INNER. _ _ tatrix, before her death, had solicited Mr. Evans to watch over him, knowing him to be of weak mind. Dr. HARDING, on the other side, contended that Mr. Tyler was in full possession of his faculties, and fully qualified to act as an executor under his deceased mo ther's will. He questioned the power of the Court to ex clude an executor, and referred to Williams's new work, page 86, in support of this view. The Learned Advocate argued the question in a strain of humour and irony which excited the quiet risibility of his brother advo cates, they appearing to understand his view, and con cluded by contending that there was nothing before the Court that would ♦itiate the appointment of Mr. Tyler. Dr. ADDAMS, in rising to reply, said, I cannot suffer myself to be browbeaten, and by you, Sir. Dr. DEAN (rising)—Do you address yourself to me, Dr. Addams? Dr. ADDAMS —I do, Sir. Dr. DEAN—Then Sir, I tell you, I would not take the trouble to browbeat you. Dr. ADDAMS—I will not be insulted by him, or those who back him. Dr. ADDAMS felt the Court would not grant probate to a dangerous lunatic, which was proved to be the case by the affidavits, and that he was now under the care of a person named Bowen, and his wife. The Learned JUDGE felt he could not refuse the appli cation. It was open to the pandas to prove the tacts of his being in an unsound state of mind, by applying for a hatx as corpus, if he was kept under restraint by parties stimulating him to insist upon his right to act as an executor. Probate must be granted, unless it can be proved he is in such a state of mind as not to be capable of acting as an executor. Mr. James Bury, sub-inspector of factories, attended to support the complaint, and stated that on the preced ing day he received private information that one of the defendant's workmen, named Robert Dyer, while en gaged in removing a piece of cotton from one of the engines, on the 13th ult., got his hand entangled in the machinery, which drew in the lower portion of his arm, and instantly severed it over the wrist joint. The defen • dant had omitted to report the circumstance to the dis trict surgeon, and having also failed to communicate it to the witness on making his last official visit to the pre mises, he considered it necessary to adopt the present mode of enforcing the salutary provisions of the Act under which the proceedings were instituted. The defendant's son, who appeared on behalf of his father, admitted that the facts had been correctly repre sented by the sub inspector, but stated in extenuation that the accident had arisen through the most reckless want of caution on the part of his workmen, who had acted in defiance of a written caution against any inter ference with the works while the machinery was in mo tion, and that on being apprised of the terrible nature of the accident, it was deemed most advisable to convey the injured man forthwith to the hospital rather than to await the tardy arrival of the district surgeon who re sided nearly three miles distant from the premises. Mr. HAIIMILL said that he felt it his duty to convict the defendant, who had clearly acted in contravention to the terms of the statute, but as he had evidently been influenced by a humane motive in the course he had pursued, he should impose upon him the mitigated penalty of 40s. and costs. Mr. Chambers and Mr. G. Denman were Counsel for the plaintiff; and Sergeant Shee and Mr. Miller for the defendant. The plaintiff was a shorthand writer, and brought his action for 931., the amount of his account for taking short-hand notes in some bankruptcy proceedings. The charge was 11. Is. a day for taking the notes, and Bd. a folio of 72 words for the transcript of the notes. The defendant, who was an attorney, had paid 151. on ac count, and 311. 6s. into Court. Mr. Joseph Gurney, Mr. Snell, Mr. Fitzgerald, and. Mr. Cherer proved the rate of charge was what had been long established, and such as all respectable shorthand writers received. For the defendant it was urged that this custom was quite un known except among shorthand writers themselves, but that the jury should consider the reasonableness of the charge. In the cress-examination of one of the plain tiff's witnesses, it was shown that a case having been referred to by the counsel in the case, the whole of that case was copied in the manuscript from the book. This the Learned Sergeant said was very improper. Lord DENDIAN said he recollected having said that Sergeant Lens was the beat speaker in Westminster Hall, because he spoke a great many folios in an hour. Upon one occasion Mr. Tierney attended a very magni ficent party, given by Mr. Perry, of the Morning Chro nicle, and it was said it was better to report speeches than to make them. Mr. Sergeant SIiEZ observed that counsel were glad to make speeches. Evidence