LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Dec. 20. JUDGMENT.—BEYDO N V. WATSON. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case. An indenture of lease and release had been executed by a Mr. Charles Snow, conveying certain lands and premises to Wm. Watson and others, as trustees, with power to sell absolutely, by public or private sale, the lands so conveyed, and with power also to make them over to the purchasers of such lands, with or without the consent of the said Charles Snow. The money arising from these sales was to be applied to the discharge of the debts of certain creditors of Charles Snow, the residue, if any, to go to Mr. Snow himself, his executors, or assigns. The trustees, it -appeared, did not sell these lands, or any part of them, and Charles Snow died in 1818, the debts remaining unpaid. The main ques tion now arising was, whether the surplus re maining after the discharge of the above-named debts, could be still considered to form part of the real personal estate of the original holder of the pro perty. The trustees having absolute power to sell the remainder of the property after the payment of the debts, and not, being authorised to raise money in any other way, this must be considered conveyance out and out, though the purpose of the conveyance was only the payment of certain debts. The character of the, property remained unchanged up to the time of the death of the holder, and though the deeds were executed in 1815, and the testator did not die till three years afterwards, this did not affect the question. The owner might have availed himself of the interval, but he did nothing. The surplus in question must, there fore, be considered part of the testator's property, and be administered according to the deed of conveyance. TILE NEW CHANCERY ORDERS. Mr. RICHARDS applied to his Lordship on the sub ject of the new orders in Chancery, referring to the fees for copies in the Masters' office. By the last orders the charge fixed for office copies was 6d. a folio, and a further. charge of 4d. a folio was also made for entering that copy ; this made a charge of 10d. a folio; it was considered that the second charge of 4d. a folio ought not to be made. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, before the date of the last orders the copy money was lid. a folio, and then a charge was made of 6d. a folio for entering the ac counts, such entry being considered a copy. The copy money was now 4d. a folio, and it had therefore been represented to him that by analogy the two charges should be 6d. and 4d., That was the point presented for his consideration. Mr. RICHARDS said, his Lordship would find, on referring to the 32d section, that the officers receiv ing the fees for the examination of affidavits and other copies, charged 6d. a folio, but they were directed to deduct 14d. a folio out of it, before it was paid over to the fee fund. It was submitted, therefore, that by analogy, the Id. paid to the Master's clerk for the entry, should be deducted before it was paid over. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he would ascertain the point. Every one knew that the money belonged to the public, and not to the Master. He would take care that it should be put on the right footing. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Dec. 20. (Sittings at Nisi Prius at the Guildhall, before Lord DENMAN and a London Special Jury.) SIR J. HARE v. BARSTOW. This was an action brought by Sir John Hare against the Yorkshire Insurance Company, to recover the valite of an oil mill which had been insured in the defendants' office, and which had subsequently been burnt down. The premises in question were situated in the city of Bristol, and one portion was used as an oil mill and another as a mill for grinding dye wood. Sir John Hare had insured the premises in the York shire Insurance-office, intending to include the whole of the machinery in the insurance, and the agent to the Company had gone over the mill prior to the in surance being effected. A fire occurred, which had destroyed that portion occupied as a dye wood mill, together with the mill machinery therein contained. The defendants paid 2661. into Court, that being the sum for which the building containing the dye-wood machinery was insured, and contended that, according to the wording of the policy, they were not liable for the machinery. Mr. ERLE, for the plaintiff, contended that it was evident that the parties intended to effect an insurance on the whole, including the machinery, and thought they had done so when the polic e was'effected. The ATTORNEY -G ENERAL f o r defendants, contended that the question was not what the parties had intended wording of the to do, but what they, had actually done , an d , from the Policy, he submitted that the machinery was not includ e d. The Jury f oun d a verd i ct f or th e plaintiff--Damages 2221., in addition to the 2261. paid into Court. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Dec. 20 COOK AND OTHERS V. PRITCHARD.