The Sieur Barbier Dufay, who has acquired an unfortunate celebrity, -was arrested on Tues day, and conveyed to the Prefecture ,of Police, in consequence of an event which presents very serious circumstances. The following 'is the re. lAtiOn: " Last Tuesday, about five in the afternoon; . an individual attempted to bathe in the Seine, near the Pont des Arts. The' gendarme on the station endeaVoured to prevent him, and the individual grossly insulted him. The gendarme-was about to arrest him, when the •Sieur Barbier Dufay approached, took the .part of . his friend; and most outrageously insulted the gendarme. The noise attracted the neighbouring post, who seized the two disturbers, wand conveyed- them tathe Prefec ture. The Sieur Dufay was placed in the Salle Saint Martin, where his rage exhausted itself in invectives; and his violence extended itself so far as to break every thing that Was within his midi. During the proceedings it was discovered that he -wore a pnignard from 12 to 13 inches long, richly mounted. The gend'armes having again seized him, dragged him to -the Grand Depot, where they were obliged to employ the most efficacious and severe means t secure him.—Nearly two hours after the arrest of the Sie r Dufay and his friend, a fiacre, which had been waiting sine the morning, brought to the Pre fecture two swords, a hat, d a riding coat, which they had left in it. The coachman declared that in the morning, he had coriVeyed,tothe Bois de. Boulogne three individuals, and that he had brought back but two. " FitENCII FUNDS.—PAItIS, J:ISNE 6. Five per Cents.

' LAW INTELLIGENCE.' COURT OF CHANCERY, SATURDAY, Juw 8. BANKRUPT PETITIONS. It will be recollected that on Tuesday last his Lordship ap 7 pointed this day among others, for the purpose of giving judg ments in various cases that had been londbefore the Court.— When, however, his Lordship took his seat, several Bankrupt Petitions were proposed for his consideration, as being of the most urgent nature, and it was hoped they would not be fur ther delayed, as they pressed severely upon the respective parties. The LORD CHANCELLOR. said he was as well aware of the ne cessity of taking . these petitions as any other person ; indeed he himself had received many communications from individuals, on whom this delay bore particularly hard, stating the peculiar se verity of their different cases, with which he was not wholly unac quainted. His Lordship said he was convinced that unless the Court interposed, and some fresh regulations were made with respect ,to these Petitions, . adjournment after adjournment would take place„—they would be made to give way to matters of the " utmost importance," as Counsel termed it, till in the end they would remain unheard. • Saturdays were set apart for disposing of this species of business, and that must be ad hered to. On Saturday next, therefore, the whole day would be devoted to the hearing. of Petitions. - The judgment in the case of Chappell and Cadell, which had been appointed for this day, was then further ordered for Tuesday next. The remainder of the day was consumed in disposing of Pe titions, and the Court rose at two o'clock. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Jume 8. • KILSBY V. WILLIAMS AND OTHERS. Mr. CAMPBELL moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict obtained by the plaintiff in thii case should not be set aside, and a new trial granted. It was an action to recover the sum of 2501, received by the defendants, who are eminent bank ers in the city of London, to the use of the plaintiff, who.was one of their customers. It appeared in evidence that Mr. Robert son, also a consumer of the defendants, in Novetnber last, gave the plaintiff a check for the 250 L in question 'upon his bankers, to whom he was himself indebted at the time in several thousand pounds. This check was sent in by Mr. Kilsby. on the morning of the 13th, at which time nothing 'was said as to whether it would or would not be placed •to - his credit •as cash. In the course of that day, Mr. Robertson prevailed on the defendants to discount for him bills to the amount of 1,5791., and directed them to apply the proceeds to the charges of the - day, giving the preference to certain bills from Manchester to the amount of 1,3431., respecting which he was particularly anxious. After the payment of these bills, there remained, therefore, 1361. in the hands of the defendants, applicable to the charges of the day ; but instead of appropriating this to wards the payment of the check in question, they paid, either on that day or early on the 14th, two drafts for 501. each, and some other orders for money. On the following day, Mr. Robertson discounted more bills, the proceeds of which amounted to 6941., and specially directed the application of 5931., which, after deducting the discount, left a ba lance of 931. for general purposes. On the morning of the 14th, Messrs. Williams and. Co. wrote to Mr. Kilsby, stating that they had not at that time effects to pay the check, but that they would retain it in the hope that Mr. Robert. son might be able to discharge it. Upon this evidence, the Lord Chief Justice thought that the defendants were bound to apply the first surplus of 2361. to the payment of the draft