THE LONDON JOURNALS. ItXTRACTS FltOM THE DULY MORNING PAPERS, October 31, 18'2'2. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The Greeks long cast their eyes towards Eng land as the tutelary power under which they might hope most successfully to rise superior to the difficulties that they should have to encounter in their outset ; and we have no doubt that it would he a work of little 'difficulty to inspire them again with confidence in us. They are aware that they can obtain from us what no other power can give them, and they have not to dread - from us, as they might have from immediate neighbours, an incorporation which ,would at once deprive them- of their name and political existence. The Turks, on the other hand, are only jealous of Russia, and provided they could secure themselves against . her encroachment,. they might be brought to renounce, at our solicitation, the title to sovereignty over a portion of their em pire,the reality of which they have lost. The extent of the Russian claims is known,and an-arrangement which should withdraw the Greeks from the Turks, and place them under our protection,could not be said to interfere with them. Austria, embarrassed as she is with Italy, would not think of opposing herself to the arrangement. Under our protection the G reeks would, in a short time, be able, by the proper development of theiv re sources, and the organization - and connection of file diderent provinces, to-bid defiance to hostile neigl►hours.—The Russians would be met by a more active and intelligent people, who would know by that time how to avail themselves duly of the natural strength of their country. It may be said, why should England burden herself with a protection of this nature ? This question might indeed be asked with some justice of England, has she not already burdened herself with the protection of the Seven Islands, and if she did not appear to be in perpetual apprehension of the occupation of Turkey by the Russians, or its partition between Russia and Austria. We have, in fact, already in the neighbourhood, an organiza tion which might easily be made to embrace the rest of Greece. , Of course it would be absurd in us to attempt to mix ourselves up with the affairs of the lonians. The direction of their municipal concerns should be left entirely to themselves. [TIII:• TIMES.] Rumour says, as we mentioned in our paper of yesterday, that the foreign troops are to be with drawn from Piedmont,. and are not to be with drawn from Sicily and Naples. The first or most obvious inference from these opposite deter minations would be,, that Piedmont was more dis posed to acquiesce in the old despotic Govern went:-and Naples less inclined to so 'de - basing an acquiescence. It must be recollected,- however, that Piedmont is nearer the Milanese than Naples, and therefore the domestic agents and instruments of the foreign - tyranny have aid , nearer at hand in the former country than in the latter, should danger arise : for as to the state of feeling respecting the existing Government in each country, and- the means by Whin it is supported, hatred in the utmost extreme prevails alike in the North and in the South of Italy. It is not, perhaps, so remark able that Austria should be content to govern on such terms, as that native Sovereigns should be found capable of so governing under her : for they are not her own subjects—they are not Germans whom Austria sends her military to. trample into submission; but they are Italians—. ihey are the subjects of Ferdinand IN., and - Victor Emanuel, over whom those Sovereigns exercise the hateful and precarious rule imposed by foreigners. These are paternal Governments— mild Administrations—legitimate Sovereignties ! [IIIOItNING POST.] We received French Papers yesterday to the 29th inst. They are barren of military intelli gence from either Greece or Spain, but contain communications which are of considerable im portance to both those countries and to the world in general. Those respecting Greece confirm tile change stated to have lately taken place in the intentions of the Emperor Alexander.