-IN HITCHCOCK'S BANKRUPTCY . The plaintiff s are the assignees of William Hitch cock, formerly carrying on an extensive business in Regent -street as a linen -draper, whose examination in the Court of Bankruptcy lately attracted so much of public attention. The defendant is a gentle man of property, re tired from busine ss , an d th e brother o f th e b an k r upt's solicit or , o f t h e fi rm of Marden and P r it c h a rd, at whose instance, it a p peare d , h eg pc a ci gave the ass i s tance, out of the tran sac ti ons con e bankrupt at different ti mes consider ablenected with which the present case arose. The action was brought to recover, for the general benefit of the bankrupt's estate, the sum of 2 ,0001., with interest thereon, alleged to have been paid to the defendant by undue and fraudulent preference, and with collusion, after Hitchcock had committed acts of bankruptcy, to the knowledge of the defendant. The case for the plaintiff was conducted by Sir Thomas Wilde, with whom were Mr. Pl a tt, Q.C., Mr. Watson, and Mr. B. Chambers. Th e Att orney - General, r. Sergeant Channel], and Si r J o h n Bailey, appeared for the defendant. The main facts as they were made out in the evidence of the plain tiff's witnesses, whose examination occupied the whole of yesterday to five o'clock, were as follows :—ln the latter part of the year 1840, the bankrupt requested his solicitors, Marclen,and Pritchard, to raise him a loan of about 1,000/., which he undertook to secure upon the lease of the valuable premises in Regent street. At their request the defendant advanced the sum bill of exchange for 2,0001., 0f deducting l7Bs re t c h e e iv d i i n ff g ere a nc e • by way of interest, and taking the lease as a collateral security. In some months afterwards, Hitchcock applied for an other loan, and through the same means it was advanced to him by the defendant, who, it appeared on the se cond occasion, received a guarantee for the whole sum from Mr. George Hitchcock, the brother of the bank rupt. In the meanwhile the affairs of the latter grew daily more involved, and the bill for 2,000/. beingcon siderably over due on the lath of August, 1841, the defendant in a peremptory manner on th a t d ay in sisted that hi s brother's house should take i:nmediate steps to enforce the payment ; accordingly they sent their clerk to Hitchcock, threatening that if he did not pay they would commence an action and make an affidavit of debt, whereby he would be compelled to had at thi s ti me i n their possession s akup. T six x n n r 9tic t es of hy a e etion which had been served upon hi with affidavits of debt m by other creditors, so that it would seem they knew the critical state of his affairs. A clerk from the house of Ellis and Everington proved that upon that day he paym ent o f a bill o f e xchange c o a v l a l r ed d o u n e th f e er ba 2 n 9 k o ru l. p a t fo ad r upwards, and that upon his asking Hitchcock whether he could pay were other hou who had treated him well, and deserved a preference, only that he was resolved to give none, though Everington's had done him a great deal of injury, and it was through their reports and' the badness of trade he was unable to meet his engagements. A clerk from Messrs. Wreford and C o., and other witnesses, gave evidence of applications to the like effect, with similar answers. The examination of the defendant before the Commissioners of I 3 ankruptcy was read at great length, the most material part of which was, that he had or the partner on th e su bj ec t o f th e d e bt, f u rth er than to never s s e t l d any upon conversations with his brother the 13th of August, that th may should be r ecovered ; that he did not know and never inquired h ow the payments were ma d e, but that the whole W as n e paid into his bankers between he 18th and the 21st of August. For the plaintiffs it was shown that in that interval the bankrupt had made great sacrifices of property to raise a sum about sufficient to meet the defendant's demand, and that the Property was disposed of in a very unusual manner for that of a retail dealer. Goods of the value of 2,6001. at the cost price were sold, through the medium of a commission broker and others for about 1.7501. It was also shown that' the lease of the house, the acceptances toPritchard, and George Hitch • cock's guarantee W ere given up about the same time. For the defendant, it was contended by the ATTOR NEY-GENERAL, 111 an eloquent speech of two hours' duration, that his Conduct throughout had. been, upon the plaintiff's own showing, perfectly free from every thing like fraud or collusion. Being a man of ample means, he had, at the instance of his brother, who was in business, given to the bankrupt that pecuniary as sistance .by which he was enabled to carry on his business for some months longer than he otherwise co uld have done. I t was not to be supposed that if Mr. Pritchard, the solicitor, had been faithfully in formed by the bankrupt of the real state of that per son's affairs, he would have advised his brother to lend so large a sum, and two months afterwards to make a further loan of an equal amount As the issue depended upon the motives upon which the bankrupt acted, it was clearly shown by the plain tiffs themselves that lie had not acted as free agent in making the payment. He was not a free agent, nor did he give a voluntary preference. Although his affairs seemed to others, and really were desperate at the time, they did not seem so to him, and, perhaps, he contemplated a means of extrication through ; Pritchard, in payment of this debt. The defendant , had done only what was natural an d reaso nable, and LONDON AND DOVER. OPEN TO ASHFORD STATION. DOWN Departure from) London. 