NO` TNIBM 2l , lt COUNTRY BANKERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SbN. Sta,—Seeing that your respectable - paper lends its columns to the " Banking Controversy" now raging with su ch violence, allow. roe to ask a question, as connected with the c irculation of the .Country Bankers. It is not un common in many parts north of London, to see written on a pane of glass on the window of the Bank,—" Open from 9to 12, and from . 1 to 4,"—so that a holder 'of one of their notes, whose convenience or .business might prompt him to present the note between 12 and 1, would have to wait till the 'Bank opened, or go away unsatisfied. What I wish to know is this note being made payable to bearer on d e mand, .has the issuer of that note a right to shut up his shop, at an hour of the day, which, according to the custom of trade, is a business hour? And what have I, a holder of that note, made payable on demand, to do with his convenience? lam passing through Gainshorougb, for instance—l know nothing of what the Banker plasters upon his windo'tv, and I hold a note of his payable on de mand, and I present it at a time in the day whenAt suits him to absent himself from his .office, but At an hour Which the law considers as an hoursof business. Seeing the Bank shut up, have I not a right to return the note to the party I ,had it of as unpaid ? And would an action lie against me for doing so ? Supposing, Mr. Editor, Bankers who issue paper had a right to abdicate in the middle of the day :—Some of them. might not be satisfied with shutting up shop for an hour— they might, the principle being established, take two hours to their dinner instead of one, and write a fresh advertise- anent in the window. My opinion is, that any Banker issuing notes, payable to bearer on demand, is bound by the instrninent to pay those notes at any time of the day the holder chooses to present them ; that is to say, during those hours which the custom of merchants consider as " hours of business"—and that the only way for the Banker to.get a spare hour in the day from the toils of Banking, is to ex press upon the next circulation of paper— " I promise to pay the Bearer, on demand, One Pounds excepting between the hour of 12 and 1, when I and my wife take a bit of dinner." I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, London, Nov. 22, 1827. H. H. THE DEAN AND CHAPTER AND VICARS CHORAL OF ST. PETER'S, WESTMINSTER. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) It is believed that the ambition of many meets its entire gratification in notoriety, and the important place they seem to themselves to fill in the public eye. To sit attentive " to their own applause," is no trivial gratification to that overweening vanity, which constitutes so large an .ingre dient in the corrupt compound of human qualities. • " To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell." In a published letter, dated 2d June, 1823, addressed to the Reverend the Precentor of the Collegiate Church of St. Peter, Westminster, by the Rev. John Pridden, one of the Vicars Choral, on the subject of the appropriation of the fees received for viewing the interior of the Abbey, it was strongly contended, and not refuted, that under the very Letters Patent (May 21, Anno 2d Eliz.) on which alone the Dean and Chapter found all their rights, privileges, and claims, the Choir, and all other persons, holding offices in that Collegiate Church, were entitled to a par ticipation of those privileges. It was also asserted, that the ChOir possessed certain innate rights, beyond those al lowed by the Grace of the Dean and Chapter. Those who are accustomed to pass through the cloisters of this Cathedral, cannot but have observed, that not only those who held benefice, - but even those who held the offices of cooks, porters, and other places, attached to the establisliniet, were uniformly allowed to be buried there. _ _ . Under the alleged, but it is believed incorrect, reason of there being want of room, not only many officers of the Church have of late been refused this right or indulgence, but others, unless they hold very 'high rank in Society, are not allowed to be interred there, although the fees have been greatly enhanced. In two recent cases, that of the sacrist, and also the ver ger, both