THURSDAY, _NOVEMBER 14, 1822. - . at law. - In .the present case, immediate relief was not prayed, but only that the deed might be ordered to be delivered up.— Before the decision of Lord Hardwicke could be made appli cable here, it must be shewn that the deed in question was void at law. It was to be regretted that such a suit had ever been brought before the Court. Mr: LoVITT said, that this client was disposed to act with fairness; he had 'offered to take the children and maintain them: The VicE- - CHaarettr.oa observed,. that •he had no doubt the defendant acted according to his consience ; but he thought few persons would choose to have their consciences measured by his. The principle upon which Lord Hatdwicke's judgment proceeded was, that the Court would not encourage immorality; but the Court never hesitated to carry into execution a deed by which a single man made provision for a woman whom he had formerly cohabited with. ' It was singular that the Court would encourage those transactions with respect to a single man which they reprobated with respect to a man who was married. There certainly was a shade of difference in the morality of the two cases ; but they were both immoral, and he apprehended the Court did not sit there to define shades of immorality. His Honour then directed the case to stand over, on the understand ing that the general demurrer would be overrulled with liberty to demur on parole, in order that thc.question might be fully argued. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 13. LIBEL.—.POLITICAL DICTIONARY. THE KING V. DOLBY. Mr. Eva/is moved for a rule to shew cause why the verdict of guilty in this case should not be set aside, and a new t ial granted. The ground of objection at this trial was, that the Tales Jury had been returned by the Coroner, who had taken time to choose and deliberate before he returned the Jurors, who were his own choice and nomination, instead of being called in instanter de circumstantibus. His motion was founded on the statute 42d Edward 111. which prescribei the' mode in which Jurors should be chosen. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE asked if the defendant was in Court, but no answer was returned. Mr. EVANS proceeded. Under this statute, chap. IL in 2d Hawkins, p. 77, sect. 21, it was held this statute as well ap plied to writs of Nisi Pnus as criminal cases—that no list of Jurymen could be returned unless reviewed by the defendant. According to this statute, it was clear the return of the Coroner was wrong. Mr. Justice BAILEY—You say he had no right to have per sons in attendance, but should have chosen them from persons in Court de cireurnstantibus. Mr. Evales--Certainly. The distinction was in cases of fe lony—the Jurors might be peremptorily challenged. He con tended the law gave no power to summon. 111 r. Justice BAY LEY—He must return persons qualified to be in attendance. Suppose a Special Jury returned by the Sheriff, he must -return a panel. ' Mr. Evasts—ln the 7th and Bth William 111. cap. 32, and by the statute 42d Edward 111. intended to guard against par tiality, the Sheriff.= Coroner selecting aJury de circuntstuntibus, • by that means would not know who were to be upon the Jury, and in that case the defendant had a fair chance. The express object of those statutes was to guard against partiality and in justice. This was a question of importance to the country, and their Lordships, in the decision of this day, would preserve the purity of trial by Jury as it ought to be handed down to pos terity. He contended if the Sheriff had the power of return ing such Jury as he chose, this might be fraught with great injustice. - Mr. Justice BA.YLEY—Is not the Cormier sworn to discharge his duty with- impartiality ? There is, therefore, something very harsh in charging that officer with injustice. Mr. Justice BEST—He is besides chosen by the Freemen of ghe County ; to charge him with partiality, therefore would be reat injustice. Mr. Evasfs—lt is no injustice, my Lords, in charging him with partiality, the charge is applicable to human nature. If Judges may be partial, why not a Sheriff or Coroner ? It is not that these are partial, but the object of the law is to guard against the frailty of human nature.—(Laughter.)