COURT, OF CHANCERY; Auo. 14. The Court conlincd itself this day exclusively to the consi. deration of 13anktriipt'Petitions. rkORTHWOOD . 1?4" THE MATTER Or s R?CHARDS• This case originally came before the Court, on a charge that the Commission had been obtained by concert and collusion between the parties interested ; the (recision then made, how ever, negatived this proposition, and Mr. MONTAG u stated that he was now instructed, in conse quence of affidavits that fresh facts had been discovered, to make arfapplication that the case be reheard. Mr. -HART said that this application was evidently a mere device to rotract the payment of costs, which were due under his Lordship's former order. This case had been pending for several years, and the other side being , now pressed on this point, had recourse to the present subterfuge in order to pre vent that decision from being carried into effect, by thus press ing for a re-hearing of the cause. At the former period when the matter was before the Court (and his experience did not furnish a case whieh, had , been argued half so laboriously), there were three propositions!stbraitted to the. Court on which the interposition - of his Lordship was asked : the 'first 'Was as to the concert and collusion between the attorney, the peti tioning creditor and, the 'bankrupt; the second was relative to fictitious debts, and the third went to stay the'bankrupt's certi ficate in' consequence 'of an alleged reservation of his pro perty. The , Court, howevei then granted the certificate, and negatived the charop 'adduced against the bankrupt., - In his opinion the decision of his Lordship was conclusive, and therefore he trusted the Court.w(hrld-dismiss the present peti tion with costs. The Loup CHANCELLOR did not apprehend that the ques tion of costs was the subjeCt now liefore the Court. When he cOnsidered the long period Which had elapsed subsequent to the hearing of this matter, it.was hardly Possible, his Lordship said, to cone to a just conclusion in it, until he. had reinformed him self on all the - facts cimtained id the several affidavits; fie had a perfect recollection of the case, though not of all the circum stances attending it, and he would Venture. to ,say, that if the order he had made were an improper one, it could not be attributable 'to inattention to the subject tin his - part, for .he had considered' and re-considered the case ; he had perused the papers from time to time,. indeed:.so very many times, that were he to enumerate, them, lie firmly believed that credulity 'herself would not' credit him ' • still, however, it was far from his intention to infer • that he had come to a correct decision.. Mr..ITART said, th:•.t . on the latter observation - which had fallen from his LordshiP,''h6 woad take this opportunity of Making one comment,. and that seas, that when a case had been for a considerable time before the Court; , and judgment had been Of entually Obtained, it was the invariable; the unfortunate practice of his Lordship in giving thht decision, to drop some eNpres,4on of a latent doubt, which undid in fact, what with so much pains he had been endeavouring to complete ; for al though Coubsel'were perfectly convinced of the propriety of the debision - Which the • Court had arrived at, -still they were compelled, in .con.segnence ; of the impression made on -the minds of their clients, to press, for a re-hearing of the case.,. and thus was this department of the business of the Court laments. • blv augmented; Mr. MoSvrAou declared, that from the time the original Petition Was presented' to the' present moment, the 'deep and fixed impression on his mind was (he was perfectly aware that such an impression might be perfectly erroneous) that this was as. strong a case of cencerted•commissiOn as ever came before the Court. - . • The Lam) CIIANCE Lon—Mr. Montagu, there ar ea great Many cases of concerted.commissions iii which deciding as a JOge„upon my oath, confining myself alone to the evidence' before me; and taking into consideration all the doubts arising. from the cases,? I ant bound to decide in the negative ; whereas VI were to be asked my opinion on my honour as a man, I might unhesitatingly say that they justified such a construe tion:• This - obserVation I. throw out, not as applying to the par., ticular case before me, but as generally applicable. With re- ference th', the subject of expressions which occasionally' fall froM me r there may perhaps. be two reasons to account for it : —The first is e thit I veril' believe that I am constitutionally so formedas to be susceptible of more doubts than anTnian s in the kingcloM • and; secondly entertaining such doubts ; 'I -ant unwilling to Lad people to believe that I have a confidence, thereby depriving them 'of- the benefit that may result there froM. • This has been my course of proceeding; and if • I haVe been wrong as a Judge, I am sorry for it ; I tear it is now too late to alter it. His Lordship said he would take the papers home with hini: • POLICE INTELLIGENCE. Makatok-HOUSE.—A NEsT OF SWlNDLEll3.—Yester lay a young man, named Brown.

