,AW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) served if COURT OF CHANCERY. HALL V. COOKE AND CLARKE. towmlr. SHADWELL applied for a special injunction his case. It appeared by the statements in the miff 's bill, which was supported .by affidavit, Keepet he had invented a process for improving any Duke ,d of lace, net, or any description of manufactured itly spokeids, the fabric of which was composed of in irt relatinotices and holes made from thread or yarn, by rwe knouns of the combustion of inflammable gas. The intiff in 1818, obtained- his -_Majesty's Letters tent for this invention; as. to the validity of which re could be no doubt, the plaintiff having some le acro brought an action in the Court of King's Ciock • nch for an infringement of it, upon which a t Y' ° P e ne t dict was obtained for the plaintiff. In the begin done we n, to thig of the last month, the plaintiff was informed [wen an ,it a person of the name of Nathan Cooke, who i d s , 86 83 been a servant of the plaintiff's, had, in con- Funds ar;.ctiOn with Wm. Clarke, been making lace pre misan artily with the same process as that invented by the Braziliati,:intiff. It turned out upon inquiry, that the lace ivy ; lieirmanufactured was carried to a house in Notting awed d isln. It appeared upon the affidavit of William Fresh "Ilielton, that, on the 11th of June, he, in company is, n aothers, went to the house, and found i n a n period per roo m , the windows of which were white ished, or covered with white paper, the two de- Klants using the identical process, the benefit of Lich vi as only in the plaintiff. SHADWELL then read the affidavits support these facts; upon which Account 54 5 pm, s, 61 2 I, 62i ex. div. Llis.

The re was tried some time ago, before Lord Ten rden, at Guildhall, and the plaintiff recovered a ...rdict, with 1,0001. damages. A rule was obtained 5 15 y the defendant in the course of the last term, 325 68 1alling on the plaintiff to show cause why the _ trerdict s h ou ld • not be set aside and a new trial ;ranted, on the ground of excessive damages having teen awarded. Lord TENTERDEN read his report of the trial, from which it appeared that in April, 1826, the plaintiff and his f am ily resided . near Berkeley Castle. On the last day of April, as ,nvigorata, s to johirne p l a in t i ff 's , wife and her sister were taking a on of aalk, they passed 'Colonel Berkeley, who smiled i frOm thAS he 'was going along. Mrs. Dauncey, pointing to the Greatlim, told her sister, he was Colonel Berkeley. On Id in thiihe 2d of May the two sisters were again taking a the besttealk near Colonel Berkeley's residence, and on pas of WOO n lMing a gate, Colonel Berkeley came up to them, and r ge e nera l e tsked if t h ey s h ould like to see the castle. 9Mrs. year;wer . sould, and h e accor di ng l y opene d t h e teen , ' an u s t; aid she w te, and politely conducted th em to t h e gar d en , theelosehere they met another gentleman named Captain esent oneßammond.

He maintained that as the lost a wile, on whom, previous to her unfortunate connection with the defendant, no imputation could be cast, and the mother of his children, it was of no consequence to him whether it was by a long, elaborate system of seduction, or by a sudden advantage taken by a person well acquainted with the weakness of the fe male character. It was clear, however, that when once she had got within the precincts of Berkeley Castle, she was afterwards under the spell of the enchanter, at all times ready to obey his nod. It was argued on the other side, that as Mr. Hughes, the assignee o f t h e plaintiff, was on the Jury, the verdict ought to be set aside, on the ground of his being interested. The Attorney-General, however, had affidavits to show that Mr. Hughes was but a small creditor, and that his interests would be very little affected whether the verdict should be small or large. tied by dmiralty, riag, and Irniralt) l his car , 1 of their course of Mr. GURNEY, the COMMON SERGEANT, an d m r , CHITTY folloWed on the same side.