—After Ju rors returned by the Sheriff; or Master of the Crown Office, and rejected upon the defendant's challenge, the same Jurors might be again returned by the,,Coroner, and set upon the trial. The LORD CniEr JUST ICE—It appears the Special Jury was in the first instance objected to, as returned by the Sheriff; on account of the Sheriff being alleged not indifferent. and in consequence a Jury was directed to be returned by the Coroner, upon application of Dolby, the defendant. Air. EVANS denied that the defendant objected to the Spe.; dal Jury, only to the tales. In the King and Edmunds (4th Barnewall and Alderson), it was objected by the Court, that defendant could not challenge the arraignment of a Special Jury. Mr. Justice BAYLEY.—What you contend upon the last trial is, that the Special Jury ought to be returned by the Sheriff, but the tales by the Coroner. - Mr. Evasrs proceeded.—Without the challenge of the de fendant, the return of the Coroner plight be the same as had been returned by the Sheriff, and rejected. He trusted the' Court would give the defendant the benefit of hiS objection,' without putting him to the necessity of bringing a Writ of Error. Mr. Justice HOLROYD thought it was sufficient if the re. tnrn was directed to be made by an indifferent officer. Mr. EVANS proceeded.—ln 4th Barnewall .and Alderson, 171, the objection was decisive. The Sherifn Gairatt and Ve nables were subscribers to the Constitutional Association, and therefore could not impartially return a Jury, they being pro seetitors. Mr. Justice BAYI.EY observed, that the King v. Edmunds did not decide that the Sheriff might not ream Jurors quali fied to serve, only that he could not return the array. Mr. EVANS contended the array might be challenged if re turned by an unindifferent officer. The party was entitled to be tried by the country as distinct from persons ' chosen, who might be tainted with feelings of political party ; and unless the Jurors appointed to try were p ersons free from all suspi cion of being tainted with bias of pOlitical party, it was im possible to say a defendant had animpartial, disinterested, or a fair trial, especially upon questions of a political nature as this was, prosecuted by a violent political party. The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE observed, he thought still, as he did at the time of the trial, that there was no weight in the defendant's objections now brought before the Court; but feel ing, with the rest of the Court, that every thing which related' to trial by Jury was of the greatest importance, and as 'every ob jection taken to the pure administration of this important branch of criminal justice, and as to the requisite pUrity and' impartiality of jurors, required the fullest considetation, The Court, therefore, granted a rule to show cause. BREACH OP PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. SEYMOUR v. GARTSIDE. Mr. WIT.I.I.A3tS moved in this case, which was tried at the SoMerset Assizes, for a rule to chew cause why the verdict of 40s. daMageS in this case should not be set aside, and -a non suit entered, upon the ground that it was not proved, as set forth in the declaration, that he had either refused to marry her, or to Contract marriage with any other ;: and the defendant pleaded, that he denied haying broken'the promise, and that he was still ready and willing to marry her ; when called upon so" to do.—(Laughter.) • Lord CHIEF J us:rim—lt is not the business of the woman to call upon him to marry her. It is his business to perform his promise, by asking her to be married; and then thin action, which is for non-performance of contract, - will be abated upon 'the marriage taking place. The Court rejected the application. BOWLEY v. B ROUGIL This was an action to recover daMages'for an assault. The defendant pleaded in justification, that the plaintiff was rioibus and disorderly in his house, and theicfpre he 'turned him out. The plaintiff is the .sOn a an auctioneer, in Catherine -street, Strand ; and, ,tl4 'defendant keeps the Swan , Burystrecti St. Jarnees. early part of this year',' the plaintiff and a friend, on their return to town from Chelsea, called at the de fendant's house, and having" made free by stirring the fire, the landlord complained of their behaviour, refused` to draw beer !for them, and after some dispute turned th e plaintiffout 'of the house. The 'Jury found.a verdict for the defe n dant. • Mr. CHITTY this day moved to set aside the'verdict, on the ground that the'defendant had not proved his justification. it wasthe first time he 'Wad beard that Stirring the tire in a public house was justification of an assault committed by the landlord. . Mr. SCARLI;TT said he had.sonie ieeollectlon that 'the Lord Chief Justice, who tried the cause, intimated to the 31:ay that the jurisdiction was not prOved. The CluEr Jugrack had.no recollecticin that he charged the Jury,in theway the Learned Counsel had stltted.'

