Oa Saturday ; last one of the most furious gales ever remembered in this quarter, accompanied with rain and sleet, blew from the south-west. It commenced about eleven o'clock, and raged with unabated violence till past two. The Moray Frith at Kessock Roads was one t ast sheet of foam, and several fi shing boats were thrown high up on the land. The ship Laurel, of Waives, Alexander Marrow,, master, while loading timber at Lettoch, was driven upon the beach, and had her bottom and keel much damaged. About two thousand trees were thrown doWn in the wood of Dochfour,' and an immense number in the wood of Dunain. The waters of Loch Ness were agitated like a stormy sea, and beat upon the beach at Bona with such fury that the road was covered with the spray, and no person could approach the ferry. In the east, the torn pest also raged, and several trees in Ciw lor wood were uprooted.. Indeed, in all parts of this country similar effecta were experienced, and in the town, there was scarcely a house but bore traces of the storm. Chimneys were blown down, 'windows broken, railings, gates, and fences torn away; and with the falling of slates, stones, and rubbish, it was somewhat of a perilous task, even to those who could keep their feet, to pass through thestreets. House, standing in an insular exposed situation were pro portionally damaged, and some of our country mansions (Daviot, Ruigmore, Acc.) had their windows dreadfully shattered, and otherwise sari-red severely. Some noble, old , trees which ornamented the mansion house of Castle hill, were split from top to bottom. East of this almost all the cottages were unroofed. A gentleman who was anxious to travel on to Perth in his gig, den rosined to sally out, but ow getting fairly . under weigh 'on the High land Rce:ll,i be found it impossible to stand against 'the .storm, and was glad to abandon hie intention. A woman was thrown down in our street', and had an arm broken. We hive fortunately as yet heard of no other damage done: by the hurricane, which all epee in. Oeusideriog as one of the most violent ever knower here; and as even more severs, though less fatal, than the memorable Christmas gale of 1806, end the Martinmas storm of 1826. Wtmc, Nov. 22.—Our correrpondent writes as fol. lows:—" I am extremely happy to have it in my power to state that, notwithstanding our not having experienced such a gale since Christ►nas 1806, as that of Stturday last, no material injury has been sustained, excepting a few houses being unroofed, and ether trivial damage occa sioned by the storm. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 29, MOULT AND OTHERS v. MASSEY, ESQ. AND OTHERS, Lord TENTEFtDEN delivered .the opinion of the Court in this case, which was argued last week upon a rule nisi to set aside the noniuit.—(We hare be fore reported the facts.)—The question arose upon the construction of the Bankrupt Act of the 6th Geo. IV., c. 16. The plaintiffs sued as the assignees of a bankrupt. The Commissioners had made a pro visional assignment to 19ur persons, three of whom were afterwards chosen ussigoees along with three others. The four provisional assignees executed un assignment to the Commissioners, to the intent to assign to the six assignees chosen by the creditors, and the Commissioners then made an assignment to those six who were the plaintiffs in this action. The mode of assignment had been adopted in conformity to a practice which had been introduced in the county of Lancaster by the late Sir William David Evans, and the question was, wh e th er i t was s us , tainable under the Bankrupt Act. The Court were of opinion that it was not, for reasons which Lord Tcnterden entered into at some length, and the rule was therefore discharged. THE KING V. GARDNER. Mr. GURNer showed cause against a rule ob tained by Sir James Scarlett in the early part of the term, calling upon Mr. John Gardner, a surgeon, at Marlborough, to shew cause why a criminal infor mation should not be filed against him for vending a letter to Mr. Baskerville,a Magistrate of the county of Wilts, with intent cc provoke him to a breach of the peace. The learned Counsel began by reading the affidavit of Mr. Baskerville, on which the rule ' was obtained. The circumstances nut of which this application arose were these :--One _Wednei-. day in December last, Jennings called at the house. of Mr. Gardner, who was from home, and requested that some medicine might be sent to his wife, who was ill. Mr. Gardner's assistant mixed up some medicine, and inquired whether Mr. Gardner should call on the sick woman ; to which Jennings replied, " Yes, when he is coming that way." The next day a message was sent from Mr. Baskerville's house desiring some one to come to see the woman. Mr. Gardner being from home, his assistant, Mr. Ham mond, attended, and afterwards sent some medicine, and, as early as seven o'clock the next morning, Mr. Gardner went to the house, and then found that another medical man had, been sent for, and was in attendance. Some. time after this, Mr. Gard ner heard of