was given showing that the plaintiff had charged 388 folios too many. Lord DENMAN, ill summing up, observed that if the jury thought the defendant had been made acquainted with the charges before the order was given, then that would amount to a contract; but if there was not a con tract, then the question of custom arose. No body of men could, among themselves, establish a custom; but where demand and payment d long existed, that would make a custom, and that would prove the reasonableness of the charge. Of course the 388 folios could not be re covered for, and he did not approve of the mode of copy ing only long cases, which in some instances might cost the party more than the book itself. The jury gave a verdict for 281.85. 4d. - Mrs. Emma Yarnold, the well-known actress and lessee of the Pavilion Theatre, presented herself before the magistrate to solicit advice and assistance under the following peculiar circumstances:— From the statement of the applicant and thatof a pro fessional gentleman, who accompanied her to the Court, it appeared that the lady had for some time past been subjected to an intolerable species of annoyance at the hands of a gentleman who professed himself to be pals sionately devoted to her, and was not only in the habit of pestering her incessantly with letters of an amatory tendency, but of frequently obtruding himself upon her for the purpose of pr ess i ng i n person hi s unwe l come im portunities. On a recent occasion, he contrived to gain admittance at a late hour of the night into the house of her father, where she was at present residing, and find ing that he was denied access to her, he had the audacity to invade the privacy of her chamber, before his expul sion could be effected. A few days afterwards her tormentor waylaid her at the private entrance to the theatre, and grasping her by the arm, declared with an air of startling wildness, that she should never have a moment's rest till she lent a favourable ear to his suit. Every attempt to convince him of the hope lessness of such a course of proceeding, had been wholly unavailing, and as each fresh rebuff appeared only to inspire him with renewed ardour and perseverance, she trusted the magistrate had the power to interpose his authority, and afford her protection against further per secution. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. THIRD COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner BuLLocK.) James Burrows and James Perkins were indicted for conspiring to defraud a gentleman named Thompson, by selling him an unsound horse. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Parry for the defence. By the evidence for the prosecution it appeared that the prosecutor having seen an advertisement for the sale of the horse in question, went to Dawson's livery stables, King-street, Westminster, where he saw the horse, and was referred by the prisoner Perkins, who was at the stables, to the prisoner Burrows, who gave such a de sirable account of the horse, that he was induced to Purchase it for 35 guineas, Burrows at the same time giving him a warranty that the animal was perfectly sound, and agreeing to take him back at the end of a week if Mr. Thompson did not approve of him, and re turn the money less one guinea. The horse turned out to be a roarer, and consequently Mr. Thompson sent him back, but had been unable to obtain the repayment of the money. Inspector Lund said he had known Burrows for nine years, during which time he had lived in a very re spectable house. He had known him as a " horse coupor." EXCHEQUER CHAMBER, Feb. 3. (Before Mr. Baron PARKE, Mr. Baron ALDERSON, Mr. Justice COLTMAN, Mr. Justice MauLE, Mr. Baron Boum, Mr. Baron PLATT, and Mr. Justice WILLIAM.) Mr. PARRY, for the prisoners, contended that there was nothing in the transaction between the parties to justify a criminal prosecution; the prosecutor's remedy was by a civil action o❑ the warranty. Mr. Commissioner BuLLocic said the simple question for the jury was, did the defendants intend to sell Mr. Thompson a bad and unsound horse at the price of a good one. Several epistles, couched in an impassioned strain of romantic sentiment, were handed up to the Bench, but after glancing over their contents, the magistrate ob served that although they all bore ample evidence of a distempered imagination, the writer bad carefully ab stained from committing himself in such a manner as would bring him within the scope of the law. It did not appear either that in his personal communications with the lady he had used any threats to induce her to apprehend danger from his violence, and, under such circumstances, no case whatever had been made out to justify the interference of a magistrate. The applicant thanked the magistrate for his atten tion, and left the court with her friends, apparently much