THE WORKS OF SIR THOMAS LAW HENCE, , Late P r i nc i pa l P ortra i t P a i nter to hi s Ma j esty, rtesident of the Royal Academy of London, and Honorary • ' Member of the various Academies of Europe. Combining in the various • - subjects of the Engravings all that is Illustrious by Rank and Eminent for Talent of the -.Court mid Reign of his Most Gracious Majesty GEORGE THE FOURTH. In announcing the Works of the late lamented Presi dent of the Royal Academy, it will be needless to insist l 'P'm their high claim to admiration as Works of Art, or to descant upon their yet greater importance to History, as c ommemorating and conveying to posterity the Portraits of the Illustrious and Eminent Persons of the Court and Reign of George the Foul th, by whom the commence- Merit of the Nineteenth Century has been so signally adorned. The transcendent talents of the late President Were alone limited in their practice within the bounds of all that was illustrious or eminext, and the momentous event s in the History of Europe during the period in which he flourished combined to draw within the circle of the Court of St. James nearly all the Illustrious Charac ters who have distinguished themselves on the page of 'heftily during the Reign of His Present Majesty. That constellation of Illustrious Foreigners whom the Peace of 1814 brought to the Capital of England also led to the Royal Command for the execution of their Portraits by the h an d o f Si r Th omas Lawrence ; and those eminent Persons who did not visit England at the period alluded to, became Subjects for the exercise of his talents at their l'espective Courts. In prosecuting therefore the Objects of this Work, it will not be limited to the commemoration of the Illustrious Persons of the British Court; but by a rare *Mon of circumstance, combined with the eminence of the Alaster, it will become the Picture Gallery of all the Courts of Europe during the most eventful period which has agi tated and convulsed the History of the World. Biographi cal Memoranda will accompany the Engravings, limited to a stat ement of th e f am il y connex i on an d serv i ces o f t h e Subjects of the Portraits, with particulars of the size, cus tody, and other notices of the Pictures. A more detsiled Prospectus will be ready in a few days, With a List of Pictures which have already been granted by the Proprietors for the service of this Work ; and in the Mean time Communications are requested to be ad dressed to the Publishers, by whom also the Names of Subscriber s will be received and registered for delivery according to the exact rotation in which Orders are com municated to Colnaghi, Son and Co. ; and Harding and Lepard, Pall:mall East, London.

No. XVII. will be published on the Ist of March, containing Romeo and Juliet and Timon of Athens; and the whole Work will not extend beyond Twenty-five Numbers. PROSPECTUS. The Illustrations of Shakepeare are so numerous and so varied that, at flat sight, it appears impossible now to produce any which shall possess either novelty or attrac tion. But the projector of the present work hopes that it is still in his power to offer to the public an accompani ment to the dramas of our immortal Poet which shall be desirable, and at least novel in plan. It is his intention to give the whole story of each play in a connected series of designs, whether the incidents be performed or narrated. The manifest advantages of this mode of illustration are such as to occasion surprise that it should not have been undertaken before. The interest that is excited for each individual character, the satisfaction that always results from seeing any thing complete, and the much greater scope fur the invention of the artist, are indisputable re commendations of the plan. . _ The Designs will be engraved in outline by the artist himself. The costume, the national physiognomy, and all that can possibly be characteristic or illustrative of the subject, will be closely attended to; and it is hoped that they will be found equally interesting as illustrations of our great dramatist, and as an amusing series of plates for a portfolio or table. As the plays of Shakspeare are not equally fertile in in cidents, the Numbers may occasionally vary in the quan tity of plates, and sometimes may contain two plays; but each Number will be complete in itself, and independent of the others. One Number tvill appear every two months, containing on an average twenty plates The number to be printed of the quarto, on India paper, will be strictly limited to ene hundred copies. Printed for T.

