ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 12. ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. DIXIE. The charity in this case was established as far back as the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and according to the will of the testator, taken in connection with the interpretation of the letters-patent, it was then considered simply as a grammar-school. The rents of the charity estates, however, having in the pro cess of time become considerably augmented, the Court, on application to it, was of opinion thar, consistently with the testator's intention and the language of the charter, the character oi the foun dation might be materially enlarged, and accordingly classical and other masters were appointed; the scheme was approved of, and regulations were given for the conduct of the school, under which for some time it had gone on and prospered in all its depart ments. The scheme then adopted, however, did not absorb the amount of the charity funds, but still left an annual income of above 500/. The question now was, what should be done with that surplus ? It was proposed, without disturbing the original scheme, that an enlargement of the founda tion should take place. His HONOUR was disposed to adopt the sug gestion, and should therefore refer it to the Tvlaster to approve of a proper scheme for the application of the surplus profits. ATTORNEY•GENERAL V. THE IRONMONGERS' COMPANY. In this case the testator, in 1723, bequeathed property to a large amount to the Ironmongers' Company in trust as to one moiety to be applied in the redemption of British slaves in Turkey or Bar bary, the other moiety to be appropriated towards the support of charity schools in the city of London, and the assistance of poor members of the Iron mongers' Company. He also particularly directed in his will that each of these objects should be kept quite distinct, and that the sums specifically assigned to each should not on any account be alienated. In respect of the two latter objects of the testator's bounty, the income of the property had been regu larly and usefully applied ; but although at the date of the will, and at subsequent intervals, there had been persons answering the description of British slaves in Turkey or Barbary, there had not existed any for a long period, and the funds devoted for the purpose of their redemption, now annually produc ing between three thousand pounds and four thou sand pounds, had accumulated to a very large amount. The question was, whether, laying aside a sum which might be deemed sufficient to answer the intentions of the testator, it was not advisable to apply to Parliament for the application of the surplus. His HONOUR referred it to the Master to approve of a scheme to be submitted to Parliament with that view. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nor. 12. OXENDEN V. EX3IOUT/1. Mr. KNIGHT said that the case came before the Court upon exceptions to the report of the Master, which had been taken by the defendant, one of the heirs and personal representatives of the late Lord Exmouth. The Master had reported that a good title had been shown to the Hawkesbramble estate by the plaintiff, and it was a part and parcel of the anor of Ashton. Sir E. Sugden, Mr. Pepys, Mr. Preston, and Mr. Turner, appeared to sustain the Master's re port, and rested their case principally upon an ori ginal deed of 1720, wherein the Havvkesbramble estate was described as a portion of the manor of Ashton, and upon a subsequent Act of Parliament, in 1753, confirming a partition among the four daughters of Sir John Chudleigh, one of whom married Sir J. Chichester, and from whom the pre sent plaintiff is de s cended. The VICE-CHANCELLOR was of opinion that the Master's report most be confirmed. The next exception, relating to a conveyance of the outstanding estate, was governed by the deci sion on the first. His HONOUR rose at two o'clock, to attend the pricking for Sheriffs in the Court of Exchequer. It was this morning understood in Court, that Sir E. Sugden had announced his intention of disconti nuing to practice before the Lord Chancellor, after the end of the present week, except in briefs already delivered. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 12. BAIL COURT. Before Mr. Justice LirrLEDALE and a Common Jury.) MORGAN •. 