Otasoow, Fes. 3.—The herring fishers did very little
good yesterday in the Frith of Forth. The Queensferry
boats, in all, took only about 16,000, almost all of which
were.brought to town this morning, and offered at the
usual prices, Si. and 3s. 61. a hundred ; but the retailers
refused to give above 3s. for the best, and there were none
sold at 11 o'clock. The carters pay gs. 6tl. a }tundra
themselves, and they stated that they Could not bring them
so far for lees than from 6d. to Is. per hundred.
HERRIN* FISHING.—Monday was the most successful
day the fishers hate lied this season. They shot their nets
on the north coast of the frith, between Inch Michray and
Queensferry, and several of the boats caught upwards of
20,000, while few of them retnrned with less than 6,000.
The herrings were also larger than they have been gene-
rally found throUgh the season. They were sold to curers
Itis. per barrel. On Tuesday the fishermen set out with
!sanguine hopes of another take, but were completely dis-
!appointed ; and yesterday the storm from the south-west
prevented most of them from prosecuting their labour,—

AGAR moved that the answer in this cause should ore oi:

the solicitor in the cause. There were many cases in which idtt ir...-
%davit sworn before a solicitor in the muse had been ordered to be .

'hiite case of an affidavit, it was much .more imperative that op.

Mr. HORNE considered it quite unheard of, that the 11115V1161

ever occurred before ? .
IN RE °AIMEE.
Mr. SOLICITOR-GENERAL stated, that this matter was hp.
pointed to be spoken to to-day, on the point of costs. It was welt
known, in cases where lupines died, the Court—that was, Use
"•Chancellor—sitting in lunacy after the decease, dealt with
property according to his Lordship's.sliscretion, es to paying elf
costs and expenses; and in analogy to, that, it appeared to the
Learned Solicitor, that after the application for a commission was
refused, his Lordship.ceuld order the applicant Lo pgy the posts.
He understood that the practice. in the Ecclesiastic-el Court was,
invariably, in a case of a husband suing for the restitution of ma-
rital rights, or in a vase where a wile sued her husband, to
order the costa m be paid by the person suing, in. ceder to
enable the Other party to Make his or her detence. And in
this Court, though a parson apjalyiug here for a commis-
alon of lunacy, to issue against any individual, is not to be
considered as a suitor in a common legal proceeding, .ot is
a Chancery suit, yet he mutt be considered as appying to the
discreLun of the King's representative, on whose discretion. ho
throws himself not only in part but in the whole, tltet is, he de-
pends on that discretion, not only whether the commission should;
issue, but whether, if the commission shOuld be refused, costar
should follow the refusal. It eppcared to,the Learned Counsel
that this was clearly within the Ring's prerogative, and contr.
'quently in the discretion of his commissioner.; if it were not, is
was a most dangerous thing that a person should be at liberty to
make such an application as this had bean wider the assurance
that, taking it in the worst light, the application could only be
refused without the Court's interfering to award costs, however.
iniquitous the motives for applying might have been. lt this waft
the law, Mr. Solicitor-General would take good care that not many
days should peas, until he took the necessary steps of having at
established, that an individual making loch an application merely-
to gratify his spleen and vengeance, shall pay for it.
Mr. la TANS was on the same side. Ile understood when th.er
matter was last mentioned, his Lordship's difficulty in giving costal
in such a case as this was, that if he a*arded costs to be paid to
the wife by the husband, the money would still in reality be theft.
husband j,
His Loariente did certainly intimate that as a difficulty; btrt
on further consideration, he felt it necessary to ask, whether ever.
there wan an application for a commiesion of lunacy (putting this
relationship that existed here totirely out of the question) which
had beeq refused, and whets costs ware given? His Lordship did,
not recollect one.
Mr. Prams hied not looked for such a case, bot claimed th, fur.
thee indulgence of the Court to look into that.
His LORDSHIP granted the indulgence, and requested the Sr.
cretary in lunacy .(who had also, since this was mentioned before.
been locking into the lunatic record,) to make a deeper research
into lunatic antiquity.
Mr. Su ADME L L applied to his Lordship for permission to so-
persede, with costs,.a commission of bankruptcy intend stain,•a
Claudio Mark Angelo, by John Carew, and to grant a mew com-
mission upon the petition of Moses Lindo, one ut the creditors of
the estate. This case the Learned Council characterised no
very gross fraud and deception. In