— Count Capo d'istria,. the author of the work in favour of Grecian emancipation and still a Minister of State, though whilst the enemies of his country triumphed in the Cabinet he retired for a few weeks to the country-house of a friend in West phalia, is said to nave received a courier with dispatches of the most agreeable nature from the Emperor Alexander. But what is still more de cisive is the statement that orders had been sent to Baron Strogonoff to join his Sovereign imme diately at Verona. The intelligence from Spain relates to the proceedings of the Extraordinary Cortes, who voted unanimously and by acclama tion the addition proposed to be made to the army by the Minister at War. [BRITISH PRESS.] The Paris Papers of Monday have arrived. The fear of foreign invasion has called forth the energies of &pain. The Cortes have voted the extraordinary levy of 29,000 men, proposed by the Minister at War. It is also presumed that they meditate reprisals against France for the en con ragemen t and protection which she has afforded to the Spanish rebels. These Papers contain a let ter from Verona, in which it is confidently asserted that one of the first acts of the Congress will be to decree the evacuation of Piedmont by the Aus trian troops, and that this measure will excite no discussion, the determination having been taken in the previous conferences. The same justice, however, is not to be done to the Neapo litan people, notwithstanding the recommenda tion of England, who is represented as having re- Burned her character as the advocate of the rights of independent nations. The proposal made at Vienna to withdraw the Austrian troops from the territories of Naples and Sicily is said to have been outvoted, and was expected to meet with the same fate at Verona, if it should be re newed. It is. even asserted that Austria will augment her force in that quarter, and that a corps of observation wilt be formed at Ancona,' on the coast of the Adriatic. These resolutions having been communicated to the King of Na ples, that Monarch is said to have tnanifessted his displeasure by refusing to come to Verona, where he was expected, and directing Prince Ruff° to attend in his place. [NEW TIMES. The letter addressed by Mr. Bowring to Mr. Canning, which appeared in our Paper of yes terday, does not seem to require much re - mark ; yet to dismiss it entirely without notice would perhaps be improper. The only peculiar feature that we observe in Mr. Bowring's epistolary effusions is a peculiar self-complacency. in a former letter he informed the world that he was " calm and energetic ;" he now assures it, that he has " a mind stronger than all the strength of tyranny." These are very pretty sound ing words, especially when a man applies them to himself ; and we are glad to find that Mr. Bowring is so much of a Philosopher; but we really cannot compliment him with being an innocent object of dislike" to the French Go vernment. It may be true that their suspicions went beyond his criminality ; but he had volun tarily put himself in the way of suspicion, by taking letters clandestinely, and those probably either from or to persons whose loyalty might not be altogether unimpeached. Besides it must be remembered that The Chronicle took care to whet the edge of French suspicion by trumpet ing him forth as the friend of a Journal, which, as The Times says, (the Devil reproving sin !) " has been made the medium of the most violent and seditious attack on the French Government, and on the Bourbon Family." No, no ; it is very unreasonable in Mr. Bowring to be using all the abusive slang of the Liberal school, call ing the French Government a " tyranny"—a " despotism," and so forth ; and yet expecting from it such an excess of candour, as to dismiss him, until every possible suspicion has been fully examined, and found groundless. It is admitted that he has offended the French laws in taking a large number of letters clandestinely. I'Ve hope he will be lightly punished, if this be all his crime ; but he must not expect the French Government easily to believe that it i 3 all his crime. [MORNING nca.x.L.o. - 1 SpeCulations begin to thicken round the Con gress, as the period fixed for the dispatch of business approaches. No great reliance can be placed upon- the intelligence in the foreign Jour nals, where there is doubtless a strict ob servance of secresy. Some light, however, is thrown upon the matter, by the scintillations that are permitted to escape through the con tinental papers. Every arrival tends to con firm that the Emperor of Russia seems dis posed' to resume his hostile position to wards the Turks.