chagrined at the fruitless result of her appeal. The jury found the prisoners Guilty. Burrows was sentenced to eighteen months, and Per. kins to six months' hard labour. Two young men, named Bryer and Smith, were in dicted for having stolen 20 zinc checks, the value of which was ♦ariously stated, the property of Mr. C. J. James, the lessee of the Queen's Theatre. It appeared that the prisoners were employed at the Queen's Theatre, Smith as the money-taker, and Bryer as the check taker, at the pit entrance. Mr. James, suspecting something wrong, caused a policeman to station him self behind a canvass pardon, where he could through a hole observe all that took place in the pas sage leading to the pit-door. At half-past ten o'clock the same night the prisoner Smith, left his box and went up to Bryer, who asked how many would do. Smith answered, " twenty," and Bryer then took a key out of his pocket, opened the cheek-bok, and gave twenty checks to Smith. The officer then discovered himself and took them both into custody. On Bryer were found keys which unlocked other check-boxes, but he had no right whatever to have them about him. The case for the prosecution was, that the intention of the prisoners was to rob Mr. James of the amount of entrance money represented by the checks abstracted from the box. Mr. Bui.Loct said, that in case the money had been kept by Smith that would have been an embezzlement. The taking of the checks was but the first step towards the completion of an embezzlement, and was not itself an act of larceny. Mr. PARRY asked if the Court would grant him a case upon the points to take into the Criminal Appeal Court? WHITE CONDUIT-HOUSE. On Tuesday night a farewell dinner was given to Mr. R. Rouse, on the occasion of his leaving this establish went. In the progress of improvement, and with the growth of population in this vast metropolis, it appears that this famous resort of holiday and pleasure-seeking cockneys is doomed to follow in the wake of Ranelagh gardens and Bagnigge-wells, whereunto, in the olden times, our ancestors were wont to repair, and " take their pleasure of an afternoon." The grounds have fallen into the hands of " an enterprising builder," and the tea-gardens, gravelled walks, snug boxes, trees, flowers, and statues, are to be superseded by " trim built" rows of houses. Under these circumstances it was resolved to give Mr. R. Rouse, the proprietor, a parting-dinner, and a testimonial of the esteem in which he was held in the neighbourhood. The testimonial consisted of a very handsome silver tea and coffee ger-. vice complete, with a large and elegant salver, in the centre of which was the following inscription:— Presented to Mr. R. ROUSE by his Neighbours and Friends, Residing at Islington, On his retirement from White Conduit-House, as a slight Testimonial of the esteem in which he was held during his Proprietorship. The dinner was given in the large room of the estab lishment, which was very tastefully decorated for the occasion. Upwards of one hundred gentlemen sat down to a board at which every delicacy of the season was provided, and the wines were both choice and abundant. Mr. Thomas Walters presided; and among the gentle men present we noticed Mr. Charles Ireland, Chairman of the Licensed Victuallers' Protection Society, and Past Governor of the Incorporated Society; Mr. James Raven, Past Chairman of the Asylum; Mr. George Bennett, Past Chairman of the Protection Society; Mr. Clifford and Mr. John Titchiner, Past Trustees of the Asylum; Mr. T. H. Bromley, member of the Committee of the Incorporated Society; Mr. Mathews, Past Trustee of the same. Mr. BULLOCK deelinsd to do so. The Court at its rising adjourned till Monday. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. William James Lodge, Chapel street, Milton.street, was placed at the bar before Alderman Gibbs on the charge of obtaining from a female the sum of 11/. under a promise of marriage. Mary Davies, a young woman in the service of Mr. Walmaley, King-street, Cheapside, worsted and fringe manufacturer, stated that some time back the prisoner accosted her in the street, and afterwards used to wait and meet her. The courtship was continued, and at various times she gave sums of money to the amount of 11/. On one occasion see gave him as much as 81., on the representation that it was necessary to place it in his solicitor's hand, as he had a small property coming to him at Woodstock, Oxfordshire, to the amount of 5001., and that he intended settling the odd 1001. on her at their marriage. She gave him 10s. also on Wednes day last, and in consequence of his repeated promises that he would marry as soon as she left her situation; she gave warning and was to leave on Tuesday next. Alderman GIBES—Were the baps put up? Prosecutrix.