MORNING SUN THE BANQUET AT GUILDHALL. Two circumstances relieVed this entertainment from the usual routine of city festivals; the first was the birth of an illustrious Prince, which has given joy to every loyal heart throughout the kingdom ; and the second, the first appearance of the representatives tef the new Ministry before a large audience of the citizens of Lon don, comprising men of many shades oipolitical opinion. The first—that is, the - fond hope of the nation in the birth of a Prince—was the theme of the evening. It was referred to in almost every speech, and every allusion to it was hailed with the most hearty plaudits. The re ception of the Ministers was by no means favourable. Oa the Right of the Lord Mayor we observed the French Ambassador,- the Lord Chancellor, Sir Robert Peel, Lord Wharncliffe, Earl Haddington, Earl Ripon, Lord Stanley, Lord Fitzgerald, Sir James Graham, Lord G.

The next toast was, "the Army and Navy." Lo':d Huse returned thanks for the army.

Count Sr. At:Lees:li addressed the company with much earnestness in French, and expressed his extreme regret that he had to address that company in a lan gintee which was not known to the whole. lie felt a most anxious desire to express the delight he felt at being present at a Lord Mayor's feast on such a day a•; the present, It had dawned suspiciously, and he trusted that the brightness of the dawn would lie fully borne out by the continued splendour of the day .—(Lord cheers ) Ile begged to assure the company that not only did France look to England with a friendly and brotherly feeling. hut the Royal Family of France entertained a " family" end, most intimate affection for the Royal Family of England.—(Cheers.) The Loan Meyon gave " her Majesty's Ministers," which was responded to with cheers. Sir RPEEL returned thanks. He said, my Lord Mayor, Ladies, and Geethenen, whatever obligation her Ma jesty's. Ministers may owe to you for the compliment you have just paid them, I should ill respond to the feelinge which you have expressed in so enthusiastic a manner if I did not on their parts express, in the first in staller, their conlial satisfaetion at being allowed to join with their fellow-subjects in this ancient hall in expressing their feelings of exultation at that auspicious event which will make this day memorable in the an • nals of the empire—(Loud cheers)—and which, by completing the domestic happiness of her Majesty, and presenting an heir apparent to the British throne, will till with joy the universal people of this great country. — (Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, I rejoice that you have had an opportunity of manifesting such feelings of loyalty in the presence of distinguishecrforeigners—the representa tives of powerful and friendly States. I rejoice that you have had another opportunity of showing that whatever political differences may divide us, and what ever may be the conflicts of party inseparable from the working of free and popular Governments, we are all united as one man in sentiments of attach ment to the monarchy, and in a feeling of devotion to the person of our Sovereign.—(Loud cheers.) The feel ings which they have witnessed this day is an example of the feelings which pervade the whole inha bitants of this country. The people of this country will see with delight the prospect of increased security for their liberty and happiness, and they will look forward with hope and joy to the succession in the fulness of time to the throne of his ancestors of the Prince who had been born this day, and who they confidently true:. shall —formed under the care and instructed by the example of his illustrious parents—at some future, and, as we pray, most distant day, prove himself worthy of the high destiny to which he is called—worthy of filling the throne of this United Kingdom, of protecting the Con stitution, and advancing the liberties and happihess of a free and generous people.—(Long-continued cheering.) Gentlemen, I must now, on behalf of her Ma jesty's Government, return you our warmest thanks for the manner in which you have received the propo sal from the Chair. They are deeply sensible of the weighty importance which attaches to the favourable opinion and confidence of the city of London. They know what powerful elements arc these to any Govern meat, and they look forward as the highest rewards for the cares and toils of official life that they, shall prove themselves worthy of your confidence and esteem. That that is the feeling of every individual to whom her Ma jesty has confided the high trust of office I am eatisfled; and, allow me to say, that if I were insensible of such considerations, I should be peculiarly unworthy the post I hold.. I.cannot enter the city of London without a feeling of pride at my connection with that mercantile industry, of which this city is the chief seat. Nor can I take my place in this hell without recalling my obligations to the city of London, and without remem bering the proofs of confidence which I have received within these walls, and which now encourage me to address you, not as a stranger, but as a fellow-citizen proud of . his connection , with your city.—(Great cheering.) In these feelings my colleagues cor dially participate, and it is not the language of flat tery, it is not the language of mere compliment, when I assure you that we feel in our collective capacity a deep anxiety to testify on every occasion our respect for the authorities of your . City, and our earnest desire to ep-operate with theta in promoting - the public tranquil lay, and advancing the comfort and welfare of the inha bitants,-(Cheers.) Allow me, before I sit down, to propose. the toast of the health of the Chief Magistrate, who has tiiie day entered on h is high office..