first presented to them and received without observation • and that they were further bound, by the terms of their letter Of the 14th, to appropriate a sufficient portion of the 931. the excess of that day, to the same purpose. This opinion was adopted by the Jury, and now contested by Mr. Campbell. The COURT were unanimously of opinion, that the direction and the verdict were right. When bankers received a check from a customer, drawn in his favour by another customer, they became the agents of the payee, and their duty was to, ap ply the first monies which they received applicable to the pur pose in its discharge, and not to give a preference to the claims of strangers.' They therefore refused the rule. THE ICISG V. HECTOR. In last .liilary Term Mr. Harrison obtained a rule, callin an the defendant, who is steward of the Manor Court of the Manor and Borough of Petersfield, to shew cause why a cri minal information _should mot issue against him for using his official powers improperly, with a corrupt design to favour the electioneering views of the family of Jolliffe, for one of whom he is agent and attorney. Mr. SCARLETT now showed cause against the rule. The imputations against Mr. Hector were scattered through forty folio sheets of affidavits, from which the Court were desired painfully to extract something amounting to a midemeanour.. The accusation originated with Mr. Atcheson, a respectable solicitor, who might have condescended to be a little more explicit in the charges which he called o,lllllr. Hector to answer. The. truth was„ that Mr.. Atcheson had accidentally visited Petersfield, and having taken an interest in the place, thought that he could Successfully oppose the influence of Mr. Jolliffe s: -family, of whom the majority of the respectable inhabitants held their lands; and that 'he found an opponent in Mr. Hector, who, having been seventeen years steward to Mr. Jolliffe, preferred the cause of his old patron to that of the re cent visitant. The charges—as well as he (Mr. Scarlett) could extract them, from the mighty mass of affidavits, which had Produced a most soporific effect on himself, and would, he fear ed, have the same effect on the Court if discussed in detail— were ,that Mr. Hector had not summoned a jury of Mr. Atche - Son's'friends, to present a Mayor, and that he had been present during the deliberations of the Jury. It was Mr. Atcheson's theory, that none of Mr. Jolliffe's tenants ought to be summon.; ed ; but he ilia not pretend to say that those who attended were not respectable in station and in character, and as fit as those who had been &chided. • What was Mr. Hector to do ? Was he to summon an entire jury of Mr. Atcheson's supporters ? Then he would be equally chargeable with "apolitical design. Was he to summon an equal number of the supporters of' each ? Then the jury would never agree, and there would be no Mayor at all. Ile .positively disclaimed all corrupt motives in the course he had taken : he had followed the practice as he had found it; and surely the feelings of ancient alliance and attach ment were not motives so very censurable, if, where a preference must be given to oneparty, he leant rather to the cause of those who had befriended him through life. As to his presence during the deliberations, it was sworn that in .this'respect he had only acted as his predecessors had done ; that he had not attempted to bias the jury, and had only given his opinion on one point of eligibility on which he was questioned. Mr. Atcheson had promoted three quo warrantos against successive mayors, two of which were yet pending, for the purpose of deciding the le gality of the mode by which the elections were conducted. And was he now, in addition to these, to ask the Court to im pute flagitious motives to Mr. Hector, who had introduced no innovations, and who, if he was misled, followed the exa m p le of those who had gone before hith ? It might be well for re formers to destroy the old'and accustomed modes of proceed ing, where they fancied they could introduce beneficial changes ; but they ought to be cautious how they appealed to the crimi nal justice of the Court, to strike those individuals who pur sued the course which had been unquestioned for a, long suc cession of years. Mr. ADAX, on the same side, was proceeding to argue that no corrupt. motive could be inferred from Mr. Hector's con duct, when The LQRD CHIEF JUSTICE interposed, and said that the Court would hear what could be urged- in support of the rule.. Messrs. HARRISON, GAsELEE, and COLT.MAN,'6IIS cal led upon, argued that the. criminal information Ciught to be granted. The charges were in substance, that Mr. Hector, for the last four years—ever since, indeed, the choice of Mayor, had been important to Mr. Jolliffe's family—had not given 4 'general direction to summon the jury, but had endorsed the names of those who were to be summoned on his precept; that this he had notdone indifferently, choosingmen of all parties, but 'selecting only those who were under the influence of his patron ; that he had taken the jury out of 31 persons, though the names of 42 others had been tendered to him equally competent to serve ; and that all this proved, beyond a doubt, that his object was to secure to