" What human kind desires, and what they shun, Ite, passions, pleasures, impotence of will, Shall this satirical collection fill," " The novel under this title announced for immediate publication, prefers, it is said, Ho ordinary claims to public attention. It exhibits, we are informed, the history of a young man of rank and fortune, who hieing decidedly of a satirical turn, resolves to gratify his favourite penchant, to ascertain the internal state of fashionable society, and minutely to observe human nature under every variety of shade and circumstance. Among other characters with whom he comes in contact, is the celebrated Brammell, who figures under the name of Beaumont : this gentleman arrests his particular attention and serves hint for a com plete study. The work is moreover illustrative of those sets or circus in the world of ton which have never been depicted in the pages of fiction, and respecting which so notch curiosity has been long felt. Report speaks sa highly of this new Novel as to place it on a par with 'Pel ham ; or, The Adventures of a Gentleman.' "—Evening Paper.

WILLIAMS AND OTHERS. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL hail to make an ap plication to the Court in this case to set aside the verdict obtained by the plaintiff. The action, which was one of a singular kind, was tried at the sitting at Guildhall in December last, before Mr. Justice James Parke. His motion was for a rule nisi to enter a nonsuit. The plaintiff had obtained a ver dict, with Is. damages; and the question was, whether on the present form of declaration the action could be maintained ? The declaration alleged that the defendants, Messrs. Williams, Deacon, and Co., bankers, had maliciously, and with the intention of injuring the plaintiff's reputation and credit as a tradestatm, refused to pay a cheque which he hal drawn on them, although they had sufficient funds of h;s in their hands at the dine. It appeared in evidence at the trial, that the plaintiff, Mr. Mar zetti, was in the habit of sending money to the defendant's house, arid drawing it out the same day; and sometimes he overdrew his account. On the day in question, about eleven o'clock in the morning, he sent in a small sum, which, with the balance standing to the credit of his account on the preceding evening, made up a sum sufficient to answer a cheque which he had drawn in favour of a gentleman of he name of Hooper. Between two and three o'clock, the cheque was presented for pay, merit, and the clerk at the banking house not being aware that any money had been paid in since the preceding evening, told Mr. Hooper that there were nut sufficient funds of Mr. Marzetti's to pay the cheque, but it would probably be paid when it came to the clearing house. On the following day it was presented again, and paid, the books having in the interim been made up, and the money paid in in the morning credited. Special damage was alleged in the declaration, but there was not the slightest evidence that the plaintiff had sustained any damage, and indeed it was admitted on his part that none had been sustained. The Jurv, under the directions of the Learned Judge, found for nominal damages, but negatived the malice. The plaintiff had suffered no inconvenience, and had sustained no loss of credit, the person in whose favour the cheque had been drawn having continued his dealings with him ; but the Learned Judge told the Jury, that if they thought there was time between the paying in of the money in the morning, and the pre sentment of the cheque at two or three o'clock, for the bankers to make an entry in their books, they should find for the plaintiff with nominal damages. Nov this was a mere case of negligence anti no actual damage having resulted to the plaintitF, the Learned Counael submitted that the action could not be maintained. •To maintain an action of this descrip tion, it must be shown that damage had resulted from the negligence, as in the case of a person driv ing on the wrong side of the road, and corning in contact with the gig of his neighbour and over turning it. In the present case it was clear that die omission complained of was accidental. The clerk to whom the cheque was presented had not been apprised that any money had been paid in the course of the morning, and the books had not. been made up. The alleged breach of duty was, that the cheque had not been honoured at the time it was first presented ; but he (the Attorney• General) was not aware that there was any general duty cast upon bankers to pay the drafts of their customers immediately. In a case which came before the Privy Council some years ago, in which he was concerned, it was decided that it was no part of the general duty of a factor to insure the goods of his employer, and thnt he was not liable to an action for neglecting to insure. In that case an action had been brought against a factor of the city of London for neglecting to effect an insurance on a quantity of sugar valued at 50,000/. He