Extract of a letter dated " Palma, 28th October :" " Our town, generally so tranquil, was on Sunday, the !nth,. suddenly disturbed by a frightful crime. General Aymerie, formerly a Minister of Ferdinand 111. was assassinated in a dastardly manner by a party of revolutionary eadtados belonging to the corps of officers in the garrison. The following are the details of this sanguinary scene, which I have collected and can vouch for their autheuticity:— " At about eight o'clock in the evening a body of about thirty men, wrapped up in large cloaks, and wearing hats similar to those worn at Valencia, sud denly sailed out from several streets leading to the hotel where General Aymeric bail alighted in company with his son. After posting sentinels at the extremities of these streets, in order to blockade the passage, the band proceeded to the hotel of General Aynieric. and de manded to speak with him. Scarcely had the General appear,•d at the threshold of his.room when the assassins rushed upon him, and dragging him by the feet through the mud, they fell upon him with their poniards, and left him weltering in his blood, singing and shouting as they with drew. A patrol, drawn thither by the disturbance, ap proached them, but was withheld from interfering, pro bably because they recogni-ed the rioters to be officers. Finding„ however, the unfortunate General stretched lifeless on the ground they hastened to raise him and con vey him to his hotel, where he expired yesterday morn ing amidst the most dreadful agonies, and without hav ing, even for a moment, recovered the use of his facul ties. While all this was taking place the General's son was with the military commander of the town, whom he had sought out to entreat, though in vain, that he would afford succour and protection to his father ; for an offi cious friend had on the Sunday afternoon informed the General's sun that the project was on foot of assassi nating his father on the same evening. All the entrea ties of the son to obtain only a guard of protection for his father were useless ; the commander of the town af fected to disbelieve that an: 7 . flange: threatened the life of General Aymeric, and even on hearing of his assassina tion he refused to order out the troops until the munici pal authorities had declared that unless that measure were taken they feared an insurrection on the part of the in habitants. . This inexplicable conduct on the part of the military commander has spread alarm among the inhabitants of our town, the more as it is perfectly ascertained that the assassins were no other titan the members of the Radical Club, belonging to the Secret Society (Cubdo) of Barcelona. This Club still subsists, notwithstanding the orders of the Government of - Mitdrid, who directed that it should be dissoked, while, on the contrary, it makes a display of such daring recklessness that the peaceful citizens are alarmed, and already begin to desert the town, and conceal themselves in the country. The anarchy which exists among - ns is at its highest pitch ; we have, it is true, the shadow of a Government, but it is so weak that scarcely bas it strength to support itself, much less to support its subjects anti protect them from the fur- of these Radicals." PARISIAN Ul[ - HT CHAT. • (From the Cbtotidienne.) Discord is in the camp. The rue .de Courcelles is arrayed af,rainst the chateau of St. C!oud, und for the last week Queen Christina hls dosed her doors nt.la'ntt M. Gu;7.lt and Count de Salvandy, the French Ambassador to the Regent Espartero ; even the Duke d'Aurnale, the to-he-son-in-liw of Christina, according to the choice of the Debuts, has no longer access to his mother-in-law in prospect: ve. since he refused to draw his sword and go to the rescue of his intended, who re mains a prisoner amongst her rebel subjects. There cer tainly is a sere at loose between Christina and the Orleans family, each reproaching the other with the unsuccessful termination of the O'Donnell echauffourec. At St: Cloud the ex• Regent is accused of Laving compromised the French Government, by a badly-planned and not feasible enterprise ; Christina, on the other hand, reproaches her noble relations with the non-fulfilment of their promises. All these recriminations of disappointed ambition would only serve to be laughed at were not the name and in terests of France mixed up in the affair, and we might ssy of Queen Christina and of M. Guizot, as of Le clerc and of his friend Cores— " Mais aussitot quo l'ouvrage a pant, Plus n'ont voulu l'avoir fait l'un ni l'autre." The Duke d'Aumale is not, however, the only one who is mis a pied in consequence of the defeat of O'Donnell. M. de Salvandy himself feels like a fish out of water. One hour be receives an order to start for his post, the next ho receives a counter-order. He goes from the Foreign-office to Saint Cloud, and from Saint .Cloud to the Foreign.office, and the only con solation he derives in this equivocal position is from seeing the daily announcement in the Court para. graph, that " Count de Salvandy, Ambassador from France to the Court of Madrid, was received by the • r Kig " -It appears highly probable that he will not • start at all. This calls to our mind the misadventure which happened under the regency of Anne of Austria to the poet Benserade, who had been appointed to an embassy by Cardinal Mazarin, but who never went to his post, which called forth the following piece of pleasantry from Scarron, in one of his epistles : " L'an que le Sieur de Benserade N'alla pas a son ambassade. The political dinners of M. Demidoff are beginning to create a sensation. M. Thiers, it is well known, pre sides at them ; M. Guizot is uneasy at them ; and Count de Pollen laughs at them. At the last dinner, the Quintus Curtius of Napoleon proved that the Rus sian campaign was badly conceived and badly directed, and that the Emperor committed blunders which he (M. Thiers) would not have been guilty of. M. Demi doff, who looks upon himself as the nephew of the Em peror, considered himself called upon to defend the plans of campaign of his uncle. M. Demidoff and M. Thiers are to go together to explore the fields of Smo lensko and Moscow. Mme. Dosne and Mme. Demidoff are to be of the party, for which permission is to be so licited from the Emperor Nicholas. The Londoners are, it appears, to be gratified by having French plays this winter. Mr. Mitchell, a gentleman well versed in dramatic affairs, has been here beating up for recruits. Carligny, Volnys,.and Mdlle. Avenel, set off in 'a few days. Dejazet will go over in March, and Souffle. and Mdlle. Plessy in April end May. A sensation is created in the salons of Paris by the project of reform about carrying out by Count d'Orsay, who is going to abdicate the throne of fashion, and retire to Brussels, where a grande dame of his acquaintance has just purchased an hotel. A rival in dandyism con saes himself with the idea that when D'Orsay has left " he shall sport the finest umbrella in town." DISTURBANCE AT LEWES.—It has been thel practice at Lewes, for many years, to celebrate the sth of' November, by making a bonfire opposite the Town hall at Lewes, and letting off fireworks in - the public streets' • Numerous accidents having taken place, and in some instances houses having been accidentally set fire to, several of the respectable inhabitants applied to the police to stop the nuisance. Handbills were issued, cautioning parties against the practice, and a number of special constables sworn in to assist the East Sussex constabulary. Notwithstanding these measures had been taken, on Friday evening last an immense mob as sembled opposite the Town-hall, most of them armed with bludgeons. In a - short time a quantity of faggots, straw, and tar-barrels, were brought into the middle of the street, and set fire to. The police, headed by Fagan, the Superintendent, endeavoured to stop the proceed ings, when the mob made a most desperate attack on them, knocking most of them down with their bludgeons. Fagan received such severe wounds on the Lack part of his head, that he was obliged to be led away. Several of the constables, in addition to blows, got severely burnt. The mob obtained complete possession of the street, and continued their lawless career until nearly twotl o'clock the following morning. During the time ie thoroughfare was completely stopped, and the beforei‘i ath.e.,lltat,,,,is . coaches(l and other vehicles had to take a circuitous route to pass the lawn.