some reports having been spread to his disadvantage, and he traced those reports to Mr. Baskervilie.. Mr. Gardner being desirous of having his conduct inquired into, caused a - vestry meeting to be convened, but Mr. Beskerville declined to at tend. Mr. Gardner attended, with his assistant, Mr. Hammond, who was examined, by the meeting, and they expressed their perfect satisfaction at the conduct of Mr. Gardner; who, in the month of April following, was re-elected surgeon to the pa rish. It was not until the 9th of August, in the present year, that Mr. Baskerville convened the meeting referred to in the affidavits. Mr. Gardner did not 'deny that at that meeting, which was at tended by only two or three persons besides himself, he had expressed himself with some warmth re specting Mr. Baskerville's conduct ; bee be had affidavits to shew that Mr. BaSkerville , o n this OA other occasions, used the most contemptuous ,cpc pressione towar ds We. ' One of the expressions which he used at the meeting was (addressing Mr Gardner) " You should not a►tend a dog of mine;" another, " You are a -- scoundrel;" and whet, he was going away (being then on horseback) he said, Gardner, you are a --- dirty scoundrel, and quite beneath my notice' He had used similar expressions to other persons respecting Mr. Gardner, and insulted him on other occas►ons. The Learned Counsel detailed some other circumstances from th, affidavits, and, in conclusion, expressed a'hope that the Ccurt would not interfere in favour of a perso►, who had conducted himself in the manner that Mr . Bfokerville had done, Sir J. SCARLETT addressed the Court shortly iu support or the rule.—.—Ruledischarged. -- - EQUITABLE SOCIETY OF LONDON. Among the great public Institutions of England, the " Equitable Society for Assurances on Lives and Sur vivorships," has long held a very prominent place. This magnificent Establishment owed its origin to a course of lectures read by the eminent mathematician, Simpson, in which he strongly recommended the formation of a Life Assurance Scheme on the principle of mutual contribu tionshii: Arcordingly,ln pursuance of this recommen dation, tbe Equitable Society was instituted in 1762. The, ignorance, however, that then - prevailed in regard tk the .beneftta of Life Assurance, together with the ail. .ficulfies riettessary incident to the infancy of an In stitution founded- on the' . principle Of mutual viten., sore, for many years retarded . its' progrens. At the end of twenty-one years from its commencement, the Aisurances did not exceed 720,0001., and the annual revenue from premiums, 23,0601. per .annum. When firmly 'estahlished, however; in public confidence, and secured by the possession of a considerable accumulated fund, and annual revenue from those casualties to which, in its earliest infancy, the want of a subscribed capital was considered asexposing it, its progress became astonishingly rapid. Indeed, the very want of a subscribed capital afterwards became the main spring of its prosperity.— There being no body of proprietors possessing a separate and distinct interest from that of the assured, the 'Society felt itself free front those pecuniary burdens sod conflicting interests attending the management of Proprietary Institu tions ; while, on the other band, the amplitude of its min resources presented a security more solid than the gua rantee of any subscribed capital, however nominally large, could afford. Thus unshackled, the peculiar excellence of i!ti principle became remarkably manifested, and the So • c'ety rose rapidly in public estimation. Each succeeding year added largely to the number of its members, as well as to its wealth, till at length, in 1616, an apprehension that its business might speedily increase to an unmanageab'e ex tent, led to the adoption of a resolution involving an es sential departure from that principle of its original consti tution to which it owed at once its greatness and its popu larity. fly this resolution, the profits or surplus funds of the Society are applied to the exclusive benefit of a cer tain class of members, who constitute a sort of proprie tary body within themselves; and thus the object of the framers of that resolution, which was to impose a check on the huskies* of the Society, has been effectually attained, by withdrawing from the public what had always constituted the chief inducement to solicit admission among its mein• hers, via. an equitable participation in its privileges and benefits. But although the overgrowth of the Society has been thus effectually, and perhaps wisely restrained, it may nevertheless be interesting to our readers to ba made ac quainted with the resources of this great Institution, so as to form an estimate of the value 'and importance of the principle of mutual contributionship, to which, as acicd on, it entirely owes its magnitude and pros perity. We believe the following to be an accurate state ment of ita assets at the last balance, viz. s. d. Stock in the S per Cents 9,960,000 0 0 Ditto 31i per Cents 400,000 0 0 Lent on' hlurtgages 1,829,859 13 .1 , Exclusive of floating 'Wanton '.e11,199,859 13 I This accumulated capital of upwards of eleven millions, proves very clearly the unprecedented opulence of the In • stitution, but it does not convey any adequate idea of its immense public utility. This. however, will appear from the fact, that during last year (1829) alone, the claims emerged by the decease of parties assured amounted to ... £827,920 5 6 And the additions from the surplus fund, to which these policies wet.