The circumstances of this case, which has been 15 years in Chancery. rife as follow : Lady Pulteney died in 1773, devising certain estates to her husband, Sir Wm. Pulteney, and her daughter, (afterwards Countess of Bath), for life, with remainder to the issue of either of them ; but in default of such issue, to the use of Sir Richard Sutton and his heirs for ever. The Countess of Bath subsequently mariied Sir James Murray, and in the marriage-settlement she agreed" that a copyhold estate holden of the manor of Stoke Newington, in the county of Alidleaex (which estate she did not derive from. her mother), should be limited, in default of appointment, to go according to the limitations contained in the will of her mother." This estate and agreement are the subject in question. Lady Bath died in 1808, leaving no issue, and in her will she recited the marriage articles, but made no ap pointment of the said copyhold premise,. After her death, the respondent, the Earl of Darlington, took possession of the above estate, as heir at. law, and the appellant claimed a right to it, under the limitation of the marriage -articles; he filed a bill in Chancery in 1810, and in 1817 it was finally heard before the Master of the Rolls, who decreed that the appellant's bill should be dismissed ; from this decree an appeal . was made to the lions:: of Lords. 'l'he Loan CHANCELLOR, after going through the circum stances as here detailed, said, that the principal question was, whether Sir Richard Sutton came under the consideration of the marriage-settleMent, anti thereby was entitled to an equitable estate, and bad a right to call on the heir-at-law to divest himself' of a legal estate, or whether the settlement was such as it had been contended, that other persons had contracted, for Sir Richard, and that he could call on these contractors—to wit, the trustees to the marriage-settlement—to carry the trusts into execution, and have the estate conveyed to him.. He (the Lord Chancellor) confessed that he never met a case that in volved more difficulty. It was argued, on the part of the respon • dents, that the appellant vats a stranger to the articles, and not entitled to consideration of blood or otherwise, to canon a court of equity to have these articles performed to his benefit. This was going to say that it was not the intention of Lady Bath that the • `state should go as expressed in the settlement. There could be no doubt, that when the settlement was made Lady Bath tiid not contemplate dying without issue; but the question en tirely hinged on this-whether any persons had contracted on behalf of Sir Richard. The affirmative was not obvious : he ahould therefore, move, that the decree be affirmed, not so much from a conviction of its rectitude as from the doubts he enter tained of the equity of coming to an opposite conclusion.—'ihe decree was accordingly affirmed. _ ROYAL NAVY, &c.

An opposition _coach has lately been started from Gloucester to run through the Forest of Dean to Cole ford, and as a ruse de guerre, the proprietor at Ruardean has purchased of Meredith, a miller, the mare stolen by Probert, which proves a source of great attraction, as, numbers from curiosity prefer going by that conveyance merely to be drawn •by the animal for stealing which Probert suffered the awful pe nalty of the law.—( Bath herald.) presented them ' On Monday morning, a couple selves at the altar of our parish church, with the intention of being married, having had the bans previously published.

SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING EDUCATION AND INDUSTRY IN CANADA. This Institution held its Meeting on Saturday, at the Freemasons' Tavern,' his Royal Highness the Duke of: Sussex in the Chair. Alma half-past twelve o'clock, his Royal Highness entered the room, accompanied by Lord Bex `ley, Lord Collier, and the Canadian Chiefs.—Having taken the Chair, His RO - Vir, itionimis expressed his regret at the very small number of persons he perceived present. This he could only impute tcr•the shortness of the notice that the Meeting was about to take place, since the liberal support the Society had always received proved that the intentions of every person to wards it were most favourable: - The importance. of the objects which the Society had in view were too well known to require any observations from hirri.. The' persons who acted under its patronage were not desirous of introducing any particular creed or form of the Christian religion, but to teach every one of the unfortunate natives of that vast country the truths of the Bible, and the reciprocal duties of morality. These were, however, only a part of the plan. - ''.lPhey were undoubtedly the most im portant objects; but there were others which very nearly affected our happiness in this world. They were taught industry, arid instructed in those metliodshesecalculated to the convemencies of life. He should not enter any further into detail, as he was convinced there were many Gentlemen who would propose the, respective Resolutions,' who were far better acquainted with the minutia than.himself ; and therefore he would leave to them,. what must always be an agreeable and delightful task—labour inf.; in the cause of virtue.--( Hear, hear t .) Lord BEx LET then rose.—The present cause was one in which, he. was convinced, all present must feel the liveliest in terest. The state of the Canadas rendered it of the utmost im portance that sorne• such' effors as those which were made by this lostitittion, shoilld be extended to that country. I was occupied by an extended and scattered population. Some parts • were hardly ever geographically explored. The original inha bitants, our red, bisthren, were the present occupants of the. greater part of the , Futgliilt dominions, and these were the per sons towards wlnien the efforts of thi s Institution were directed. Therhadbeen,-And weree in a state of semi-liarbarity. Ig norant of the arts of life and the truths of morality; but through the medium of those employed by the Institution, they were en. abled to receive thOse "instructions which would .vender them useful members of society, and fit them for another and a bet ter world. Those-who had been subjected to the: injuries of ages, , whose tribes had almost become extinct, would now soon become the happy Objects of a flourishing state. The system of education, which had for many years been improving, was now employed with the greatest success, and all the advan tages which the plan of the Institution promised, were increas ed in the highest degree. Taking all these circumstances into consideration, he begged to propose as a Resolution, " That a Society be now formed for promoting Education and Industry in Canada. - The object of which shall be to train up Teachers, and assist in the establishment of Schools of Educa tion and 'lndustry among the Indians and Settlers in such parts .of the Provinces of Upper and Lower Canada, as- are destitute of the means of instruction.". . The Rev. Mr. gelnaeretE a seconded the motion. Carried unanimously. Joliet Wiar.Es; .Esqsroxe.—Miserable as was the situation of the poor Canadians,_ yet when we looked back but for a few centuries to the state of Europe, we could not consider they Were then in a better situation, - when we were .under the influence of superstition, and .all our energies were deadened by its baneful influence, before Brimin arose from the and by her efforts tended so mtichao her own honour and the benefit of her - fellow creatures.. To the Canadians ; the object of the present insti tution was, - that a portion of this benefit might be extended. There we had already a • noble example before our eyes. In Canada, Catholics ;s in Catlada, Episcopalians ; in Canada, Presbyterians ; in Canada, Methodists ; in . Canada, Dissenters of every description joined for the purpose of sharing the benefit they themselves.enjoyed. In fact, from accounts which he had lately received from America, he was assured that every seat and persuasion had entered into a generous competition of their fellow. men. These were the liberal. principles which should ever guide the mother country in its conduct towards the colonies. In establishing and extending colonies we were in fact peopling the world I..ith Titan" but whether they would use their power like Titans, and rebel against their parent and war.upon the peace of society, was a question awful in contd. deration, and might be fatal in result. .However, if liberality - Were adopted - ; if virtue was instituted ; if morality were up -held ; if the truths of Divine Revelation, were disseminated as proposed by the SOcietiee like the present, there would be no cause for alarm, and the giant strength thus possessed, might be :tuned to the happiness and benefit of themselves and the country whence - they sprang: This was the state in which we now lived in England, and this was, lie hoped, the state in which we always should live. 