'WILLIAMS AND ANOTHER. This was an action to recover damages for tres pass, dilapidation, &c. The pkintiff had been a cheesemonger, residing in George-court, Piccadilly, the houses in which belonged to one of the defend ants, Miss Williams (who resides in Belgrave-place, Chelsea) he not holding immediately under the latter, but as under-tenant of a person named Keene. The circumstances out of which the action arose occurred in November, 1832, when the back wall of the plaintiff's house was taken down, the floors partly broken through, and the house left ex posed for several weeks during the inclement season. The plaintiff's case was, that this was done against his will. It was further urged, that the inconveni erice to the plaintiff, by the trespass of the defen dant, was greatly increased by his wife and family being in a state of indisposition at the time. The Jury found for the plaintiff for 531., being 501. for the loss of his trade, and 31. for the medical man's expenses in attending the plaintiff's wife. BANKRUPTCY COURT, Nov. 12. COURT OF REVIEW. EX PARTE BRIGGS, IN RE NOTLEY. This was an appeal from the decision of the ma jority of three of the Commissioners, sitting as a Sub-division Court in the Court of Bankruptcy, Basinghall-street, on the 27th of August. The majority of the Commissioners decided that the petitioner, who is a sister-in-law of the bankrupt, was not entitled to prove on the estate for 2301., less a small amount paid to her on account of this loan, which she made to the bankrupt to enable him to carry on a chocolate manufactory on a new principle. The ground on which the Commis sioners rejected the proof was, that a partnership actually subsisted between the parties in the risk or profits of the business. The Court to.day overruled this decision of the Commissioners, and directed the petitioner to prove for the amount of her debt on the estate, but no order was made as to the costs of this application. EX PARTE NOTLEY, IN RE NOTLEY. This was the petition of the bankrupt alluded to in the former case, and it prayed that the fiat might h e superseded, as the petitioning creditor's debt was not a bona fide one, and therefore incapable of sustaining the fiat; but (as it is sPen above) the Court having decided that the petitioning creditor, Miss Brim, was entitled to prove on the estate, the petition was dismissed, with directions that the costs of the petitioning creditor incurred by this application should come out of the estate, and that one order on both petitions should be drawn up. Several other cases 77rtte disposed of, and the Judges rose at a late hour. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 12. FISHER V. BEGREZ. Mr. PETERSDORFF, for the defendant, moved for a rule to show cause why the Sheriff of Middle-ex should not pay over to the defendant, Signor Begrez, 4601., paid under protest by him to the sheriff on his having been taken in execution on a writ of ca. sa. The ground of the application was, that the defen dant was privileged from all arrests for debt as the servant of the Bavarian ambassador. Signor Begrez had been during the last twelve years, and still was, th e chief singer of the ambassador at his chapel in Warwick -street, and had received, and was in the receipt of a yearly salary of 301. He was liable to be called on for his services on Sunday, and all the religious festivals of the Roman Catholic Church. Lord LYNDHURST Take a rule to show cause. INSOLVENT COURT, Nov. 12. Michael Davis was opposed by Mr. Collins in person ; he was supported by Mr. COOKE. The insolvent had been discharged under the Act in May, 1831, since which time he had accepted accommodation bills for a dealer in skins, of the name of Phillips, of Dockhead, to the amount of 901.; these acceptances had been dishonoured, and the insolvent now applied to the Court to be relieved from them and his other debts. The Learned Commissioner BOWEN determined that his present application could not be supported without the consent of three-fourths of his creditors to his discharge. Edmund Smith was opposed by a Mr. George Robson in person; he was supported by Mr. COOKE. The insolvent had been in partnership with another person as carriers between Hastings arid London. Mr. George Robson had a claim against him for 641. for hire of a van ; the inquiry was to ascertain what had become of the horses employed in the business, and to whom certain furniture be longed. The case was ordered to stand over for certain way-bills to be filed. Thomas Sweet was opposed by Mr. Scales, jun., on the part of himself and father, Mr. Michael Scales ; by Mr. Smith, Mr. Matthews, and Mr. Upsal, in person. He was supported by Mr. COOKE. The insolvent is a butcher, and his opposing cre ditors are salesmen and carcass-butchers, in a large way of business. The insolvent had dealt for several years with the Messrs. Scales, and his payments were generally made every week or every fortnight ; the whole amount of these dealings had amounted to 6001. The insolvent, in the course of last summer, had been in debt to Messrs. Scales to the amount of 30/. Mr. Scales, jun., had applied to him for pay ment, and he had