Carew, at several difterent times, sums
2,33 W. which he had applied to the pay
house. But froin the affidavit of Mr.

compared, they were found to have been

say, they were written likewise in the /
at the same time ; that three of the b
were drawn, accepted, and receipted,
up a cash account; that, in the last
missioners, it came out that the

Tat circumstances, totally failed in p

From the examination of Mr. Carew before the Commission, which;
he would presently read fur the information of his Lordship, it app.
prated that this pious Christian, in the true spirit of the doctrine be
professed, had visited his brother in prison to condole with him
upon his misfortunes—to comfort him under his aftlictions--vws

But he must trespass upon the time ot Court to have this sass's
examination read. The petitioning creditor cannot tell where he
got the money t no person saw the notes t he could not tell any 06

borough had. since the year, 1714. introduced a practice which was
altogether contrary to the terns of the Charter, that of admitting
nou.rcaldents as Members of she Carporatien. The question there-

who had very extensive knoniedge of thc Boroughs geld Corpora,

the inhabitants were.. Ipso flock', members of the Corporation, but
he could not mention one. liis Lordship then enumerated the
venous circumstarces which in different Corporate places entitled a
person to be a freeman, and to sore at the election of a Member et
Parliament, but, he observed, it never did occur that the only
qut:itattion to acclaim such a tight, was the mere fact of the person
beta); an inhabitant householder. If this, therefore, were to be
now conceded, it would be estabtithitig a precedent that would be
followed by half the boroughs to the kingdom. It was his opinion
that they had no power to construe this Charter to bear such a
' mean inn as to entitle the whole cf the inhabitants to a vote, and their
' Lordships could not take upon themselves an authority which the
law had not vested in them. The affidavits before the Court did
not chow that the inhabitants were necessarily members of the Coe-
. potation, and they could not, therefore, put a construction upon
this Chatter. making this borougo different from every other in the
kingdom, 1 iz. by deciding that every inhabitant householder hod a
right to vote at the election for a Member of Parliament. For these
reasons he was therefore of opinion that the tole ought nut to be
made absolute.

The LORD CRIZte Jt.3.r tot at tide moment rose and left the
Court, in etuntetplenee of which Mr. Justice Bayley sttepenikd his
Judgment, and heard two or three 'notions of no public interest ;
after having disposed of them.
His Lonnsolo naumed--This Court is called upon to issue a
Plando•o4S, to be addressed to the Mayor, Burgrases, and Stewards
of the Borough of %Vest Looe, directing them to enrol and swear
in one Robert Beau,' at a resident or burgess of the said borough.
Now I cannot tell whether this is tin be addressed to the Mayor anti
Burgeasce, as Lord of the Court Leta, or as members of the Car.
poration. Soppo.ing It to be required to be addressed -to them as
Lord and Officera of the Court lint, then a mandamus would not
avail the patty applying, as far as regarded his being appointed a
bargees; for it was not necessary that the bosiness or the borough
should be transacted at the Court Leet, which was quite distinct
from the Corporation. But this confusion took place in conse-
quence of the same persons being entitled to held the Court as
formed the Mayor and Burgesses of the 'Borough. 'lf yod wish
him to be sworn in fur het purposes, we clo• not see What possible
benefit is to result to him by twins a mandamus, nor km I aeon
of any practice of this Court of directing a petition to be swim.
at a Court Leet. If KU Object be to have the oath of it&
glance administered to him, in this case we cannot direct 1'
mandamus to issue until the party hes applied at the Cowl
beet, and has been refined. But this rule is for haring the ,
writ directed generally, and, we enitnot therefore say whether it is toi
the Mayor aid !largesse:it as Lord of the Leet, to as members of A
the Corporation. We must then look to the applitntion, as it '
regards the party's right to have it directed to the Mayor anti Cot.
porattun. It is said thin he has not only a tight to be enrolled at
the Court beet, but that he has also tirig,lit to be enrolled under the
flirter. If therefore the mandamus is to issue in reference to his
right under the Charter we must look and see. tar that trust
depend upon the language of the Charter. In the Charter the words
were, that the freemen were to be •••• tenants and inhabitants" of
the borough, and that the Corporation should consist of one Mayor.
and twelve capital burgesses and freemen, befog inhabitants of to•
borough. It does not state. as alr. Merrewether seemed to think,
that all the inhabitants were to be burgesses ; the words being.
inhabitantstf the borough" were swords of qualification. and meant
only that beforear person could be made a member of the Corp*.
ration it was necessary that he should be an inhabitant. I take it