* entitled, amounted to 1:6014732 16 0 Making in all half a million sterling, appropriated in one year, and by this single Institution alone, among the fatni lies and representatives of the deceased members. With evidence so palpable of the paramount importance of the principle of mutual contributionship, on which the Equitable Society WM originally founded, theta would ap pear, at first sight, to be some difficulty in understanding why those of Life Assurance Institutions, since established, should have recognised any other principle of constituti on . But the reason of this is easily understood, when the diffi. culties incident to the infancy of an Institution on this principle are kept in view. From the want of any no tuinal or subscribed capital to guarantee its engagements, which this principle precludes, there certainly is induced something like a feeling of uncertainty over the early years of such Institutions, and this is a difficulty which Can only be successfully encountered under very favourable rircum stances. In England, and in the present day, the institu tion of a Society on such a principle would be nearly hope less amidst the keen and multitudinous competition with which it would have to contend. But the Equitable, at the time of its formation, had the field exclusively, or nearly so, to itself—although, even with this advantage, the difficulties with which it had to contend were most formidable. We see, however, with what rapidity it pro . grtssed when once fairly established in public confidence. This very success, however, only now serves to increase the feeling of regret that the adoption of the resolution or bye-law in 1816, although probably rendered necessary by the overwhelming magnitude of its concerns, has restricted the benefits of the Institution to a favoured class of its members. Not a single assurance opene,l since that time, although fourteen years are gone by, has as yet become en titled to participate in the surplus funds. The public, therefore, cannot consider the benefits of this Inltitution, on its original principle, as any longer open to them. But an opportunity of obtaining the advantages arising from the important principle of mutual contributionship to their fullest extent still exists, althongh not through th medium of the Equitable Society. Our northern neigh bours profited by the experience of the Equitable, and for tunately selected that Society on its original principle, as the model of the first parent establishment for Life Assur ance instituted in Scotland. In 181 b, a Society teas on this principle at Edinburgh, under the denomination of " The Scottish Widows' Fund and Life Assurance Society." Like its great model, it was enabled successfully to encounter the difficulties incident to its infancy, by an exclusive occupa. lion for several years of the field for Life Aesurance, as the only parent Institution in Scotland, while it also enjoyed the great advantage of being enabled to. make a d►rect ap peal to the success and experience of the Equitable, se amply authorising those, hopes of ultimate sumo which its founders ventured to hold out, Nor hive those hopes proved fallacious. Although only fifteen years have elapsed since the institution of the Society, it has already attsined a much greater magnitude than the Equitsble did within the same period of time, It was long restricted by prudential considerations to the acceptstwo of very litnited risks, and yet it has already , effected as nuance to an extent greatly upward* of one million ster ling, and possesses en accumulated fund of 920,0001. s with en annual revenue of nearly fifty thousand pomade sterling per annum, The possession also of a large surplus fund is at onco the surest test and evidence of its prosperity. Already the additions exigible in the event of decease of persons assured prior to let January, 1820, amount to nearly forty per cent. on the• stuns contained in the original Wick* , and there is every reason to contemplate very favourable results at the ensuing periodical investigatiou. The additions made to the policies in the Eptitehk , opened before the original prinoiple of its constitution wee altered, vary from 521. to the, eq.:lmbue sum of 4,96/. per cent., according to the duration of the respective policies. Making allowance for the comparative differouce of the extent of field en tvhit4a their operations are carried on there seems every reason to anticipate an equal success 0,, the part of the Scottish Institution ; and if so, the lapse of years may witneter the same reret for riot having opened sn early policy in it, ns is often now experienced for ne, having taken advantage of the benefits of the Equitabl• Society, while they 'continued Open to The great ptoeperity of the Scottish Institution hithertt cannot be railed fortuitoos, for it arises from causes equall y simple as efficacious. In the first Pact, it was made a fundamental law of the Society, that the expen s es of ma nagement ehouhl not exceed a certain very mo derate per centege On the amount of business actually transacted.