By the committee of the'whole House appointed to consider the Matter cif the Administration of Civil Justice in Scotland. erRDEFIED TO REPORT, That the Committee have met and considered the matter to them r,.terred, and have come to the fol lowing Resolutions, viz. Resolved, I. That it appears to this Committee that the in crease'of manutatitures; extension of trade, improve- ments of agriculture, and consequent multiplication of transactions, nave varied the nature and greatly increased the number of Suits brought before the Courts of Law ,in Scotland, and theme by Appeal into this House ; And that it has therefore become necessary that some alterations -should be.made in the. Establish latent of the Co►irts of Law in that part of the United Kingdom, adhering as much as possible to the forms and principles of the Laws of Scotlaid, and•utaiu taining invariably the true meaning and spirit of 'the Articles of Union. , 2. Tharit will greatly conduce to the better Ad ministration of Justice in the Court of Session, and wilt be riff the evident utility of Scotland, that the said Court instead, of sitting in one collective body of Fifteen Judges, shall sit in such number Of sepa-, rate Clwmbers as may be found most convenient ; and that the Lords sitting in such Chambers, respec tively, shall exercise the same fun6tions, and shall enjoy the same authority and.privileges, as are nOtv exercised and enjoyed by the whole Lords sitting to- - • gether.- • • 3: That in each of the said Chambers one of the. Judges belonging to such Chambers shall preside, - such presiding Judge to be appointed by His Majesty • to the said Office, during good behaviour. 4.

That if the Defendant shall, in whole or in part, deny the faas stated by the Pursuer, or shall in his defence make any averments, in point of fati, which shall subsecitiently be denied by the Pnrsuer, the Court or Lord Ordinary respectively, on the re quisition of either party, or the Court at their own discretion, shall order that the issue of fact shall be tried by a Jury, except in such cases as it shall be found proper to except from this rule. 7. That when it appears- to the Chamber, or tá the Lord Ordinary, reasonable that such • issue 'so dire6ted should be tried in that part of the country where the evidence can be most easily obtained, it shall be competent to remit the Cause to the nearest Circuit, to be, there fried by a Jury. 8. That - whenever, in the inferior 'Courts proofs . shall have lx. , en allowed, it shall be in the option of either party to apply to the Court of Session, iii (A- 7 der that the issue may be tried. by a Jury, it the Curt shall-so think fit :. But if neither party apply for the Trial by Jury, the . CauSe May he decided'by the inferior Courts, according to the-forms now in use, and afterwards in review by the Court of Ses sion by Jury, or otherwise as the Court shall think fit. 9. That it shall be competent to parties to com plain against verdids of Juries, that the. same were given contrary to evidence, or by misdiredion of* Judge sitting as Ordinary, or on the-Circuit, or pre siding in the Chambers. 10.

That when any judgment shall have been ' pronounced in any Chamber of the Court of Session, It shall be subject to feview in a Chamber of Re view, in which none of the Judges shall sit who belong to that Chathber whose judgment is to be reviewed ; and that the cause shall, in that stage, be . concluded by printed_ca . ses, and hearing of Counsel, in the manner and form obsen.led.in Appeal's' to the House of Lords ; such Chamber of Review to be constituted in such manner as shall hereafter be ap pointed by, 4a'of Parli'otpe.;nt. iv.. That no Appeal to this 'House from the Court. of Session be - competent, excepting against .the! judgments of the, Chamber of Review, 13. That no.

That all ; k:xtraCts in: every Court, .superior and /inferior, be abolished or diminished, as far as it shall be found possible; and that fur the execution of any Decree, or appealing therefrom, it shall in all cases be sufficient that there be an exemplification, signed by the Clerk of Court, containing the Sutnmous, Petition, or other Writ by which the cause was brought into Court, together with the Dek'nce, and the daferent Interlocutors, and final judg: neat, of the.