—They were not, as he said the ceremony was to be performed at Bow Church, and he intended, that it should take place by licence. Alderman GIBBS asked if the prisoner was known. Police-constable 469 said, that perhaps he could throw a little light on the subject. The fact was, that on Monday, early in the morning, he observed the prisoner loitering about, and afterwards enter Mr. Walmsley's house, where he remained for about fifteen min-ates. On coming out he took him into custody, suspecting some thing was wrong, and conveyed him to the station-house, but on the representation of Davies that she was abut to be married to him, and that he intended behaving honourably towards her, Mr. Walmsley declined press ing any charge against m. However, since then it had been discovered that the prisoner was a married man with a family. Alderman GIBBB asked how that was found out. Among the distinguished members of the trade there were Mr. Bathe, of the London Tavern; Mr. Ellis, of Cremone House; Mr. Hinton, of Highbury Barn Tavern; Mr. M'Diarmid, of the Belvidere, &c. The friends of Mr. Dennis, the builder, who has taken the ground, also mustered strong at the cross table, including Messrs. Shallis, King, Leonard, J. Wagstaff, G. Wagstaff, Hooker, Naylor, &e. After the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN gave the usual loyal and patriotic toasts, which were re sponded to with great enthusiasm. The CHAIRMAN then said, the toast he had the honour to propose gave him great satisfaction and pleasure, and he was sure they would drink it with equal satisfac tion and pleasure. It was the health of a very worthy and industrious man, the host of that house. —(Cheers.) He had known that gentleman for many years, and the arduous situation he had to fill. There were few men who could have done it with t qual satisfaction and respectability. They were aware that in former days that house and the grounds around it were frequented in masses by the highest and most respectable circles. They crowded on each other's heels. That, however, passed, and a different class followed them, and it required no ordinary degree of moral strength and power to deal with such parties. Their friend, the host, had had the fag end, as he might call it, of the lease. Its day was going by, but the man ner in which Mr. Rouse had performed his duties was of no ordinary character. It might appear that the but nagement of such a house was a mere matter of course, but that was a mistake. However, arduous as the task was, Mr. Rouse had discharged it with the highest sa tisfaction to the magistrates, and to all the neighbour hood.—(Loud cheers.) His friends and neighbours had, in testimony of their esteem and respect, presented him with a testimonial, which was now before them, and which, though, no doubt, highly gratifying to his feel ings, was given with equal gratification by n thena, as well deserved on Mr. Rouse's part —(Cheers.) He would not detain them longer, but simply give Mr. House's health, with a cordial wish, in which he knew they would all heartily participate, that health, happiness, and prosperity, might attend him for many years to come. Mary Davies replied that she informed her master and mistress what her position with the prisoner was, and on Thursday, when he came to see her, she asked to see the will bequeathing him the property, and also the solici tor's letter, which he promised to bring the next morning (Friday), but she saw nothing more of him until he was in custody. Her master it was, who finding he did not keep his appointment, went to the prisoner's farmer em ployer (a Mr. Jackson), and there ascertained his ad dress, and discovered that he was married. He was then given into custody. . _ In defence the prisoner said he never obtained any money by false pretences. The young woman wrote him a letter, and he saw her. He was short o f money , and she said, do not want, and sent him a sovereign the next day by the errand boy, and at other times had given the money without him asking for one penny of it. The officer said that on searching the house he found a waistcoatpiec?, which Mr. Watson believed to be his property. Mr. Watson here said that the prisoner left his ser vice about a imonth back. The waistcoatpiece, he be lieved, to be his property, and stolen from his warehouse. Alderman Grim said he should remand the prisoner until Monday, for farther evidence respecting the waist coat• piece, and also for the attendance of Mr. Walmsley, the master of the young woman. The toast was drunk with loud and long-continued cheering, and having been followed by a song composed for the occasion by Mr. Turner, which was unanimously encored, Mr. A. ROUSE rose to return thanks, evidently labour ing under feelings of deep emotion. He said he felt his position deeply, and was, in tact, completely overwhelmed by it. There had