LOVE AND ROMANCE. - . . t'2" an , l of young nicn I.;:tween ogt:Lecn and twenty-four, fall victims to what they call love, than to any other particular class of disease—and more particularly in England and Ireland than in any other country on earth. This is from the force of early impressions peculiar to those countries, and of com paratively recent growth, the effect produced by a certain class of romance writers. These writers give an obliquity to the young mind which leads to destruction. Scarcely has a young girl laid down her Reading made Easy, when she becomes a subscriber to some trashy library, and the hours which, in the country, or in a land where education is un known, they would employ in jumpinc , about in the open air, are now consumed with intensity of' thought upon the maudlin miseries of some hapless heroine of romance, the abortion of a diseased brain. Her imitativeness, as Spurz heim would phrenologically observe, becomes developed, and she fixes on her favourite heroine, whom she apes in every thing—sighing for her sorrow, and moaning to be as miserable. She fixes immediately upon some figure of a man—some Edwin, or Edgar, or Ethelbert, which she thinks will harmonize with the horrors of the picture, and she then enjoys her tears and her tortures to her heart's satisfaction, Languor, inaction, late hours, late:ri sing, and incessant sighing, derange her digestion paleness, loss of appetite, and general debility follow ; the cause continues, the effects increase, and hectic fever puts an end to the romance. We have known a young Irish lady who read herself into this situation. She was, at the age of 13, as lively, as healthy, and as beautiful a little promise of womanhood as that country ever pro duced. When the Leadenhall-street of romancers crossed her way, an officer of a very different sort of troop be came her hero. She would "sit in her bower," (the se cond floor window), and gaze—and gaze upon his steed, his helmet, and his streaming black-haired crest, as he passed to mount guard, until she sobbed aloud in ecstacy of melan choly. She never spoke to this "knight," nor did she even seek to have an acquaintance—least, perhaps, that a formal proposal, a good leg of mutton dinner, and all the realities of domestic happiness might dissipate the sweet romantic misery she so much delighted in. A year passed over— " she pined in thought, and with a green and yellow melan choly," entered a convent (for that is the climax of romance), where she died in a few months.—Medical Adviser.

On Monday an inquest, which excited great interest, was held at the Grave Maurice public-house, Bromley, Mid dlesex, before Mr. W. Baker, Coroner, on the body , of Ellen Donovan, a child aged three years, whose death was occasioned by hydrophobia, caused by the bite of a mad dog. The case afforded a most lamentable instance of ig norance and superstition, the parents of the child believing in the vulgar error, that the deceased could be saved by giving it a portion of the dog's liver and heart, which it was actually compelled to swallow. James Atkins, a gardener, of No. 20, Calton-street, Poplar, stated, that about five weeks ago, a dog belonging to him broke loose from his chain, and bit the deceased. The animal had been previously carefully fastened up with the chain ; but the children, and particularly the Irish, were in the habit of teazing it. He missed the dog for some time, and a boy told him it had been seen loose. He met the father of the deceased, who complained that the dog had severely bitten his child, and requested him to destroy the animal, and he did so as soon as he re turned home. The dog had given no previous indica tions of being in a rabid state. He directed the mother of the child to take her to a surgeon's, and he subsequently paid the expenses of medical attendance. The mother ne glected to convey the deceased to the doctor until four days had elapsed. The child was bitten on the cheek. It was not a very bad bite, but it seemed as if the teeth of the animal had grazed the cheek, which had some blood on it. At the request of the father of the deceased he extracted the liver, heart, and part of the lights of the animal, and delivered them to him. A Juror asked the witness what he did that for ? . At kins said the father told him he meant to boil them, and give them to the child, as a remedy for the bite of the dog. The Coroner and Jury expressed their surprise and dis gust that such ignorance should prevail, and that any person should place credence in such nonsense. Margaret Donovan, the mother of the child, said she lived in Brandy Fields, Bromley. About the 29th of May last, the deceased was brought home in the evening, directly af ter she was bitten, and the blood flowed profusely from her cheek. The owner of the dog came in immediately after wards, and told her to take the child to a surgeon's, and he would pay the bill, but it was three or four days before she did so, as she did not think the case was so serious as it af terwards turned out. She rubbed some sweet oil on her child's face. The Coroner asked the witness if she had been foolish enough to give the child any portion of the animal. Witness—Several people told me if I could get a part of the liver and heart of the dog, boil it, and give it to her, it would be sure to cure her. Coroner—And did you do so ? Witness—ln conse quence of that, my husband appliel for and brought home a part of the liver and lights of the dog. I