represented to that gentleman that he was short of money, but that his brother-in law had died and left him 5001. The executors made some dispute about the immediate payment of the legacy, but that it was sure to be paid. The testator had died worth 100,000/., and he (Sweet) considered himself very ill-used in riot having a larger bequest made to him. Mr. Scales, jun., who admitted that he was not very curious as to the amount of the wealth attributed to the deceased, was induced upon this representation, and also upon the good character which he considered to belong to the insolvent, whose word he believed, to wait for the payment of his demand, and also to permit the insolvent to run in his debt 28/. further, making the total of his present demand .58/. It appeared that the account of the legacy was devoid of truth, and that the insolvent was not entitled to any pro perty whatever. Mr. Upsal, a salesman, had trusted the insolvent to the amount of 491. 18s. a short time before he went to prison. The insolvent had made the same representation to him concerning the 500/. which he had made to Mr. Scales. The debt of Mr. Matthews was for goods in the way of.his trade, &C. The insolvent denied the representation of the legacy of 500/.; he admitted he had said something about some expectancy from a relation of his wife. The Learned Commissioner BOWEN said the con duct of the insolvent had been such that he should not he entitled to his discharge until he sheuld have been in prison six calendar month,. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. CHARGE OF FORGERY.—Yesterday Mr. Cope, the Marshal, brought before the LORD MAYOR a man of gentlemanly appearance, named William Collier, a surgeon in practice at Liverpool, upon a charge of having forged the name of the executors to a will in the transfer of a large sum of money. The unfortunate man was obliged to sir during the investigation, he was so deeply affected at his situation. Mr. Lumley, the barrister, attended for the pri soner ; Mr. Freshfield attended to prosecute for the Bank of England. Mr. Freshfield said that Mr. Collier, and a Mr. Richard Squire, were trustees under the will of Mary Martin, of Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, upon trust to pay the dividends on a considerable sum of money to the prisoner's wife. The prisoner had no dominion over the money at all, but received the dividends for his wife for several years. At length, in January last, a transfer of the property was made at the Bank under circumstances which threw suspicion upon the prisoner, and the Bank Solicitor immediately employed Mr. Cope, the Mar shal, who procured a warrant to apprehend Mr. Collier. The prisoner was taken into custody and charged with the offence. Mr. Richard Squire stated that he was one of the executors under the will of the late Mrs. Mary Mar tin, and he identified the probate of the will handed to him by the Lord Mayor. The prisoner was his co-executor. In the will was a bequest of a sum of money for the benefit of Mrs. Sarah Collier. Wit ness and the prisoner invested the money in the Three per Cents. Reduced. The prisoner, as it was a matter of some convenience, received the dividends for Mrs. Collier. Witness did not attend at the Bank in January last for the purpose of transferring the property mentioned in the will, and the writing in the Bank transfer-book was not his writing. George and Henry Wheeler were the witness's stockbrokers on the occasion of making the original transfer, and no other stockbrokers had been ern. ployed. He declared that he never employed or sanctioned the employment of Mr. Durant, the stockbroker. Mr. Lumley—How long is it since the original transfer was made ? Mr. Squire—The date of the original instrument is April, 1823. Mr. Lumley —Look at the writing of your name, and say whether you know whose it is ? Mr. Squire—l do not know whose it is. It is evidently the writing of some p erson w h o i s not at all ac quainted wit h my wr i t i ng. The LORD MAYOR—.Do you 'seep other accounts lat the Bank ? Mr. Squire—Several. There are many accounts in the Bank to which I invariably attend myself. The LORD MAYOR—Then you are known at the Bank ? Mr. Squire—l believe I am; for I have been in the habit of visiting it frequently for the last thirty years. The transfer lately made was made to William Collier, jun., who, I believe, is the son of the prisoner. The LORD MAYOR—Have you known the prisoner ? Mr. Squire—My acquaintance with him commenced in consequence of our co-executorship, and did not extend beyond that. He is, as far as I know, a respectable person. He uniformly received his wife's dividends. Mr. Blackburn, clerk to Mr. Durant, the stock broker, stated that the prisoner was introduced