of whom had been upwards of fifty years officers of the Church—and the former of which had devoted his whole time to the interests of the Dean and Chapter—not even the Knell was allowed to be tolled to his memory, and the latter was only permitted to be interred in what is consi dered the illnamen's ground. In a more recent instance, that of the late Mr. Sale, who having been so long a member of the choir, and who, it is insisted was under the Letters Patent of Queen Eliza beth, as legally intitled as the Dean himself, to the privi lege of being interred in that . Cathedral Church, the appli cation was refused except under conditions as degrading and indelicate as they were uncharitable, and consequently not accepted. The Manner, ,the delay, and the proceed ings attendant upon this claim or application as contrasted with the noble, liberal, and benevolent conduct of those who superintend matters, at St. Paul's Cathedral, will form the subject of a subsequent communication. It has been truly stated, by perhaps the greatest philosopher, aswell as one of the most able writers of the present day—that to have the mind occupied with little blemishes, even when they may be as sociated with real and great excellence is by no means an evidence of superior, intellectual, or moral acuteness, or refinement; but that it rather indicates a contracted un derstanding, and a vitiated taste. . Exeter. NOT OF THE CHOIR. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 20 , CONST V. • HARRIS. Mr. LOWNDES applied to the Lord chancellor, requesting he would give judgment in this case, which had stood over for some time, and which his Lordship promised to do. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Noy. 20. WARREN V. WOOD, PITCHER, AND . OTHERS. The VICE-CHANCELLOR, finding that the circum stances of this case were precisely similar to those upon which the Lord Chancellor had lately granted an application of the same sort, granted the injunc tion now prayed for. . COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 20. The COURT was occupied the greater part of the day with cases in the special paper, and wi th demur rers on points of pleading, possessing interest no ex cept to the parties concerned. CRIMINAL INFORMATION. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against Sir Robert Seppings and Richard James Cutbush, at the instance of Charles Phillips, a Captain in the Royal Navy. The libel of which Captain Phillips complained was published in the Maidstone Gazette, in a letter signed by Sir Robert Seppings. Application was made, on its first ap pearance, to Sir R. Seppings, to know whether he was the author of the letter which bore his signature, but he declined to give any answer to it, and re- ferred the writer to his attorney. On second thoughts, however, Sir R. Seppings admitted the letter to be his composition. Richard James Cut bush was the printer of the Maidstone Gazette, and was made a party to the rule, because he had, in the first instance, refused to give up the author of the letter. Perhaps, when the rule was made absolute, Cutbush might be left out of it. It appeared, from the letter itself, that Sir R. Seppings was sending an answer to an anonymous letter previously printed in the Maidstone Gazette, and of which, for some cause or other, he suspected Capt. Phillips to be the author. Cap tain Phillips, was a gentleman of great respectability, residing at the village of Upnor, in the neighbour hood of Chatham. He stated in his affidavits, that lA. ..7 C._ ./.7777 - __ ..- - Y. . .

AN INJUNCTION has this—Day been granted by the LORD CHANCELLOR to re strain G. LAMERTE from Making or Selling any Black ing with Labels in imitation of the genuine WAlt- REN'S BLACKING, which he has been in the habit of doing by using the fictitious Name of "Jonathan Warren," and otherwise imitating the genuine Labels of ROBERT WARREN, 30, STAANI). • It is, therefore, strongly recommended, that those Shop• keepers, or others, who have any of the Counterfeit Black. ing, as above described, do return it .to the parties from whom they received it, which they are justified in doing. By neglecting this Notice, they will be liable to the heavy Expences and Penalties of,a Snit in Chancery, which will be immediately commenced against them.