Smith, of Garden-house, Kenitsh-town, appeared before the sitting Ma gistrate, EDMUND GRIFFITII, ,Esq. to prefer a complaint against a .middle-aged genteel woman, named Flowers, - for abuse and insulting expressions made towards him. The corn plainariLstated, that about 9 o'clock on Tuesday evening, as he Was passing along Oxford:street, the wonian called'. after him •saying, ."'There goisi the 'Bishop !" and made use of other base and infamous language; he however proceeded without noticing her, for about 20 yards, but finding she continued her abuse, he became fearful of some personal violence, and gave her in 'ehara.e to the watchinan. The worthy magistrate severe ly censured her on the impropriety of 'her conduct for abusing any person who happened to be a clergyman ; and asked her if she was a married woman ? and on her replying in the o:rnaa tiVe,-heinstantly ordered her to find bail. The parties had not left. the -.office long before , the. Reverend' Gentleman returned, And, addressing the ',Magistrate, said, that in consequence of her husband begging very hard' for hia -forgiveness of his wife's misconduct, he had consented to an 'apology) 'The female was then - brought before the Magistrate again, who informed her that the Gentleman had most humanely consented to what she very unjustly deServed: The woman then courtesied, begged his pardon, and retired with her friends.

MAIDSTONE, AUGUST 12. SPECIAL JURY.-UNDERHILL AGAINST SHORE. This was an action brought by Mr. Underhill for an assault committed on him in the Assembly-roomS at Rams ga te, where at considerable number of the fashionable residents and visitors were met together, for the purpose of tlecting a Master of the Ceremonies. • Mr. Sergeant TADDY, who led the case of the plaintiff, stated that, in consequence of the death of Mr. Clough,. preparations were made on the 6th of October last, for the election of a new • Master. Mr. Hayes and Mr. Bailey were the Candidates. It was arranged that those Ladies and • Gentlemen, inhabitants and visitors of the parishes of St. Law : rence and St. Peter, who .'were then subscribers, - or should sub scribe before six o'clock on the evening of the ensuing Satur day, should-be eligible to vote fur the new Master of the Ceremo nies. Lord and Lady Turner were then at Ramsgate, and they 'took it warm interest in behalf of Mr. Hayes. Electors were qualified on both sides: and by the efforts of Lord and Lady Turner, a list was given in on the Bth of Oct. the day of election, Of 76 persona for whom Lord Turner hid paid the subscriptions, as statmeh supporters of Mr. Ilayes. This number undoubt edly included many persons, who, though respectable in their. respective situations, could not properly come under the de scription of the ladies and gentlemen of the neighbourhood of Ran - agate who were in the habit of frequenting the assembly rooms. Upoii the day of election S. Sherwood, Esq.,. was called en the chair, who took that ostensible situation upon' an under standing; than aftet the. scrutineers ,(31r. Peter Moore for Mr. Hayes, and Mr. Shore, the defendant, for Mr. Bayley) had de livered their opinions upon the eligibility of the persons coming forward to vote, 'his decision should be without appeal. In the list of the seventy-six persons which was given in by gr. Peter Moore, as voters for Mr. Hayes, the plaintiff was included. Upon his appearing to vote for Mr. Hayes, • dissatisfaction Was expressed by the friends of Mr. - Bayley. -. The vote was arguedl by the scrutineers,. but was finally received by the Chairman.' Some persons on this, asked whether Mr. Underhill meant to attend the assemblies, whO replied that he should 'do as he pleased upon that subject—he should suit his convenience is that respect. being of somewhat diminutive size, an inottiry took place among the supporters of Mr. Bayley, " - whete the little schoolmaster was ?" Mr. _Underhill immediately jumped into a chair , calling out that. _there he was, as tall as any of them, 'and lie could speak as loud. This, it seems, gave some offence to the polite assemblage, which was further increased by his going out, and introducing as a voter Mr. Cricket, a. master as well as a, jobbing carpenter and builder, who entered the room in a corduroy waistcoat and trowsers. Crickett, upon being remonstrated with, retired; but the full weight of the indigna tion of theffefendant e and others in the interest of Mr. Bayley, fell upon the . unfortunate plaintiff, who; in the sight of his wife and daughters; was knocked down, and pushed out of the room. It was for this outrage that the action was brought. S. Sherwood, Esq., examined.—l resided at Ranisgatelast October. On the Bth of that month I took the chair on the. election.for a Master of the Ceremonies. The plaintiff's vote was offered, allitich I accepted. I afterwards saw the defendant seize the plaintiff by the collar or shoulders, and forcibly urge him towards the door, upon which great confusion: toOk place. Cross-examined.o--The persons who attended the Assembly roomi were highly respectable ; don't know that Mr. Well s (a person in the list) is a dealer in sausages; had never seen Mr. ,1 !Aycock, a journeyman bricklayer, there; don't know Mr.., Lacev, the green-grocer ;' don't know Mr. Crickett has. been fiddling at alehouses; Mr.: Moore, upon the evening of the 6th, • brought a list of 7I;.; 111 r, Mrs. and Miss Underhill were-three of the 76 ; 31r.