— This most salutary regulation effectually prevented, at the outset, when the business transacted was comparatively small, any contraction of debt to clog its future operations. and allowed the fund to accumulate at a rapid rate. I' must also here be pat ticularly mentioned that this Society has, like the Equitable, utterly discountenaneed the system of giving large commissions to eolicitors,and others through whom asiuranees May be proposed. From this heavy charge against the profits of their business, which many offices forms by far the heivicst part of their expense of management, th:s Society is therefore wholly free. In the second place, from the careful selection of lives, the rate of mortality among the members has hitherto been, and still continues to be, remarkably low; and, in the third place, the Director* have been enabled to improve the Society's foods at a rate of jolt - teat conaiderahly "}richer 41ian that assumed u the bases of the calculations., Whin to these considerations is added the fact, that all the tau.l sources of profits to Life Assurance Offices, arising from discontinued policies, advantageous Investments, and other casual sources, are at lean equally available to this as to other Institutions, (but with this material difference, in the application of these profits, that they who!!, belong to the assured, instead of being e:lclusitely applied to the benefits of a separate proprietary), it is quite evident that the legitimate benefits of Life Assurance cannot be carried beyond „those which are opened to the public through a connection. There can he no doubt, there fine, that this Institution, firmly established as it now is in public confidence, and forinded on a principle which, while the Society itself gathers fresh strength from every accession to the number of its members, at the same time secures to all an equitaWe participation in its benefits, must go on rapidly. increasing in extent end usefulness. Indeed, one of the most important of the duties devolved on its Disee tors may, at no distant period, oe to guard against those in- Convenieneee which may arise. from the very magnitude of the Society, so as to prevent the necessity, as an the case of the Equitable, of any departure from the original and sound principle of its constitution. If this Scottish Institution would establish an agency in London, there could be no doubt of its adding rapidly, perhaps too rapidly, to the number of its members, and probably the Directors, whose administration of its affairs has hitherto beep so efficient, are exercising a sound and prudent discretion in restrict ing the business of the Society for some time' longer within its own native field—at least in tekinc no active melanins for evending its transactions beyond it. ELECTION COMMITTEES. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Nov. 29. MAILLHOROUGII ELECTION. The Committee met this morning at ten o'clock, when Mr. Anast addressed them on behalf of the sitting Mom bees; alter some preliminary observations, he said that the fume question which they hurt now to decide upon was be fore a Committee of the House in 1827, when it was de termined, without hearing any evidence, hut merely from what Appeared on the face of the Journals, that the deci sion of 1717 was conclusive on the subject, and that none but those who haul been duly admitted burgesses were en titled to vote at elections. There wpb, no evidence to show that the right of election had ever been exercised by the inhabitants at large ; and he would satisfy the Committee that that privilege had been exercised by those only who hart been admitted into the Corporation from the 39th of Elizabeth down to the present period. It was denied on the other side that there was a Corporation, as no charter, showing that they were a corporate body, could he pro duced. But he contended r that the fact of their using a common seal, was a strong, though not a cogent, proof of their being a Corporation. Notwithstanding what bad been advanced on the other side, be (Mr. Adam) would show the Committee that this Corporation had a charter, granted by King John ; but, even if they had no such charter, he maintained that the Conouittee should presume that they were a Corporation' by prescription, from the fact of their having acted in a corporate capacity for two (sun turies. This Learned Counsel was proceeding to cite au. thorities to show that a charter might be presumed from long and uninterrupted usage, though it might not be