Robert . •. Seppings was replying ; that he knew nothing os and had not had any thing whattcivet to do either with its composition or its publication: Sir Robert Seppings, in his letter, had made use of certain ex pressions, which, in the ?pinion of many naval offi cers, applied to Captain Phillips exclusively; and though the circumstances stated in the letter were .not true in themselves, they alluded to facts which showed that the expressions used wire intended to apply to Captain Phillips, and to him alone. Capt. Phillips stated in his affidavits tha't he was acquaint ed with Sir R. Seppings; that he had never had any difference with Sir R. Seppings, and that he therefore could not conceive why Sir R. Seppings considered him to be the author of the atta ti:ade upon him. in the Maidstone Gazette. He (the Attorney-General) had likewise affidavits from seve ral persons, who stated their belief that the libel applied to Captain Phillips, and it was upon these grounds that he now made his application to the Court. Lord TENTEItDEN—Take a rule to show cause. EARL DUDLEY AND IVARD V. ROBINS. This was an action brought U 1 the noble plaintiff, :o recover of the defendant, an auctioneer, living in Warwick-street, Golden-square, the sum of 6,060/., paid to him as a deposit on an estate which his Lord ship had an-reed:to purchase. The case was tried before Lord' Tenterden at the last sittings, and the plaintiff was nonstsited, on the ground that the agree ment on which the action was brought had not been drawn up on a proper stamp.. On u former day the Attorney-General had ob tained a rule to show cause why the verdict for thC defendant should - not be set Mid; and a new trial granted. The case came on for argument this day, and it appeared from the statements on both sides, that on the trial the nonsult had been obtained by a law stationer, who was a witness kir the defence, sttmar ing that the number of folios contained in the agre67 ment were snore than the stamp on the agreement covered. Since the trial the folios had been counted, and it ,turned out that the defendant, in order to make out that the folios were more in number than the stamp on the agreement could legally cover, had converted all the figures into words, and had unne cessarily interpolated no less than 200 " ands" into it. Whenever it was requisite to enumerate so many acres, roods, perches, &c., they had always been enumerated as so many acres and so many roods, and so many perches, &c. &c. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in moving that the rule . be made absolute, felt himself bound to state that Mr. Robins was only the nominal defendant in this action, and that he had no interest whatever in the result of the present suit. The money in ques tion had long since been paid over to the vender's attorney. In conclusion, he moved that his rule should be made absolute with costs.—Rule made absolute. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 20. (Sittings in Banco.) HANCOCK V. HODSON AND OTHERS. In this action the plaintiff sought to recover the value of several Cornish mines, which they had sold to the defendants, who are the directors of the Goo nearl _Mining Company. The case came on for trial at Guildhall, before Mr. Justice Gaselee, but before the facts were investigated, an objection was taken by the defendant .to the admissibility in evi dence of the deed by which the mines were con veyed to them, on the ground that it contained a greater number of words than the stamp on - which it was drawn would allow. The words having been counted, and found to exceed the prescribed number by 44, the plaintiff was nonsuited. On a former day in this term, Me. Sergeant Wilde obtained a rule to show cause why that nonsuit should not be set aside, and a new trial granted, on the ground of surprise at the objection Which had caused the nousuit, the defendants' attornies having prepared the deed. Mr. Sergeant TADDY, Mr. Sergeant SPANKIE, and Mr. Sergeant JONES, now appeared to show cause against the rule. The COURT having heard the argument, were of opinion that the rule should be made absolute, upon payment of costs.—Rule made absolute. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 20. BLOXAM V. TURTON, HART. This was a demurrer to a bill filed by the plaintiff against the defendant, Sir Thomas Turton, Bart., for the discovery of evidence in aid of an action in stituted under . the following circumstances :—The bill charged that the defendant was a director of a Joint-stock Company, formed for the purpose of trading to Egypt; and that after A certain number of shares had been issued by them, the defendant was present as Chairman of a Meeting of the Com pany, at which - a resolution was adopted, by which it was agreed, that as the object of the formation of the Company had failed, it should be dissolved. By the, terms of the deed, in order to indemnify the public against any supposed injury which they might sustain by the purchase of shares of a,company which might be put an end to at any time by the directors, it was provided that the