roasted it, and gave her a piece to eat. The Jury said that alone was enough to kill the child, if the dog had not been in a rabid state. The Coroner said, that notwithstanding the spread of intelligence among the poorer classes of the people, many still put faith in the vulgar error that the nostrum in ques tion was a cure for the bite of a mad dog. It was certainly lamentable that such gross ignorance should prevail in the 19th century, but there could be no doubt that the poor but misguided woman had given the child part of the entrails of the animal, believing that it would prove a cure, and not with any bad intent. The result would show how miserably she had been deceived, the child having fallen a victim to one of the most dreadful evils which could afflict the human race. He asked the mother how much she had given to the child. The witness said she roasted the liver and lights toge ther, and gave the child a bit about the size of the top of her finger. She ate it on the same night the dog was killed. When she called in the doctor the child's face had swollen, and was festering. She took her to Mr. Beale, a surgeon, whose assistant attended her. The deceased got better, and the wound healed, but she was never thoroughly well. She was feverish and sickly, and then got better and then worse again, she became violent, and would scream loudly. She frequently ran about and screamed, and if she attempted to chastise her, would scream more. It was such screaming as she bad never heard be fore. She afterwards got out and ran about. All this time, neither Mr. Beale nor Mr. Percival, the sur geons, attended her. About the 2d or 3d of this month the child was taken violently ill and very feverish, and she took her to Mr. Baker, of Bromley, the parish surgeon, before whom she screamed violently. She was affected in the throat with difficulty of breathing, and on water being offered to her, she seemed quite to avoid it, started back, and appeared in convulsions. The sight of the water frightened her more than anything else. Mr. Beale and Mr. Per cival saw her in that state, and she continued so till she died. She expired in great agony on Friday last. Wit ness had no doubt that the child had died from the bite of a mad dog. A Juror—Did the poor child refuse water ? The mo ther replied that she always refused drink whilst in a violent state. The Coroner and jury said the deceased must have suf fered dreadfully, and one gentleman observed that he would have sooner had all the dogs in England destroyed than he would have heard such a painful recital. Isaac Luck, a labourer, of No. 4, Bow-lane, stated that he saw the dog fly at the child and bite her. The animal seized hold of the deceased's cheek and shook her, biting her at the same time, and the blood flowed from the wound. The dog then ran towards home, and he went and took him to his master by placing a handkerchief round his neck. The animal knew him and offered no violence whatever to him. The animal was a middling-sized dog of the bull breed. He had had something the matter with the dog before. The jury said that the animal ought to have been se curely fastened, and the manner in which dogs in a rabid state were suffered to go about the streets, called loudly for the interference of the proper authorities. The Coroner said that dogs ought to be tied up, and not suffered to run about the public streets. There was a good deal of alarm felt about hydrophobia at the present time. The witness said he fastened the dog up securely in the morning. Mr. James Duff, of the Manor-house, Poplar, said the case was a strongly marked one of hydrophobia in its worst form. He saw the deceased with her face lacerated imme diately after she was bitten, and he observed the marks of the d og ' s t ee th. The animal: was destroyed immediately afterwards. He first saw the child in a rabid state about nine o'clock on Friday. He took some water and threw it in the child's face. The effects were that she quivered and shook violently. She also screamed and barked like a dog. At intervals the little sufferer howled like the howling of a dog. Along conversation ensued among the jury in cons& quence of its being alleged that great neglect had been ex hibited on the part of the medical men, who had not paid that attention to the case which its importance required. Mr. Duff, on being questioned, said he did not think that any blame could be attached to the medical gentlemen, who, on hearing that the child was afflicted with symptoms of hydrophobia, paid every attention to he r . He heard the owner of the dog say he would pay the doctor's bill, but the parents believing thoi k ilte ease was not so serious as it after- We now present THE SUN to our readers in the enlarged form which we promised at the beginning of the Session. The delay arose entirely from unavoid able circumstances which we could not contemplate, and the disappointment of the public cannot have been greater than our own. From the additional facilities which the increased size of the paper affords, together with new type and superior machinery, we hope to render THE SUN still more worthy of general support, for we appeal not to any party, but to the public at large. It is our intention, as opportunity permits, to devote a fair share of the paper to Literary and Scientific, as well as to other purposes ; but as " doings" are better than "sayings," we shall leave it to the public to judge THE SUN according to its future deserts.