forthc.nning, when he was interrupted by r Joum Waorreserr, who► observed, that, if they could produce a charter granted by King John, it would be useless to waste the time of the Committee in arguing about a prescriptive right. If you have it charter, ob served the Hon. Baronet, my illegal head can't see why you should labour to found your right on usage. Mr. Anam—But your illegal heed may not see that what I shall produce is a charter, and lest you might err by thinking that it is not a charter, I will endeavour to convimee you that a charter is not necessary in order to establish the right for which I contend. The Learned Counsel, after some further observations in support of a right by prescription, read extracts from the Charter of John, among which were these words—. We grant unto the borough of Marlborough, and all burgesses and men of said borough, exemption from toll." It bad been con tended on the other tide that the word " men" implied alt the inhahitsnte, but the same word was used in the Charters of Portsmouth, London, and Liverpool ; and the Court of King's Bench had decided respecting each of those places severally, that none but freemen who paid scot and lot were entitled to an exemption fro► toll. Sir J. WILOTTICSLEY wished to know how Mr. Adam could reconcile this? According to the laws of the Cor poration there should always be a Mayor, two Justices, and five Aldermen. Yet it appeared that at some periods the entire number of the Corporation did not exceed six. Mr. Arum could not account for it. The Learned Counsel having concluded an address which occupied three hours, several ancient documents and extracts from the Corporation books were put in in support of his position. The Chamberlain of the borough was thetieexamined, who deposed that the Corporation had eighty acres of land which they let out to tenants, from whom they received the rent, and that there were about eighty acres more of common lands, on which every householder had a right to send two cows to grate, The further consideration of the 'subject was adjourned at four o'clock until to-morrow (this day). Some dist ur b ances , took place at Mevagissey isat week, Where a 'shipment of grain was about to take place. This was opposed, some of the sacks were cut, and one tnan was seriously injured in the ecuffle.

Lord WYNFORD rose ta ask the Noble Earl opposite two epteetions. Ile had heard with great satisfaction the statements of the Noble Earl with respect to the determina tion of his Majesty's Government to investiode the dia. trestles and to put down the distorbencto of the counts y. Was it the intention of hie Mijesty's Government to pro w* the institution of any Parliamentary inquiry into the extent and chiseler of the existing distress; and was it their intention Mere additional power tis the Magistrates. for the purpose of enabling tbetn snore effectuelly to sup prows the disturbances ? OBEY said that he wee sure it w a s not n em . nary for hiM to asesure the Noble end Learned Lord. and their Lordships generally, that the distress which existed in the country had been the (torten* oultilict of the consideration of hi. Majesty's Minister' ever since their stioeseion to office. Ile did nor, how ever, .eoritempleie proposing such a Parlismentary Ciunmittee of Inquiry . as She .Nsible and Learned Lund hid alluded to, The Cernmittee whirls erns to he moved for that night by a table Afarquie, would pro llably throw contideraide light on some of the eirminis stances estineeted with . the existing (limeys. If, in the course of the investigstions of that Committei., a ranee, so neat Parliamentary inquiry ihenld be considered odyissrilc, lie should have no objection to its Wilt instituted.. With toped to the second question put to him by the Noble tied Learned Lord, It did not occur to him that it was neceseiry to give any additional power to the Magistrates. Er'en in the most disturbed parts of the country, the powers which the Magistrates already possessed would, he was persuaded, be found sufficient for the purpose. He was—be concerned that he watessaexcerdingly anions to abstain from extending the powers whit Width the Magistrates were clothed by the existing law, except in a case of extreme and absolute necessity. If such a necessity, however, should Heise, he trotted that he should not be found igniting in the deter mination to tame to Parliament, nod ask forwhatever,ca tension of authority the urgency of the case Might require. The LORD CHANCELLOR entirely concurred in,the sentiments which had been expressed by his Noble Friend. is his humble opir!ion, until the efficacy of the law in its present state bit had it fair trial, it would litt highly incr. pe tient to adopt any itew measures for the purpose, of putting an end to evils, which be biped anti believed would be passing and temporary. In the mean while every effort would be made, by putting into vigorous execution the existing laws, to suppress disturbances which were highly disgraceful to the districts in which they ite- caned, and whic - h were