de posits made on such shares should be put into the bank for the formation of a fund to buy up all the shares which should be then in the market, in the event of the directors deciding on the diiJolution of the company. If that fund should prove insuffi cient, then the directors were to contribute from their own private funds to make up the deficiency; but on no account were they to bring shares into the market after the dissolution of the company had taken place. The bill further charged, that the defendant, after having presided as Chairman at the meeting at which the dissolution was agreed upon, employed a person named Joseph to dispose of 25 shares of his, which he sold to the plaintiff, who afterwards brought his action for money had and received by the defendant to his use, for the re covery of 175/., the sum paid upon those 25 shares. But not being provided with sufficient legal proof of the above facts, the plaintiff filed this bill for the discovery of evidence, to which the defendant de murred. _ _ Messrs. FONBLANQUE and BEAMES, in support of the demurrer, contended that the bill could not be sustained, insomuch as it charged the defendant with conduct which, if lie had been guilty of it, would subject him to a criminal prosecution, and therefore he was not bound to furnish evidence in support of such charges. Messrs. TINNED and BRODRICK, in support of the bill, argued that the facts charged, although they amounted, to what was called a civil fraud, did not constitute a criminal fraud. The Learned Counsel besought the Court not to exclude the plaintiff from the only means by which he was enabled to proceed against the defendant, and thus enable the latter to pocket the fruits of his civil fraud. After Mr. FONBLANQUE had been heard in reply, The COURT stated that they would take time to consider the case. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 20. John Marsh, a respectably dressed young man, formerly of Cleve, near Cheltenham, student in medicine, was opposed by Mr. D. PoLLOCK, on be half of Wm. Rawlings, Esq., the plaintiff in an action against the insolvent for criminal conversation with his wife. _ _ Mr. POLLOCK commenced by referring the Court to the statement made in the schedule, explanatory of the complainant's claim, by which it appeared that the damages assessed utidti a writ of iNitiry wee 7001., costs 38/. is., the insolvent having let jlidg meat go by default. In, order to prove these facts, Mr. E. T. Whitaker the arm to Mr. Reed, of Cheltenham, put in the allocutor, which Mr. Cooke, the insolvent's counsel, submitted was insufficient, the original record ought to be produced. Mr. POLLOCK then put' the required document in and said, that it, together with the statement in the schedule, would establish his case. Mr. Cooxr—l-object, on the ground that these do not constitute evidence sufficient to warrant my Learned Friend to address the Court upon the merits -4 the case. PomocK.—Because my Learned Friend have an imperfect case in one respect, I -cs the Court upon other points tEclaZ lo., :er producedthe office copy of suppt, am not to mow n. :cord, and found to cor- Mr. Henry -ot from the Treasury office, the judgment, wlviefe p, Iy h : COOKE, ad collated with' the respond. miMttera.tWhahtitthakeecra,utoseaofqatuetsiotinolltall7 in Glot: but that the venue was laid i i Middlesex. The insolvent was prevented; from defending the action, in consequence of a conversation he had with the plaintiff's attorney, who said, that if he allowed! judgment to go by default, the damage , should he merely nominal. Mr. POLLOCK contended that what N'tr.. Reed (the plaintiff's solicitor) had said to an adreoe party ought not to be given in evidence : , gainst the plain -tiff, unless it was proved that the conversation t. ook place by his direction, or with his privity. Mr. COOKE had a right to evamine the insolvent as to the reason why he did not defend the action. His client had sworn that he vas influenced by Mr. Reed to act as he had done. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER was of opinion than the insolvent should not be questioned on this point at present. Mr. PoLLocx apprehended that, argument in - - this. case was unnecessary as to he validity of the:Judg ment, he (Mr. Pollock) being rectu.s curia with ve spect to Mr. Rawlings, at whose suit the insolvent was in custody and charged in execution. In cases like the present, he (Mr. Pollock) believed the Court was in the habit of taking tffe verdict as conektsive against an insolvent, and the damages assigned wa o a guide as to the result—i. e. the judgment of tIK? Court under the 49th section of the Act of Puha-. meat ; and the Court would in this case doubtless take judicial notice of the documents, the same as if the issue had been tried before a Court and Jury: 7 - 1 1', 1 :te case appeared to him (Mr. Pollock) a very gr i e ,,ous and aggravated one, both against morals and proPriety, and lie apprehended. that the justice o f i t wou i L l not be met unless the insolvent was re ' mended for a considerable period under the clause of the Act he' had before cited. Mr. COOKE ITIHI's pd h; at great ries ln egtthat nh.