The past week's supplies were tolerably good of most kinds of English Grain and Flour, and the arrival of Fo reign Oats was unusually large, 51,693 quarters of which came from Riga. This morning the fresh supplies of Grain from all parts of England are small, and foreign vessels continue to come in, chiefly laden with Oats. We have had some seasonable rains here, and this morning is very wet, which is considered very genial weather for the coming crops. There is so little superfine Wheat here, that the prices of such remain as last reported for select parcels only, the general runs are quoted Is. to 2s. per quar ter lower than this day se'nnight. In consequence of the Bonded Corn being expected to come into the market on Friday next, the prices of Barley have declined 55., Beans 25., and Pease 2s._per quarter from the terms of this se'nnight. The extraordinary supply of Foreign Oats hat rendered this trade very dull, and being nearly all of a this: description, such have declined in value 2s. per quartet from the quotations of last Monday, while stout sweet par cels remain nearly as last quoted. The Flour trade is ver \ dull, but the top price is unaltered. PRICES OH BOARD OF SHIP. Wheat, Red (old) —a. —s. Beans, Small (new)...535. 575. White (old) —s. • . (old) .... —s. —s.

During the present week the sales of Grain and Flour have been exceedingly light, the purchasers generally being inclined to wait the result of the release of Foreign Grain and Flour from bond, under an idea of going into stock at lower prices. However, the present average of Wheat will not admit of any large quantity of Foreign to be thrown on the market with profit to the bonder, as the duty will run from 225. to 245. per quarter. The quantity of Spring Corn is so exceedingly small that it will be scarcely felt in the country generally; but the nearer ap proach to harvest, which at present avers well for a crop, will have some effect in reducing the prices. The sales of Wheat to-day were very limited : English is 3d. to 4d.' and Irish full 6d. per 701bs. cheaper than last week; some small parcels of Foreign were held at 9s. to 9s. 6d.; but I have not heard of any sales, except of Canadian, which fetched 6d. per bushel less to-day than at Liverpool last week. Grinding Barley is Id. to 2d. lower, and Oats could not be moved unless the holders would submit to a decline of ld. to lid. per bushel. Boiling Pease are not inquired for, nor is the demand for Beans so brisk as it was a few weeks ago. Fine Malt is in moderate request at the currency subjoined ; but Flour and Oatmeal are dull sale at a further decline of Is. per load. The con sumers' stock being low, more business must be done in a week or two. Customary Bushel. Wheat (701 b.) s. d. to s. d.

On Thursday last the Right ,Worshipful the Mayor of Newcastle; ARCIIIBAD REED, Esq. gave a grand dinner at the Mansion-House, in that. town, to the Members of the Common Council—Lieut.-Colonel Campbell and the Officers of the Tyne Yeomanry Hussars, and - other friends —in all about 60 gentlemen. •After several of the usual routine toats bad been drank, and imniediately after the health of his Majesty's Ministers, the Mayor rose and ex pressed himself nearly as follows :--" Mr. Sheriff (the Vice-President) and Gentlemen--Xpon this occasion, 1 have peculiar satisfaction in rising to propose a toast which, I am persuaded, will have your unanimous approbation, and he drank, as it deserves, in a bumper, and with feel- ings of enthusiasm. In political questions, Gentlemen, we know that sometimes, the views of the greatest statesmen conflict with the wishes and feelings of the public. It has, perhaps, been so on a late important occasion in Par liament, which led to the abandonment of the Corn Bill. But, Gentlemen, it is highly pleasing to observe, from the candid explanation of his Grace, the Duke of Wellington, within these few days, that that distinguished Nobleman has shown himself most anxious to uphold and consult the best interests of the country ; that' if he had before fallen into a mistake, with regard to the Letter of the President of the Board of Trade,• it was a mistake into which others had fallen also. But as his Grace had since given his un qualified support to the Ministers' New Corn Bill (a mea sure apparently highly satisfactory to the country), it was most manifest that his Grace's disposition was sincere and honest in doing all he could to serve his country in Council. How pre-eminently that illustrious individual (the Duke of Wellington) had served his country, and the whole of Europe, in the field, he (the Mayor) would not then tres pass on the company by, detailing.