to the office by a gentleman to transact business. The prisoner called at the office on the 10th of January, 1833, and gave instructions in writing for the transfer of a sum of money, and witness accompanied him and another person, whom the prisoner intro duced as Mr. Squire, to the Bank, to sign the trans fer-book. The LORD MAYOR asked whether the witness was in the habit of doing business of so important a na ture in so loose a manner ? Mr. Blackburn said that his employer did his bu siness as all the other respectable brokers were in the habit of doing theirs. The LORD MAYOR—Then I must say that so very loose a mode of transacting business is calculated to give great facilities to practices of a fraudulent na ture. It certainly is most improper. Mr. Blackburn submitted that the house to which he belonged was obliged to act in conformity with the general practice of the most respectable brokers. The LORD MAYOR—I say that certifying to the knowledge of a person of whom you know nothing is affording facilities to acts of fraud. Mr. Blackburn said it was impossible to act upon any other system than that which was generally adopted. He then proceeded in his evidence. He saw the prisoner and the person he considered to be Mr. Squire sign the transfer-hook. Another clerk in the employment of Mr. Durant was present when the prisoner called and gave in structions to sell out stock in his name to the amount of 1201. The prisoner afterwards gave him instruc tions to sell out 2,0441. 3s. Id. in the Reduced Three per Cents. Witness made out the ticket, which was drawn in the names of William Collier, E. 1., of Stockenchurch, Oxen, and Richard Squire, Esq., of King's Langley, Herts. Mr. Durant had bought the 1201. stock for the prisoner, which was sold on the occasion alluded to. The sale of the stock and the transfer of the 2,044/. 3s. ld. took place on the same day. Mr. Rowland Durant in October transferred the stock by virtue of a power of attorney granted by Mr. Collier, jun. Witness transmitted the amount in Bank post bills to Mr. Collier at Liverpool. The LORD MAYOR again observed upon the im proper practice of certifying to the knowledge of an unkno.v►u person. Mr. Durant—The prisoner so completely iden tified himself with the person he introduced as Mr. Squire— The LORD MAYOR—I 9 this fair to the prisoner ? I do not say whether you or your clerks acted wrongly, but surely it would have been advisable to compare the writing of Mr. Squire with that which was pretended to be his writing in the trans fer-book. It appears that there was no resemblance at all, so that the fabricator would have been at once detected. Mr. Durant said that the Bank knew nothing at all of trust property. The LORD MAYOR asked the prisoner's counsel whether he wished to make any observation upon the case. Mr. Lumley said that the gentleman at the bar was not chargeable with a guilty knowledge. " I advise him," said Mr. Lumley, " not to say any thing atpresent." The LORD MAYOR—Prisoner, It is my duty to commit you for trial. No ground has been stated for remanding you, and I must therefore send you to Newgate. The prisoner, who leaned his head upon his hands during the investigation, and appeared to be overwhelmed with affliction, was then fully com mitted to Newgate. We understand the unfortu nate man has eight children. In the Justice-room he was certainly an object of compassion. BOW-STREET. BYERS V. THE HUNGERFORD MARKET COMPANY. —The question already alluded to in our paper, as to the right of the Hungerford Market Company to allow the sale of hay, straw, &c., after certain hours in the day, was yesterday decided by Sir F. Ro E and three other magistrates against the Company ; and Mr. Alley, as counsel on their behalf, gave no tice of appeal to the Sessions. OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT.—A fashionably dressed young man, who gave his name Matthew Taylor, was charged with committing a most outrageous as sault upon a poor tailor named 'William Banks. Sir P. ROE ordered him to find bail, and to give forty-eight hours' notice thereof to the prosecutor before he could be liberated. Q UEEN-SQUARE. JUVENILE DELINQENCY.—Yesterday two wel!. known young thieves, not more than twelve years of age, named John Hindman and John Stewart, were placed at the bar before Mr. Wfirrn, charged with stealing four snuff-boxes from the shop of Mrs. Mary Squires, of No. 58, Strutton-ground, West minster. They were committed for trial. ANOTHER JUVENILE THIEF.—John Mayhew, another lad about eleven years of age, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing from the person of Anne Millar, of Great Peter street, Westminster, the sum of 103. 