—Several circumstances are mentioned in support of this opinion ; his recall of MM. Capo d'lstria and Strogonoti to his Councils —the former a zealous adviser of war against the Turks, and himself a Greek—the latter a person most obnoxious to the Porte, from the line of conduct he lately pursued as Ambassador at Constantinople. That, however, which seems most worthy of notice, is the probability that this relapse of his Imperial Majesty has arisen from finding himself checked in his designs upon Spain. PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. As recent outrages too plainly evince that there is a strong spit-it of Radicalism among the lower orders in the county of Suffolk, we hail time insti tution of a Paper calculated to diffuse better principles, and have extracted the following ar ticle from The Bury Gazette of the 30111 inst.:— " That the recent meeting of the Norfolk and Norwich Pitt Club should ex - cite the fear and ire of the opposite party cannot be matter of surprise to any one in the habit of regarding the good effects produeed by public meetings of loyal and well-dis posed persons. The fretful attempt to be funny in The Morn ing Chronicle are a ridiculous but natural consequence of a Tory triumph. It was not to be expected that the disciples and followers of Pitt could assemble to do honour to his me mory, without drawing down upon themselves all the force and all the fury of all the agents and advocates of sedition and apos lacy. But the hrm friends of social order'and upholders of the real Constitution are not to be driven from the settled purpose of their souls by such adversaries. The liberalism of The Morning Chronicle cannot awe or delude those wise and bo- . .nourable men, who, through good report and ill report, zea lously defend the Church and the State against all the aggres sions of treason and infidelity. If the Whigs, with the mongrel mass of heterogeneous theorists hanging • on, but not at tached to them, wish to obtain the confidence of the coun try, let them show in what manner they hope to serve the country, but let them not rail at the weakness of ad ministration, whilst the egregious stupidity of their own propos ed measures lives In the memory of any human being. Let them disprove, if they can, the almost universally believed assertion " That they are not to be depended upon for any assistance to their country ; let them make clear to the world that their talent is not confined to an unvarying censure and eter nal thwarting of the measures of government, but that they have amongst them ability to frame a measure likely to remedy some of those evils which the country owes to them and them alone. Let them never name Reform until they cease to traffic in the representation of boroughs, and intrigue for dictatorial nomina tion to counties. Let them forbear to brand the memory of e Pitt as the author of the French war and the burthens it entail ed upon posterity, until they can disprove the fact that, by ad vocating and disseminating revolutionary principles, by aiding the daring and abhorred effort of those bold bad men who sought to make England follow the example of blood-stained France, by causing the sanguinary ruffians who ruled in that miserable land virtually to declare war against this country by forming an alliance with the factions which Whiggism generated here, the Whigs and their appendages rendered a war with France an act of Self-defence and absolute necessity. Not to the good old King—not to Pitt—but to the partisans of revolt are we in debted for all the evils which a war of twenty years entailed. History will confitm the damning fact. The blessings of our children will embalm the memory of him who saved his coun try, whilst on " The bloody Neroes ripping up the womb Of their dear mother, England," the curse of posterity will rest eternally." A porter in the establishment of Mr. C. P. ARCHER, bookseller, of Dublin, came into posses sion, a few days ago, of property exceeding 20,0001., by the death of a brother, a clothier in the West of England. VERONA. • AS VERONA is now the place where Councils are holden which are likely to affect the ge neral interests of Europe, our Readers may be gratified with the following account of the scene of such important deliberations : " Verona is beautifully situated on the Adige, partly on the declivity of a hill forming the last swell of the Alps, and partly on the skirts of an immense plain, extending from those moun tains to the Apennines. The hills are adorned with villas and gardens, and the plains before the city are streaked with rows of mulberry trees, and shaded with vines spreading from tree to tree. The interior of the town is divided into two unequal parts by the Adige, which sweeps through it in a bold course, form ing a peninsula, within which the whole of the ancient, and the greater part of the modern city, is inclosed. The river is wide and rapid; the streets are narrow, but long, straight, and well built. Besides these advantages, Verona possesses one of the noblest monuments of Roman magnificence now existing—the amphitheatre, inferior in size, but equal in materials and solidity to the Coliseum. Its external circumference, which formed the ornamental part, has been long since destroy ed,w ith the exception of one piece of wall, containing three stories of four arches, rising to the height of more than 80 feet. The pilasters and decorations