—(Very great ap plause.)—Gentlemen, under existing circumstances, I have thought it necessary to address to you these few few words ; because I have the greatest pleasure in informing you, that here, in the North, we are shortly to have the happiness of beholding one of the greatest men which this or any other country ever produced.—(Great applause.)—ln the first week of September, the Duke of Wellington is ex pected at Wynyard, the seat of the Marquis of London derry. And feeling as I do, and as, I am sure, all who hear me feel, I look forward, confidently, to the support of all my townsmen on the approaching occasion, that we m ay receive the Noble Duke in a manner worthy his e xalted rank and transcendent merits. I conclude, Gentlemen, by proposing the health of his Grace, the Duke of Wellington, with three times three. The toast was drunk with enthusiasm. The next toast was Lieut-Colonel Canipbell, and the Officers of the Tyne Hussars► Lieut.-Colonel Campbell rose, and expressed his acknowledgements foe the honour done him and the ( Aileen of his corps. Upon the health of the Vicar of Newcastle, and the Clergy of the town being given, the Rev. the Vicar rose, and in neat terms, returned thanks for the honour conferred upon him and the Clergy of New castle. The Rev. Gentleman concluded by proposing the Mayor and Corporation, in a bumper. The Mayor return ed thanks. The next toast was, the Sheriff of Newcastle (Alfred Hall, Esq., the Vice-President) a gentleman, as the worthy chairman justly observed, every way deserving of their most favoured notice, for the very liberal and hand some manner in which every thing connected with his official duties was transacted.—(Applause.) The Sheriff rose and made his acknowledgments in neat and apprOpriate terms for the honour conferred upon him. The health of the Town Clerk followed next, upon which that worthy officer, (Mr. John Clayton) rose, and expressed, in his usual felicitous manner, the sense he entertained of the honour that had just been done him. After several other toasts, amongst which were the Duke of Northumberland, the Bishop of Durham, the Members for Newcastle, &c. the Mayor gave the Liberty of the Press.—. Mr. Mitchell, proprietor of the Tyne Mercury, rose to return thanks, though his acknowledgments were brief, and rather confined to a review of the liberal sentiments which characterise the present chief magistrate of New castle, a gentleman who, he observed, was as kind. in his hospitalities to his friends, .as he was ardent in his endea vours to advance the welfare of the town, under every possible circumstance.—The Sheriff of Newcastle gave, as a toast, "The Proprietors of the Sux Newspaper, a jour nal of great merit, and which bad latterly made unprece dented efforts in publishing the interesting proceedings of Parliament, &c."—Mr. Grieveson rose, and expressed him self nearly as follows: " Gentlemen—Connected as I have been, for some time, With the Proprietors of the SUN Newspaper, whose healths have been so handsomely pro posed by the worthy Vice-President, I can only say, it shall be my duty to report to these gentlemen the high com plinient that has just been paid them. lam sure they will be proud of it ; not because it is personal to them selves, but because they will consider it as I do, the ho mage of an enlightened body of gentlemen towards them, for their unparalleled endeavours in diffusing important political intelligence with the utmost practical celerity." —(Applause.)—At intervals several excellent songs were sung; the " rosy wine" circulated briskly ; and, upon the whole, it may be safely averred, there has seldom been a more joyous evening spent at the Mansion-house in New castle, celebrated as 'that residence is for liberal enter :ainment, than upon the evening here described.