'"~~.: ~. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 10. The LORD CHANCELLOR took appeals to-day. PRICE V. NORTH. A gentleman behind the Bar applied to the Court this morning in this case, under the following circumstances: —The case, which was in fact a rehearing from the Equity Exchequer, had by some mistake been answered by Lord Abinger as a common petition ; such being the fact, he had now to ask the leave of the Court that the case might stand on his Lordship's paper of rehearings. There was evidently some mistake about it, the manner of answering the petition by Lord Abinger being the following :—" Let all parties Attend me in the matter of this petition on the first petition day in Term." Whereas by the Act lately pasSecl the jurisdiction of the Equity Exchequer had been done away with.. The LORD CH.i.xcELLott--That was struck out, and the following appears to have been inserted—" Let this cause be set down to be heard upon further directions— hereof give notice forthwith." Now that was not ae cording to the practice of the Court of Exchequer, and it was necessary, therefore, to make a special application to the Lord Chancellor on the subject. Looking to the order of Lord Abinger, his Lordship thought that the original order to which Lord Abinger'i signature had been annexed, had been struck out and the present one substituted by the Solicitor in the cause. Mr. GIRDLESTONE, who was one of the Counsel in the cause, thought it probable that the alteration had been made by one of the cificers of the Court. 1.1;e LORD CHANCELLOR thought the subject should be inquired into, because if the irregularity he had pointed out, had been committed, a new order must be made. It seemed to have been assumed that Lord Abinger had made an order for a rehearing, when, in fact, he had not done so. The case was then ordered to stand over, in order that inquiry might be made as to what had taken place. rounded on all sides by parts of the parish. The defen dant set up two defences ; first, that no tithe had been paid for more than 63 years, 60 ye a rs being - the period within which Lord Tenterden's Act 'restricted the re vival of a dormant claim ; and, secondly, that even if the case did not come within that Act he was not lialsie, because Benefield Lawn was extra-parochial. The other defendant Sir Arthur de Capel Brooke did not suggest that the lands belonging to him were extra parochial. His lands were of four descriptions ; part of them were granted to him by letters patent of Elizabeth ; another part by letters patent of Charles the First ; a third part had been allotted to him in. 1832, and the last were lands allotted to other persons . in 1832, and since purchased by him. Now, with reFard - te the Act of Lord Tenterden, it appeared to him that the enacting part was so worded, that if it had not been 'fOi the preamble the words were not large enough to entitle an one who could prove that tithes had not been paid for sixty-three years, to claim exemption under that Act. His Honour then cited the preamble. The object of the Act appeared to be to provide for cases in which too long a time was required; and he thought, therefore, tleat its application must be confined to such cases. 5.1 e defendant had not carried back his proof for sixty-three years, and there fore had not brought his case within the exemption. The last section of the Act said, that in the case of a party claiming exemption, he should not have the benefit of any such presumption, and therefore he was bound to say that he had not proved this to be a case of exemption. and must pay the tithe. The de fendant said that the plaintiff had, by his own bill, brought the case within the operation of the Act, and then the prescription was set forth as a claim to exemp tion. The lands had been exempted from payment dur ing a certain period when they were held by the owner. In 1832 the plaintiff stated that the lands had been trans ' ferred from the Crown to certain ether persons, and insisted upon the payment of tithes. His statement was that they had been Crown lands, but that having passed from the Crown, they were now liable. The defendant alleged that from time immemorial the tithe had not been paid. If the case were to rest upnn the bill they must take the whole statement, and, there• fore, the fact that these tithe lands, formerly held by the Crown, had since passed into the hailds of a subject. He thought, therefore, that, as far as the defence rested upon Lord Tenterden's Act, both the defendants had failed. With respect to Sir A. de C. Brooke, he thought the plaintiff had made out a good cause, and he must take an account against the defendant for the payment of tithes. With respect to the other defendant, a defence was set up that the land was extra-parochial. lie had proved that there had been no payment of rates or tithes for many years. Witnesses had been called on to prove that about ter. years ago the parish officers caused a rate for the relief of the poor to be made on this property ; that there was a distress to recover it ; that that was re sisted, and that after two or three days the distress was returned ; and, in fact, the rate was never paid. It was also distinctly proved that for thirty-four years no rates had been paid in respect of this property. If the case rested upon that evidence, he could not make his decree for the defender t. The land, it appeared, had been part of a forest, yielding little or no profit. and as the claim, whenever made, was sure to be resisted, of course the rate would not be levied while so little could be gained by litigation. His Honour then commented at sonic length on the evidence, and said, that if the case had rested upon the defCndant's bill, he would have made a decree at once; but, as the plaintiff had attempted to prove his case by refutation, and had, in that respect, failed, he must direct an issue. The evidence had brought his mind to a balance. The question of boun dary or no boundary, was a fit one for a Jery. He would leave the case open for i few days, but at pre sent his opinion was, that the case should be sent to a Jary to try whether Benefield Lawn was occupied by the defendant as part and parcel of the parish of Cot tingham or not. His Honour then directed that the cause should stand at the head of the paper on Mon day next. SALKELD V. PHILLIPS. ' The hearing of this ease was brought to a termina tion. His Honour postponed his judgment. The Court rose shortly after three. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 10. THE QUEEN V. THE LEICESTER AND NORTHAMPTON UNION CANAL COMPANY. In this case a rule had been obtained against the de fendants, calling - upon them to show cause why a manda mus should not issue directed to them, and commanding them to make a uniform rate of toll or tonnage upon all coals to be conveyed along the line of their canal, or to reduce the rate of tonnage charged upon coals con veyed from Northampton to Market Harborough along a portion of the line. • Mr. Sergeant MANNING now appeared to support the return that had been made to the mandamus. The return set out, in the first place, the various Acts under which the Company had been incorpo rated. The first Act, passed in the 33d year of the reign of George the Third, by which certain parties were empowered to make a canal from Leicester to Northampton; by the 45th of the same reign the Com pany were empowered to alter the line of their canM ; and then there was a third Act passed in the 50th Geo. 111., incorporating another Company with power to make a canal from the Grand Junction Canal to the Leicester and Northampton Union Canal, th....reby uniting both. Now the canal originally proposed from Northampton to Leicester was only carried eighteen miles, and from thence there was a collateral cut to Market Ha borough, making the distance 24 miles, and for that dis tance the Company were authorized to charge ss. per ton, and did charge 4s. 4d. A different rate of tolls was charged along the remainder of the line, . and the people of Market Harborough, by whom the mandamus had been applied for, complained that they were charged a higher rate of toll for the distance than was charged for coals going a longer distance on the line. Now he sub mitted, that there was no pretence for raying that the defendants could make a uniform rate of toll along the entire line, inasmuch as the remainder of the line had been formed by another Company, with different powers, and authorised to levy different rates of toll. An attempt was made, by his learned friend Mr. Hill, to make the rule absolute in the first instance, on the ground that the defen dants had violated the provisions of the Act, and he (Mr. Manning) had not an opportunity, on the occasion, of addressing their Lordships, as he was at the time before Mr. Justice Patteson endeavouring, but unsuccessfully, to effect the liberation of a prisoner. Lord DENMAN—Probably, if you .had been here, the prisoner would have been set at liberty.—(Laughter.) Mr. Sergeant MANNING submitted, that under the pro visions of the 3d Act of Parliament, by which the Grand Union Canal was formed, the - Legislature expressly sanctioned the principle of charging a rate of ton nage, modified by circumstances, and by the destination of the coals or other goods to be carried thereon. The Learned Counsel, after, referring to the various authorities on the point, submitted that the return was good, and. the rule for the mandamus ought to be dis charged. • Mr. PEACOCK, in support of the mandamus, contended that the return was false, inasmuch as the defendants set out that. they were authorised to take and levy. certain rates and tolls. The prosecutors complained that the rates were unequal, and the defendants iti the first place alleged that they were authorised to levy these varying rates, and secondly that they had never been applied to to equalise the rate of tonnage. The question before,the Court was whether the return of the defendants was a sufficient answer, and he submitted that it was not. After hearing the arguments of Counsel, which lasted for several hours, The COURT was of opinion that the return was good, and the judgment of the Court must be fcr the defendants. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Noy. 10. BOUCHER AND ANOTHER V. DOUGLASS. This was an action tried before Lord Abinger in Lon don, when a verdict was found for the plaintiffs for 3601. Mr. JamEs now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had. It was an action by the assignees of a bankrupt named Maitland, to recover the value of several bills, alleged to have been given to the defendant by way of fraudulent preference, while the bankrupt contemplated bankruptcy. Maitland was a leather factor who had borrowed the above of the de fendant for which he had given his bill, which would fall due on the 29th of October. On the 22d, the bankrupt went to the defendant at Winchester, and gave him a variety of acceptances, in substitution of the other. It was proved at the trial that, previous to the 22d Oct., Maitland was in insolvent circumstances ; that he had overdrawn his account 'at the bank, and that one of his creditors had given him notice to give hail fur his debt within twenty-one days, otherwise he would become bankrupt. The tint was dated the 10th November; he Mr. James) contended that there was not evidence enough to show that, on the 22J October, the bankrupt contemplated bankruptcy. The CounT considered the Jury had come to a right conclusion—the notice for bail wus a strong fact in the case.—Rule refused. FAULRENER V. 31`CABE. Mr. S. WORTLEY moved to set aside the verdict, which was for the defendant. The action was brought to re cover the value of certain certificates of shares from the 'public officer of a bank. It was tried at the late Liver pool Assizes, before Justice Wightman. It appeared that the plaintiff, in March, 183 S, employed his brother, who was a share-broker, to purchase for him certain shares in the London and Birminghamliailway Company, the pay ment for which was to be made out of a sum of 9001. in the hands of John Faulkener, the property of the plaintiff. John Faulkener made a bargain with another broker, named Hampson, for twenty quarter-shares in the above railway, for 711/., to be paid fur on the 3d of July. A contract note was made out and signed by the owner of the shares, and it was clearly and distinctly in the name of the plaintiff: On the 3d of July Hampson 4- -died to Juhn Faulkener for payment but he, in fraud of his hi-other, had dealt with the 9001, and could not pay. He asked Hampton for and obtained the certificates, which he took to a joint-stock bank in which he was a shareholder, and although it was then after bank hours, he immediately obtained an advance of 7001. upon the certificates. After that John Faulkener