'And when those natives of Canada who had thiselay lionourcaalteilleetiag by their presen ce , returne d to their native Woods, assembled their simple and innocent countrymen, to tell them of the wonders they had seen, they might then ray that our bonds were bonds of silk and flowers, which neither force ror ingenuity could rend—( Hear !)_"r was true, the. Canadians were descended from the French, but they had now beceiee l3ritcns ;- and therefore we should hail them as brother Britons, that henceforth, the remembrance of fornier miseries might .nbt cause the sigh of - sorrow to burst from their bosoms. Some had doubted of the greatness of mind which governed - the conduct of the Canadians, but he was aware of a circumstance , urinal clearly proved they were as great in gallantry and honour, as the most enlightened of the European nations.. In the" course of a particular war which broke out between the: . Cherokees and another tribe, 'a beauti ful woman, one of thehostile tribe, was taken primmer ; accord ing to custom ,of law of the Cherokees, she was to be sacrificed to their offended Deities. The nation assembled, the fatal knife was drawn—the priest approached his victim—the murmur of savage pleasure echoed through the crowd—the exulting look of pleasure—the demoniac grin of delight lighted every counte nance, when a youth, the hero of the tribe, rushed to the spot, caught the unhappy female in his arms, hurried her to a horse lie prepared, placed her on it, and mounted another himself, and, then, with thought•like swiftness, disappeared from the eyes and the pursuit of his astonished countrymen. Havingar rived at an English settlement, he deposited his charge in safety, and then returned to his countrymen, to receive the punish. merit of his nation inflicted on those who should thtas rescue a prisoner. Far, however," from dishonouring, disgracing, or in juring him, they admired his bold and daring gallantry, and raised him to higher pitch than ever of honourable importance. —(lcer, hear!)—Gould the most chivalrous Knight of Europe have done more for the protection of hie mistress ? or, could the most chivalrous Nation do tnorefor the honour of its Knight ? ( Hear !)--When he thought of these virtues—when he thought of these,dispositions—wh en he thought of the advantage this Society must secure to all who were admitted as participators of its benefits, he did, with the great6t confidence, hope his Rein. lotion would be unanimously carried. " Resolved that certain regulations should be adopted as those best suited for the inter nal government of the Society." The Rev. Wm. EVANSON seconded the resolution. The Right Hon. Lord CorareEn felt particularly gratified in contemplating the great benefit which must result from the present institution. Indeed, it was but fair that this country, which had derived go much happiness from the system of free dom and mutual communication of instruction should share those benefits; and render the unhappy natives America par ticipators of their go od fortune. With every wish for the tvel fare of the institution, lie begged leave to proposed, as a resolu tion, "This his Royal Highness should be humbly rectoesfed to accept the office of Vice-Patron, and that certain other gen tlemen would accept the other offices of the Institution." Lieutenant GORDON seconded the motion. A Resolution was then proposed; for a subscription for the eiipport of theinatitution, which was carried. The principal of the Canadian Chiefs then preposed, " That the thanks of the Meeting should be given to his Royal High ness the Duke of Sussex, for the very kind and condescending manner in which he had, on the present occasion, presided." Lord BEXLEY seconded the motion. - His Roy a l Highnes s ret u rned th a nk s for the obli g i ng manner in which lie had been elected Vice-Patron, and said, that as far as his humble abilities would permit, he should be always happy to give the Society his fullest support.—The meeting then broke up. CII iRLES CA RTWIIIGHT, Esq.--This Gentle man died on Saturday morning, at his seat, Bertrams,'Hamp stead, aged 72. Mr. C. was a Magistrate for the county of Middlesex, was late Accountant-General to the East India. Company, and retired from office after a service of rayears. Be was a most worthy and benevolent man, and closed the concerns of this life by an act as singular as it was pious.