assembled such a body of gentlemen, personal friends, around him on that occasion, as had completely taken away his utterance. The Chairman, who had proposed his health, had known him from boy hood as a servant and a master, and when, with all his fireside-loving qualities, he had come forward to speak of his character in the manner he had done, it was a matter of the highest gratification. It might have been possible for other gentlemen to occupy that chair, but, so far as he was concerned, the praise of one who had known him in every relation of life for the last 25 years was the highest gratification he could possibly enjoy. With respect to the testimonial that had been presented to him, he could only say that it was altogether unex• petted by him, anti originated with a number of gentle men quite independent of him. He therefore felt the more deeply the honour conferred upon him. With respect to Mr. Dennis, the gentleman who has now taken a 99 years' lease of the ground for building pur poses, he had only to say that he had ever found him a true man. Upwards of two years ago, he sought Mr. Dennis's opinion, as a friend and practical man, having in view building upon the ground himself, and he could only say that Mr. Dennis had then given him advice and instruction at a time when he could not have the most remote idea of becoming lessee, which, to his honour be it said, he had acted up to when he came to Emil / ar rangements for taking the property himself. XI tt-r,a few other observations Mr. Rouse concluded by heartily thanking the meeting for the honours they had dono him, and sat down amidst loud applause. Mr. JAMES BOULTON, after paying a high compliment to the Chairman for the many virtues which charac terised him, both in public and private, proposed his health, which that gentleman briefly acknowledged. Though for the last fifty years he had spent his life among the licensed victuallers and hotel keepers of the metropolis, yet he had not more than once or twice oc cupied that position before, and if he had discharged his duties to their satisfaction, it was a sufficient reward to him. He regretted that the occasion of their meeting should be to pull down that magnificent building; but in these days time was making sad changes, and in no way more remarkably than with houses of that deseription. He remembered, when he was a young man, gcing to Bag nigge Wells at the time when it was the height of the fashion. For what reason he knew not, perhaps it was that times were not so good with him as they were now, the officers refused him admittance. He turned round re solved never to enter there again, and he never did till he was called upon, about thirty years ago, to dispose of the whole property. Yet that place, within his recol lection, was the aristocratic place; of resort, to r, Lich there was scaredy any chance of adniiiioil - from the mense crowds who went there. In the course of time the fate of Baguigge Wells had oYortaken White CCM. A young man, named Robert Nicholls, was charged with attempting to pass a bad sixpence, under the fol lowing9ircumstances. Mr. - Thomos Goulding, of the Grapes public-house. Jewin-street, said that early the previous day the pri soner entered and calk(' for half a pint of beer, at the same time laying down a bad sixpence in payment. Having been victimised several times before, he accord- ingly sent for the police and gave him into custody. Alderman Gismos—Then you are old acquaintances. Prosecuter—He has made several calls on me and passed bad money. Alderman GIBBS—How many times? Prosecutor—On the first occasion he came as a gen tleman's servant out of place. The next time he paid me a visit he was dressed as a bricklayer's labourer, with a flannel jacket. On the third occasion he appeared with large bag or canvass trowsers, such as painters sometimes wear to save their clothes; and yesterday he appeared in the character of a butcher, and being de termined to be done no longer, he said to himself, " Now then, old fellow, I'll nail you"—(Great laughter)—and accordingly detained him. George Trew, a police officer, said he knew the pri soner, and bad often seen him dressed as a wire-drawer. Rowe, the officer who had the prisoner in custody, intimated that if the prisoner's butcher's frock and apron were taken off, he would appear in another character. The Alderman ordered them to be taken off, when, amidst great laughter, there stood at the bar an engineer. The prisoner said that what had been stated was false; he had not been so long in London, for he only left Bristol a week since. Alderman GIBBS remanded him for one week, for the purpose of introducing him to Mr. Powell, solicitor to the Mint. THE BARON DE BODE V. THE QUEEN. This well-knowncase is again before the courts, being now brought on by writ of error against