SIR T. SWIMMER CHAMPNEYS, BART. This was an action upon a bill of exchange for 5001., drawn by John Maberly upon, and accepted by the defendant, dated Dec. 19, 1820, payable twelve months after date, and indorsed by Maberly to the plaintiff: Mr. WALFORD set up four grounds of defence ; first, that this was an accommodation {bill ; second, that the defendant had had no value for it; thi r d, th a t th e bill was i n d orse d to the plaintiff, with a knowledge of the indorser's infirmity of title; and fourth, that the indorsement took place in contemplation of Maberly's bankruptcy. . After hearing the evidence, the CHIEF JUSTICE said, that as the identity of the bill would not be established,' the defence set up must fall to the ground. It w as no more t h an a case of suspicion, and though the defendant probably received no value for the bill, still, as against the acceptor, in the hands of the plaintiff it was available. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 5101. IIABERLY, SEN. V. SIR T. CIIAMPNEYS. This was an action against the same defendant by the plain tiff as indorsee of three bills M exchange Accepted by the de fendant, one for 1,0001. and two others for 5001. each. There was no defence offered, and the plaintiff had a verdict for 2,0411. OLD BATLEY—Saturday the following prisoners were capi. tally convicted :—Wm. Thompson, aged 19, for stealing a geld. ing, value 101. the property of Joseph Mercer ; and Siesan Fos ter, aged 38, for sealing several sheets, curtains, &c. value 40s. in the dwelling house of Wm. Gladill. • DESTRUCTIVE HAIL-STORM.—On Monday last, between one and two o'clock in the afternood, this city and neighbourhood were visited by a tremertdous storm of thun der, lightning, and hail ; the hailstones w ere o f an un usual size. The chief , violence of the storm appears to have been felt at Spetchley, near this city, where great damage was done. In the conservatory, hot-house, &c. of Robert Berkeley, Esq. nearly 600 panes of glass were broken ; in the gardens, the fruit, together with large shoots, were torn from the trees, and the peas and other crops laid prostrate : in the immediate neighbourhood several fields of beans were literally cut to pieces, and great damage sustained in other respects by the farmers.-- We are assured, that at this devoted spot, many hailstones -(or rather pieces of ice) fell, which measured four inches in cir. cumference, and that great quantities of them were found yes terday morning undissolved. In this city, no material damage was done, but considerable alarm was occasioned to those who recollected the destruction caused by the hail-storm on the 27th of May, 1811.—( Woreester Journal.) ROYAL SOCIETY OF MUSICIANS. The Anniversary Festival of this excellent In stitution was held, on Saturday last, 6.t the Ai gyll-Itoorns ; Earl FouTEscur in the Chair, supported by a number of Noblemen and-persons of rank. When the cloth was removed, Non nobis Dontine was sung in the most impressive manner, by at least fifty professors. 'After the health of his Majesty was given, our National Anthem was performed (accompanied by an exquisite instru mental band) with the best possible effect. HORSLEY'S glee of " Mail , golden Lyre," was sung by the vocal corps, and highly applauded, as was M r . K NYVET T' S g l ee o f " frhere Mgentle love strays," ac co mp an i e d on t h e piano-forte by ssrs. C. and W. KNYVETT. - Mr. DANCE, in proposing the health of the Noble President, addressed the company in a very appropriate: speech, observ ing that his Lordship had been for many years a zealous friend to the society. Earl FQRTESCUE returned thanks, and stated that the Royal Society of Musicians not only afforded relief to the aged professors, the widow, and orphan, but it- also afforded at its annual festivals a very superior musical treat to its patrons and friends. Mr. T. COOKE was called upon for a 'song ; lie gave his mock Italian Buffs, in a truly comic style. The fine glee of " Discord" was beautifully executed. Mr. CRAMER (assisted by I."'STS. F. CRAMER, MORALT, LINDLEY, and DRAGONETTI) J .:Tit/Med a most scientific quintat; his elegant and expressive style of performance on the piano -forte is universally known and appreciated, and to say that on this occasion he did his best, is to say that nothing could excel it. The delicacy with which the accompaniments were performed, was beyond d escr ipti on , . an d M r . F . C ramer never lost an opportunity of . displaying his classical talent on the violin. Mr. HARLEY of Drury-lane theatre, was requested to