had kept up the insurance from three months to three months for some time, but omitted it the last three months, and the premises in which the sugar was warehoused having been burnt and the sugar lost, the owner in Jamaica brought an action against the representa tives of the factor, and recovered a verdict. A great many witnesses were examined as to the practice of insuring goods of this description, and there was a balance of testimony on that point. The question was subsequently brought on for dis cussion on a bill of exceptions, and there was after wards an appeal to the Privy Council. The late Lord Elenborough came down and hear] die ap peal; which was argued by the late Sir Vicary Gibbs, Lord Erskine, Mr. Baron Wood, and himself, the Attorney-General. There was great difficulty with respect to the bill of ex ceptions, and it was said that the Counsel ought to have moved for a new trial. At last it was suggested by Sir Vicary Gibbs, that unless it ap peared from the record itself that it was part of the duty of a factor to insure, the inure allegation did not make it his duty. The Court acquiesced, and inasmuch as by the common law it was no part of the duty of a factor to insure the goods of his em ployer, they gave judgment against the plaintiff. The learned Counsel submitted that the present case was anala , e ,ons in principle to the one he had referred to, and that by the common law, barkers were not bound topay the cheques of their custom ers at the moment they were presented. Lord TENTEEIDEN—I rather think that duty arises out of their business, and that there is an implied promise. The ATTORNEY. GENERAL submitted that there was mot any implied promise; at all events this ac tion was Not founded on promise or contract, but was one for mere negligence or accident, or rather for damages consequent on such negligence or ac cident; and where no damage was proved, no damages could be recovered. The present action was brought on the ground that the defendants in tended to injure the plaintiff, and the Jury had negatived that intention. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—Is malice an essential al legation ? Lord TENTERDEN—Does the plaintiff allege that he had sufficient money in the banker's band., ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—He did; but an alle gation that a party had money in his banker's hands, and that the party neglected to pay his cheque, ‘rould not, without proof of malice or special damage, entitle him to maintain an action against the banker for neglect. It was a mere breach of duty attended by no breach of contract. At the trial he (the Attorney-General) submitted that the plaintiff ought to be nonsuited, on the gro , lnd that he had not proved what he alleged. Lord Tr NTERDEN—You can now only move for a new trial. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL would move far a new trill, then, on the ground of misdirection. Lord TENTERDEN rather :bought that the Learned Judge (Mr. Justice J. Parke) was inclined to wish that the matter should bo further considered, Th.:ir Lordships would therefore speak to Ida between MANSION-MOUSE. On Saturday the young man, named EltiJit Bailey, who is untlerstood to be a Minister of the Independent connection, was re-examined on a charge of forgery. The alleged forgery was a bill for 101., which the prisoner had given for cash to Mr. Thomas Wilson, of Mutters' Hall: it pur ported to have been accepted by Mr. Cunnin g h m , bookseller, of Mile-end-road. In the prisoner's pos. s:::;sion were found several letters front Bishops, re fusing his application to be ordained. Mr. Cunningham deposed that he knew nothing. whatever of the bill. The prisoner had- dealt with the witness more than four years, and now owed him upwards of 6/. Mr. Thomas Wilson, of Pinners' Hail, deposed that the prisoner came to him, in the first instance, and stated that he was about to raise money to get the lease of a chapel in Aldersgate-street. He asked him for a loan of 101. The witness had never seen him before, and knew nothing of him ; but he told a plausible story, and produced the hued-writing of the Rer. Mr. Fletcher, of Moor fields Chapel, which induced witness to bal:eve hint. Witness, however, asked that some security might be given him for the loan, and the prisoner said he would give him a bill. The next day the priso,er brought him the bill produced, which hav ing the apparent acceptance of a tradesman, the witness gave cash for it. When the bill became due it was not paid, but in two days after the pri soner came and paid 31. 101. on account, and re quested that it might be kept back a few days.