6d. He was fully committed for trial. HATTON- GARDEN. Yesterday Jack Scroggins, the prizefighter, was brought to this office, charged with having been found in a state of Intoxication in Holborn on Mon day night. Mr. Sergeant SELLON asked him what he had to say for himself ? Jack replied that it was werry seldom he got tosticated ; but he happened on Mon day night to pop in at Tom Spring's, the Castle, in Holborn, where he met a few of his old pals, who treated him so liberally that it made his napper rarher queer, and when he was about to leave the champion's house a gemman insisted on his taking a parting drain, which gave him the staggers, and be ing unable to proceed on his road home he made up his mind to lodge for the night on the pavement, when the police kindly took him to the station.house. Mr. Sergeant SELLON said he ought to be very much obliged to the officer for doing so, and asked the veteran whether he had 55., the usual penalty for drunkenness ? Jack (rubbing down his hair) said that times had much altered with him. He had fought many hard battles for the amusement and profit of others, and now he was left pennyless to fight against poverty, without a backer. He hoped his Worship would forgive him this ere time, and he'd try and keep more soberer for the time to come. Mr. Sergeant SELLON seemed to sympathise for poor Jack, and discharged him. UNION-HALL. A DISTRESSED POET.—Yesterday John Illetcalj; a distressed looking object in worn-out sailor's clothes, was brought be ore the sitting Magistr tett under the following circumstances : A policeman on the preceding evening, while duty in Dover-street, saw th defendant carrying a large placard, on which w written i large cha racters, the under-mentioned appeal to the feelings of those who were benevolently inclined. The pla card was headed—" Written backwards. A painter out of employ." t then went on thus:— " Whilst aliens with dogs and monkeys may address The belles and beaux that on the footpath walk, A wretch like me must not his state express, If wanting labour, with a bit of chalk. Shameful perversion ! Now grown old and poor, That policemen, at their capricious will, May drag me here to pass a month or more In 'durance vile' upon the treading-mill. Britons, full fifteen years I struggled hard With foes by laud and storms upon the sea ; View my sad state, how amply my reward, Perverted justice, rags and poverty." Underneath the above poetical effusion, which the defendant said was his own composition, were the words, "A free-born Englishman, the admira'ion of the world, the envy of surrounding nations." It was stated that the defendant pointed out to the spectators the words just quoted, at the same time exhibiting his own deplorable person, ejaculating; " Here I am, th e envy o f surroun di ng nat i on s: It was further stated that the defendant collected a crowd, to whose feelings he made a strong appeal, and alms were given to him. It appeared that the defendant had formerly served in the navy as captain's clerk, and since then he had led a wandering kind of life. Being a bit of a poet he had had one or two works published, but finding it a most unprofitable speculation he determined upon having no more to do with publishers, and commenced giving his productions to the world in his own way. With this intention in view he began to write his verses with chalk on the pavements of most of the cities and towns in England and Scotland, and by his own account made our a very decent kind of livelihood in that way. He had recently arrived in town, in the ex pectation of reaping a harvest here on the chalking system ; but the first day that he exhibited in public, which was in one of the streets at the west end of the town, a policeman made his appearance, and, having rubbed out the chalk verse-, insisted upon his leaving that part of the town altogether. He tried the experiment in other parts of London, arid met with the same degree of success, until at length, exasperated beyond measure at the treatment he experienced, in a fit of rage he composed the verses above mentioned, and exhibited them on a board which he carried.