The LORD 6AScii.Lon, in the course of his übservntions yesterday upon the letter sent by, Lady Portsmouth to Lord Portsmouth, did not threaten to commit her Ladyship as repre; sented in some reports. His Lordship only expressed a wish that the circumstance would beexPlained in Lady Portsmouth's affidavit, and added, that if certain attempts were made to ob tain possession of Lord Portsmouth's person, it would be a Contempt of. Court, such as had in other' cases been visited with commitment to the Fleet. The LORD CHANCELLOR. this morning ordered that Dr. Ainslie might visit Lord Portsmouth in company with any of the four medical men ivhd had formerly visited his Lordship. But. Dr. Ainslie mist previously have read all the affidavits in the cause; and for that purpose it was necessary that it should be known how early the affidavits to be sworn on the part of the defence would be filed. Mr. HORNE said he thought they would be filed in the course of to-morrow. The Lotus CHANCELLOR said it might be arranged be tween the parties whether the cause should be proceeded in on Monday, or an what subseqttent day. In the course of the day, we understood that Dr. Ainslie's consent to visit Lord Portsmouth was obtained, and that Sir George Tuthill is to accompany him. ' CONTEMPT.—LEES V. AINSWORTH. Mr. WAKEFIELD stated, that the defendant in this case had not been aware that Miss Lees was a ward of that Court, and that now he was ready to make a suitable settlement upon her. The Loan CHANCELLOR said, that if he meant only to settle her own fortune upon her, that was no more than the Court would have provided for in any circumstances. The case must stand over until Mr. Ainsworth should advise with his friends, and ascertain what settlement he could make be. sides the lady's fortune. The case was ordered to stand over accordingly. There was no interest in the bankrupt petitions which were heard during the rest of the day. VICE-CHANCELLORS COURT, Nov. 13. • RATTLY v. LATHAM., This was a suit instituted by the plaintiff, Mrs. 'ltaly, and her four childfen, for the production of a deed hi the possession of the defendant. The cirumstances of the case are these : The plaintiff had formerly cohabited with the defendant, and borne four children to him. The defendant, who was a mar ried man, executed a deed in which he made provision for the plaintiff and her children. Thig deed was placed in the hands of a third party, who had since delivered it up to the defendant, who insisted in retaining it. Mr. BELL, on the part of the defendant, said that his client had put in a demurrer on the ground that the transaction upon which the deed was founded was of an immoral character ; and that the Court would not 'enforce any agreement which rested upon an immoral consideration. Mr. LOVITT, 'who was on the same side, cited the case of Priest and Bullock, in Vesey 2, the circumstances of which, he said, were similar to those of the present suit. Lord Hard wicke, before whom the cause was argued, declared that a Court of Equity would never enforce the execution of a deed made by a married man in favour of a woman with whom he had coha bited, if it should appear that the woman knew at the time that he was married. The VicE-CnAgcELLon could not understand the equity of Lord Hardwicke's decision. Surely it could not be main tained that it was not equitable for a man to make provision for a woman whom he had ruined, after cohabitation had ceased. The VICE.CHANCELOR asked whether it was meant to be asserted that a married, man had never been a party in any of the cases in 'which the Court had enforced the execution of deeds drawn up under similar circumstances to that at present in question ? Mr. LOVITT said, he had carefully searched for all the cases of the present description which had come under the considera tion,of the Court. Most of the cases had come before the Court upon applications to have, the deedS cancelled. The Court had always refused the application, alleging that the plaintiff's im proper conduct rendered him undeserving of relief. In no case, however, front the first ito the last, that had come to hir knowledge, and, he. had searched carefully, bad the Court eves held that a deed executed by a married man 'under such cir cumstances as that in the presentrase was valid. Lord Hard wicke's decision was quoted by Sir Sainnel Romilly and Mr. -Bell in the House of Lords, in. opposition to a bill similar to the present. The Lord Chancellor alluded to it without im 'pugning its'doctrines, which was backed by the opinion of the present Master of the Rolls. ' TheVicE-CHANcELLon observed, that he had been look ing at the case alluded to, and th9glit it was not analogous to the present. In the former case, immediate relief was prayed. and the Court.refused it on the, ground: that the deed was void , It Na A !, - - . 470 , .' ' !, • • 'IA, - .