Mr. Jolliffe the nomination of a Mayor on all oc •casions, who,,at the election for Members to serve in Parlia. , mentovas the returning officer. It was also charged that Mr. Hector was present while the _Jury were deliberating on their choice, in breach of the terms and spirit of the oath by which they swore to keep secret the Counsel of the Klng and of their fellows. So far from denying the ,whole, Mr. Hector denied only a small part of the charges distinctly made against him. It was sworn, that for four years he had selected the Jury with a corrupt view, to favour the electioneering interests of his patron ; and to this ,he replied, that in the last year he acted with no such view, nor sought to favour the election of a par ticular individual. He was charged with acting as he had done, on the contemplation of an immediate vacancy by the re signation of one of the present Members for Petersfield ; and a particular conversation was stated as evidence of -this expec tation ; he had denied in terms that the conversation was holden ; but he had not deified that there was any conversa .tion on the subject at all. Thus, swearing by the ckrd, he had answered only a part of the accusation ; the restremain ed silently confessed—" habes confitcutem rcum." The Ties tions arising on the quo warranto informations were quite distinct from that now in issue ; they were intended to try the abstract legality of certain modes. of election ; this proceeding Was - to inquire whether a public officer had not employed those modes of election with a corrupt design,. and 'abused them to the purposes of a. party. The. Court. were not, called on to de cide any political question, to favour any individual views; but to preserve the venerable institutions of the country from teing .perverted to the lowest iniLthe baseit uses:. The CouRT intimated that they would now hear the Counsel for Mr. Hector, whom they , had. before st.oppec;l. Messrs. ADAM and MERRiWEATHEit -contended that Mr. Mean-had denied every part of the charge to which his atten- , tion had been distinctly drawn. There was no one allegation Of fact which he had not refuted l but he had not thought` it ne-!' cessary always to deny motives imputed to him on the mere be •• lief of his enemies. Even. if the Court belieired every circuni stance urged against him, they would noffind any ground for ' I a criminal proceeding, but would leave the questions at issueto be tried in the ordinary course, which would answer every pur pose of dispassionate justice. The Judges consulted together for more than 20 minutes ; after which The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said—We think, if we were now to make this rule absolute, we should prejudice the trial of the quo warranto informations which are pending here ; therefore, we shall give no opinion on the case till_ the first day of next term. The Court were occupied'with'the case' till 5 o'clock. • COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, J - trriE 8. PUGILISM.-HUNT V. BELL. • This was an hction brought against the Editor of the MeV, Dispatch, for having publishetra libel on the plaintiff, who Is the 'keeper of the Tennis Court, stating, that he only exhibited at that place boys and raggamuffin ,s , and that none of the real " men of science" among the pugilists would in future attend to display their skill at any other place than the Fives Court. The Jury had been told by the Chief., Justice at the trial that these exhibitions were illegal, and they consequently, found a verdict for the defendant. • . Mr. Serjeant BosAsQuET now.moved for . a rule to she , cause why there should not be anew trial, on the ground of misdirection by the Judge, but The COURT unanimously refused the ride,' and confirmea . his Lordship's decision. The CHIEF JUSTICE afterwards sat at NisiPrius. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. 4 MATTHEWS V. REYNOLDS. Mr. Serjeant PELL stated that this was an action brought by the plaintiff, a widow lady, to recover a compensation in damage' l! from the defendant for a breach of promise of marriage.-- appeared that the plaintiff was about forty-five years of age,alla the defendant at least ten-years older. In 181.5. the former Ina' band of the plaintiff died, and the defendant was appointed of of the executors of the will. In 18•20, the defendant mat' e posals of marriage, and in the August of the following year eh tered into a marriage settlement, by which all the prapertyth e plaintiff possessed was settled an her, to be absolutely at he r disposal. In last November the defendant refused to perform his contract, and the present action was then instituted. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN addressed the Jury for the defend ant. He observed, that in this case no wounded affections nor, hopes of settlement for life had been blasted by - the conduct 43 ' the defendant, and he trusted, therefore, that if the Jury gay any damages, they wotdd strictly measure them by-the Min' sustained, which, in his opinion, was little or nothing. Lord Chief Justice DALLAS charged the Jury, who, afte r consulting for about ten minutes, 'found a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages 501. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS.