became bankrupt; he was considerably indebted to the Bank, which held many shares as security, the whole of which were sold, and am ongst t h em those belonging tq the plaintiff. To prove th a t f act , he (Mr. W.) called both Hampson and the broke r w h o sold them on the part of the Bank ; and, in ord er t o id e ntify them, he asked the witnesses what were the number of the shares. The question was objected to. It was said he was inquiring into the contents o f a written docu ment, and his Lordship held the objection to - be good. On that part of the case the Learned Gentleman contended that he did not want to know any thing of the contents of the certificate —all he wanted was to treat them in the same manner as any other chattel which had a particular mark upon it for assis;ing its - identification ; and-in support of his view of - the case' he cited the cases of Butcher v. Jarratt, 3d Bosanquet and Pullar ; Jolly v. Taylor,lst C a mpbell, 140 ; and White head and Scott: He further complained that his Lord. THE SUN, LONDON. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11 lB4l. ship had left a question to the Jury upon which there was no evidence. He left it to the Jury to say whether the shares were purchased for the plaintiff, or whether they NI ere not purchased for the account of John Faulkener him self; and the contract note an afterthought. Now there was no evidence of that at all, but Mr. Cresswoll, with that tact which distinguished him, mooted the point in his reply, and they all knew with what peculiar effect his Learned Friend addressed a Liverpool Jury.On these grounds he trusted their Lordships would think the case worthy of further consideration. Lord ABINGER considered the Learned Judge had acted right. The number alone - would not - prove that the paper was a certificate—it was part of a written in strument, and must be proved. Baron PARKE—If -the objection be taken, .it is one that must prevail, however hard it may be. He thought the Learned Judge was right in rejecting the evidence, and also in leaving the question of, for whom the shares were purchased, to the Jury. The other Barons agreed, and the rule was refused. SOMES V. LAWSON. This case came before the Court upon a demurrer to the plaintiff's plea. Mr. PLATT applied to amend, of course, upon pay ment of costs. Mr. Bovm hoped their Lordships would not grant the application as a matter of course. The defendants had already applied at Chambers, and got leave to amend, and then they pleaded this plea, which was not in ac cordance with the rule: The action was for a series of libels upon the defendant and his ship, and many Terms had already been lost by the demurrer, THE COURT—Let the plea be amended in two days, and let the case stand in the paper for Monday next. If, after the amendment, the plaintiff is not satisfied with it. he may then come and argue his demurrer. The trial will then not be delayed beyond the sittings after Term. BAIL COURT, iNov.lo.l . EX PARTE Mr. ERLt applied for a rule calling upon an attorney of the Court to show cause why he should not pay to• Messrs. Bailey and Shaw the sum of 151/. 155., with in terest thereon, and also the costs of this application. It appeared that the attorney had been applied to by Bailey and Shaw to sue a person named Pulman on a promis sory note for the above sum—that Pulman in April last had paid the amount in question to- the. attorney, who represented to tho plaintiffs - that Pulman had not paid it—that in July the attorney acknowledged he had received the money from Pulman, and ap propriated .it to his own purposes, and that he was unable to pay the same to Bailey and Shaw. An ac tion had been brought against him. and the venue laid in Bristol. The Attorney had pleaded his privilege, and brought it back to this Court, and thus had gained the be nefit of the long vacation. That action had been discon tinned, and the costs tendered to the defendant. Under these circumstances the application had been made.— Rule granted. WOODCOCK V. RENNICK. The arguments in this part-heard appeal were re sumed, and occupied the Court the whole morning. 'The only question in the case was, as to the validity of a power of appointment. The arguments, which were not concluded when the Court row, will be resumed on Friday, his Lordship taking to-morrow (this day) appeal motions and causes. • ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 10. HOLNES V. BLENKIN. This was a suit instituted by the mortgagor for the foreloure of a mortgage. The defendant Blenkin, was indebted to the Hull Banking Company, and deposited with them, by way of mortgage, the title-deeds of the property in question ; and subsequently also, the title deeds of another property. On the 28th of March, 18'38, Blenkin contracted with a gentleman named Graham, one of the defendants, to sell to him the pro perty to which the deeds in the first deposit related, and undertook to convey the same to him free from incumbrances on or before the 6th of April then next ensuing. This agrcen ent was never carried into effect, although Graham had advanced a portion of the purchase money, and had entered on possession of the property, the company having refused to deliver up the tale-deeds, although they supplied an abstract of them, unless the whole of their debt due to them from Blenkin on the two mortgages was paid out of the pur chase money. Blenkin had subsequently become bank rupt, and this suit was instituted by the Company against his assignees, and Mr. Graham, for the foreclosures of the mortgage. Mr. PEMBERTON having stated the plaintiff's case, yr. KINDERHLEY was arguing that of the defendant Graham, when, by consent, the. cause was postponed to allow the parties time for consultation, with a view to an arrangement. JAMES V. JAMES. This was a bill which had been filed as a cross-bill_ to one filed by two children of the Rev. William James, deceased, against the plaintiff, the Rev. W. R. James, their brother, and Mr. Bateman, the trustee of their father's will. It appeared that the original bill, being defective for want of parties, had stood over for amend ment, and that the amended bill so differed from the former that a new defence was necessary. That answer was referred to the Master for impertinence, but no re port was made, nor any further proceedings taken in the case. Under these circumstances the plaintiff in the present bill had, unfortunately, permitted the time al lowed in which to amend his bill to elapse, and special application having been made to the Master of the Rolls for permission to amend it, his Lordship granted it, but this permission was overruled by the Lord Chancellor ; n d under these circumstances the bill came on for hearing. Mr. PEMBERTON having stated plaintiffs' ease a short conversation ensued between the parties, which termi nated in an arrangement to let the case stand over until the other bill was heard,] and in the meantime to allow a receiver to be appointed. BARBER V. SWANN. This case came before the Court on exceptions to the Master's report, and the arguments not being concluded when the Court rose, stand over for to-morrow. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 10. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) His HoNoues paper this morning contained pleas, demurrers, exceptions, and further directions but in consequence of the parties not being prepared, the Court was enabled to make but very little progress, and rose before one o'clock. The case of Brown v. Brown, which was part heard, was ordered to stand over, in conse quence of the absence of Counsel. (Before Vice -Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.) SEDDON V. PRINCE. This was a bill of exceptions taken by the plaintiff to the insufficiency of the defendant's answer to a bill ori ginally filed by the plaintiff. Mr. Cooper, Q.C., with whom was Mr. Ileathfield, supported the exceptions; Mr. Simpltinsm, Q.C., arid Mr. Lowens appeared for the defendants. The arguments were of considerable length, but the case was of no general interest. llis HONOUR allowed the exceptions. ATTORNEY-GENERAL v. BRUNDRETH. This was an information at the suit of the Attorney- General, at the relation of John Joseph Haughton and others, against Thomas Brundreth the defendant. The information praycd that it might be declared that a legacy of 2001., bequeathed for the benefit of the poor of the parish of Onskirk, was a good and charitable be quest, and that it might be referred to the Master of the Court to appoint proper trustees to the charitable fund. The information was filed under these circumstances — Mrs. Catherine Brundreth, by a will dated the Ist March, 1827, among other things bequeathed a legacy of 2001. to the poor of the parish of Onskirk, to be settled by her executors, and that the interest of the sum might be paid them yearly. Of the executors appointed by the testatrix, the defendant was the only one who • proved the will, acted, and possessed him- Self of the personal estate of the testatrix upon her death in April, 1827. It was admitted that the personal estate was sufficient for the payment of the legacy.. The question in the cause was whether a cer tain application which the defendant had made of the trust fund was a good payment of the legacy appointed by the will of the testatrix, and a proper application of it. It appeared that in the parish of Onskirk there was a dispensary affording medical relief and medicines to - the " poor of the parish and its vicinity. This institution was suprorted by voluntary contribu tions, and subsequently to the death of the testatrix the defendant paid into its treasury the sum of 2001, which had been bequeathed as mentioned. This sum, with other money subscribed by other individuals, was laid out in purchasing a piece of land, and building a house thereon for the benefit of the poor, and fur the other purposes for which a public dispensary •is used. The trust-deed by which the property they purchased was conveyed for the benefit of the charity, was between the Earl of Derby and Lord Stanley on the one hand, and the Rev. Gilbert Fore and other gentlemen of the pa rish and its neighbourhood. on the other. The trustees of the charity were seised of this property in fee simple. This was the manner in which the legacy was applied by the defendant. The supreme direction of the dispensary was at the disposal of subscribers to it of not less than ss. each, the decision of . the majority in all general meetings was binding, unless annulled at some subsequent meeting. The dispensary was open to any poor person recommended by a subscriber, so that any person, no matter whether residing in the parish or not, might receive relief at the Institution if so re commended. Mr. FOLLETT, who appeared for the Attorney-Gene ral, contended that the dispensary did not constitute such a charity as was eontempleted by the testatrix. The supreme body of the - subscribers might do what they liked with the property; and Counsel submitted that the application of the legacy was not a proper one. His Ilomitin inquired if, at a general meeting of the subscribers to the dispensary, a resolution could not be made, securing to the parishioners a benefit equivalent to the legacy ? Mr. SINPRINSON, Q.C., who (with Mr. Rogers) ap• peered for the defendant, observed, in reply, that he was not aware of any objection existing to such a course being adopted. His HONOUR said, what he proposed then to the con sideration of Counsel was, whether or not it was better that the cause should stand over, with a view of seeing whether, effectually and unalterably, a regulation with regard to the trust fund : o , f rti t , h cha e ltsi d se i r s i p iv; e a, dispensary might not be made, which would have the effect of securing a benefit equivalent to the interest of the legacy to the poor of the parish of Onskirk. His Honour conceived such a thing feasible, without much expense. If the matter were referred to the Master in the ordinary way, the whole amount of the legacy, and even more would, in all pro bability, be swallowed up in the expenses ; thus it was desirable to see that the property should not be lost to the charity. Counsel on both sides having concurred in the pro priety of adopting his Honour's suggestion, the cause was, by consent, directed to stand over to this day fort night. The Court rose at three o'clock. (Before Vice-Chancellor WrGnAm.) On this cause bein n g li c t et E ll s ec r l ' on WA his llp iloNoun stated, that in consequence of a communication which he had had fwuittihiretl:leotltn(lleaCr Chancellor, he had determined for the fit the op shnrt cause inion ; Court ' strictly is obs HONOUR eri it; point of fact, a submission to .e d referred the or v d e dead, and whether they were out of inquire as to the number N t v h h e e t s a d n i the Court.