Major Col ' grave observed; -" Where'is thiS little Schoolmaster, 1 iiibuld like to see him ?" and the plaintiff being a little man, juriipcd up into a chair, so y iug " Here heie."

Shore N6.s sO'titip.eer for Mr. Bayley; great exettions Were made on both sides to get votes; 1 recommended the 'friends of jr.

Mr. Underhill's' vote was objected to by' Mr. Shore ; it was decided to be a good vote : previous to his Voting he was objected to in very improper 'terms ; after his vote had been received, and those of 40 other persons, Mir. Shore darted towards the plaintiff, . and said, " I will show you how to turn him out if you will assist me:" I saw hint seize the plaintiff, one of whose daughters was standing near the chair z and I believe she fainted ; there was nothing in the conduct of the plaintiff, to give occasion to this treatment ; I saw him after Wards, and his forehead and face were bruised and bloody . ; I spoke to the defendant as to what could have in duced him to treat the little Schoolinaster so violently : he said, the plaintiff had stared at him--the defendant is a stout strong man. Other witnesses confirmed these witnesses as to the blood on the face.of the plaintiff. 111 r. GURNEY ascribed the usage which the plaintiff had re ceived to his improper conduct in having been extremely insolent to the company, and also by introducing Crickett. He admitted that a verdict must be found against the defendant for the assault; but the *vocation offered by the plaintiff entitled him only to the smallest damages. i ts to the blood on the face of the plaintiff, he'should call a witness to contradict that part of the staternint, and who would prove that no more violence was used than was sufficient to remove him from the company he had so grossly insulted. Several highly respectable witnesses were called, who nega-. tived the blood and bruises, and confirmed the view taken of the case by'the Learned Counsel for the defendant. _ _ .SIF. Sergeant TARDY replied in a very ingenious and.humo roul speech, and put it to the Jury if bp had not hilly made out the case he had undertaken to prove. The LORD CHIEF BARON summed up the evidence, and the Jury .found a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages Is. Arouwr 13. GAY V. WHOLMES AND WIFE. This was an action for defamatory words, impeaching the plaintiff's chastity, and imputing to her an improper inter course with the male defendant. The words were alleged to have been spoken by the female defendant. Special damage was laid in the loss of the plaintiff's situation as a consequence of the slander. . llr. AJAR WYATT (with whom was Mr. BOLLAND) re presented the plaintiff to be a Miss Gay, who had been em ploved for many years as an ironer, by a Mr. Hall, who car ried. on the business of a laundress at Lewisham through the agency of his wife. The plaintiff had lodged for about . a month with .the defendants. For some groundless cause Mrs. Wholrnes thought proper to entertain a jealousy of Hiss , Gay, to whom bhe imputed , improper familiarities between her and herhosband, and:had gone the length of call iug the pla4niftby the offensive ;name of —, .and had even declared in express terms to several people that she and her husband had had criminal conversation. The Learned Coun sel admitted, that-for such slander no action would lie in the common law courts, unless temporal damage could be proved. In the Ecclesiastical Court, to call a chaste virgin by the hateful name to which he alluded, the sentence was no more than standing in a xis - bite ,sheet before the altar with a taper in her hand. - lien however, loss of service could be proved as a conseqUenee of the defamation ; for Miss Gay had, for a period - of 15 - years, been in a lucrative situation, where she earn ed 14s. a week and her board, which adv,aittages she lost in consequence ofthe gross vituperation of the defendant's wife.— - - • For so serious an injury she•now aolight a liberal coMpensation in damages._ Two females, nariNd Gable and -Clarkte,.provei distinctly the slanderous wordss - aileged in the declaration,, and Mr. Ilan, the male laundress, proved that he had dismissild-tLe-plainiliffrom , his employment, in consequence of the sland.er uttered- by Mrs. ViTholines, which was widely circulated .thrqugli I t iewtsham.„ DePtford, Greenwich, and the neighbouring oistnets. Tli plaintiff had applied to an advertising-half-pace solicitor, named itloubray, by whom _the action was-brought. Mr. GURNEY (with whom was Tvlr.