The remedy should be always speedy. The Jury then returned a verdict—" That the deceased, Ellen Donovan, died of hydrophobia, caused by the bite of a mad dog, on the 29th of May last." The Coroner pointed out to the parents and their friends the folly of giving to a child, or any other person bitten by a dog in a rabid state, the heart and liver of the animal, and said he hoped such gross ignorance would not again come under his notice.

LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 17, 1834 The resignations in the Government have been at length filled up, and yesterday received his Majesty's approbation. Viscount MELBOURNE succeeds Earl GREY as Premier, Viscount ALTHORP resumes his former post of Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Leader in the House of Commons. The vacancy in the Home Department is filled up by Lord DuN CANNON, who goes to the House of Lords, as, by statute, only two Secretaries of State can sit in the Lower House. The elevation of his Lordship occa sions a vacancy for Nottingham, and it is probable that a new writ will be moved for this evening for that place. Who shall succed Lord DUNCANNON at the Woods and Forests is not yet, we believe, positively fixed. Various persons have been talked of at the club houses, and amongst them Lord MULGRAVE and Mr. TENNYSON. Lord MELBOURNE will announce in the House of Lords this evening, that a Commission is making out for the Treasury, and that Lord DUNCANNON has kissed hands to-day as Home Secretary. Some subor dinate changes or appointments 'may take place in a few days, but nothing further is decided on at present. We observe that several of our contemporaries have already taken alarm at the composition of the Cabinet, without waiting to learn on what principles it will be conducted, or rather, to see how far the policy of Earl GREY'S Administration will be pursued by his suc- cessors. What the motives of those papers may be for this alacrity in their opposition, it were idle to inquire ; but the public cannot fail to remember that some of them were but very . recently the loudest panegy rists—(and with justice)—of the late Adminis tration. That being the case, how comes it that the present Ministry, composed of nearly all the Members of Earl GREY'S Cabinet is treated so unceremoniously before it has had time to declare its adhesion to those liberal principles which had won such " golden opinions" for its predecessor ? Is one particular Act, such as the Poor Law Amendment Bill, enough to account for such general, such unmeasured hostility ? Objection has been taken, and perhaps with good reason, that Lord DURHAM is not a Member of the new Cabinet. We are sorry that he is not, for cer tainly no public man is better qualified to support the Liberal cause, or do more service to his KING and country. But though his Lordship is not at present a Member of the Administration, the time may not be far distant when he will. Of his Lordship's qualifications for office, we cannot quote a better authority than the Times, which on a recent occasion thus spoke of his merits : ( From the Times, May 31, 1834. ) , c Why was a man of such decided ability and such manly and open bearing left out as Lord Durham, far example, to make room for one like Lord Auckland ?