of the outside were Tuscan. Forty-five ranges of seats, rising from the arena to the top of the second'gtory remain entire, with their respective staircases and galleries of communication. The whole is formed of vast blocks of marble, and presents such a mass of compact solidity, as might have defied the influence of time, had it not been aided by the more active operations of barbarian destruction. Some idea of the vastness of this cele brated edifice may be formed from the extent of the outward circumference, which is 1290 feet ; the length of the arena 218, and the breadth 129. The seats are capable of contain ing twenty-five thousand spectators. At either end is a great gate, and over each a modern balustrade, with an inscrip don informing the traveller that two exhibitions of a very different nature took place in the amphitheatre some years ago. The one was a bull-baiting, exhibited in honour of the Emperor Joseph, then at Verona, by the Governor and the people; the seats were crowded, and a Roman Emperor was once more named in a Roman Amphitheatre with the titles of Ceesar and Augustus. The other ex hibition, though very different, was, perhaps, not the less in teresting. The late Pope, in his German excursion, passed through Verona, and was requested, by the magistrates to give the people an opportunity of testifying, in public, their venera tion for his sacred person. He accordingly appeared in the am phitheatre, selected on account of its capacity, as the properest place, and poured forth his benedictions on the prostrate multi tude, collected through all the neighbouring provinces. This ceremony presents a singular contrast to the shows and pomps exhibited in the same place in ancient times; in the latter, all was noise, agitation, and uproar; in the former, all silence and tranquil expectation. The French, shortly after their entrance into Verona, erected a wooden theatre near one of the grand por tals of the amphitheatre, and caused several farces and pantomimes to be acted in it, for the amusement of the army, which so awaken ed the indignation of the inhabitants, that they compared the French to the Huns and Lombards. From an early period in the thirteenth century, sums were appropriated to the repara tion of the amphitheatre ; even public orders were issued for its preservation and ornament, and respectable citizens appoint ed to enforce them, who were called Presidenti ella arena, which custom continued till the invasion of the French. But the amphitheatre is not the only monument of antiquity that distinguishes Verona. In the middle of a street called the Cor so, is a gate, inscribed with the name of Gallienus, the Ro man Emperor, on account of his having rebuilt the city walls. It consists of two gateways, one for those who en ter, and the other for those who go out ; each gateway is ornamented with Corinthian half pillars, supporting a light pediment. The whole is of marble, and does not seem to have suffered from time or violence. Verona was, anciently, of no great extent, as it was confined to the space lying between the wall repaired by Gallienus and the river. However, it is pro bable the suburbs have extended into the neighbouring plain ; a conjecture favoured by the situation of the amphitheatre,_ which, though at some distance from the ancient gate, was, probably, erected near some populous quarter. It is certain, however, that modern Verona is of much greater magnitude ; and, spreading into the plain to a considerable distance beyond the old wall on the one side, and on the other covering the opposite banks of the river, incloses the ancient town as its centre, and occupies an area of about five miles in circumference. Many parts of it, particularly the square called Piazza della Era, near the am phitheatre, are airy and splendid. Some of its palaces, and many of its churches, are magnificent; among the latter are the chapels of St. Bernardine and St. Zeno. Among the public edifices, the Gran Guardia and Museo Lapedario are the most conspicuous; the latter of which, surrounded with a gallery of light Dorie, contains a vast collection of antiquities of various kinds, such as altars, tombs, sepulchral vases, inscriptions, &c. formed and arranged principally by the celebrated Maffei, a native of Verona. The garden of the Giusta family, once so celebrated, is now hardly worthy of attention. It is situated along the side of a declivity, remarkable as being the last steep in the immense descent from the Alps tothe plain, which com mands a beautiful and extensive prospect of the town and the Alps." OLD BAILEY, OCT. 30. --,.