When this cause was called on,'neither Counsel nor Attorney were in attendance on ,behalf of the Prosecution. John Dale Romney Rouvillet, who as brought up from Ilchester gaol by Habeas Corpus, immedi ately appeared on the floor of the Court, announced himself as the 1 5 rosecutor, and ,addressing his Lord ship, said, " Last night I received a letter from my Attorney, Mr. William Hollamby, and another at half past eight this morning, returning to me the briefs in this aaion. My Lord, thus surprised and obstruaed by the condud of Any Solicitor, it is not in my'power at this moment to proceed ; and I hope, under the circumstances, it Will be allowed that the cause shall stand over until to-morrow." An 4idavit was delivered in, and annexed to - the copies of the letters.from the Attofaey. In the first he begged leave to have nothing more to do with the cause,,adding, that he had no obje&ion to.deliver over the Papers to whoMsoever the Prosecutor should appoint : the second inclosed the papers and and said, " As you will have all your witnesses ready, I'setid the briefs that you may proceed in the cause.',' The. affidavit also stated, that Mr. READER was engaged as Counsel, and that Mr. JklcILL was ap plied to as leadhig Counsel. Mr. READER. —" My Lord, I think my name has been used improperly. I was offered the brief, and seeing no Gentleman appointed to at with me within the bar, I declined interfering. On my so doing, the Prosecutor put it into the coach in which I was proceeding to Guildhall, and assured me Mr. JExyl.r. would be the Leader, It consists of 37 sheets, and, if I am at all to interpose in the business, I atn certainly by no means prepared at the present time." Lord ELLENBOROUGH (to the Prosecutor.)-.--" It cannot be tried now. How came your'.Attorney to abandon the cause ?" Alr.GAtuow.—" This than (the Prosecutor) was to be brought up by Habeas Corpus from a country gaol ; very early in the term he was apprized that the Cause would conic On, and yOur Lordship will determine if he is entitled to-ally indulgence." Lord ELLENBOROUGH.—." the Attorney has left him in the lurch, there cannot be much incon venience in bringing it on , to-morrow," PEMBERTON V. PEMBERTON. This was an issue dire6led from •the Court of Chan ters-, for 'tie purpose of establishing, 'or rendering invalid, a Will, alledgel to be. that of 0-Wen Smith of Condover Park, Berksliire: The question had been twice tried before, and a verditt had been fonnd, on both occasions, for the Plaintiff. The dry legal iniuiry was this : het her the Win itself was cancelled before a certain codicil ) . -purporting .to be of that Will, was executed. Much of', the learning of tl* Bar Was concerned in this cause ; Messrs: GAltow, MIiIVES, and WALsoN, for the Plaintiff; Sir V. iCiuss, and Ilies'srs. TOPPING and DAUNCEY for the l)efendant, assisted by several Gentlemen fl'om the Court of Chancery. A Mrs. Carey, alias Mrs . . Lo gan, a Lady of uncommon elegance'and beauty, ar rayed in Ml the embellishments.of Parisian taste, was ,principal Witness, she having lived with the testa tor, and being with him at the time of his decease. The Will had been deposited in a closet adjoining to.. the 'splendid library, of Condover Hall, ..and: the codicil was in a writing-table of the. same apart fluent. The Rev. F. Layton was examined as to the ta lents of the testator, with the view to ascertain if, from. his gCneral knowledge, he was acOninted with :the legal efieet of his own ads,- as the Will was in two parts, the one of which. had been destroyed.— The Witness said, that Mr. Owen Smith Owen was educated at Winchester School ; that he afterwafds went to' College; and that, in the ,earlier , part of his life, he was much devoted .to_ literary pursuits, and that in lAis manners he was an accomplished and per fea Gentleman. Being interrogated as, to his vera city, he said, that he was greatly in the habit of self .contradialiOn, and he 3.vas sorry to say crf a deceased friend, that . he ftequently affirmed the dire& con trary one day of what he had asserted the day pre . ceding. Lad ELLENBOROUGH—" I thought, Sir, you ilk', that the testator-was an accomplished and per lea Gentleiran ?" Mr. Forrester Layton—" Yes, my Lord, with this exCeption to that chara6ter." - Without detailing the whole of the evidence, we ;ball content durselves with the abstract of the ques tion, as Stated by the NOble and Learned Judge. . Lord ELLENBOROUGH.--" This is an issue directed from the Court of Chancery, to try if Owen Smith Owen, by a certain writing, devised certain estates. The Will is executed in duplicates ; the one part remaining with the testator, the other deposited with Mr. Fdward Pemberton, of Shrewsbury. I concur With the law, as laid down by the Learned Counsel for the Defendant, that when a Will is made thus in duplicates, the alteration of the one part is higally considered the, alteration of both; and if one part be destroyed; then the other is to be considered as invalid and nugatory. But when a Will is cancelled, it k possible that its validity may be restored : it may be shewn that a man,• intending to destroy a worthless piece of paper, threw his owu Will. into the fire ; .it may be proved, that after the solemn execution of his" testament, intending to apply sand•to the signa ture,he cast the contents of the ink-stand over tie. in strument ; so that there must not only be the aU of cancelling, but there must also be the animus.cancel ia'di. In this cae, : tlie . i#ll,:is aetitally cancelled ; that is, one part, which, the construction of lawi, as absolutely clestrOys the counterpart. as if that also Jiad.been cancelled in the same manner; and . if this took place after the Codicil was executed,. the etif,ro Will is swept away. , The material point, then, for your consideration is,- at what period .the 'Wilt was cancelled, with relation to the time when the Codicil waS executed; for if the Will were cancelled prior to the executionof the Codicil, the Will is again restored by the Codicil: 'And I hereby confirm the same Will,' are the concluding words of the Codicil; so that the publication oftheone is a re-publication of the other. "—[His Lordship here entered into the pfirti culais of the evidence, as far as_they were. applicable to this question, applying, as he proceeded, the prin- Ciples of common sense and natural reason to the fads of the cased The Jury having: retired for ten minutes, returned with a \Tali& for "the Plaintiff. • Lord ELLENBOII.OiTGH—" The .question left to the consideration of the Gentlemen of the .fury is this :- if the cancelling- of the Will • took place before the Codicil was executed ?" _ _ The FOREMAN Of the JURY---'f My Lord, we con sider the cancelling of the Will to have been prior to the COdicil." STENNET V. EEESTON LONG, ESQ. •-• The Plaintiff is a Lessee of, the city - of London, for the_ landing and shipping of the of Aliens.; the Defendant is Treasurer of the London Dock. Company ; and the sole question was, whether, on. 00 bags of wool, landed at the quay of the London Dock Company, ,the Plaintiff was entitled - to the cus tomary charge of Alien Porters under his lease ? The Clorter .of the City in the time of Charles I. was -read, recogning"a . preceding Charter in the 3d year of'. Henry VIII. Among the witnesses brought forward was a igr. Lash, aged 8 , 6 years, who was almost blind, and entirely 10 - st the use of his limbs. He deposed to 'the right. of .the Alicn Porters to the charge upOu Janding the goods . of Aliens, fromilatcliie Cross to Iron Gate, through a period 0157 years. 'On an obje&ion being taken to' the words of the declaration, it was-agreed that a' nonsuit should be entered, subject to a case to be, argued next Term. , Mr. ADAM (for the Defendant)—" With liberty, My Lord, to turn the case into a special yerdi6t. - - Lord ELLENBOUOUGH—" Yes, if the Court think tit."

