BRITISH REVIEIF. ~.0,••••••••• TI!E MANAGEMENT OF , LANDED ESTATES : A GENE- HAL WORK, FOR THE i7SE OF PROFESSIONAL MIEN. By MR. MARSHALL'. IT is needless to enter_ upon an inquiry into. the • advantages re6nltthg from agricultural porsuits, as improsrt' state of this Country affords a sutfi • c.!ent proof of their utility and importance. The Author - of the Work before us has employed ,the greater'part of. his life in - these pursuits, and much of the imProvement to which we have allud rd may fairly' be said to have been derived. from an adoption -of the judicious measures which his dili gence, judgment, and experience have suggested.— . Inuetu, no Author whose attention has been' • - • retied to these inquiries has afforded so much solid • instrufAion ; and, therefore,' we think we are dis charging a public duty in drawing general notice to' his valuable Publications on subjetts so interesting and important.. The present Work is avowedly an Abstra& of the comprehasive Treatise on Landed Property with which Mr. MARSHALL laiely favour ed the agricultural wo-Id.. As our Paper is widely circulated over the Country, we think - we shall.ren : der a great service to a particular class of . our Read -. ers in presenting- them occasionally with. Extraats from Works of such obvious utility.' 'the following passage, onrEMBSNINT, contains some valuable 1 . diredions. EMBANKMENT AND DRAINING. The theory. of this valuable operation isbeanti fullr simple. The outward waters, Whether of tides or floods, having been resisted by a line of embank ment, and having receded, those that have collected internally, during the rise, are enabled, by their own weight, to open a valve that is placed in. the foot of the bank, and etrea their escape ; thus-securing the., embanked 'lands from inundation, thoughlempo rarily beset on every side with water. The bank is the most difficult and expensive part of an improvement of this nature. Its situation, its • size, its materials, mid form of constrnalon, arc in a great measure given in the particular circumstances of case. . There -are; nevertheless, general principles that are applicable in all cases. The situation of the, bank should be such that ,its ,base may not be exposed, unnecessarily, to the im • mediate a&tion of the waves or_ the current. And, where the quantity_ of - water is limited, as that of land floods, in a particular river,' pray be'said to be,' the more room it has left to spread in, the leis . height and strength the bank' will require ; and the power of the current will be propertioahly lessened. It is to be recolle6led, however, in all cases where • the channel of the water is liable to be warped or silted up by sulliage, that the narrower the space is in which the water is confined, the stronger will be its current ; and the less silt will, in ordinary cases, be deposited. • The line of embankment Should be smoothe should be free from sharp anglei—so as to ea- on the least possible resistance tothe current, whe-' then of a land flood or the tide. . In the coststritaton or farm of the bank there are certain principles to be observed. • Its height and strength ought ever- to be- proportioned to the depth ' and weight of water which it will have-to sustain and, to increa , e its firmness ; the inner face should lean towards it as a buttress. ' Dut -it is on the con struaion of the outer face its strength, firmness, and durability principally depend. This ought to 'be triade sloping to - a' degree of flatness, for the twofold purpose of preventing resistance, acrd taking off the weight of water:' In difficult:cases, • the -outer sur face may form :in angle With a perpendicular line of 45 to lio'clegrees, according to the force to be guard ed against, and the materialS to be employed. • The niatcrialS of the body of t-he bank (as well as of the inner pee) where the foundation is- sound aticl firm, and the bank can be - carried'up, at a pro senspn without great molestation from the water, -• may generally be the natural soil of the lands to be embanked. And, where merely, the weight of stag nant or slowly movitig Water is-to be guarded against, •• the outer slope may" be-of the same material. - But wlere force, whether of waves ora strong current, , wdl gt immediately upon . the bank-, • its outet.face ought to be Made proof against it, and its base to be , particularly guarded, to prevent -its