- George Massey was found guilty of . demanding from Mr. James Lockwood, in a menacing manner, satisfaction for at tempting to commit an abominable offence. Shore, the constable, stated, that at the time he apprehend ed the prisoner, he used the fool threats mentioned in the in dictment, towards Mr. Lockwood, and acted with the most out rageous violence. The RECORDER ordered the convict to be called up in stanter, and sentenced him to seven years' transportation, and informed the prosecutor that the public were greatly indebted: to him for bringing the prisoner to justice. Thomas Ferney, William Whitton, William Leicester, John Curry, and Samuel Raven, were found guilty of steal ing in the dwelling-house of James Curtis, at Hounslow, on the 18th of September, sixteen sovereigns, four W. notes, three watches, and other articles, his property. The RECORDER told them it was not for him to anticipate the result of his Majesty's consideration of. their case ;_ but he advised them to think seriously of their situation. The trial occupied the Court until four o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CAPTURE OF A THEATRICAL CORPS AND THE AUDIENCE. UNION-HALL.—On Monday last information was given to the Magistrates of this office by several respectable inhabitants of the Old Kent-road, that a large floor-cloth manufactory, fitted up as a theatre, in Manning's-place, in that neighbour hood, was opened nightly by some strolling players, and that a great number of both sexes, chiefly young men and boys, were' attracted there, to witness the theatrical entertainment. In consequence of the above complaint, the Magistrate (Mr. A I.LE sr) issued' a warrant under the New Police Act for the arrest of the players, anti all persons that might be there assem bled, as rogues and vagabonds. On Tuesday night Robert Hall, the chief office?, with twelve of his men; proceeded to execute the warrant. Two of the officers (Gill and South) were sent is disguise into the theatre, upon an understanding, that before the. performance com menced, they were to subscribe a few pence each, when a plate was passed round among the audience to receive the subscription. The posse contnattatis on the outside, upon a given signal from those within, entered, and secured the whole of the corps drainatiquc, and also the audience,. about seventy ni number. They were all conveyed to the watch-house, and those of the audience who found bail were liberated, upon their undertaking to appear next morning before the Magistrates. The actors and actresses were conveyed in their stage-dresses to the cage, to gether with the whole of the stage wardrobe, properties, and decorations. Hundreds of persons were collected to witness the removal of this motely group to " durance vile." The scene was ludicrous beyond description. Yesterday morning the parties were conveyed in coaches from the watch-house to this office. The stage paraphernalia was brought in the rear of the coaches in a town cart; and, on a moderate calculation, 1,000 persons were collected to witness', so singular a spectacle. The Magistrates first ordered the members of the drama to be placed at the bar. They were then introduced to their Worships in their grotesque costumes, and on their appear ance general bursts of laughter pervaded the office. The ac coutrements of the hero of the Dunstable company surpassed, in their appearance, the best of these Kentish Thespians. The performances of the evening were Jane Shore and the Mayor of Garratt. The Magistrates told the unfortunate Thespians, they were to all intents and purposes rogues and vagabonds, within the intent and meaning of the Act. He should therefore order the actors to find bail, but should discharge the actresses, and also Petter the doorkeeper, who had acted thro ug h i gnorance . M r . Jerry Sneak, the Major, and Crispin neelicip, were then com mitted for want of bail. The audience were then brought before the Magistrates in different batches.—About thirty were examined. Some were discharged, others were held to bail, and the remainder well) • committed to Brixton noose of Correction for one month. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF SING'S BENCH, OCT. 30. WILSON V. TUCKER. This was an execution against the e7eTutrix of Mr. Tucker, late a respectable attorney of this Court, to recover a compen sation in damages for alleged negligence of duty in not in quiring into the validity of a security upon which the plaintiff had advanced money, whereby the latter was damnified to the amount of 210/. Mr. SCARLETT and Mr. D. F. JONES were for the plain tiff, and Mr. PULLER and Mr. COMYN for the defendant. The case was this :—A young gentleman named Freshfield, whose father had bequeathed about 50001. to himself and his two brothers, to be divided equally amongst them, being de sirous of raising money