LONI)ON, THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1834, his own person, by his mere acceptance of the seals of Colo nial or (we wish it miglrt have been so) Forei7n Secretary— nay, or a.iy ot!;Pr of:lee of the Government—:7ollb; have been received with open arms by the country as a Pledge of the liberal and straightforward measures which could not fail to be pursued. Lord Durham would have brought with him, as allies to the Government, the whole weight of the numerous, intelligent, well-organised, and now, we are afraid, alienated and embittered, Dissenting body. They know the steady and enlightened attachment of that Noble Earl to their cause, in so far as it is the cause of good government, including that of equal justice; and we repeat, that the Dissenters would have claimed from Lord Durham no further immediate pledge of his support, beyond his personal accession to the Ministry." These' observations were made on the secession of Mr. STANLEY and others from the Cabinet, and the public will naturally ask what does the Times say to day in support of Lord DURHAM'S conclusive claims to office ? Here is the recommendation : (From the Times of this day.) " We have hesitated, and indeed now bring ourselves with no little difficulty, to allude to a circumstance which rather concerns ourselves than the public. A Noble Lord, for whom we have often expressed esteem, and whom we wish still to re gard with friendly feelings, is reported to give out that he can influence this journal by means of one or two individuals with whom he has some acquaintance. We think we shall equally serve his Lordship and ourselves by stating, most emphatically, that he neither has nor can have any influence with us except such as he may derive from our approbation of his public conduct, and that any attempt to exert any other influence, or any vaunt of such influence, can only redound to his own discomfiture. His Lordship has, we are told, .acquired a right by property to influence the opinions of another journal : let him be content with that : we doubt, though we have not a mean opinion of his abilities, his power to manage more than one such engine —nay, if we may judge by what has already appeared, we should say he has much to learn before he can manage that one, either by himself or by attorney. However, the field is open : he has a right to try his skill, and we will not pronounce a decisive opinion on the endeavours of a novice. One salu tary caution, however, we give him for his own sake ; let him not listen too implicitly to the flattery of his friends or to the suggestions of his own self-love ; else he may afford to his enemies that species of sport which the poet speaks of when he describes an engineer hoist with his own petard.' " We should not perhaps have troubled our readers with these matters, but that our attention has been lately called to the eccentric turns of our very clever, but not very consistent, contemporary. Don CARLOS is now in Spain—at least so say the French Journalists, one and all—and from all that has yet happened, threatens to give no small annoyance to the QUEEN'S Government. It is not for us to speak definitely of the sentiments entertained by the King of the FRENCH relative to the state of affairs in Spain ; but there are rumours abroad which hint that his Most Christia,n Majesty is not as ill-affected to wards the usurper as is consistent with his public re cognition of the lawful sovereignty of his Royal Niece. Considerable excitement has arisen in Paris in con sequence of the arrest of M. JAUGE, the banker, who published a letter in the Paris Papers, on the 15th instant, stating that he had been officially in formed of CARLOS'S arrival in Spain, and was empowered to raise a loan in favour of the pre tended rightful heir to the Spanish Crown. His ar rest took place on the Bourse, at three o'clock on the very day on which his letter appeared ; and he was in stantly carried before the Prefecture of Police, to an swer a charge of attempting to extort money from the people under false pretences, he having made proposals for raising money to recruit the resources of an usurper. What the result will be—whether M. JAUGE will be subjected to any penalty for what has occurred is not yet known ; but the whole particulars, including his examination, will be made public in a day or two. However, the conduct of the French Executive in this affair is highly praiseworthy ; and, if sanc tioned by the KING, refutes all that has been circulated respecting his MAJESTY'S fears of the dangers which the House of ORLEANS appre hend from the spread of constitutional liberty in Spain. It would be useless to waste a supposition on what will be the consequences of CA os's expedition ; everything about it will be soon matter of history, not speculation. FRENCH FUNDS.—Paras, JULY 15.

Extracts from Dutch, Brussels, and German papers will be found in another column. We have no room for comment. If we may believe the latest foreign arrivals, Swit zerland is at last prostrate at the feet of the Holy Al liance. She has been sacrificed by the non-interven tion of France, whose interest it was to have stood by her, and supported her in her diplomatic struggles with the three Great Powers holding their councils in Vienna. We learn, by arrivals so late as the 10th inst., that M. HESS, the President of the Vorort, on recommending an unqualified compliance with the will of the Allied Sovereigns of Austria, Russia, and Prussia, declared, with tears in his eyes, that there was no alternative, as the States had been be trayed by their enemies, and forsaken by their friends. A division took place in the assembly on the question of unqualified submission, when the votes were 114 for, to 61 against. So that unless France bestirs herself, the only barrier which defended her from the inroads of Prussia and Austria will be levelled before the termination of many weeks. The apathy of France and England with regard to the proceedings which have been going on for some months at Vienna, is really astonishing. France knows well that Switzerland is the only defence she has against the encroachment of Austria; and Eng land is equally certain, that the subjugation of the. Swiss by any of the Allied Sovereigns, would destroy the balance of power in Europe. There is now no time to be lost. Switzerland is at this moment in the clutches •of Austria ; and she must be extricated, or France and England may prepare for a war with the crowned despots of the North. SURREY THEATRE. Last night we visited this house, and were delighted to find it crowded from floor to ceiling. The performances were Black Eyed Susan, a romantic drama called the Three Black Crescents, and Don Quixote. The second piece is an enigma to us ; for it is too serious to be a burlesque, and too farcical to be a serious representation of Turkish manners. A little alter ation in the characters of the Cadi of Glizne (Mr. Vale) and Seedee Sufak the Slave (Mr. T. P. Cook) would be a great improvement. Seriousness and submission characterize the proceedings of all Eastern authorities, however whi ms i ca l ; and all slaves however indulged by their masters. The closing scene was good, and no pains have been spared to produce the finest scenic effect. The town of Toulouse was visited on the Bth inst. by a most terrific storm. The hail fell in great abundance, and of a size larger than the oldest inhabitant had ever seen before. Some of the hailstones were as large as eggs. The glass of all the windows fronting the wind was broken.— French Paper. SUIPPING INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) 'llO LI.OYDS. 16.—Wind W. S. \V - .

