HIGH COURT OF CHANCERY. LINCOLN'S -INN, APRIL 4. GUARDIANSHIP. THE Petition of the Countess of ILCUrSTER tti be adutitted the Guardian of her infant Children, the EArl having died in November last,' came on' to be heard this day. It set forth, that in' the year 1778, the deceased Earl, under the authority of a statute pasSed in, the reign of Charles II: made a Will, - ap pointing the guardianship of his children, in case of his demfse, to his then Countess, and his brother, now Colonel STRANGEWAYS. His Countess, how. ever, dying a short time afterwards, he affixed a Codicil CO his Will, supplying his wife's place by that of his sister, retaining his brother as joint guardian. In-the year 1784, he married the present Countess; mild on the Bth of December, Igor, he affixed a fresh Codicil to his original Will, - and made the Countess.solcGuardian of his infant family.; by virtue of which she now claimed the sukrinten dance of all matters relating. to her four children, the oldest of whom was only fourteen years of age, nd the youngest an infant, born since the Earl's death. The Csiistzetttolt 'acquiesced k the legal pro. position, that if a man mapried, having previously made a will, and should die without cancelling it, leaving'no issue by such marriage, the Will would have its full operation, to the exclusion of his wife. We remembered a case of extreme hardship, which was iii point : an individual had made a Will in fa vour of a prostitute,' and had afterwards married a lady of great fortune : the Will, however, was not cancelled, and the party dying wiiboUt issue, the prostitute sweptaway the wife's fortune. A like case happened to Col. Watson, who made his Will in favour of a natural daughter, but going to -India some t ime afterwards,. he married a - LactY of great wealth. On his return consulted a military *end, who agreed with him in opinion,- that t h e *end, would, under all circumstances, give a wife h er t hi r ds, and in that opinion he rested and died, when the natural daughter recovered the whole of that money which had forMerly been t h e w ile s property. With -respea to the clues - lion before hlm, he had not the smallest hest. tioion in pronouncing " that the Earl's Will war not revoked by his second marriage; and as to the qUestion—whether the Earl's intention, implied by the Codicil of I Sol, had been rendered incom, plete, by the want of two witnesses-- - that would depend upon two points ; first, as it was neces sary-that a deed should be witnessed by two persons, in order to make it effeaive, and to take it out of the Statute of Frauds, whether the instrument re:. yoking such deed did not also require the same for. malities ? and secondly, whether it was to be c6n sidered as falling within another class or description of writings which the Statute says shall operate as a revocation, though it be not attested ? • The point ,at issue was a very important one, as it involved a very considerable property ; and as his Hon. and Learned coadjutors wished to weigh the point before he decided, he should take time to con_ cuter of it. 10 !t; DON : Printed 5/ MI CI At'the APRIL S. In a Cause Petition, brought by the London Dock Company, praying that certain sums of money attached to their conc er ns might be paid into this Court, the LORD . CHANCELLOR took oc. ca,kion to observe, that it had for some time past been the custom of persons engaged in undertakings of more than ordinary magnitude, to maki simil ar petitions, and that the praElice intreased every day, and became, troublesome. if, however, it. was ne . cessary such applications should be continued, his Lurdship did not see why the Court 'of Exchequer should not alsii be addressed in common with.the Court of Chancery, or the parties might apply to the Accomptant.Genetal of the Bank, who would be ever ready to transad their business, without making the smallest,objeetion. MANSION-HousT.—Yesterday, Mrs. Lou, Red man., and Bauman, were again brought before the LOR D MAYOR, in order that a further investiga_ tion might take place respeaing the fate of Miss levy's two children, mentioned in this Paper yes. terday. Mr. Norman their reputed father, said, that he was given to understand by their mother, that they died at an early age, and were buried in Bishopsga re Churchyard, and that he had advanced, at two different times, money to defray the funeral expellees. The place where they were baptized w a s also mentioned, but on searching for their re gisters in the Church books, no such names as their's appeared.—Mrs. Levy, Redman, and Bauman, were remanded for a further hearing. Norman was or dered to find bail fur his appearance when called upon. A most eingular discovery was made on Friday last, at Deptford. While a number of sailors and others were busily employed in unloading the car. go of the Admiral Apha, an East Indiaman which arrived at the above place a fortnight ago, from Madras (laden with sugar, saltpetre, and some bale goods), then being in the aft of dragging out of the hold some bags of sugar, they dis. covered, from a board in the hold of the ship, a green snake, of art amazing size, whose appearance was sa , terrific that it gave a general alarm, and it lying, well known that its bite is instantaneous death, it was found necessary to procure weapons for its destruction, which they completed by ty ing a spade to the end of one of the oars of the hoar, by . .which they severed the head from the body. It was as green as grass, fifteen feet tong, and eighteen inches in circumference.