MEADOWS. • The hearing of this canse terminated this morning, and his HONOUR gave judgment to the following effect: _ . —The plaintiff was Rector of Cottingham, in Northamp tonshire, and as such was entitled to all tithes within that parish. The-defendant, Jr.l Meadows, was charged in the bill with occupying a district of land comprising about 370 or 380 acres, called Benefield Lawn, locally situated within the pariah, inasmuch as it was sttr- COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 10. Their Lordships this day took the demurrer paper, and one case, in which the question was only the oft decided one as to the non-jurisdiction of County Courts in causes where an amount of more than 40s. depends, occupied the whole day. The Court decided, of course, against the jurisdiction. INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, Nov. 10. IN THE MATTER OF JOHN RANGELEY. The insolvent in this case applied to be liberated on bail. Mr. Montague, of Grove-street, Camberwell, anti Mr. Curtis, of Church-street, offered themselves as sureties. In a rigid cross-examination by the Learned COM MISSIONER, previous to entering on the solvency of the bail, the insolvent stated that in May, 1810, he was granted a patent for a certain description of wheels to be used on railways, called safety rotation wheels, by which clanger would be much diminished. A company was formed under the name of the Safety Rotation Com pany, of several influential individuals, for the par purpose of carrying his invention into practical utility, amongst whom was the present Lord Mayor, and to which Mr. Cornwall Barron Wilson was solicitor. In endeavouring to perfect his invention he had incurred considerable expense, and was obliged to deal largely in accommodation bills. His debts were considerable, and tne only t...vailable assets for the creditors was his patent, the right in which he had sold to the Company for the sum of 61,500/., which was to be paid as soon as the in vention was found to be practicable. To two branches of the Society, called the Irish and English Companies, he had also sold a portion of his rights as patentee for about 3001, Mr. Commissioner Law said it was to be regretted that if there were so many influential persons forming the Company, they did not step forward to assist him in perfecting his invention, without obliging him to rob the public, for by no other name than robbery could he designate the conduct of persons who recklessly dealt with accommodation bills. However, as the insolvent was a very old man, and he (the Learned Commissioner) was satisfied of the solvency of the gentlemen offering themselves as bail, he should order his release. The insolvent was then liberated on bail. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO W- STREET. John Richard I'accard, Joseph Faccard, and John Kennot, were again placed at the bar, before Mr. Jardine, yesterdp', having been remanded since Saturday, charged on suspicion with having administered delete rious drugs to Michael Aungier, thereby causing his death. Previous to the entrance of the prisoners into Court an arrangement had been come to by the solicitors on both sides, that the prisoners should be remanded until Fridaynext, inconsequence of the absence of Mr. Hall, who had heard the evidence already given before the Court in the case ; and inasmuch as the prosecutors were not prepared at the moment to bring forward their wit nesses. _ --„. Mr. JARDINE, addressing the prisoners, said he was sorry to find, from the doubtful nature of the Coroner's verdict, that he could not then dismiss - them. He would, therefore, remand them till Friday next, when Mr.- Hall would give his final decision in the matter. WORSHIP-STREET. _ John Georgelincle,;naser shoemaker, and Thomas Wilson, aged 20, an apprentice to a brushniaker, were charged before Mr. Broughton, with having wrenched off the knockers from 'the doors of several houses in streets adjoining the Hackney-road. Police-constable, N 109, stated that he was on duty in Hackney-road, between twelve and one o'clock on that morning, when he heard a violent knocking at a door in Kent-street, and on approaching the spot, he saw the prisoners, with nearly twenty other well-dressed young men, proceeding in a disorderly manner down the street. He followed them into Weymouth-terrace, where the prisoner Wilson left his companions, and took hold of the knocker of one of the doors with both his hands ; one of his companions called out "give it a good pull," and the prisoner immediately wrenched off the knocker, and handed it to the prisoner Hinde, who threw it away. The prisoners then took to their heels, but Witness and another officer pursued them and took them into cus to Police-constable, N 153, stated that he took charge of the prisoner Hinde, who, on their way to the station house, offered to give him two sovereigns if he would let him go. Another policeman produced two knockers which he picked up near the spot some time after the occurrence, and stated that a third knocker, which had not been found, was wrenched off a door in Margaret-street. Two or three inhabitants of the houses were present, who complained of their rest having been disturbed in consequence of the uproarious proceedings of the pri soners and their Menus. - Sergeant Collins hit rmed the Magistrate that within the last ten days, no less than 18 knockers had been pulled off different doors in the same neighbourhood, and the policemen on-the respective beats had been taken before the Commissioners and fined ,fer their remissness of duty, in suffering the damage to take ptaS e • • id that In answer to the charge the prisoner Wilson he had spent the evening with his friends at a party, on the breaking up of which they first heard . the, joyful intelligence of the birth of the Prince. Royal... On, receiving the news they resolved unanimously to. repair to a public-house and take a parting glass in celebra- , tion of the happy event, but in the exuberance. of their. loyalty they overstepped the bounds of sobriety, and he, had no distinct recollection of what occurred afterwards. Mr. BROUGEITON said that if the prisoners had merely indulged in a little noisy and harmless hilarity he should have remitted the usual fine in consideration of the occa sion that gave rise to it, but their foolish and mischievous conduct in wrenching off the knockers it was impossible for him to excuse. He, should fine the prisoners 20s. each for disturbing the inhabitants, besides which they must pay ss. fur the damage done to the doors, or be committed for one month to the House of Correction. The prisoners paid the money and were liberated. UNION-HALL. On Monday Mary Jones, a woman of the town, who has been in custody a great many times at this Court, was brought before Mr. Traill, charged on suspicion with being concerned in the death of a man whose body was found in the river a few days ago. Anderson, the beadle of Lambeth, stated that on Thursday last the body of a man was picked up in the Thames near the Cornwall-road, which was afterwards recognised to be that of a man named Compton, who was a discharged soldier. The body, from its decom posed state, must have been for some considerable time in the water, but notwithstanding this circumstance it was satisfactorily proved to be that of the man alluded to. whose daughter described that her father had re ceived between Si. and 61. o n F r id a y, the 15th ult., the day from which he was missing, and that when he was found drowned there was not a halfpenny in any of his pockets. It was strongly suspected that he had met with foul play on the night of the day he re ceived the above sum of money, as he was seen at a late hour in the company, of two persons of very bad character, and he was evidently under the influence of liquor at the time. The woman Jones was the last person seen in the company of the deceased, and that was at ten minutes after 12 o'clock on the night of the 15th ult. The place where they were observed together was near the water side at totherhithe, and a man not since to be found was with them. _ _ Mr. TRAM. inquired how it was ascertained Jones was with the deceased on the night he was suspected to have been drowned ? Anderson, in reply, said that the deceased went to the Wheatsheaf puhlic-house, adjacent to Seven Steps-alley, where he had previously lodged, and asked the landlord fcr some liquor. The landlord, however, perceiving that he had already had enough, refused to serve him, upon which the deceased sent the prisoner into the house for half a pint of gin, and gave her the money to purchase -it ; that it was then after 12 o'clock at night, and when she left, the house the deceased, the ; prisoner, and a man were seen to go away together. - T his was - the last time the unfortunate man was seen. The prisoner said that she could not help the deceased being drowned ; that she was in his company on the night in question, when he was intoxicated, and that when he left her she did not know what became of him, and was not aware that he was drowned the same night until she was informed by the beadle. TnAm, said, that at the present stage of the in quiry he did not wish to call on the prisoner to say any thing that was likely to criminate herself ; that as yet -there was no evidence to implicate her in the death of the man, for, in fact, it had not been ascertained whe ther or not any violence had been exercised towards him. Tbs fact, however, of no money being found in his pockets, when it was known that he had received a con siderable sum on that day, certainly threw a degree of suspicion on• the parties last seen in his company, parti cularly when it was known that they were persons of bad character. The prisoner, who cried very much during the time she was at the bar, was then remanded. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. SWAFFHAM COURSING MEETING.—TuEsnAy..