before his portion was payable, applied to the plaintiff and obtained an advance of 1051. upon the se curity of his father's bequest. Applying to the plaintiff' for a further advance, afterwards upon the same security, to the amount of 2101., the plaintiff called upon the testator, Mr. Tucker, to prepare the requisite securities, leaving with him an extract of the elder Mr. Freshfield's will, and desiring him to go to Doctors' Commons, to inspect the will, and see under what circumstances young Freshfield was to be benefitted. It was alleged that Mr. Tucker had prepared the security with out going to inspect the will at the Commons; and it turned out, in consequence of a proviso in the will, by which the le gatees were to forfeit all benefit in case they should sell or otherwise dispose of their legacies before they became payable, that young Freshfield had forfeited the gift of his father, and the security of the plaintiff became void. Under these circum stances, the present action was brought against Mr. Tucker's executrix. It was proved by a lady who accompanied the plaintiff' to Mr. Tucker's office, that the plaintiff had expressly cautioned Mr. T. to be careful in inspecting the will and as certaining whether there was any thing in it which controuled the extract, which he left for the purpose of preparing the se curity. It was urged in defence that the plaintiff' had merely given Mr. Tucker naked instructions to prepare the security from the extract of Mr. Freshfield's will, without any intimation what ever of the necessity of going to Doctors' Commons to inspect the whole of the instrument. A young Gentleman, named Webb, clerk to the late Mr. Tucker, swore that the plaintiff had only left an extract of the will, by which the property was bequeathed to the younger Freshfield and his two brothers, to prepare the security from that alone, and did not say a word.as to the necessity of going to Doctors' Commons to see the will itself. Afterwards the wit ness wrote a letter to the plaintiff by Mr. Tucker's dictation, in which the latter professed to transcribe the proviso in the will, but which was not accurately stated. The LOUDCHIEF JUSTICE charged the Jury, that it was the imperative duty of an attorney in every case to inquire into the validity of the security upon which his client propose to advance money, unless something occurs between him and his client to render such inquiry unnecessary. This case resolved itself into two question. Did the plaintiff inform Mr. Tucker of the ne cessity of inspecting the will itself ? for if lie did, undoubtedly the former was entitled to a verdict. This question would de pend upon the credit which the Jury would give to the plaintiff's witness, , as contrasted with the evidence given by Mr. Webb. Then, 2, Supposing no such express instruction had been given, were there any other circumstances in the case which dispensed with that general duty which the law imposed upon an attor ney ? If there were not, the plaintiff would still be entitled to a verdict. The Jury found their verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 2101. , --••••.-- COURT OF COMION PLEAS, OCT. 30. ROBINSON, ASSIGNEE OF HAWLEY, A BANKRUPT, V. GRAY. . Mr. WILDE opened the pleadings, after which Mr. Serjeant PELL stated the case to the Jury. This was an action to recover the sum of 400/. which the defendant had re ceived from the bankrupt to the prejudice of his estate, there being no account of the money in his books. The defence re : lied on was, that the whole was a bone fide transaction, that the ' money had been lent to the bankrupt about 15 months before his bankruptcy, and that at the time of the loan the bankrupt -engaged to repay it at the end of the year. The repaymant had been made without any memorandum of the year hav ing been entered in the bankrupt's books, and this naturally ' exciting the suspicion of the creditors, they had caused the de fendant to be examined before the Commissioners, when she so grossly prevaricated that they made out a warrant for her commitment to Newgate. Finally, however, she gave such an account that the creditors felt very little doubt that the money had been fraudulently received by the defendant under ' the name of repayment of a loan, in order to secure it for the defendant atter he had obtained his certificate. The only papers in which this loan was mentioned, was in the schedule given in by Hawley when about to take the benefit of the In solvent Act; and in a little memorandum-book which he had not given up to his creditors under the commission, but which had been produced to support this case for the defendant when it was previously tried in this Court. The examination of the defendant under