—lt is supposed that this- animal, in the night time t..)urici,ita way .on board the ship while lying at Madras, by means of.concealing itself in one of the Lags Of sugar, or Iliding on one of theplatiks into the hold, following the scent of the sugar. Its iii(e is always,understOod to be more venomous than k;le bite of a rattlesnake. Till following are said to be the particulars of an alarming ,forgeyy attempted tole pradised on the Bank of Lisbon ; and which, by patience, ingenuity, and perseverance, has been happily frustrated. The present offence, it is stated, comprised a scheme of magnitude far beyond the consideration of wealth, viz. a Plan to Revolutionize the Brazils, and ren der it independent of the Crown of Portugal ; which was to be effeded by the circulation of counterfeit money, and the dissemination of PAlNe's 14 Rights of Man :" though we cannot perceive how the means, in the hands of such agents, could answer the end.—The contriver is a Brazilian, Joze Borges de Barros, a man who is represented as -possessing asto. Wishing intellelual powers, but rendered dangerous to society by a base perversion of principle ; int& in conception, of indefatigable perseverance, and determined in cXecution. . Having for: former Thal _ pradices felt the scourge of the law, Barra: aimed at the total subversion of all order and subordina. tion. Fortunately he failed, and then turned his thoughts to forgery, and was deteded ; but owing to the misjudged precipitation of injudicioui inex. perience, he escaped with the trifling punishment of being sent out of the country as an alien. Despis_ ing danger, he returned, and renewed his depreda • lions in the associationof S,viverter. Godlia, a Por. tuguese ; John Farrell, some time since confined in Coldbath_fields prison, and a man named Cillikgron, who has been an United Irishman. In May last, Cillingtosr, and one John Fennell, were brought from, Liverpool on a charge of forging and circu_ lating small-bank notes; when, at the instance of the Gentlemen of the Bank, Gininglen was, from necessity, admitted as an approver against his com. panion Fennell, who was in consequence executed at Newgate or. the z3d of. June last. These four dangerous men proceeded in their operations till they, were deteded by the following providential oc . currence On.SUnday the rd of January last, Ills Excel. lency; Mons. DE LIMA (the then Portuguese Am bassador) 'called at Mr. BoNe's house, in Sloane_ street, accompanied by a respelable t-rademan at the West End of the Town, who stated, that by accident he had seen a printer casting off an immense quantity of notes, which he knew were forged notes upon the Bank of Lisbon, but of which the printer was completely ignorant. M. DE LIMA then re. quested Mr. Borvp's advice respeCting the measures proper to be pursued in an affair of such importance to the country he represented, observing, that as he had before unfortunately failed in bringing offenders to justice, under similar circumstances, he should be sorry, through any mismanagement, his endeavours were again frustrated; whereupon Mr. BOND re. marked to His Excellency, 11 that in matters of si milar description, success was only the result of caution, patience, and perseverance ; that no alarm Should be given ; and that the greatest care should be taken to •avoid apprehending the parties too hastily, until the whole.was :mature, otherwise, as they well knew- , they. had as yet committed no of. fence punishable in this country, they would despise the atteiript as they had done before ; but that if he acquiesced in the above, His Excellency might be assured that his wishes would be ultimately accom. pushed, and the offenders rendered amenable." M. DE LIMA expressed his cheerful _concurrence ;- and the. unwary Printer was privately sent fbr, who discovered that Farrell was the only alive agent ; .in consequence of which Farrell was watched, and every proceeding minutely and,daily'reported to M. DE 'Au& and Mr. Bost° for upwards of two months. By this report it appeared, that some Portuguese, in this country were the principal agents in carrying on the forgery, which. amounted to a. 0,0001. in Lisbon notes of 51. each, all of which were first intended to be carried by the Packet tp Lisbon for circulation ; -but it was finally agreed that Farrell and GU/it/ i ron should convey the notes to Lisbon, on board of the Antwerp' schooner, ot London, Groace Dtcxxilsota commander, in-which vessel they had taken their passage, and had each paid twelve guineas. In consequence of this important communication, M. DE LIMA and Mr. BOND con. suited together, and The following letter was dis.: patched to Lisbon by the Ambassador; immediately upon the Antwerp leaving the River Thames London, isth Feb. IEo3. • " In addition to my former letter on the subjeCt of the forged Notes, I now with certainty acquaint you, that by the Schooner Aniwerp, George Dickinson Commander, of the burthen of Q 9 tons, which sailed fr o m L on d on t hi s d ay , and is bound to - Lisbon, there are on board of her two men, named Yob,: FarrellandyinnerGaninon ofthc following descriptie n both equally guilty of forging about Boeo Notes of the Lisbo t i Bank, and which Notes you will find in their custody, as they are.earrying them thither for the purpose of circulation, to some person who has employed them, who will well reward them for their labour. • When you first secure both these men, and which must be done in a very prompt and de. termined manner, great care must be taken to prevent their throwing the Notes overboard, for •the purpose of sinking them, which they certainly will attempt, it they have an op. - portuni!y, and unless their hands arc first secured to prevent it. It 16 probable they may conceal the Notes in the linings' of some of their doubt they wear, all of which should be most scrupulously examined, even ;heir shirts, shoes, stock.. lags, hat, &c. &c. as well as their cloaths, and every thing else contained in their packages, boxes, and trunks ; and all which packases, boxes, and trunks, should likewis e b e care f ully examined, to discover any private drawer