Jury, altheregh Lis ',mishit) had thourest otherwise.
The Cutler JUSTICE read his notes of the evidence taken at
the trial; after which he observed, that he had told the Jury that
this was net like a common action of slander, in which the very
speaking of the words which imputed improper conduct was eel-
deice of malice ; bin that ii had long been decided that the relation
betvieetf • master and itertnt was a privileged ease, and that it was
rot only maliciottely but falsely given. lie likewise told them that
it wait tam necessary to have direct evidence of the malice, but that
they must take into their consideraion that title character was
given 'after the servant herself had given warning to her mistrora
Air. Sergeant Wit.nt now vise to oppose the rule being made
absolute, and contended, that if it aftonld be established as law that
the Court .Houk set slide 'the verdict of a jury in a question of
fie!, *deb this was, because it would not hare come to the sante
condusdoe. it would usurp the functions of the jury, which would
become 'an 'expensive ineumbrar.ce, and much better dispeiseed
with. He shin contended that the character was false to the know-
ledge of the defendant. It had been stated that the count had given
a wrong interpretation to the term unsteadiness," when it was
said to be an innuendo with 'regard to the male ties. But what other
interpretation, he would ask, toifld he given to it ? That was the
term that a lady of Mrs. Cox!s rank in life would use to convey the
idea of conduct of a most improper description. and which would
render the plentirs residenee with young females improper. It
was dear that this was the sense in which Mrs Burnet undirstood
it from her ar.awer. This also most dearly showed the make e, for
;rhea the defendant law the construction which Mrs. Burnet pot
an her words, she never attempted to explain them and tell her
that sfie resat by unsteadiness" that the plaintiff had a year
before been missing 6:40 the house, at five o'clock in the mri ring.
tihe.never informed her that she had behaved with propriety since,
and had received presents for her good conduct. %Vial regard to
the circumstance of the plaintiff's being absent so early in the
' morning, it must hare bceo astiafactorLy explained at the time, or
Mrs. Cox 'mild not certainly have kept bey so long afteritarda.
if the fact had been correctly ataied to him. Burnet, she would net
hare refund to have Olken the plaintiff into her service. Mrs. Cox
had admitted that she had said something about her fakes hovel.
What was the lesson she alluded to it all ? Was it not to put the
pfaintiff in mired of the difference its the manner of living, of new
wants she had aciptired, anti how impassible it would be for her to
return ? lie (Mr. Si meant Wilde) did not call discharged set-
venni to substantiate his case t be called the servants who were now
living with Mr. Cos. and who must bare had every opportunity
Oflibterving whether the plaintiff had or had not ban wanting
in general steadiness. The charge. he must contend, was false and
inalichins in every respect. The language was mild. but it infused
the most deadly •tniom : it brought no specific charge against the
girl, but merely a general want of ste:uliness. There wait no fact
alleged which the girl might have had an opportunity of disprov-
ing : it could nut he said to be giving a fair character when the
proper encomium was withheld. One great diaolvantage which
aerearits had to bear with when they complained against their amuse
tens was, that the jury that was to toy them was itself rot-named of
masters, and consequently might he supposed to have some blip in
favour of the master; but concluded by hoping that the law
would not be atlin'udatered in such manner that the protection tit,
servants should be tlceiroyeil.
The hearing of the remainder of the argument was adjourned, its
coneertuence of the Learned Judges being obliged to attend at'
Chambers.
INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, WXDNESDAT, JAN. 9.