SOuyffitAirToN. JULY 2.=- I Jur worthy Member, Sir W. CRESPIONY, Bart. arriyEsi at. Anspach House . „ on Sunday last, for a short stay . - here. Public rumour is very busy in imputing to several individual, an intention of offer ing themselves to the Representation of the town at the ensuing election. Five o r six are named, We at a late hour this morning received Sattir day's French Papers, which do not contain any important information.—The following are ex- tracts : (From Galignani's Messenger of Saturday, July.) The Courier from Madrid has just arrived with dispatches, announcing that General Coro is suspended. Ile has orders to embark this night . for His ultimate destination is not known. Fromm 71U, Journal des Debate.) CADIZ, JUNL 14.—Government sends by every courier orders to hasten the equipment of MOO troops at this port for the Havannah. Letteia have been receiVetrat Trieste from the Peloponnesus of the 14th of June, which does not mention any further news since the victory of the Greeks before 111odon. A let ter from Cadiz of the 7th was received yesterday, which mentions that the French squadron was cruizing Off that 'port for the purpose of preventing vessels from the Havannah going in; as there was reason to fear the fever prevailed at the latter place. The Portuguese vessels in the Tagus at one o'clock gave a royal salute, and the English squadron, under the command of Beauclerk, did the same, in honour of that memorable day, the Coronation. • • FRENCH FUNDS.—It is said the French Rents are 103 f. 60c. We received last night the Pads Papers of Thursday and Friday. They contain little in telligence of any interest—extracts will , how ever, he found in another column. The. Flanders mail, arrived this morning, has brought us the Ghent Journal of the 2d July. ft contains letters from Corfu, Trieste, Frank fort, and Madrid. The three first refer to the affairs of Greece, and will be foUnd below. The latter bas a - proClaMation from the celebrated D. FltAbldlA, to the inhabitants of Paraguay, perMitting the reception of fugitives from the belligerent armies of Peru. With regard to the accounts from Greece they are confirmatory of the news we hayealready given, and afford but little new intelligence. The Moreau and and Egyptian forces are said 'to increase daily ; REDsctilD PACHA has also received reinforce merits, and has resumed the offensive. How far these accounts may be relied on does not appear, and the exaggerated reports of events transpiring in Greece that, have at different times reached us, put us on our guard against too great confidence in flying rumours. With these remarks we sub mit the following extracts to our readers.: — CORFU, MAY 27.—We are informed from good authority that Redschid Pacha has made two desperate attacks on Nis solonghi, but was repulsed- by the Greeks. The loss on both sides was great. There is no doubt of the taking of Navarino. Th e Ottoman and Egyptian forces increase daily. We are consequently in expectation of decisive events.—( Gazzetta Piemontere, June 23.) . Letters from Trieste say, that the accounts of the brilliant successes obtained by the Greeks have been all at once suc ceeded by news very unfavourable to their cause. it was said that RedsChld Pacha,' who had received reinforcements, has resumed the offensiVe, and had obtained great advantages, which were partly owing to the desertion or the retreat of seve ral Greek Chiefs who commanded advanced posts. All this t however, needs confirmation. FRANKFORT, JUNE I6.—Several letters announce that the siege of Patras is raised, and that the Greeks have only left a very small corps of observation in the vicinity of the place. The communications between Patras and Lepanto are nowifree. A numerous Greek corps, under the command of General bourse. is beyond Salons. We learn that the Turkish troops in Thes. saly are again advancing towards that town. Parliament is expected to be Prorogued on Wednesday next, by Commission.

The King's Advocate and Mr. Tyndall were heard at considerable length against the appellants, after which Mr. Fonblanque was heard in reply. 'Their Lordships broke up about half-past four o'clock. By advises from Panama, dated early in May, we learn that intelligence had reached Lima of an engagement in Upper Peru having taken place between OLANET and General Sucaa, in Willett OLANETA sustained a total defeat, followed by the entire dispersion of the forces under his corn mand. OLANETA himself is said to have escaped, but was wandering as a fugitive, accompan►ed only by a handful of his followers. The surrender of Callao had not taken place, but could not be long delayed, as the besiegi►►g force on the land side had succeeded in entirely cutting off the supply of fresh water. BRUSSELS, JUNE 30.—Her Majesty the QUEEN. passed through this city at seven 'o'clock this' morning, and proceeded directly to the Palace of Lucknow.

STONE-WAYS.—A private letter,of recent date , from St. Petersburg!), states, that in the prio ri' pal streets of that capital TVOOden-tatws are Jar ing down on both sides, on which carriages m a i run smooth, and without noise. It is singular. enough that a similar plan•for laying down Slone' wa,'s is about to he carried into effect in th is country, and, with a view to prove the advat' Cages of the Stone-way Company, that a street the city will be submitted to the test of exper t' ment. An experimental Stone-way,is atao to V I tried, on an extended scale, on, one of the bi g ' roads In the vicinity of the metropolis ; and as plane surfa c e .wi ieiet m i t;s o t f diminish st m t e timber, frictionit is o wheels,f the mor e than ' probable that Stolie.ways, on accoun t r their greater durability than Timber-wa, be generally adopted in this country. 1'" UNITED SOCIETY OF CABINET MAKERS." -.