Hawley's commis ' sion was read, in which she made a variety of statements in or , der to account for the possession of such a sum of money with ' out its being mentioned in her father's will. Mr. Mouchett a broker, proved that he had sold out property for Mrs. Gray, but never for her daughter, and that he was not aware Gray, her father, possessed any more stock than that men tioned in the will, and which the witness had been empl o y e d t o sell out for Mrs. Gray. Mr. Serjeant VAuGHAN, for the defendant, said he had never felt more anxiety than he did on this extraordinary case. He begged the Jury to remember that first principle of English law, that when a party comes into Court to claim a sum of money, he should produce such satisfactory evidence that lie should hardly leave a loop hole on which to hang a doubt. It had been said that the young woman, the defendant, had given such an account be. fore the. Commissioners, that not the slightest credit could be given to it. if this were true, then he must say, the plaintiff had no case, and was completely out of Court; for, if every thing she said was false, there was no proof that the money had passed be tween her and Hawley. The question to be tried, was not by what means she acquired this money, but whether she really had possessed it, and had lent it to the bankrupt ? It had been attempted to be shewn, that the defendant's father had not the money. It was clear, however, that if this transaction had been a fraud, the defendant would not have readily consented to 'Race the money in the hands of a third person, in order to abide the event of the suit. The Learned Serjeant concluded by observing , that the defendant would entitle herself to a ver dict by producing persons whose testimony could not he im peached, and who would prove that Mr. Gray had possessed considerable property, and that he always expressed his inten tion of leaving his property to his daughter. Jane Hawley, the wife of the bankrupt, proved that she had known the defendant's father many years, and the defendant since she was a child. In 1819, witness's husband was pressed for money, in consequence of having been obliged to pay a large sum of money to a bankrupt's estate. Witness asked the de fendant to lend her 4001., and defendant said she would con sider of it. In a few days she called at witness's house, and said she would lend Hawley the money if nothing was said about it. She lent the money, and in June, 1820, the money was repaid, together with 51. as an acknowledgment for the de fendant's kindness. Witness counted the money when it was lent, and is sure the sum was 4001. No memorandum passed between the parties when the money was lent; witness repaid it in her husband's presence. Cross-examined—Her husband was an uncertificated bank rupt. Witness had never represented herself to plaintiff's at torney as Mrs. Gray. Witness asked for a receipt upon repay ing the money, and the defendant gave it. Re•examined—She had never represented herself as Mrs. Gray, but had a receipt in her pocket given by the plaintiff's attorney for some business he had transacted for her husband. Witness produced the receipt, which was in the name of Mrs. Hawley. George Hawley, the bankrupt, was then examined, and sup ported by his evidence the testimony of his wife. On his cross examination he said, he had not given up the private memo randum-book in which this payment was entered, because his attorney told him it was needless: he did not keep an account at a banker's. John Hams, brother to the defendant's father, said, Gray told him, about seven weeks before his death, that he should leave his wife and daughter nearly 4001. Other evidence was given as to Gray's property. Witnesses were also called to prove that Gray had said he would give his daughter a few hundreds unknown to her re. latives. The case for the defendant having closed, Mr. Templar, the plaintiff's attorney, was called to contra dict Mrs. Hawley, as to her having represented herself as Mrs. Gray. The witness stated the receipt had been altered, for he had origintlly written Gray; believing Mrs. .Hawley'to be Mrs. Gray, Mrs. H. having represented herself as that lady. Mr. Serjeant V.Au GRAN replied to this evidence, and Mr. Serjeant PELL to the whole of the case; after which, Lord Chief-Justice DALLAS summed up the evidence. The Jury retired about half hour, and then returned a ver dict for the plaintiff—Damages 4001. The case occupied the Court from ten in the morning until half-past live. Alderman WOOD, M. P., arrived at the Turk's Head, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, on Saturday last. A party of Gentlemen dined with him the day following. AT REDUCED FARES, TO DOVER. pEAL.