' MAGAZINR DAY. NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE. Mr. Campbell's letter to the Students of Glas sow, on the course necessary to be.: adopted for attaining proficiency in literature, and in which he speaks incidentally of the powers and versa tility of the Greek mind, is of course the chief object of attraction in. the present Number of this Magazine. If there be any one thing which Campbell does better than another, it is his occa sional delightful little criticisms on Greek lite rature. He seems—indeed we all know that he is—thoroughly imbued with a love (which. im plies a knowledge) of his subject, and when he comes to speak of the Poets, Homer in parti-, cular,. he does it with all the. fire and eloquence of a kindred genius. There is nothing remark able in this : for the Greek mind, no matter to, what department of thought it devoted itself, was the most extraordinary that the world ever yet saw. Its language, too, was the very soul of Music ; copious, graceful, and ener getic ; whether as evinced in the flexible sweetness of the lonic, the grave majesty of the Doric, or the correct simplicity of the Attic dialect. It must necessarily, therefore, warm the feelings and elevate the fancy of whoever attempts to dissert on it. We shah hope to see more of Mr. Campbell's observations on this prolific subject ; but only hope that he will not again (as we have a faint recollection of his having done before), set Euripides above the all but perfect Sophocles. The " Dominican'. is a very impressive insidious tale, and one whose object cannot possibly be mistaken : it is to throw an indirect slur on Catholicism, which need no additional enemies, and the abuse of which flthough, perhaps, not unmerited) is " weary , at, stale, and unprofitable." " Tales of Indian Life," is a good Review—we can guess tht gifted mind from which it proceeds—of Chateau. briand's quack tale of the " Natchez," and Cooper's vigorous American Narratives. We are glad to find that the Reviewer does justice to the fine conception and execution of old " Nato Bumpo "—the most convincing of realities. " Daughters to Introduce," is a lively sketch b\ Horace Smith, from which we give the following diverting extract. Even topography is not with out its jealousies. On entering the central part of Portman-square, we en countered a decent-looking young man coming forth fron the iron gate, who nodded familiarly to the girls, bu whom they honoured in return with a more distant salu tation. " Who is that ?" said I. " Oh! only young Eg gars."—" And pray, who may young Eggars he ? " Oh we have nothing particular to say against him, except a to where he lives." Indeed ! and pray what has his resi dente done to offend you?" " Red-Lion-square ! ejacti calated AMelia, with a look of horror. " I understan , the case," said I ; " Red Lion-square might assimilate wit' Clapton, but it won't do with Baker-street." I was gla4: to find the family such able proficients in the science o cutting. The fact is, that the streets and squares of Lou .don are remarkably nice as to whom they allow to corn, near them. No inviting home to supper the devil knows who, like Dou Giovanni in the Italian Opera. Grosvenor square dubs Portman-square the suburbs; and accordingly slights " all which it inherit." Portman turns up it• nose at Cavendish, and CaVendish revenges itself upoi Soho. Soho, notwithstanding its dingy antiquity, hold, its head 'above Russell. Russell slights Bedford ; who, ii return won't speak to Bloomsbury. Bloomsbury hold: itself immeasurably superior to Red-Lion; whose Cal ) consolation, in return, is to call itself the West-end of th. Town, and to dub the inhabitants of Ely-place .‘ Cit, people." Neither does the conflict end here. In the Cit the Friars are, notwithstanding their holy brotherhood, a state of continued hostility. Black-friars won't COMMUCIi with White; White-friars undervalues Austin-friars; and Austin-friars looks upon Crutched-friars as the loWest deei of low-life. In what a woeful dilemma all these pool streets and squares would be, in the event of an earthquake I vztily believe that the cheek-by-jowl consequence. 