—He was committed for fourteen days. T 0 WN.II4.LL. EXTENSIVE ROBBERIES BY HOP MERCHANTS SERVANTS. - Yesterday Win. Evans, servant to Mr. Beament, hop-factor, of Park-sfreet, Borough, and two men, named Innes and Rivers, were placed at the bar for re-examination, the former prisoner being charged as the thief, and the two latter with being ciders and abettors in a robbery in the prose cutor's premises. Within twelve months robberies have taken place n the district of this Office to the amount of up wards of fifteen thousand pounds' worth of hops, snd notwithstanding the vigilance of Kinsey and Johnson, two active officers of this establishment, they failed in capturing any of the robbers until Friday morning last, when they apprehended tke three prisoners, with a pocket of hops in their pos session. John Kinsey, for months past, by night and by day, had been endeavouring-, in conjunction with Johnson, to detect the robbers of the different hop factors' warehouses, and in consequence of over hearing a conversation in a public-house between the prisoners, when a plan was suggested to rob the prosecutor's premises early on Friday morning, witness and Johnson secreted themselves, and a little after six witness unlocked the warehouse and went in. In a short time afterwards a spring -cart, containing the two other prisoners, drawn by a fast trotting horse, was driven up, and the prisoner Evans lowered by the crane a pocket of the best hops, weighing 150Ibs. into the cart. Inflect and Rivers covered it over with rugs and hay, and then drove off. Witness pursued them, and after a hard chase, succeeded in stopping the horse, and securing the two prisoners. Witness took possession of the horse, cart, and hops. The prisoners declined saying anything in defence. Alderman ANSLEY-4 shall commit the prisoners for trial, and perhaps between this and the sessions other robberies may be detected. The office was crowded by persons in the hop trade, and a gentleman said that since the new beer shops had been licensed a number of small brewers had started, thus affording facility for the disposal of hops that were stolen, and they were instantly transported to the breweries of the minor brewers a short distance from London. It is stated in a provincial journal, that within five miles of one spot, in Somersetshire, there are I.eventeen parishes without a resident minister. UNZXPECTED TRIP TO THE EMERALD TRUE STORY.--Early in the last month, the " better half" of a farmer, residing not a hundred miles from Wickar, in Gloucestershire, left home with her two blooming daughters for the purpose of taking a " peep at the rarer shows" at Bristol fair, and of making sundry purchases. In consequence, however, of the party not returning for several days, considerable alarm was ex cited ; and the disconsolate husband, accompanied by the favoured swains of the damsels, went to Bristol in search of their lost friends. On arriving there, they could only find the vehicle in which all they held dear had taken their departure, and the horse quietly feeding in the stable of the inn. After a long and fruitless search, they came to the conclusion that the whole party had fallen in an evil hour, into the hands of ruffians, by whom they had been cruelly put to death. With this conviction strongly impressed on their minds, the father and the lovers re traced their steps to their homes, to console themselves as well as they could upon their supposed loss. In a day or two, however, the " murder" was out—the mystery solved. A letter, bearing the Cork post mark, was re ceived by the husband, informing him thus she wife and daughters had gone to the fiotwells, from whence one of the Irish steamers was just about to sail ; that they asked to be taken on board for " a little way ;" but that the sailors, either liking their company too well to part with them, or forgetting to land them at a convenient dis tance from the place of their embarkation, had taken them all the way to Cork--where they then were; and their funds being exhausted, they were under the necessity of writing for a remittance in order to defray their pas sage home. The needful was of course sent, and in due time the whole party were joyfully welcomed back to Wickar. As might be expected, the adventure has been the source of much amusement throughout the neighbour. hood in which the parties reside.— Warwick Advertiser. CAPTURE OF BURGLARS.—The town and neighbourhood of Ashburton have long been infested with a set of daring fellows, and all attempts to discover them bad hitherto been unavailing; brit having lately admitted a greenhorn into their gang, he was too fond of displaying his ill-gotten we iltb, which led to a suspicion and his apprehension ; he had not been long in custody before he confessed a few of the robberies committed by the gang within the last month ; among other items, ten hats of wheat from one farmer, five from another, and flour, cheese, and bacon, from several shops in Ashburton. They had the impudence when they effected the rubbery of the ten bags of wheat, to take a valuable horse out of a field, and use him to convey their booty to a birn they rented, and after finishing their work led back the horse efnakbrfpoin:fer;':wcrdmeadihn. Archdeacon Fruude, and Ray, to the field, then put the sacks they had shook the wheat from into two of them, and set them against the farmer's door, where they were found the next morning.