or concealment s they may have." [Then follows a description of both.] _ The Antwerp sailing from the River rhames on Tuesday, the rsth of February, arrived in the Downs on the following morning, where she was detained sixteen clays by contrary winds; she then sailed with Farrell and Gillington, whose surprize and consternation can be easier imagined than de scribed, when, on entering the port of Li s b on , on the 16th of March last, the Police Officers came on board, and, by strictly pursuing the instruetions sent them from London, Farrell and Gillington were secured, and forged Notes to the amount of 4o;000l. found on the person of the latter, and in a private drawer at the bottom of one of their trunks. M. DE LIMA being at this period succeeded in the Ern bassy to this Court by the Chevalier DE SOUZA CouTr!Nuo, his Exrellency received, on Wednes. day last advices of the proceedings of his Govern ment at Lisbon, which fully corroborated the before. mentioned particulars. Mr. BOND in consequence gave direCtions for the apprehension of joie Bowl de harm and Saver ttr Uodtia, and in the possessi o n o f G 0.114 the re mainder of theJorged notes were found, together with moo others, which 'had proved defeetive. A man named Alexander Assupard de Barros has been apprehended at Lisbon, of whose, connection iii this transaflion there can be' no doubt; from letters with his signature found - !in the posieision Of Borges. It is worthy of remark, that among some snuff in a paper which Gillington had, were traces of a plan of the dimensions of the City of Lisbon repiesenting Ribeira Nova (or wharfs), as far as the Arsenal and the streets, by which plan (the dispatch states) it is wonderful how easily Gillington, who had never been in Lisbon before, marked in writing the streets, squares; public buildings, and houses, for . which he was .to inquire, and confessed that this plan was given him by Borges ,de Barros, that it might not be known he was in alliance with AMU. pard de Barros, for whom •he was principally to search. The dispatch from Lisbon farther state's,. that the vessel in which the forged Notes were found, together with the• cargo, is likewise de tainvd. Thus a scheme, ingeniously planned and fraught with destrudion to commercial' credit, has, by pru dence and caution; been most happily defeatedi and from the indefatigable exertions of M. Da LIMA, the Chevalier DE SOUZA, and Mr. BOND, they are intitled to the grateful thanks of their respeetive countries. Last Wednesday a decree passed the Legislative Pady of France, for a gold and silver coinage. The silver pieces are to be quarter francs, half francs, three quarter francs, two franc pieces, and five franc pieces. The .franc is to contain five grammes, of which nine-tenths arc .to be pure silver, and one tenth alloy. The gold coinage is to be of twenty and forty franc piece's, each having nine-tenths of gold and one-tenth of alloy. The copper pieces will be those of two hundredths, three hundredths, and five-hundredths of a franc. These coins are to } bear on one side the head of the FIRST CONSUL, with • the legend, " flotrati4tvra, First Consul;" and on the ether the value of each, surrounded by two branches of olive, with the legend " French Re public." The five franc pieces are to have the le gend, " God proteels-France." . The 7ourssal de Paris of the list, contains the following paragraph : It has been discovered at Hamburgh, that an order had been given to a manufaCfory of firearms at Thuringes, for 30,000 muskets of the French Model, and that 30,000 florins - of the value had been paid in advance. The apparent and pretended purchase is the Slave Trade. The faft, that such a speculation has been made is ascertained, but its avowed purpose is evidently seppositious. It can.: not be imagined, , that so considerable a quantity of arms can be employed in a . branch of traffic, to which a great variety of merchandize, and but a small quantity of the same articles, are generally necessary'. .There is reason to believe, that the intention of ;he speculators, was to furnish the oceans of defence and destruction; to the revolted Negroes of St. Domin. go ; and more than one eircnmstance renders it pro.; bable, that these:Speculators are Anglo-Americans." On Thursday se'nnighta another iffion was brought before His Majesty's Justices of the Peace for, the County -of Durtibarton, by Messrs. Wm. Stirling and Sons, against certain operative printers, , in the employment of the Pursuers, -for contraven ing the Afts of the 39th and 40th Geo. 111. It has long been the practice _among the operative calico printers, to exael certaitt. sums, under the denomination .of. footings or entries, from every Apprentice bound to the -Ptoprietors of printing grounds, and these sums, were spent in drink, much to•the prejudice of the health and morals of the workmen.. The pursuers finding these exactions had been raised to so great an amount, ahat.they had a&ed as a total prohibition -to the introduction of Apprentices, and thus, by reducing the . numberof hands, to render the interests of t h e Masters in a great degree subservient to the views of the ope ratives—The pursuers, therefore, were under the necessity of issuing stria orders at their piloting. grounds, that this praCtice should be abandoned, and took in an Apprentice -upon the express condition that he should not pay any entrance money, other wise forfeit his indenture. The operatives, bow. ever, in open defiance of these cyders, insisted upon the boy's paying the usual sum, amounting in all to between four and five pounds sterling, and, by inti midation, they at last.airevailed upon him to com ply with their, unjust demands. These fats being completely established, the defendants - were sen tenced by the justices to one month's imprisonment in the. Count y. jail.