This ' was an indictment agaiqst the defendant, Michael. Hunt, dfor an assault committed by him on the plaintiff; Re beatSeXiey,, who, it appeared by Mr. Scrjeant PELL'S address to the `Jury', was a person in the office of Messrs. Truman and Co; of "Bath, who are coach-proprietors, and in whose office the-plaintiff-was ,enipleyol to look after and Bee to the way bills, and that the book-keepers and coachmen committed no fraud against them. The defendant was the driver Of one of the stage-coaches that stops at their office, from London to Bristol. The coach is called the Regulater. On the even ing of the 28th of September last, the defendant came with the coach; and gave his way-bill to the book-keeper; (IVlr. Parker) and then went into the house. When the defendant returned, he said to the book-keeper , " hour many are to go on ?" 'lie said, " One short, 2 s . 6. to Kensee.' He (the defendant) then said—" Who ordered that to be put on the way-bill ?" I told him, Robert Sexlev ; when he came round tu, the desk, and shoved him from it, took hold cf his hat by the brim—but before he pulled it quite over his eyes, lie knocked him in the face, so as to fetch water in both eyes. Mr. C. F. Wm,Lialos cross-examined Mr. Parker, who, stated that the . defendant had made use of opprobrious language, which it 'would not be proper to repeat, and which was rot pressed by Mr. Williams on the part of the defendant, but he wished to address the Jury . oh the - nature of this trumpery ac tion, which bad been removed by certiorari from the Sessions to the AsSize Court, and which could, said Serjes.nt Pell; only have been done to give the Learned Counsel, Mr. Williams, an opportunity of speaking. The JUDGE said it was no doubt an assault. The defend ant was found Guilt. CORONERS' INQUESTS. t7RDEn..-Last night an .

I shall therefore move, before I sit down, a resolution to that effect. I am accused of vacillation on this occasion, but which I think is not doing me justice, for I yet give the preference to the scite behind the Feather's Inn, which I originally had the honotir to - recommend at the very numer ous and respectable general meeting upon this business, which was nearly unanimously apprOved of; yet 1 am of opinion that the New Linen-Hall may now be purchased upon very advantageous terms,. being informed. that it is not intended to open it again at the fairs here, ;for its original design, the sale of Irish linen. I therefore mote; that this Committee request Mr. Finchett to write to the proprietors of the New Linen Hall of this city, resident at Alanchester, to ascertain upon what terms they will dispose of the sane, and report to a Committee, to be called when the answer is received."—Mr. Falliott, in quitting the chair, exprmied his regret that it was his lot to be born in Chester, instead of Liverpool, where he might probably have had-to address jive hundred Gentlemen instead of Aur ! !—( Chester Courant, August 13. j .