0. such a catastrophe would more annoy them than tie . , dange , of dissolution. From all this episode I ' infer, that th Willoughby SCraggses could not ty . expected to notit . . young Eggars, until he had chap . d h i s lodgings. BLACKIV I ../OD'S MAGAZINE: The preseri Number is more distinguished for stivrig than light writing ; but, bating it, bigotry, deserves a respectful notice. From tht very elaborate article on " the Shipping Inte rest," we altogether dissent ; it is, however, energetic, even when most in the wrong, after tin fashion of Mr. Cobbett, who is never in so great 2. passion as when he has a bad cause to advocate. The " Real State of Ireland" is a clever and exag gerated piece of burlesque, and must be consi dered as such ; the " Chapter on Church-yards': is pretty ; " Two Passages in the Life of Wil Liam M'Gee," unintelligible to our southern understandings; and the "Subaltern in America,' a fine, spirited, correct, and dramatic sketch. The Noctes, too, are admirable ; Christopher there takes occasion to say that he shall be Lord Rector of Glasgow next year ; nothing mon.. likely, he is more a man of the world than Lora Campbell, and twice as hearty a tippler—two I I very important qualities (judging at least from the late symposiums) for him who aspires to that important office. We are happy to find that Glasgow is improving in intellect ; it takes in a great many' " SUNS, " and has discarded a pro digious quantity of " Couriers," striking proofs of the " March of Mind." On the whole, the present number of Blackwood, though not equal to the last (which was encored, that is to say consisted of two numbers) is a very judicious and amusing one. We give the following " Sonnet by Delta" as a specimen of its poetry : GLOAMING. There is a beauty in the grey twilight, Which minds unmusical can never know, A holy q uietude, that yields to woe A pulseless pleasure, fraught with pure delight The aspect of the mountains huge, that brave And bear upon their breasts the rolling storms ; An d the soft twinkling of the stars, that pave Heaven's highway with their bright and burning forms ; The rustle of the dark boughs overhead ;. The murmurs of the torrent far away ; The last notes of the blackbird * and the bay Of sullen watch-dog, from the far farm-stead-- All waken thought of Being's early day, Loves quenclVd 3 hopes past, friends lost, and pleasures Red. THE MONTHLY IkIAGAZ/NE. This is by far the best Number we have yet seen, whether we look to its useful information, vigorous, without ornament, or its varied and amusing style of entertainment. Mr. Hazlitt is, we perceive, among the contributors, and in an essay, entitled « On Reading New Books," puts forth many striking paradoxes. He is a spirited and impressive writer, and could he but divest himself of a certain slovenly style ; as well as of a political cast of mind (now thank God out of date) which has formed itself, and, we fear, incurably, on the Godwins, Holerofts, Condorcets, &c., of a revolutionary period, he would be one of the very first writers of his day. In his pre sent essay, he gives a curious anecdote of an evening spent with the well-known Mr. Taylor, ihead. H e n <, the Platonic philosopher," who translated the old Greek Rhetoricians for the late Duke of Norfo lk ; and while so engaged at Arundel : Castle, was nearly frightened out of his' wits by the ghos t of Queen Maude. This gentleman, we believe, is the only remaining member of that nob le school, i w s 11 , ieh perhaps,ackn o t w h l e e dfigresdt Creel: Johis on e Europe, can speak and write the language almost with beat Dr. P arr th ree the fluency of English, and s chol ar airts times on his ,favourite - topic of verbal criti cism. But his mina hag no di g estive power; the aliment infused into it is poured forth in the Same crude raw state in which it entered, and re- quires judgment to dissolve, recompose, and form it into healthy chyle. But notwithstanding this defect, Mr. Taylor's classical attainments are extraordinary, and we would sooner hear him quote, in his fine sonorous manner, wholesale passages from his favourite " Plato," than see Kean, in his best manner, go through the third act of " Othello." " Whitsun Eve," a village sketch, by Miss Mitford, is in that lady's happiest and most rustic manner.—Exempli gratin WHITSUN-EVE. The pride of my heart and the delight of my eyes is my garden.. Our house, which is in dimensions very much like a bird-cage, and might, with almost equal convenience, be laid on a shelf, or hung up in a tree, would be utterly unbearable in warm weather, were it not that we have a retreat out of doors—and a very pleasant retreat it is. . To make my readers fully comprehend it, I must describe our whole territories. Fancy a small plot of ground, with a pretty low irregu lar cottage at one end; a large granary, divided from the dwelling by a little court running along one side ; and a long thatched shed open towards the garden, and supported by wooden pillars on the other. The bottom is bounded, half by an old wall, and half by an old paling, over which we see a pretty distance of woody hills. The house, gra nary, wall, and paling, are covered with vines, cherry trees, roses, honeysuckles, and jessamines, with great clus ters of tall hollyhocks running up between them ; a large . elder overhanging the little gate, and a magnificent bay tree, such a tree as shall scarcely be matched in these parts, breaking with its beautiful conical form the horizontal lines of the buildings. This is my garden ; and the long