being"-under mine,l ; the most mischievous and irreparable dis aster of an embanknient. -Hence, when - the foun dation is not suffioiently firm, piles, timber,' and masonry may be required to insure success. And no man ought to begin a Work of this nature.with: " cut attentively guarding it against .every probability •of miscarriage. LAW REPORT. COURT OF kING's BENCI-1, CIJILTYnALL, Dr.c. 24 BOEHM AND TAYLOR,V. GARC{AS AND:LUIS. This was an aEtion on two Bills of and involved a question perfealy . new to the praaice of the Court. The Plaintiffs and DefendantA are Mer chants. The .Bills were fbr 4600 and 4200 cur rent dollars, 'at the exchanae of 30 pen ce, at one and a half usance, dated die 28 t h of January M the present year. • They were drawn on Don Juan . Fernandez del Rio, of Madrid, and were refused acceptance in the usual form, but acceptance was tendered for their payment in vales a dindro,:which is a species of paper curreney issued by the Spanish Government. 11r. GARROW . and Sir V. GIBBS, for the Plain tiff's, contended, that on the thee of the Bills "it ap peared that the payment by the drawee should be , made in specie, at the rate of 128 quartos eack_ spe cie dollar. Kir the purpose of passing off a sort of Spanish' assignat, a special acceptance had been tendered, which.i,Vould not satisfy the demand of the parties. After the Bills had been read and proved, and the protest had been the n t ica tett; Messrs. Torrtsu and JARVIS contended, that the terms ospecie and efiaive did not imply metallic mo ney, but that species of paper authorised by Go vernment called valeS. a diner(); which had been sub stituted for coin. It was true, that there was some obscurity in the terms, but they were capable of explanation by the custom of merchants they should prove by satisfaaory evidence, that it was the constant pradice to pay bills, precikly in the fbrro of these, in vales a diner° ; and when they had. sadbne, the 'Jury could have no difficulty • in finding a verdid for lite Defendants. After much interloentory conversation on the Meaning of the Spanish expreSsimis employed in the Bill, on behalf of the Defendants , were called Mr. T. J. Cornthwaite, Mr.. Gordon, Mr. De La Torre, whose son a&ed as interpreter; and, for the. Plai ntiffs, Mr. Grellet. Lord ELLENBOROUGH said, that, when a bill is drawn-in particular terms, the drawee must accept it on those terms `: he cannot put a construction of biS own upon such terms ; he must either'accept it or not ; and be has no right to introduce a me dium of payment which the bill does not import. If the acceptance tendered had been so clearly the same as to enable the party to enforce the payment in the- form expressed in the bill, any redundant wools, although unnecessary, might not be injurious to the party. ,Thus a bill here might be accepted-d -not in the short established form; but it might be added, that it should be paid in pounds sterling Bri tish, which would be merely a waste of pen, ink, and paper, without depriving the holder of his just remedy in case of action. But what is offered here is not tantamount to any general ieCeptance; and the drawee having refused to accept-in the terms in which ,the.bill was drawn, is chargeable with the non-acceptance. . After soiree further observations on the nature of the exchange, and on. •the inipolicy of forcing this paper circulation on the public, his Lcrdship con clhded with saying,. that whatever obscurity there Might be in respea'to: the construction, or the cus tom with regard to the payment, he was quite. clear that the acceptance tendered on this occasion was not a good and valid Accpptance.--;-Verdia fbr• the Plaintiffs....—Amount of the damages referred. BAILLIE V. COCK. The' Plaintiff, Mr. George. Baillie, iS the manag ing Partner in the Mercantile bous'e of Messrs. . G. 20. Mlle and Co. ' a&ion was brought to recover a very large amount in . damagc..ss a7..)inst'the - Defendant for a libel, stated to haVe been published' him regarding the Plaintiff'. Whilst Mr. •IWIRONY i the junior Coun sel for the Plaintiti,. was opening the pleadings, DALtAS,' Counsel for - the Defendant, proposed a • reference, Which', after consulting the . Plaintiff, was at length. assented to, and Mr. Winthrop;, the Go vernor of the Bank, was mutually agreed: upon. The Counsel for the Plaintiff and Defendant ob-: seri'ed %iiortly on the great magnitude and import ance of the case ; and Lord ELLEN BOROUGH said, he bad perused the pleadings, Which were veryin ,- tricate, and that' he big* approved of.the reference to Mr.