the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench. Mr. Sergeant MANNING commenced his address yes terday, and did not conclude till this afternoon. Mr. Baron PARSE then said, the Court would let the Attorney- General know on Wednesday, whether they would require to hear him on behalf of the Crown. In the course of the argument, Mr. Sergeant MANNING stated that the money which the Biron claimed had, in truth, been expended in the purchase of furniture for the Pavilion at Brighton. CORBETT V. PLATT. Mr. Cobbett brought an action against the defendant, who was the keeper of the Queen's Prison, for impro perly detaining him in custody. The defendant pleaded that he detained the plaintiff by virtue of a warrant issued by Lord Denman for the removal of prisoners who were confined in the Fleet Prison to the Queen's Prison, when the former prison was abolished. Mr. Cobbett had been confined in the Fleet, under an orde r of the Lord Chancellor for contempt, he not having paid a sum of money for costs. The present action was brought in the Court of Queen's Bench, when it was de cided that the plea was an answer to the action. Mr. Cobbett then brought his writ of error in this Court, to reverse the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench, on the ground that the plea was bad. Mr. Cobbett ar gued his own case in the course of last Michaelmas Term. During last week Mr. Watson was heard on the part of Captain Hudson, and Mr. Cobbett was also heard in reply. The Court to-day gave judgment, stating that all the Judges who had heard the case were of opinion that the plea was good, and consequent l y the judgment of the Court of Queen's Bench would be affirmed. The war rant of Lord Denman had the effect of transferring to the Queen's prison the custody of all prisoners com mitted under warrants, which were lawful upon the face of them—if they were unlawful upon the face of them the keeper would not be justified by Lord Denman's warrant. The statute extended to all prisoners impri soned under lawful process. The justification of the keeper depended upon the process handed over to him, and that was the warrant of Lord Denman. Judgment affirmed. PREROGATIVE COURT, Feb. 3. (Before Sir 11. JENNER FUST.) SUSANNAH CROW, DECEASED. Dr. DEAN applied fok probate to the will of the testa trix, who died on the 19th of December last, on the part of the brother (there were also two sisters of the testa trix), who made affidavit that, in searching among her papers, he found the one now before the Court, and that it was in the same state in which he found it. This paper disposes of the testatrix's property, said to be about SON., but there were no executors named. Charles Crow, her brother, mow prayed probate to be granted to him upon giving security. This will was made on the 17th July, 1837, upon her going to France, wherein she says, this is my will "if I do mot return from France." But she did return, and resided in this country some months previous to her death. It might be supposed that those words might imply some other disposition, if she did return, and cited 4th Haggard's Reports, page 76. The Learned JUDGE said it appeared that the testa trix left a brother and two sisters, who were next of kin, and this paper was found in a bag, and signed by the testatrix, therefore supposed to be entitled to probate, but for those particular words, "If I do not return from France." He (the Learned Judge) thought the case re ferred to did not bear upon this, best there was one in the lst Vesey's reports in point, "If I do not return from Ireland, &c." Under all the circumstances the motion must be rejected. JOHN BRIGGS, DECEASED. Dr. ROBINSON asked for probate. In this case the testator made absolute disposition of his property during his life, of certain shares which were placed in the hands of trustees, for the purpose then stated. The Learned Advocate referred to the case of Tapley v. Kent. _ _ _ The Learned JUDGE felt a difficulty in this case. He did not know how to grant administration in this case, as the absolute assignment had been made during the life of the testator, though it was not to take effect until after his death. The COURT could not grant the application. SILVESTER ENEON, DECEASED. The testator in this case made his will on a sheet of paper, leaving room at the bottom for his signature, but not for the attestation clause, and it was attested at the top of the following page. Dr. RosiNsorr, in applying for the probate. admitted it was not strictly in accordance with the new Will Act, but it was in the spirit of that Act; he, therefore, hoped the Court would grant probate. The Learned JUDGE observed this will was not in the testator's own handwriting. He left 1701., and a father and mother, who would be entitled to the property had he died intestate. He (the Learned