— The witness refused to do so, and said he should apply to the acceptor. The witness did apply to the acceptor, who said he knew nothing about it. Sir PETER LAURIE asked whether any other persons had charcr,es to prefer against the prisoner ? Herd field stated that several bookscllers had visited the prisoner in the cage, but they did In t now attend. The Rev. Mr. Fletcher, of Moot fields Chapel, had known the prisoner three or four years ; he had ever (so fur as the Rev. Gentleman had known him) acted consistently with the morels of the Gospel, though with exceeding eccentricity. He (Mr. F.) was applied to.by some booksellers to know whether he would become Pe curity for the peyenent of a bill for books, which the prisoner 7! . anted to have en credit. Mr. Fletcher, in reply, stated what he knew of the prisoner's character, but said that he would be security for no man, us he had suffered too severely already by being security. Sir NETER. LAURIE said that the plea of insanity was made on behalf of the prisoner. Had the Rev. Gentleman allowed him to preach le his chapel ? Mr. Fletcher said that he had permitted the pri soner to address his (Mr. Fletcher's) catecheticed seminary, which consisted of young persons ; but he had never allowed him to ascend his pulpit. The prisoner, in addressing the catechetical assembly, displayed greet workings of mind—but he showed too great a fondness for what, in Scotland, they culled " long-legged words," and such was the objection taken against him, that the Rev. Gentle man was compelled to " crucify" the prisoner's " feelings," by forbidding him to address them Sir PETI3I: LAURIE-Whitt evidence have you of hie insanity ? or do you believe him to be insane M. Fletcher—From various circumstances I have no doubt of his insanity. Besides the evidence of his general eccentricity, I can state that he applied to so many and such opposite quarters to be ad mitted uc a Pastor, that no man would do who was not insane. He applied to the Countess Hunting don's connection, to Mrs. Fry, to the I3ishop of London, and to various other heads of Christian. communities. Sir PETER LAURIE—HOW has be got his living ? Mr. Fletcher replied that he believe 4 he had lived with his father, who is a horse•dealer. The prisoner lived in a state of seclusion, like un an chorite, absorbed in his books. A young man who had attended the catechetical seminary, which the prisoner had addressed, stated that his extravagance of style was such, that they believed him decidedly mad. Sir PETER LAURIE —Many eccentric men are preachers, and not account e d mad. Eccentricity is, indeed, a great cause of attraction. Mr. Fletcher sad his chief characteristic was an ardent and overwhelming attachment to that office which was sought after by so many —namely, of being a Minister. The prisoner disclaimed any intention of defraud ing Mr. Wilson. lied he performed his promise of waiting until 'Wednesday for payment, the full amount would have been given him. In not doing so, he had neither acted us a Christian nor a gentle- Wan. Mr. Wilson denied having made any such pro mise ; one of the prisoner's friends had since paid him. Sir PETER LAURIE said he felt it hi 4 painful. duty to commit the prisoner to take his trial. The parties were then bound over to prosecute, and the prisoner wai fully committed. THAMES POLICE-OFFICV- On Saturday Pat Knight, otherwise Mad Knip,ht, was charged with punching 0.2 mouth of Ann Mun roe, a young Irish widow, against the peace of our Sovereign the King., and to divers injuries of the frontispiece of th.e said Ann Munroe, and against her dignity. The Offender was put to the bar, and preser•ted a funny appearance. He Tre s what the cab-driver called Sir Charles Flower, " a punchy fellow," with as much humour and legs as short as the worthy Baronet. There the " odorous comparison, ' us Mrs. Malaprop terms it, ends, for Pat Knight's dress was most picturesque. He had on white knee-gaiters besprinkled with Wapping mud, black velvet inexpressibl', a figured waistcoat, with blue coat, and bright buttons. His face was most round and rubicund, and a scratch on his nose proved an amazonian contest. This " punchy" man in figure and disposition was charged by the young widow under the following circumstances: Mrs. Munroe said that Mr. Knight came tc, her father's room and axed for his rint for one week. Then father replied, " By Jame, Pat Knight, I can't pay it." Ails:her Knight then becomes quar relsome, and uses most improper langavidge, ter Honour; and beease I tould him it was most un proper, he then punched me in the mouth whilst I sitting asy in my chair by the fire. Pat Knight, in defence, said he went far h s rint a wken Mrs. Munroe poked him in the eye with a key, and her father, who was a good fellow, would prove it, The father of the complainant was called, and admitted that tint waa due, and that Pat Knight wl;s a good fellow; but " by Janus, phase yer 'Honour's Worship," said the parent," my darter, poor thing., never struck him a bit at all at all. The Magistrate believed tint evidence, and or dered the defendant to pay two:lay shillings to the King for the offence, " Twenty shillnags t" ►cipon,le.l Knight, with a moat curiw:a expres3ion of countenance. "Is that OK, way they pay my tint ?" Knight, who k a small landlord, paid the tine and costs,