utterly Tuitions with rererrome to the veryobjeets which those who engaged in them had i►i view. There wits no truth more 1: ruilletA Linable than th it in proportion as the publle piece was disturbed the wisely of those who were unfortunately suffering &stress, at the present moment. was greatly 'mirrored in sievertif. Holding the responsible situation which he did, with refe rence to the magistracy of the country, he hoped that Noble Lords, who were at the head of the mr.gistraey in their teimetivi .ountier, Would take in gond part what he was about to observe. it related to individuals who were comprehended in the Csinattibmion of the Pence. For' lie from him the disposition M interfere with the rower and discretion of the Lords Lieutenant. The discretionary powers, so extensive sod important, which are inverted in them, they, generally speaking, exercised with a discretion and a judgment highly honottrable. Bat whit he wished just .t; hint was that there were, in various parts of the country, amity persons, whose activity, whose seal, whose talent, whose knowledge, would render them very valu able accessions to the toseistracy, bet who were net, et present, in the Commission of the Pace. fle did not allude to the disturbed districts only, but to the country generally.: When found that there were; hi many conn ect, toxemia possessed of Terri prelperty,' and he other re epode eminently qualified fur the' Magistracy,: but who • nerertheleart were not in the etenmissiots, be comic/ Attri bute the omission only to 'inadvertence; and was *ore that this suggestion would he enough to insure the admis sion of individuals so capable and se deserving of conidence. It would be an incomparably more agreeable connect& him if the Noble Lords in question would thus supply the omission theuutelvee. If, however, flint were not done, lie should consider that he grossly neglected the duties of the office which he had the honour to hold, if he did not apply himself personally to the *Weed: The Earl of ELI)ON observed thst the Noble end ') Learned Lord was fully invested with the right of deter mining who should, or who should not, be comprehended in the commission of the peace. Fur himself, however, he had the great satisfaction so say, that during the five.and• twenty years for which he had had the honour to bold the office of Lord Clieneellor of. Englaud, he was exceedingly indebted to the various Noble Lords who were the Lords Lieutenents of counties (and be now , begged to return them his thank') 14 their various recommendations to the Magistracy. It must be acknowledged that it was next to impossible that any Lord Chancellor could hirtnie:f know the merits of the individuals comprehended in the. Commission. In his whole experience there wits but one exception in which he bad not attended i 4 the recant mendation of the Noble Lords in question; and that Was when an individual had been struck out of the Commis 'ion (we think the Noble and Learned Lord said in the county of Durham) without the circumstance having been previously itibmitod to him (Lord Eldon). Now, although he had invariably attended to the recommendations of the Lords Lieutenant with reference to the individuals who should he appointed filsgistretee, yet, whenever au indivi du ti was once so appointed, It had been his determination that no Lord Lieutenant, or Custos Rutulorum, should strike that individual out of the Cemmiseion, without 4 previous reference tothe Lord Chancellor. The Lord Chancellor of England had initst, undoubtedly the power of choosing whom he liked to iricludoie the commission of the. pest.; but it was excemliogly.ininortent that in nuking hi s choi ce he should not lose the Nowa, of having persons room mended to him by therm whose local knowledge .(rive them the power to judge of character and competenee. • With respect to the disorders which so unfortunately existed in so man) parts of the country,: he woe quite persuaded that t! ere bad not been the elighteet indisposition on the pat of the late Ministers to Nile all proper measures for putting an end to those disorder.. It was u eery racy thing to blame persons for not doing: those seta which the very individuals who Merged would themselves not venture upon doing. Nothing could be more iinportrost. than I. use great caution on •sabjects ottentied, with so mash peril. It was with infinite eatiefeetion saw that special cowl minions were about to preoeed iota the diaturbeal enmities , . Why did be say this ? It was the principle. of she English law that justice should be imlininistered in Leroy. Nettling therefore enuld be more iteireble than .that the deluded peoyle should have these cenunissions sent down, to ex- Winn to them what the law was, and what was the nature of the offences which they were. committing. Way of them, there could he aq rloulo, were. not at all *ware of the der ea of criminality which they were inventor. In order, therefore,. that the . law rthoulti he edmieisteteel mercy, it was 'necessary that the law ,should be deeeribed and expounded.