The question came from the Assizes, in the form of a special case, and the judges' had to decide whether the defendant had been elected to the office by persons qualified. It appeared that he was elected by the Commissioners of the Court of Requests; and, under all the circumstances, it became a question whether those Gentlemen were resident householers in Bristol, duly qualified to Yote•at the election of the defendant. The case was ably argued by Messrs. SELWYN and ADAMS, and the Court took time to consider their judgment. THE KING v. JAQUES. The defendant at the rising of the Court, asked the Judges whether it was convenient to proceed with his case. He was in attendance to receive judgment for practising as an attorney without qualification. He urged the hardship of keeping him so long in attendance. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said his cause, if possible, would be taken to-morrow. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 13.. Sittings in Banco. The Court did not meet tihtil nearly twelve o'clock, having been occupied up to that hour in the Exchequer Chamber. After going through several cases, none of which were of any interest, save to - the parties concerned, it was found too late to hear the farther arguments in the case of St. John v. Champ neys, which' Were deferred to a future day.—The Court rose soon after two. PREROGATIVE COURT, Nov. 13. THE RING v. TAYLOR AND OTHERS. Of this case we presented a short outline in our Paper of Thursday last. It arises out of a caveat entered by the Law Officers of the Crown, • against the admission to probate of the will of Mr. J..Ruffin, deceased, on the ground that it was ob tained and executed by collusive pyactices, and through an un due influence exercised over the mind of the deceased, when in a state of mental imbecility and derangement. Should the affirmative of This latter proposition be established, the pros perty and effects of the deceased would vest in the Crown, the supposed intestate having died without family or relatives. Sir C. ROBlxsolv yesterday concluded his review of the evi dence, and "Dr: JEN'NER followed in support of the same line of argument; but as all-the material points of it are referred to in the judgment pronounced by Sir John Nicholl, we proceed at once to lay, that,' briefly as we can, before our readerk The Learned JUDGE began by observing, that although the case in support of the will might have been rendered stronger by the production of further, and, as it appeared to him, portant evidence, yet there was already sufficient proof to establish its validity to his mind. The deceased wasa person admitted to have originally been a man of shrewd understand ing, and_ to have amassed in the course of his business a consi derable fortune: ' In 'the •year 18E4, however, acommissiOn of lunacy was issued against him I a Committee was appointed to take the direction of his affairs; and in this state he remained till 1815, whed the commission was superseded. He then re assumed the management of his tiS'n interests, and conducted them with his former sagacity, till in 1817 he went abroad; and then commenced the history of those transactions, from their information respecting which, the Law Officers of the Crown had felt it their duty to institute this inquiry ; and they had conducted it with the candour which was always shewn on such occasions, and which peculiarly became those who appeared as theadvscates cf an interest so august. The reasons that in duced Alr; Ruffin to go abroad in 'lBl7, were not material to the question s. but having come to that determination, he being , a bachelor, converted the greater part of his funds into a Go verntnent annuity of 1,1001. for his own life, and retained about' 1501. per annum in freehold and leasehold property. H e th en took the opportunity of accompanying two of his acquaintances who were going to Calais. In no part of ins conduct in this instance, or since his release from the captivity of a private madhouse, did he evince any symptoms of a disordered intel lect; and, indeed, the lunacy for which he had been confined, seemed to proceed rather from an excessive use of ardent spirits than front constitutional disposition. Now it appeared to him that nothing but general incapacity, or absolute insanity at cer tain periods, could invalidate the will in question; and the fur ther the whole subject was examined, the weaker appeared the grounds upon which than suspicion rested. The deceased was at this time engaged in a law-suit, and had given very proper and rational instructions to his solicitor, Mr. Newman His other affairs had all been arranged in a manner that betokened a full possession of his faculties. His declining health, had there been no other inducement at that time, fur nished' an adequate' motive for his removal to the Continent, and when theiesfor his travelling about from place to place: From Calais, it appeared that he went to Lisle, anti there fell in with Mr: Taylor and Mr. Hind, who had been repreiented as needy adventurers,' and were supposed, in concert with a Mr. Keys, to have conspired to take a fraudulent advantage of his unsound' mind, and afterPhindering him while alive, to share his property amongtheniafterhisdecease. Now, it was tru e that Messrs. Taylor anti itindhadmet with misfortunes, but they were, and 'Mr. Hind in particular, very old friends and intimate