Judge) found some difficulty on this question as to what construction might be put upon it by !!t superior Court. He must, therefore, reject the application, but declined giving any opinion upon it. LUCY GALLOWAY, DECEASED. The testatrix resided at Killarney, and made a will in $34, in her own handwriting. The date was in pencil, but it was not executed. She bequeathed her property to her sister Jane for life, and after her death to her niece. The brother, who had no interest under the will, asked for probate. The Learned JUDGE said be must reject the motion, but the parties might propound the paper. REMOLDS V. ROBINSON. Dr. ADDAMS asked for probate, to bo granted to the grand aunt, the party who is to take the full interest under the will of the deceased. There were two parties before the Ccrurt, the estate having been in Chancery. These parties consent to the probate, but asked for pay ment of their costs out of the estate. The Learned JUDGE consented to grant administra tion to the grand aunt and guardian of the minor; but he felt he was not in a situation to order payment of costs out of the estate. At the request of counsel this point was allowed to stand over. _ • ___ CEsCILIA ANN JARVIS, DECEASED. This lady made a will and left the whole of her pro perty for the reduction of the national debt. The next of kin applied to have administration granted to them, the testatrix being of unsound mind at the lime she made her will. The Learned JUDGE wished to know if the Queen's Proctor had consented. The QUEEN'S PROCTOR said he did not. He knew the deceased was insane, but he did not know who were the next of kin. The Learned JUDGE rejected the application. ROBER FRANEY, DECEASED. The testator died on the 4th January, 1849, making will dated 10th July, 1841, appointing his brother, James Ferney, the Rev. Mr. Sturmick, and the firm of Cocke rel! and Co., East India merchants, executors. Appli cation was made for probate to be granted to James Ferney and the Rev. William Sturmick, th e fi rm of Cockerell and Co. being no longer in existence. An affidavit made by Sir George Larpent was presented to the Court to that effect. Dr. DEAN contended the appointment, as the firm was no longer in existence was void, the same as in the event of a death, and quoted the case of the Bishop of Tuam. The Learned JUDGE wished to k now if each partner in the t fi o rm ren w o o u u n l e d e, ad o m r itnhiey might appear and ask to bester? He thought the parti es admitted to prove the will at a future day. He felt no difficulty could arise in obtaining a renunciation, which would be Ithe better way, if they did not intend to act. On principle he must reject the motion. EVANS v. TYLER. This was an application arising out of a difference under the will of J ane Tyler, who appointed the Rev. Thomas Evans and Thomas Tyler, her son, executors. Mr. Evans applied for power to act as the sole executor, as Mr. Tyler, his co-executor, was of imbecile mind, and not fit to manage his own affairs, and that ha was under restraint ; but that he was influenced, by other parties, to insist upon his right as an executor under his mo ther's will. Dr. ADDAMS contended that the application on the part of Mr. Tyler ohould not bo received, as Mr. Tyler was a lunatic, and had attempted the life of his keeper, while walking one day by the seaside, and that the tes- WORSHIP-STREET. Mr. John Plummer, an extensive cotton manufacturer in Golden-lane, St. Luke's, was summoned before Mr. Hammill, to show cause why he had unlawfully ne glected to return to the proper officer, appointed under the provisions of the amended Act relating to labour in factories, the particulars of an accident which occurred upon his premises some weeks since, and by which one of his workmen had sustained serious injuries. The proceedings were laid under the 22d section of the Act 7th Victoria, cap. 15, which requires that " if any accident shall occur in a factory, by which any per son employed therein shall sustain such bodily injury as to prevent him from returning to his work before nine o'clock on the following morning, the occupier of the factory or his principal agent shall, within twenty-four hours of such absence, send a notice thereof in writing to the surgeon appointed for granting certificates of age for the district, in which notice the place to which the injured person has been removed shall be distinctly stated. duit House. It was perhaps inevitable, but notwith standing, an old man might regret the moving of the oil landmarks. Perhaps steam might have a great effect in depreciating the old value of such property; but, at any r ate, the change was undeniable, and all they could do was to accommodate themselves to it.