sing; he gave a parody on " Oh Dolce Concento," in a very laugh able manner, which drew down (as the theatrical phrase is) thunders of applause. BrsHor'a beautiful round of " When the Wind blows," was sung with accompaniments for the piano forte and wind instruments in a very superior manner, and loudly encored. Mr. KrESEIVETTEn (who was specially invited) performed an Introductory Movement and a Polacca on the .violin, ac companied by Messrs. F. CRAMER, MORALT, R. ASHLEY, and DRAGONETTI, in a most surprising manner; his taste, expression, and wonderful execution, elicited repeated bursts of applause, and cries of "Bravo , " from an audienc e w h o knew how to val ue hi s exquisite performance. • , Master SMITH, was to have sun g " W e ' re a' Noddin" (ar ranged by HAwEs), by particular desire; but in consequence of a severe head-ache,_ he was obliged to re ti re , t o t h e no small disappointment of the company, and especially the Ladies who graced the boxes with their charms, and who appeared highly gratified with the entertainment. When the healths of the - Professional Stewards were given, Mr. HORSLE Y addressed the company; he regretted the absence of Dr. NICHOLAS, chaplain to the Society; who was a zealous friend to the charity, and who on all occasions pleaded its cause in the most eloquent manner ; as it was then so very' late, Mr. H. would only briefly state, that about three years back, the members were apprehensive that they should be under the painful necessity of lowering the allowances to their claim ants—but his brethren rose to a man—and by exertion on their part, and the great patronage and support of those who sur rounded him, " Thank GOD {exclaimed Mr. H.) we have been enabled, not only to keep our word with our poor claimants, but to afford relief to many an indigent applicant." The Noble PRESIDENT read a list of new life and annual subscribers which was sent in that day, and we were very happy to find it contained a number of noble names. The Wind Instrument Band (consisting of the first talent in the kingdom) performed Two Marches composed for the So ciety by HAYDN and 4 - ma -En, in a most finished style. The glees were performed by Messrs. Bellamy, Evans, Clark, Coll yer, T . Cooke, Hawes, Knyvett, W. Knyvett, Leete, I''arry, J. Smith, Sale, J. Bale, Terrail, Greatorex, and Vaughan ; the names of whom will be a sufficient guarantee for the superiority of the execution. The wines were furnish 'ed by Mr. KAY of the Albion, and were excellent; it was eleven o'clock ere the President quitted the chair, when TEMPLE 'WEST, Esq. was requested to take it; who, by way of an earnest of his anxiety to promote harmony, sung a song, which ,was well received. - • Thus terminated one of the greatest musical treats of the kind that was ever given ; and all who were present testified their approbation by requesting that tickets might be sent to them next year. WEYMOUTH, Mai. 23. This (reservedly celebrated Waterino. Place has lone been distin gu i s h e d f or t h e act i ve benevolence of its in habitants. Institutions of every kind, whose object is to smooth the pillow of affliction, and administer to the wants of the suffering poor, are here in active operation. There is scarcely a poor cottage that is not daily blessed by the hand of charity, and in vain is it that misery endeavours to widen its dominion, whilst sympathizing pity is opposing it on every side. It sets an example worthy of imitation, and were it fol lowed by every other town in the kingdom, the cry of distress would not be so prevalent. We feel great pleasure in stating, that as soon as the dis-. tresses of the poor Irish were made known to them, a spon taneous feeling of humanity arose i n t h e i r favour, and a re spectable Meeting of the inhabitants took place at the Guild hall, in this Borough, RICHARD BOWER, Esq.

N. rose, and moved that a general subscription be entered into for alleviating the distress that prevailed to a most lamentable degree in the south district of Ireland, and that books be—opened at both Banks and Li braries to receive the same, which was seconded by JAMES, BOWER, Esq. Mr. J. M. Tooxs then moved that a Committee be ap pointed to carry this humane and benevolent work into effect, and to correspond with the Committee sitting in London, to promote the same laudable object, - which was seconded by the Rev. 0. Piers. The Worshipful MAYOR then read the names of the Com mittee, which included the following Gentlemen :—Sir Henry Onslow, Bart., Rev: 0. Piers, Capt. Hancock, R.N., John Cossins, Esq., Capt. J.