—Hio defen s Learned ce Friend bad expressed c su ry had been made to this ,auction before the SherifCs Jury, - and he (Mr. Cookt,.? would have been sur prised, too, when he looked at: . the heavy damages, bad it not been for -what ha,'. l dropped from the insolvent, whO had, it appeared, co „nided to the pro mise made by Mr. Reed, the attoiney, who had thereby tied him :hands and legs. Tbe conduct of Mr. Reed, the plaintiff's attorney, was .-natural—he felt a tender regard for his client's character : hence it was that he laid the venue at a distance from where the parties were known, and it had been sworn that he (Mr: seed) had said, that if the insolvent was quiescent, the damages should be nominal ; hence it was that his client was lulled into security and inac tivity. The Learned Counsel proceeded to com plain that the insolvent had been limited by the Court and almost prohiOted from offering any thing in mitigation. He concluded by imploring the Court not to measure its judgment by the amount of Commissioner damages. The CIIIEF COMMISSIONER, in pronouncing the . judgment of the Court , should, in a case of this de scription, proceed upon the principle laid down by one of his learned colleagues (Air Law). That gentleman had a case lf a similar de scription before him on the sth March, in the per son of George Thornwall (as we underst.ood), when be held that in cases of seduction of the , olaintiff's daughter, breach of promise of marriage, ,criminal conversation, or other malicious injury, the Court ought to regulate its judgment by the amounst, of damages returned by the verdict; and he (the CL'ief Commissioner) thought this a right view of the case'- He should proceed to pass judgment upon a view of the damages; and if he was thought wrong, he should be glad for the party aggrieved to bring the matter before the Court on a future day. Under all the circumstances of the case, without entering into its merits, the judgment of. the Court' was-- "That the insolvent should not be discharged from custody, or receive any benefit or protection under the Act, until he had been in custody for the period of 12 calendar months from the date of his petition, at the suit of Mr. Rawlings; and that he be con fined within the walls of the prison, and not with in the rules and liberties thereof." The insolvent was about to reply, but was pre vented by the interposition of the Court. IN THE MATTER OF SIR T. S. cllADirtmrs, BART. On Thursday last Mr. ColoxE moved the Court, that the discharge of the Baronet should issue forth with, whereby he might be liberated from llchester gaol, in which place he has long been confined on maw process; but the application was not complied with, owing to a discrepancy in one of the affida vits. Mr. Cooke now moved upon an amended de pOsition, and the Court, after a few observations: acceded to the prayer of the application, and the discharge was ordered to is§ue instanter. INFANTICIDE PREVENTED.—Rebecca To lan, a good-looking young woman, from Carri gans,ii I i Id, in the county of Donega l, came to live with Mr. James Hammett , o f Derr y , as a ser vant, in August last. Till Sa turda y ni g ht last, about eight o'clock, she attended to her business occupying Mrs. ier h mind, an- whether or no t as usual, when she complained o f a p ain, which, for the first time, excited suspicion in Mrs. in timating Hammettresolved dg to ot thatoretrain he s r h N e ‘, as mett, however, left her to arrange matters in the kitchen, as usual for the night , and, without h t .w a i it)NtNo'a sascertain pregnant. her suspicion was well founded. She got a neighbour, a Mrs. Farren, to sit up with her. About twelve they heard a cry, as if from a new-born infant, and rushing down • stairs disco vered symptoms which left the truth no longer equivocal. Rebecca had been in the yard, and was returning in. They asked her what sh e had done with the child ? she feigned ignorance as to the import of their question, when a feeble cry again struck their ears. They rushed out, forc ing the girl to accompany them, when she con fessed that she had just become a mother, and that to conceal her shame she had been tempted to throw her infant into the privy. They obliged her to drag it out (it was alive), bring it into the kitchen, and wash it. Providentially the only injuries it had sustained were a sli g ht scratch above the brow, and a contusion on the side, evident from a discolouration. Mrs. Hammett instantly sent for a midwife to take care of the mother and child, else, from the situation in ,vhich they were, death must have ensued before inorning, and Dr. Alexander was afterwards called in, under whose unremitting attention both are Going well. The infant is a fine male child, and themother is suckling it with the greatest ap prent affection. She was quite insensible till mid-day on Sunday, .when she inquired; " what child is that ?" referring to her infant. On be ing informed what she had attempted, heranguish was extreme.—Cork Constitution.