The Courrier Francais has an article under the above title, in which, after stating, but upon what authority does not appear, that " the Bank of England is pre paring to apply to the Bank of France for fresh suc cour," says • " Two years ago, when the Bank of England made. its first application to us, some suspicious persons ad vised that a refusal should be given. We were not of the same opinion. France was the ally of England, and nothing at that time indicated the unworthy conduct which the British Government subsequently pursued. The fall of the Bank of England might have been a ca tastrophe fur Europe, and although neither our capital nor our credit was engaged, we thought that France- wa bound to be generous, and she was so in saving th credit of our neighbours. What gratitude have-we re ceived ? It is time to say. English pride, that mad and ridiculously ungrateful pride, was hurt at the idea of owing anything to us. For a long time eight or tea London jour nals periodically reproached the Bank of England with the humiliation which it inflicted on English commerce by receiving money from the Bank of France. Then arrived the events of Syria, in presence of which that commerce, so proud of its pacific virtues, did ;not find a word to say against the Machiavel au petit pied, which was compro mising the peace of the world Sy. transferring the alli ance of England with Franco- to Russia. At length we became in want of money in: Or turn, and 31. Humann talked of borrowing ; at that 'moment Whigs and Tories cried opt in concert in the journals, at the Bourse and in . :21e offices of the Bank, 1 : ` Button up your pockets, your purse-strings, take care of your money, draw ti . ..- - the French have . any of it." We will reply an:ay ; we will be selfish in ourin d 4 it o ie not s l a % have told their capitalists not turn. .The English will advisse our capitalists will not be going be to lend us any money • not to lend theirs, and this yond the limits of legitimate repril als : Besides, the state of credit in France does not perms: us to be gene rous a second time. We have to provide it:.r the inte rest of the loan of 150 - millions—considerable capital is wanting for the execution of the railways which &re contemplated, whether it be for Companies or to the State. This is not the moment to send our specie abroad in exchange for paper, the value of which becomes more and more 'doubtful, every day. The situation of Eng land is known, and it may be stated in two words. The labouring .classes are without employment, and bread is dear. The stock of corn on hand is exhausted — two millions of quarters of foreign corn have been im ported—and there is none in store. It is calculated that from two to three millions of quarters more will be necessary to meet the deficiency occasioned by a bad harvest. This corn must be had chiefly from Poland and the Crimea, where it must be paid for in: specie; consequently the Bank of England, which is the grand depot of specie, will have so much the .less. In order to judge of the extent of the danger, it isiareortant to state the precise situation of Bank of England. Since the month of September, the circu lating medium of the Bank in paper money has increased 38 millions of francs, whilst the metallic reserve which ought in the same proportion to have increased 13 mil lions, The paper circula tionand fur all the Banks of the United Kingdom 900 if h - a t s he d ß im an il k ils of England 12827,0i0s 437 millions (of' francs), 0 mil lions, and to meet the demands for reimbursement the Bank ofEnglan d, the. base upon which of •thecnt ire edifice of public credit reposes, had on the . l3thlast month onl a reserve of 103 millions. In such a state of things a bank is not very distant from a suspension of payment. It will he said , perhaps, that a loan of 50 millions of francs Bank Of Enga wou ld save the• lnd. If this u ere the fact, notw ithstanding the too well-founded complaints of nce, there might be ground for hesitation as to a refusal, But we should, by 'lending money to that establishment, merely prolong it; dying pangs. Its constitution is not robust enough to resist the financial crisis which periodi cally result from the commercial legislation of the coun try. So bon, a s the English Government shall n o t h ave 'reformed itscborn-laws, the credit of the bank must go on declining. The English attempted, in a similar situ ation, to keep up the 'American banks when they were shaken by the extent of their speculations. It is known that the attempt failed, and involved the Bank.Of .Eng•• land further in the financial shipwreck of the United States. Let this example, which is of so recent date, servo us as a lesson. We should no more be able to save the Bank of England than the English were able to save. the Bank of the United States. We shall act prudently, therefore, to allow the storm to pass over our heads, ' whilst we take shelter from its effects." IRELAND.