The continued disappearance and great mystery which pre vails, both in this country and in France, of Don Carlos and his destination, causes more excitement with the public than the formation of the new Ministry. The express from Paris this morning is of some interest, particularly that part which relates to the departure of Don Carlos from London, and his journey through France to Spain ; of which, it appears, that the French Government and their vigilant police are in the same state of ignorance as we are in this country. • The express also brings the arrest of Don Carlos's banker, at Paris, on the Royal Exchange. The following letter we have seen from Madrid, to the 9th inst. The great panic caused by the cholera is now over, for at this moment I don't hear of a single case ; the greatest enthusiasm and content reigns in the capital. Hundreds of workmen are employed in constructing the Saloon, for the meeting of the Cortes, and the Queen will open it in person. THE FUNDS. Most of the Funds have improved this morning. Consols are 92}i for the Account ; Spanish has been done at 44 : at present they are 431 ; Portuguese 861 7. HALF-PAST ONE. A Dutch mail has arrived, which brings the Spanish Stock lower ; we do not hear of any political news by it. One of the suite of Don Carlos was on 'Change, who posi tively states that Don Carlos joined the Carlists on the 10th instant. _ _ . Consols may be quoted at 921 for the Account ; little doing. Spanish Stock heavy, at 434 to k.. Portuguese Stock main tains its price, at 87+ No official information as yet of Don Carlos. HALF-PAST TWO. The Duke of Portland yacht has arrived at Plymouth from Lisbon. Don Pedro had recovered, driving about Lisbon in an open carriage. All tranquil at Lisbon. TIIREE 0' CL 0 CK. Consols for the Account, 92k. The Echo du Peuple of Poictiers states, that in the canton of Villedieu, five reapers having taken shelter from a storm under a tree, were struck by lightning. Two of the number were killed on the spot, and but little hopes are enter tained of the recovery of the others. A petrified Indian child has lately been found by some stone quarriers at Guernsey, in Ohio. This extraordi nary specimen was found embedded in a solid mass of rock, and is described as having the appearance of a stone image, somewhat imperfect—a very fair outline of a young Indian— done in limestone. A small row of beads was found in the same cavity.—American Paper. • That important branch of national industry, the Iron Trade, is in a drooping condition. This week have been held the Quarterly Meetings of the Iron Masters of Staffordshire and Shropshire, and we regret to learn that their prospects are any thing but encouraging. Shropshire best forge pigs are down as low as 41., and Staffordshire bars are at any price the ma nufacturers can command. On Wednesday, at Wolverhampton, it was proposed to lower the price of bars 10s. per ton, but a further reduction seemed inevitable, and the parties interested were to meet again yesterday, to come, if possible, to a fixed determination for the present quarter. This second meeting is a lamentable proof of the dull state of the market. It costs but little time and effort to determine when prices shall advance or remain stationary, nor to determine the reduction when orders are at all plentiful ; but the difficulty in the present depressed state of things appears to be, whether the iron-masters may not be compelled to sell at lower prices before the end of the quar ter than any they would at present like to name. Perhaps the iron-masters have themselves to blame for this reaction. It may be questioned whether the condition of the market has been such as to justify recent advances. We think not. There was, it is true, a temporary advance, but that being only tem porary, we doubt the wisdom of taking such signal advantage of scarcity. The ruse about great orders for railroad iron turns out to be a ruse after all, and could, therefore, have no other tendency than that of placing the trade in as bad or a worse position than before.—Sheffield Mercury. LEITII.—Some years ago a vast number of human bones were exhumed in -St. Anthony's-street, when the ground was broken up for the laying of the gas pipes. These, from the decayed state in which they were found, and one of the s kulls containing a musket ball, were supposed to be the re mains of those who fell at the seige of Leith. A farther quan tity was dug up in excavating the foundation of a new church i n the Links. This week, while workmen were taking down a n old' wall at the head of Wellington-place, behind Constitu tion-street, they came upon several human skeletons embedded in a dry sandy mould, mixed with submarine deposits, and at a f a rther depth they discovered an immense number of skulls, amounting to nearly 100. These are in the highest state of preservation, and what is worthy the attention of the physiolo gist, scarcely a carious tooth is to be found amongst them. Besides these mournful relics of the olden time, two balls were found at the same place, one of which weighs 61, and the other about 12 pounds. It is well known that a battery was placed on the Giant's Brae, near the golf-house, during the s iege, from some ponderous field-piece belonging to which the balls must have been discharged. One or two of the skulls which we have examined bear evident marks of sabre wounds, which further proves that this spot has been a principal scene of the bloody strife.—Scotsman. L\IPEIIIAI, PA THIS DAY, 'II[7P-';DAY Juzr 17 .0.• ........t I , HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. J.