acquaintances of the deceased; and engaged at that period as contractors for supplying the Army of Occupation. That the intimacy formerly subsisting between them should now be revived was natural; nor was there asy thing very extraordinary that Mr. Keys,' who was now introduced to Mr. Ruffin, should (being in some distress) be engaged as a kind of travelling companion or amanuensis to him, at a salary of 2001. a year. In this state matters remained for some time; Mr. Taylor 'went. to England, carrying with hith authority from 'the deceasedqcir the management of his xf • fairs, and the latter moved about till, at Germains, he was seized with a serious illness, probably the 'result of some in- , temperance. He recovered; and • then, according to the states ment of 'Mr. Kepi liMself, ordered instructions or memos randa for • the formal disposition of his property to be drawn up'; by which paper, subscribed with his own hand, he directed his 'property to be equally divided among the fayllta of Messrs. Hind, Taylor and Keys. This took place in November, 1818, and with the exception of certain letters and correspondence with Mr. Newman, there was no thing very Material till the month of April, 1819. Several acts had been mentioned as indicating an absence of mental capacity in the deceased, such as the dissipation of his funds, over drawing the Bank, and contracting large debts at the different hotels. Mi. Keys wrote to Mr. Newman, expressing his dis satisfaction with the -influence the deceased was under (that of Messrs. Hind and Taylor, his ancient friends), and intimating a wish to conduct him back to England. But all these cir etimstances Might be accounted for, and would never form a sufficient proof of lunacy on the one side', or of fraud. andeonspiritcy on , the other. The deceased, who continued: in a languid state of health, was seized with his last illness at Auffenbach; in Germany, in April, 1819, and he died on' the 4th of May. • The parties interested in the validity of the , will were all present ; and it seemed that in consequence of the . great and sodden change 'of the deceased, an alarm was:excited lest he should die before the will was duly attested. - 'About' one - o'clock, therefore, Mary Forster, a servant in rtlr. Hind's: faMily„ was called up, and with two foreign servants witnessed. : its' execution. • -The'testirriony Of Mary Forster:lkm entitled• to the highest credit, she having lived 111 years in the same-ser vice, and not being in it 'bow, nor likely to be deposing under its influence. The two other witnesses were not indeed forth comin,g, but if due diligence had been-used to procure their at tendance, and if their absence was easily explained, all that the law reqnired in that respect was accomplished. She then stated that she found Mr. Ruffin sitting up in bed, and - aptia-: rently labouring under a shortness of breath • that he said lie was very ill and'that after Mr. Ilia had read and placed two or three papers before him, he' said " that will do," and affixed hiS signature to them. She added. that he died at •7 o'clock the' next morning; to 'which she added, that although he was noisy 'aitrititOtis when' is liquor, she laid never suspected that ' lie was unable to manage his affairs, andthat lie had beep since his forther illnes's very abktemions.

The life of Ali Pacha will always be read with avidity ovring to the interest excited by a perusal of the fortunes of a man who from nothing raised himself to a degree ' little short of regal dignity, and with native in dependence proudly set his sovereign at defiance 4 The present work' is not altogether original. It is a compilation of historical facts, and extracts from the notices of contemporary writers. It is however skillfully arranged, and canducts us from the birth, parentage, Sz.c. of our hero until the close of his political and mortal career.-- Such a succession of cruelty and atrocity is rarely to be met with even in the annals of Turkish despotism. had Ali however lived at a less civilized period, he seems to have possessed most of the 'requisites which formed a hero-of anti quity, and would probably have descended to pos terity, shorn of his most atrocious and indefensible actions, and ranking high among the Caesars and' Alexanders of his day. From a very early age Ali appears to have shewn a restles and turbulent spirit uncommon in young Turks, (who are gene rally sedate and indolent) together with a dispo sition for war and a strong propensity to appro.: priate the property of others. These indications of future greatness were zealously encouraged by his Mother, a bold Amazonian ;Lady, who, renouncing the soft delights of the Harm seizes a musket, mounts a charger, and gives her son 'a complete military education. Ali does not disgrace his instructress, for at the age of fourteen he commences robber, heads a party of brigands, and at twenty-four years "old' we behold him at' the head of 2,000 men enter- - ing his native town of Tepelini which had stir. rendered to his victorious arms. We cannot in the shoft space of our review consider Ali in his several stages of boy, man, and parent, or we should quote much relating to his two sons Mouctar and Veil, of the amours of the farmer, • of whom, With the beautiful Phrosina, an interest ing story is told. The following account of the Pacha's dinner, avowedly taken from the GC Voyage clans lu Grece" of M.