• Winthrop, which did credit to the Couns& on both sides. • • . ' • . • On Tuesday Se' nnigh t, or early on Wednesday morn- . ing, a most daring felony was committed in the shop of Mr. S. Dunkin, liiieu-draper, in the Groat,ruar-. ket, ISleWcastle. The thieves, , aftei'foreing" a (loot. leading to a new and uninhabited building behind, op,med ,a hole iu.the partition large-enough to admit the body of a man: ..H:wing tbds obtained an entrance, tijey succeeded in carrying OtY'godds to a great amount. They left behind- them an iron crow, a button -top, a piece of candle, .a huge tobacco quid, and a thick stick, intended to answer the 7irarposts of a bludgeon and a whistle, to the last 'of which uses it Is said 10. - Ivre been, of late, frequently applied in that neighbourhood. Three suspicious chara6ters, belonging - to Gateshead, were taken into custody, one Of whott Was circumstantially identified-by a buffet = the back Viit of his coat' exaaly fitting the to Itft :behind: - A part of the property (two small webs of black crape) was found on Saturday morning ina field belonging to Mr. Isaac Richardson, at - Spring-gardens, by children, whilst at play. Mr. immi7diattly informed Mr. fionkin, and though strid search was made in every direalion near the plaCe' where the webs - Were found no other article has'since been discovered.• ' On Monday evening a fire-broke out in the Dock yard at Portsmouth, which threatenedvery.alarm ing,consequences. Between four and tWe o'clock. aie-iiamcs were seen to burst from the house in which the rope is baked and the twice tarred for the use of the mil-makers. The wind was high, and "Mew directly towards the rigging and sail-lofts, be tween .which :And the fire . Os a quantity of light. l (Iry timber. The moment the fire was - discovered fr, - /rn the Audacious, Lieut. Strrit hastened on shore with a 7 party of :sailors, to assist in e,stingtfishing it ; but on arriving at spot, no engine . bad arrived, Nvere no buckets at hand: a supply . was immediately prOcuredi, from the Audacious, andiby the “xcrtions of the sea Men, the:fire'Wac prevented from spreading further. The fire being 'close to the xiiter side, and the tide at the tune vety'high, water I.w.s obtained 'With 'the 'grearestfacility. The following dread.fial accident haPperied to the driver of the mail-coach from Bristol to Birming bran, on Monday nis:it last, Within . a few mites of Thornbuty : the coach . was going at a brisk rate, when the guard . observed the driverto fall' oti his seat between the hbrseS; he got down and endea- Voured to stop them, but in vain. He then succeed ed in regaining his scat behind the coach,. till the nniMals slackened their pace, svLen he. drove the coach in safety to Thornbuey, where he procured' a hors - and ref to, the • unfortunate man; whoth he conveyed back ; ghrgical asstance was inst; n 1y prcicurt.,l,l)ut it was 1 . 1 - uitless, as one of the wheels ba t passed over , his- neck, and it is .supposed killed "i:n on the spot.

Ii or Mr. STEEL . .—Daring the several ex,- arninations of the med . charged 'with this 'Murder. there has not been'the slightest corroboration what ever of the testimony given by Hantield, the accom plice, nor is th''..re any probability of such being found, notwithstanding the exertions that have been made. With Tespeet to Hantield the accomplice; Cle story of his hiving .coafesse4 the murder in India is errone ous. ' He had'been for a series of years- a notorious charther on the town, and in July, 1804', he was , convicted of felbiiy at the Old Bailey Session, and sentenced to transportation. It Was on board the hulks, in Langston harbour, where he was undergoing his sentence, that he offered to become an evldence against the murderers of Mr. Steel. ofa The L OND 6_ f ETI'L, Dee. :13, 1806. . , A:tr.Uffice, Drc. 23, ISA, 2,clizegitgent of Drag9nn Gtiani:;; cornet Wil!larn Chamber layne to be Lieutenant, by purclute, vice Tower, 'pro- motet. 7:h •Rcititnent-Of' I iglu Dragoons, •folin King, Gent: to be Corn , t, by purchase, vice licaviside, placed on kiAlf-pay . of the IStil Light Dragoon:. trill Ditto, Cornet 't hOrnas Crawford to be Lieutenant, by purchase, vn:e Wersop., who retires:- • . . 13th Ditto, Cruet John H.