pillared' shed, the sort of rustic arcade which runs along one side, parted from the flower-beds by a row of rich gera niums, is our out-of-door drawing-room. I know nothing so pleasant as to sit there on a summer afternoon, with the western sun flickering through the great elder tree, and lighting up our gay parterres, where flowers and flowering shrubs are set as thick as grass in a field, a wilderness of blossom, interwoven, intertwined, wreathy, i -arlandy, profuse beyond all profusion, where we may guess that there is such a thing as mould, but never see it. I know nothing so pleasant as to sit in the shade of that dark bower, with the eye resting on that bright piece of colour, lighted so gloriously by the evening sun. now catching a glimpse of the little birds as they fiy rapidly in and out of their nests—for there are always two or three birds'-nests in the thick tapestry of cherry-trees, honeysuckles, and China roses, which cover our walls— now tracing the gay gambols of the common butterflies as they sport around the dahlias ; now watching that rarer moth, which the country people, fertile in pretty names., I call the bee-bird ;* that bird-like insect, which flutter s in the hottest days over the sweetest flowers, inser'Cing its long proboscis into the small tube of the jessamine, and horsning over the scarlet blossoms of the geranium, whose bright colour seems reflected on its own feathery breast ; that insect which seems so thoroughly a creature of the air, never at rest, always, even when feedi ng , se lf- po i se d and self-supported, and whose wings in their ceaseless mo tion have a sound so deep, so full, so lulling, so musical. Nothing so pleasant as to sit amid that mixture of the flower and the leaf, watching the bee-bird ! Nothing so pretty to look at as my garden ! It is quite a picture ; only unluckily it resembles a picture in more qualities than one—it is fit for nothing but to look at. One might as well think of walking in a bit of framed canvass. There are walks to' be sure—tiny paths of smooth gravel, by courtesy called such—but they are so overhung by roses and lilies, and such gay encroachers—so over-ran by con volvolus, and heart's-ease, and mignonette, and other sweet stragglers, that, except to edge through them occasionally, pcaSseSses for the purposes of planting, or .weeding, or watering, there might as well be no paths at all. Nobod) thinks of walking- in my garden.

Does not this Zoilus know, that both for posi tion anti expression they are the redeeming beauties of the picture ? Is he not aware that Sir Joshua Reynolds (who knew almost as much about painting as himself) recommend ed these very " carnivorous-looking pea-sons" as models of the highest excellence in painting ? We would advise this gentleman, when he next ventures on " the Fine Arts," to remember Dean Swift's admonition :—"Always," said that profound judge of human nature, " bear in mind, that in writing on any particular subject, it is necessary to know some little about the matter." The article headed " Notes of the Month," are lively and anecdotical, and include a good story of Liston, which we are sorry our limits prevent us from extracting. Sphinx ligustri, privet hawk-moth. LONDON MAGAZINE. The present Number of this periodical might safely be thrown into the Thames, without any fear of occasioning a conflagration. Indeed we think it would instantly sink, from that excessive heaviness which is said to be the peculiar property of Lord Londonderry's orations. It calls itself, we perceive, a Magazine, yet is chiefly filled with Reviews ; one of which, on " Ben Nazir," ma nifestly intended to be facetious, is as abortive 2. piece of splenetic stupidity as we ever remember to have seen. It is really quite surprising how much dullness the Reviewer has contrived to condense into one single page : he professes t o imitate Junius ; so he does in his ill-nature ; but the intellect, we fear, has evaporated in t'ne pro cess of:distillation " Non ex quov;.s ligno fit Mercurius." " Political Economy however is an article that migh t well redeem P: ven th e R ev i ew of " Ben Nazir : it display* much justness of observation, and even ve7atures to start new dogmas. " The Letter* c.rom a Travelling Artist, are curious, though without any particular claim to originality. Philosophy in Sport" is a well written Review of that able and popular little book ; and the article headed, " Ma gaziniana," a lively, readable, and entertP:m , in g Miscellany. On the whole the pre sent nutnller is decent ; but nothing mclice. MONTHLY REVIEW. This Number was sent to us so very late in the day, that we are un►.aole to do more than acknowledge the receipt o f it. I n a d a y or two, however, we may probably notice it more fully. The contents are promising. DREADFUL ACCIDENT A+ HIS MAJESTY'S the chief part of tly.. e PALACE.