The LORD CHANCELLOR, the Marquis of WESTMINSTER, and the Bishop. of HEREFORD, sat in the House of Lords to-day, to hear English Appeals. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE PRINCIPAL AND SCHOLARS OF THE KING'S HALL AND COLLEGE OF BRAZENNOSE, OXFORD. This was an appeal from the decision of the present Master of the Rolls, dismissing the information which had been filed by the appellants without costs. The information was filed by his Majesty's Attorney-General at the relation of Lord Suf field and Mr. Alexander Nowell against the respondents, who were the Governors of Middleton School, in the county of Lancaster, praying that an account might be taken under the direction and decree of the Court of the estates belonging to the Charity in question, and of what was due:from the Respondents in the character of Gover nors ; and for a reference to the master to approve of a scheme for the future regulation of the Charity, and also for a Re ceiver. Queen Elizabeth, by letter dated the 11th of August, 1552, upon the petition of Alex. Nowell*, the then Dean of St. Pauls, created and founded a grammar school at Middleton, in Lancashire, with one master and one under-master, to be called the " Free School of Queen Elizabeth, in Middleton," and after naming Mr. Edmund Ireland to be the First Master, her Ma jesty willed and ordained that any subsequent master should, dur ing the life of Alex. Nowell, be appointed by him, and after his death by the principal and scholars of Brazennose College, and her Majesty also appointed the principal and scholars of Brazennose College to be governors of the school, and incor porated them by the name of the principal and scholars of King's Hall and College of Brazennose in Oxford, Governors of the Free School of Queen Elizabeth in Middleton ; and further ordained that there shall be of her own foundation in the College of Brazennose, six scholarships, to be elected from the Middleton Free School, or other schools in the county of Lancaster, the nomination of those schola rs t o b e i n Alex ander Nowell during his life, and afterwards in the Principal and scholars of Brazennose. Her Majesty also gave power to Alexander Nowell and his executors to found seven other scholarships, with such stipends as he or hi s executors s h ou ld appoint; and also gave to Alexander Nowell during his life, and to the respondents at his decease, the gOvernment of the school, and the disposition of its rents and revenues. For the furtherance of this object, her Majesty granted to the Prin cipal and scholars of Brazennese certain annual rents, and profits amounting to the sum of 201. yearly, and also her two third parts of the manor of Boyton Hall, to be held by them for ever, for the purpose of paying annually to the master 20 marks, and to the under -master 10 marks, and to each of the six scholars 5 marks ; also giving liberty to the respondents, or any other person, to take other land not exceeding the yearly value of 1001., for the purpose of increasing the foundation of the school. Two other in dentures, of the dates of the 30th April, 1532, and the 25th of October, 1574, were executed—the former between the principal and scholars of the first part, Alexander Nowell, Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's, of the sec on d part, and Mr. W. Cotton, who held the manor of Boyton Hall from the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's, of the third part. That in denture, after reciting a doubt on the validity of the Queen's grant of the two-third party of Boyton, on the ground that the Crown never had seisen of the premises, confirmed the title of Cotton, upon the annual payment of a certain sum by him to the Dean and Chapter, which sum the Dean and Chapter expressed an intention to grant to the principal and scholars of Brazennose. By the next indenture the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's covenanted to pay to the principal scholars the yearly sum of 201. granted by Queen Elizabeth ; and also the sum to be paid by Cotton. Mr. Alexander Nowell, the sums already granted being ina dequate to make the payments stated by the letters patent, purchased from Lord Cheyney the reversion of the manor of Upberry, and parsonage and advowson of the vicarage of Gil lingham, at a rent of five marks and eight score and eight quarters of dried malt. Subsequently, by deed of the 10th of April, 1579, he granted all his right_ in the premises to Queen Elizabeth and her successors for ever, and her Majesty, by letters patent, granted the whole property contained in the deed to the principal and scholars of Brazennose, governors of her free school in Middleton, and their successors, in free alms perpetual for ever, to pay to each of her Majesty's thirteen poor scholars, elected out of her free school at Middleton, or from any other school in the county of Lancaster, the annual sum of 31. 