--(Cheers.) With these remarks he would return thanks for the manner in which they had honoured the toast of his health, and give them the health of Mr. Dennis, who became lessee of the property, and who, besides the im provements he contemplated upon it, was already well known to them by many others in the neighbourhood. Mr. DENNIS, in returning thanks, said it certainly did seem at first sight rather vexatious that a splendid room like that, and such a convivial board as that around which they were then met, should give place to the rows of houses which were to be built upon the grounds, so long appropriated to recreation; but it appeared that certain changes were going on in society over which none of them had personally any control, and es for some years it seemed, that in its present state the White Conduit House had not thriven, he could only hope, the new shape it was ab o ut t o assume , t h a t i t wou ld more successful. As far as he was concerned, nothirs should be left undone to secure that result. The CHAIRMAN then said, that as a body of tradesme there were none more successful, more industriousot more charitable than the licensed victuallers. Lookat tt number of them who, by their industry, retired with a com fortable independence. But it was not in that light alone he proposed them. Their Asylum in the Kent-road provided for the aged members of the trade, and their ad mirable school. in the Kenaington-road, provided for the children who were so unfortunate as to need protection, for a period of seven years, and sent them out in such a manner as had enabled them to secure excellent positions in business, and not a few of them bad become ornae merits of society. The gentlemen of a trade who thus knew how to unite a due attention to business with a watchful care over the interests and wants of the unfor tnnate,- both old and young, connected with their par ticular trade, deserved ever y h onour . H e, t h ere f ore , had great pleasure in proposing " The Licensed Vic tuallers and their charitable institutions." Mr. C. IRELAND, in acknowledging the toast, said ho aas deeply sensible of the kindness and courtesy of the Chairman in proposing in proposing it, and also of the company in drinking it. He had for many years been connected with the trade, and bad also had the honour of passing through the chair of the Incorporated Society, and he could fully corrobo rate the statement of the Chairman as to the bene fits of the school. The children were maintained and educated from the age of seven years to fourteen in a superior manner. Many of them, as had 13,e13 said, obtained excellent positions. He might mention that one of the first scholars was now in the same profession as their worthy Chairman, and he believed that Mr. Cottrell would be admitted by the Chairman to be a most respectable member of the procession. The pre sent Secretary of the Society had also been educated in their school. 'At the Asylum the elder members were provided with the means of making the decline of life easy; and, in conjunction with the Protection Society, he believed that the licensed victuallers did provide in the day of prosperity for the highest interests which belonged to them as men as citizens. He had great pleasure in responding to the toast. Several cr,her toasts were proposed and duly responded to, and the company separated at a late hour highly- de lighted with the entertainment of the evening, which, it is but justice to say, was much enhanced by the admir able exertions of Messrs. Edney, Turner, and Jones, the vocalists, and Mr. Higgs, the toastmaster. THE CoUNTRY MARKETS. --- LIVERPOOL, FEB. 3.—The following are the official quan tities which were released from bond, at this port, by the laW for free trade in corn, which came into operation on the Ist instant :—Wheat, 181,126 quarters; flour, 460,532 barrels; oats, 291 quarters; barley, 1,974 quarters ; beans, 10,625 qrs ; and peas, 6,154 quarters. The stock of free grain, &c., here prior to the Ist instant was comparatively small. There was s large attendance of town and country millers at yesterday's market, but the show of samples of grain and flour was only moderate. Wheat and flour met a good, but not an extensive, sale, at the full prices of Tuesday. In a few instances a small advance on each was obtained; but the trade closed with less briskness. Oats were in fair request, at fully late rates. Oat meal improved 6d per load. Beans and peas made quite as good prices as on Tuesday. In barley not much doing. There was a good demand for Indian corn at the top quotation; 31s per 4801 b was paid for American flat yellow corn. Th e trade to• day is buoyant, and extreme prices are paid for most articles. sr. d. s• a Wheat, per 701 b : !Barley, Feeding.. 3 6 to 3 9 English, white . • 7 3 to 7 9ltye, per 4801 b .. 0 0 6 0 Do. rid.. .. 7 0— 7 3' Beans, English, pr Irish, new .. •• 6 0— 6 6 imperial quartr 32 0— 34 0 s. d. 5. d.'