Moses Clarke, a Revenue Officer, was inditied for stealing a quantity of Dutch prize tobacco from on board the, Brig 'Speedwell" in the River Thames. • ' . . The principal Witness that appeared for the -pro secutiOn was one• Jeremiah Pool, a waterman, who swore that he recewed about six 'pounds of tobacco from the Prisoner. He afterwards sold it eta pub, lie-house for only the sum :of -12 s- The Nate and another Witness, who were, to have, proved the. fad of the s Prisoner- having unlawfully taken the tobacco, were unavoidably'gone on another voyage. The RECORDER stated to the Jury, that he did dot-think the evidence of this man, who was evi- . dentlyf an accomplice, without any thing el,se to cor roborate his statement, was sufficient to convia the Prisoner. The Jury then found him—Not Guilty. • The Prisoner afterwards attempted to say some thing about-'his-,,charader having snffered by thi4 prosecution. But thellEcoßnEtt observed, that he might think himself, very happy that the trial had terminated as it'did, as he could not suppose that the smallest doubt of his guilt remained on the mind of any man in Court, though he . Could not be legally convided. The_Prisoner was then taken from, the Bar. . . Rose Kite and Cuthaiine Drogard were indi&ed •fot.' a highway robbery op a, journeYmati tailor. It appeared that the Prosecutdr Was,somewhat intoxi cated, that he went .into Dyot-Street, St. Giles's, that the Prisoners tumbled him down, ~and took frown his person a key, a thiMble , and one shilling 'in 'silver. The:Jury returned a verdid 'of—Not Guilty. Three were conviaed of misdemeanours, and 6 were acquitted.

The following remarkable circumstance lately oc currcd,at South-,Hill, the seat of the 'Right Hon. G. Canning, in Windsor Forest : some boys found a nest of young squirrels apparently not more than ;a week old; on dividing their prize, one of them fell to the lot of d lad, - son of the "Steward, 'which he conveyed home; on laying it down on the floor in the kitchen,a cat that had recently kittened sprung forward, caught it in her mouth, and to the sbrprize and mortification, of the boy, carried it off. Six. weeks afterwards, on, removing some straw in a barn, a litter of kittens was discovered, with the young squirrel, in a much im proved state, amongst them. One ,kitten 9nly was preserved, which the, cat nourishes with the squirrel ; and what seerns extraordinary, she appears far more attentive wile stranger than to her own offspring.