930 M 11 30 1 30 E* 4 0 5 30 MAINS. UP TRAINS.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE having summed up the evidence Laid it was for the Jury to say whether, under all the circumstances, the bankrupt, who, as well as his solicitor, must have been aware in the in terval between the 18th and 20th of August, that his affairs were irretrievable, contemplated his bankruptcy at the time he made the payments to defendant. If so, however hard the case might seem to be to Mr. Pritchard, their verdict must be for the plaintiffs, and the defendant must share in the losses of the other creditors. But, if they believed, on the other hand, that Hitchcock expected to get over his diffi culties, and made the payment by compulsion, and not voluntarily or by fraudulent collusion, they must find for the defendant. The Jury retired to consider their verdict, and after an hour's deliberation found for the plaintiffs, damages 2,0001. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Dec. 20. A MONEY LENDER.-.IN RE THOMAS WILLIAM TOTTING^ HAM PRESCOTT. The insolvent's petition to be discharged was op posed by Mr. Cooke, on behalf of Mr. Cox, a hatter in Nassau-street, with whom he contracted a small debt in August, 1839, under false pretences. In the evidence of the opposing creditor but little appeared of general interest. The insolvent having been sworn and examined, said that in the month of June, 1841, he inserted an advertisement in the daily papers to the following effect :—" Money Lent. —A gentleman having money unemployed, is willing to invest a portion of it at inter rest on loans, to ladies and gentlemen of rank and posi tion in society, in the Army, Navy, and the Church. Ap ply by letter only, confidentially, to A. B , at 40, Rath bone .place." In consequence of this announcement he got cards struck after the name Andrew Barlow, under which he intended to carry on his monetary dealings. At this time he had not a farthing of his own, nor had he any chance of raising it from other sources; but his mother, who resided at 49, Park - street, Grosvenor-place, lent him about 150/. I n February, 1841, a t r i a l at the suit of Captain Na thaniel Boyce French Shaw for crim. con. was insti tuted against him, and a verdict, with 100!. damages given, which he (the insolvent) never paid. Previous to that time he received a sum of about 5001., but from whom, or on what account received, he obstinately re fused to make known. Mr. NicuoLLs, on behalf of the insolvent, con tended that he had no right to answer the question, inasmuch as, owing to the peculiarity of the circum stances, he might thereby subject himself and other parties to an indictment for conspiracy. The COURT desired that the question should be answered. The insolvent—l decline answering that question, under the direction of my Counsel. The COURT having stated its determination to send tho,insolvent back to prison if the question was not answered, The insolvent said he received about 1501. about three months before the trial, all of which was paid in sovereigns. He would not say whether it was from Captain Shaw he got it or not. Mr. COOKE contended that inasmuch as the receipt of the 5001. was not mentioned in the schedule, he was bound in justice to the body of the creditors to state from whom he received it, and under what circumstances it was disbursed. The peculiarity of the circumstances connected with the trial for trim. con. rendered this the more impera tive, because the very first question put before the highest tribunal in the kingdom in divorce cases to a husband seeking to lie divorced from his wife, was whether any collusion existed between him and the defendant, with respect to the trial in which the suit of divorce was founded. A long discussion here ensued with regard to the tight of the insolvent to answer the question. