had in any respect deceived the assignees as to the value of the property, and cited an instance in which they, so far front coining errors, had actually exerted them selves to correct the mistakes of others. It appeared that in a list of their stock kept by the bankrupts them selves a great many copies of the Encyclopedia Britannia were described as incomplete. Messrs. Boys and Greave• upon examining these copies, found that by breaking up some copies, plates could be procured which would make a certain number of the other copies complete. These gen tlemen, instead of pocketing this information with the view of turning it to their own advantage, actually cow i re ' un familyn se wo-naslene6 of dangerously anicated it to the assignees.