6s. Bd., and to the master 235. 4d., and the under master 6s. Bd., in augmentation of their stipends, and they were also to pay certain other sums for the improvement of the Commons, of the Principal and Fellows who should be present in the College during three weeks ; at the date of these letters patent Lord Cheyney was living, and the pro perty, therefore, did not come into possession till his death in 1535 ' • but Mr. Powell, during the life of Lord Ch e y ne y, h a d made large advances for the purposes of the letters patent. The large surplus of the property in question, from the time of the death of Lord Cheyney, together with the great bene fits derived from the increased value of the premises had been applied, from time to time to the general purposes of Brazennose College. They renewed the leases from time to time, taking large ftnes, and some of the property had been sold, under an Act of Parliament, at prices exceed ing 7,000/., which had been invested in the purchase of an es tate in the corporate name of the College, and for its general benefit. The question, therefore, in the information was, whe ther it was the intention of the founder that the property com prised in the two letters patent should be held beneficially by the college, charged only with the p ar ti cu l ar paymen t s t a t e d, or should be wholly applied to the charitable purposes expressed by his Honour. The Master of the Rolls thought that it was to be collected from the letters patent, and from the conduct of the founder himself that he treated the college as entitled to the property, subject to specific charges. His Honour therefore dismissed the information, but without costs, and from that decision the present appeal was brought. Mr. Bickersteth, Dr. Lushington, and Mr. Blenman, were Counsel for the Appellants, and Sir Edward Sugden and Mr. Bethel for the Respondents. Mr. BICKERSTETH addressed their Lordships on behalf of the appellant, and was followed by Dr. LUSHINGTON, who was speaking when our Reporter left. * We here give our readers a true copy of a petition sent by Mr. Alexander Howell to the Lord High Treasury. complain ing of the conduct of Sir Edward Hobie, and praying his interference. The letter i s cop i e d f rom th e original among the Lansdowne manuscripts in the British Museum. " My humble dutie to your honorable Lordshipp remembered, might it please the same favourably to hear mine and my brother Robert's some time attorney in the Court of Wardes his humble suite in his last Will and Testament, by the wordes written in this schedule enclosed, who specially charged me uppon his death-bed to procure the foundred of Myddleton Schole in the County of Lancaster, whear we and other our brethren were taught in our childhoods, and the said Schole to be annexed unto Brazennose College in Oxford, whear we were poor students in the time of our youthe, which her Majestie by your Lordshipps and Sir Walter Aliedmaye's commenda tion of my humble suite, most graciously granted : and founded the Schole by the name of Queene Elizabeth's Free Schole in Myddleton, andanexed I gave the said Schole unto the Principal and Scholars of Brazennose College in Oxford, Governors of her Majestie's Schole aforesaid, and did also give the Manor of Upburie and Parsonage of Gillingham, unpropried in the countee of Kent unto the said Col lege. The which Manor and Parsonage Sir Edward Hobie, Knt., • bath holden by coler of a lease made by the Lord Cheyney now bye the space of fyve years and more, so that now he oweth to the said College above eight hundreth pounds, for some redresse whereof the said College was inforced to seek their remedye by the law, and dyd bring an action against him in ye Court of Common Pleas for pte of ye said avverages to the value of V.