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that as the insol vent showed so much pertinacity in the matter, he (the Learned. Commissioner) would allow the time of the Court to be no longer occupied. The case was then adjourned; and the schedule was ordered to be amended by the insertion of the circumstances under which the above 5001. were received and disbursed. NEWS. Browell, the steward of Guy's Hospital, under the following circumstances. The defendant having a son that died in Guy's Hospital, went with a dozen more of his countrymen that morning for the corpse. While the porters were bringing the coffin down, the defendant and his com panions made a rush with the view of getting pos session of the deceased. In their attempt to effect that object, the defendant struck the steward of the Hospital, and knocked him down. It appeared that the defendant and his friends had an impression that the body of his son was going to be dissected, but this was removed by the steward, who said that the practice of the Hospital was to deliver up deceased persons to their friends, and that the porters were in the act of bringing down the corpse of the defendant's son when the assault was committed. The MAGISTRATE having remarked on the absurd notion that many of the lower orders of the Irish had with respect to persons who died in the Hospital being dissected, the defendant was fined 10s.

Brow COLLEGE LIFE.—The singular "life" led at our English Universities by the young seions of the re spective aristocracies of birth and wealth , has hitherto been guessed at rather than known, except in the limited circles to which the partakers in it belong- Thanks to the well-known and popular "Peter Prig gins" (henceforth to be still better know" , and still more popular, as Mr. J. Hewlett, M.A., of Worcester' College, Oxford), the sealed book has become an open one. His new work, " College Life," unites to all the humour, oddity, and entertainment of the write rs . first production, " Peter Priggins,". a variety an d range of character, a fund of anecdote, and an on of style, that will greatly extend leis well._ deserved reputation, and for force and humour, it is scarcely surpassed by the best works of the late Theodore Hook, under whose auspices this.. writer was first introduced to public notice. A young man named John James Hammond was brought before Messrs. Roots and Shrubsole, a t the , Town-ball K . , , Kingston, yesterday, in custody of ThoM 3s ,_ Wagstaff, a sergeant of the 3d regiment, charged wit" cir cumstances. The sergeant stated that the defendant came a rogue and vagabond, under the following cir breadth a ro ot came to him and offered to serve her Majesty, and he put the usual questions to him respecting his health, &e., and also asked him whether he had ever before served in the army, to all which questions he gave .satisfactory answers, and witness enlisted him, and subsequently gave him twelve shillings- The was then taken to London, and examined by the regi mental surgeon, who immediately discovered that he prisoner was quite unfit for the service : and thj prisoner wa! at the same time recognised as having prisoner before, under similar circumstances. The was then taken before the Colonel of the regiment, who put some questions to him, when ,he admitteq been rejected that he had played the same trick t wice before, and that this was his third attempt; and the Colonel, on hearing this statement, directed that he should be taken before the civil authorities, to•be dealt with as a rogue and vagabond, under the statute. The Ma gistrates asked the defendant whether he w ished to, make any answer to the charge, and he . re p li e that. he had nothing to say. The Magistrates said that mode of " raising the wind" must be put an end to, al they committed the defendant for three months, to bar labour, at the House of Correction. ' CLEANLINESS.—A white yellow cravat or shirt on a man, speaks at once the character of his wife; an a c l he you assured, that she will not take with youthen, ' pains which she has never taken with her own. g ,., the manner of putting on the dress is no bad fou . v up e t do tion for judging : if it be carelessly,:slovenly, i' m ean not fit properly. No matter for its mean quality : IT I- d, as it may be, it may be neatly and trimly put on ; a n ig if it be not, take care of yourself, for, as you 0 soon find to your cost, a sloven in. one thing 'L e sloven in all things. The country people :lu l u :. greatly from the state of the covering of the a nc i c c i a : and if that be not clean and tight , t he y cone uok that all out of sight is not what it ought to be. Lcon at the shoes. If they be trodden on one side, loos b a d the foot, or run down at the heel, it is a very °':..,, sign; and, as to slip-shod, though at coming downotir the morning, and even before daylight, make 11 P 71, : f e . mind to a rope, rather than live with a slipshod 7%e Oh ! how much do women lose by inattention torero matters ! Men, in general, say nothing about t 1 their wives ; but they think about it ; they enq it luckier neighbours ; and, in numerous quences the most (serious arise from this uses' c° tiy one aren of 'the trifling cause. Beauty is valuable ; it is cannot last ties, and a strong tie too ; that, however, never ends to an old age; but the charm of cleanl iness but with life itself.—Cobbett. -- ",,,,,f7 .- - - - 0 0 n n t t h h e e l l . 6t th h t i ta ns: :: tattEpxneteternr,ntstheerldwy,of Thomas BIRTHS.