John Giles, of Crookham Crondall. Hants, was opposed by
Poi.Loc E. for two creditors named Walker and li arc.
It appeared by the insolvent's statement, that in November last
he made over his stock to Henna, his son-in-law. who was also his
imirneynm. fie lacing indebted to bun, Evans, for wages, got
51r. Hunt. of Odihnin, to appraise the working moil,. &c. to him
an a consideration for his debt. Previous to this he hid made over
his futniture to the same person, and under the same circumstances.
Evans was at present carrying on the business, and he (the insol-
vent) had no interest in it.
In his examination by Mr. IlnaTn, the insolvent stated. that
he had dealt Stith 'Ward, his opposing creditor, for thirteen years,
during which time he had paid him a considerable sew of mosey—,-
oh one UCCIVAIOII some receipts be htul formerly given were burned.
and Mr. \Yard had refused to send one for 301., hence he disputed
part of that creditor's chitin,.
The Cot: Tt T said, that however small the amount might beat
goods made away with. it was as offence wider the :lit of Parlia-
ment, and merited the observation orate Court ; the judgment of
which was, that he be confined fur three calendar months within
the' -walls of ibs pr!sun, fur fraudulently waking away with
property.

Langdell, a joerneymnin in the employ of Mr. Toplis, upholsterer,
St. Paul's Church-card, appeared on a summons, for charging 10s.
for making two drapers over pedestals, whereas, according to the
scale-book. he was entitled .only to 44. 2d.
Upon coming to the desk, the Alderman ailed the defendant if
he was willing that he si•Ould hear and finally determine the com-
plaint. Langdell replied he was not, because the Alderman could
not. understand and compare the degree of skill and labour, and
the, time occupied in making it sideboard according to different
models, and it *as by comparing the mice paid for one of a p!..'n •
construction, with that which it was contended now was directed to
be paid for a more diversified and elaborate piece of workmanship,
that he hoped* to show that as, 2J. was not the whole price, but an
addition to the price fur the labour in question.

ease; and *Mr. 'l'. produced his work-bouk, In which Lan4dell's

There had been no lens than two hundred horses otelen from those

WORSIIIP-STREET.
Yester.lay • Mr. Heels, a shortualter, attended to asrawer the
complaint of his apprentice.
The apprentice,- a boy of sixteen, attoed a saric:y of grievance.,
chiefly to the effect that he was not properly loilged, that his food
!was of bad quility, and iosidicient in gottatity, and that his wow
!Fotkid nut wit the trouble, or was incousyetent, to teach hint his

_
His testimony was In a great measure supported by a middle-
aged female who acensopanied him, and who predueed to the Ma-
gistrates two or three antall pieces or bread, by way of specimen,
of the meals that were provided for the coniplainsot, and which
were quite inituilicient fur a boy of his age.
The defendant declued most solemnly that the apprentice lied
never complained to hint of an inaullieency of food, that he Oirays
had as much as he wanted, and might have had more if he chose
to ask toe it, and that he was cutotimtably lodged. Al to the boy's
not being taught his business, lie had been apprenticed only se-
venteen months, and ;ho shoos which he (the tleteiolant) now wove
were made throughout by thin very apprentice, and he would dial-
. lenge any loan in tire trade to ptoduce a buy of his age a better
workman. Ile concluded. •• lam sure, George, you did not come
here of your own accord, for you know you always have as mach
CierWah as you have a mind to."
'f he apprentice, however. repeated his assertions; and the de..
(natant then changod his tune, and asserted that George t•ssaii
inmwrigible thief; that he could riot trust any thing within his
reach, sod could scarcely ever scud him on an errand without his
stealing something or other.
Mr. w uau—‘Vell, if he is the bad character yen represent
him to be, you had better get rid of him, and let his nada:nu/Ls be
cancelled.
The defendant, who seemed disagreeably surprised by this
proposition, begun to qualify his charge agsi .st the bee. and
said—v 1 assure your Worship I have no wish to part with the
bo v."
TwYrono—How are we to believe what .JCIA say, when
you make such a serious charge against your apprentice, net yet
shave so much anxiety to keep such *lverson about you ?
The Magistrate, then ordered that the indentures should be can-
celled, sad another master provided for the boy.
