THE IfEGENT'S CANAL COMPANY V. LORD DUNDAS. This was an' action to recover from the Noble Defendant a sum of 8001. alleged by the Plaintiffs to be due from him to the Company, as instal ments due upon certain shares of Which be was a holder. The Defendant pleaded that be was not Mr. WA itliEbl; for the plaintiffs, proceeded to prove that the defendant was a shareholder, and that the instalments in question had become ilue, and a regular call had been made for the amount at a Meeting of the General Committee; namely, paymeut : of 10 per cent,. upon each share ; and an order that .the same should be paid at the time appointed into the house of Messrs. Martyr) and Stone; bankers, and to the account'of Mr. Ward, Treasurer of the Company. ' Mr. SCJOILETT, for the defendant, submitted that the plaintiffs-bad not done: what was necessary to entitle themselves to bring the present action. The 46th Section'of the Act passed for regulating the management of this .Company provided that calls should he made on the subscribers for pay nient of dividends by the General Committee, who were to fix the amount of such payments, the time, place, and manner of the same being made ; .and if atter such call, any subscriber should neglect to pay, he should 'be liable to be sued for the amount of his dividend by the General Commit , - tee. So far the provisions of .the 46th Section went ; but . the 48th Section required something more to be done. By the 48th Section it was pro 'vided, to entitle themselves to bring their action against a defaulter, it "was necessary they Should 'give to. suck defaulter 'a' notice of such call having been made by the general Committee. The plaintiffs hail not proved, nor had they indeed given any such, notice to Lord Dttndas ; and therefore be submitted they were not in a situntion'to sup port the present action. - • • Mr. WARREN Conttniled, that the call of the Committee-was all the notice which the Act re quired. Lord Et.teriaottotrell hehl the objection fatal, and the plaintiffs were nonsuited. THE SAME V. LORD ST. JOHN. This was an.action brought by the same plain tiffs against Lord fit. John, under similar circum stances. The same objection arose as in the tor tpercase, and the plaintiffs were consulted. THE SAME V. BROOKSBANK. The circumstances in this case being the same as in the former cute, - the plaintiffs consented to be nonsuited. Lord ELL,ENBOROUqII finished his Sittings, hav ing 4 lisi t osed of every cause in the paper. , Yesterday. the Society of Painters in Oil and Water Colours, opened 'their Thirteenth Exhibi tion, at Spring Garden Rooms, and we are de lighted in being able to bear testimony to the ad vancement_ of the Art, by the beautiful speci mens.now brotight for Ward.

SMITH,' Mr. MINIM,' .Mr. and Mr. VARLI3Y, have all contributed largely to the collection—nrid some. admirable pictures will be found by EXhibitors in addition to the productions of the associated Members'. DIABOLICAL TTBNII'T. Last Monday night Some person or . persons ,placed.two large poles across the road at Chacewater, a few minutes be fore the High Sheriff's carriage passed along. The poles were placed in such a manner, that if one failed it was highly prObable the other would take effect. However , through t h e care fulness of the , driver (belonging to Mr. John Pearce,, - of Redruth), and the steadiness of the horses, the concussion, though violent, did not overturn the carriage, which having elliptic or grasshopper springi, was less liable to accident. The servants on the coach-box miraculously escaped being .killed. The Sheriff and Mr. Samuel Joh*" .were inside, and providentially escaped unhurt. Mr. Pearce, who resides at Chacewater, and to whom the poles belong,. is positive that the road was quite. clear ten minutes before the occue renee.„ and that the poles could not have been placed there accidentally. A young woman has stated, that She saw two men waiting near' the brat.wortsto en• Off when lb. 1.1411 A large reward has been offered, which, we hope, will have the effect of bringing the authors of this diabolical attempt to pitnishment.---(Cormvall On. tette, Satarduy THE DAY OF DRAWING APPROACGRS.-..-G. WEBB, ever mindful of the interest of his Friends, considers that he Merely does his duty by pointing, out to them the peculiar advantages of the present Lottery. Of the 14,600 Tickets which it contains, 10,098 will be prizes; among which are Pour Grand Capitals, Two of '20,0001. Money, Two of 20,0001. Consols, besides 24 Minor Capitals of 2,0001:, 1,000/., &c. attd 8,000 of the smallest Prizes entitle the Holders each to a Ticket in the succeeding Lottery; or the option of receiving 121. in Money. Yet notwithstanding these ex .raordinary benefits, by which the intrinsic value of the Tickets is increased beyond those of .any former Lottery, they are now on Sale at both Of We liars Fortunate, Offices, 9, Cornhill, and 17, Lodgate-street, at Eighteen Guineas each, and: Shires proportionately cheap; being lower than they have been for the last-twenty years* DREADFUL FIRES. On,Tnesclay last, about midni,:bt. the office hOuses-belonging to the farm of •Taym meg, Scot. Lind, the property`of the Earl ot nthsgioit, Were discovered by. 'the fisherinen . on •the the • spot; to he on tire. No time was i0..1 in giving the alarm to the, family, who, on. ono seious of their d.nger, and the Ireatlful c y which threatened their dwelling, were all !rill ied in profound: siefp ; but the flames had, by Oils ,time spread their ravages too extensively to be checked by the few hands who could be collected, and in a short time the whole of the byres, sta bles,-Ste. beCame a prey to the destructive element. The dwelling-house wits Saved, and no bottom lives were lost; though, we regret to add, 8 loirses, and an equal number ot cows, petished. This dreadful accident was occasioned by a servant girl :having carried, in the early part of the evening, a lighted candle into one of the byres, f% spark , fronr which is supposed to have fallen among sonic straw, and gradually , acquiring strength to have ut last set the whole premises on fire. A Gentleman who visited the spot, the day after the conflagration, mentions that it was truly melan choly to observe the various postures of the poor animals, as indicative ot the extreme agony of their'sufferings before death. • ANOTHItIt Ftaz.—On the afternoon Sattiri. day settnight, the buildings on the farm o f Htgh -lees; the property of the Duke of HANIILTOI.I, possessed by Mr. HAMILTOti as tenant, were dis Covered to be on fi re. From the dry state of the Weather for some time .before, and the 'strong' 'breeze at they. time, the Aortas spread with such overwhelming rapidity AS to baffle every endeavour 'to extinguish them .until the whole of the buildings were in ashes. The calamity did not end here, for the flames corn= municated with the farm-yard, and destroyed titirten stacks of oats and wheat. The whole of the household furniture, and the effects of the servants to a large amount, with twenty stones of flax and forty boils of potatpes, sherta the same fate, as well as seven head of cattle in: the byre, none of which could be saved.
