The above statement was brought to our Office
last sight, and will be found, no doubt, in the
other Papers of this day. We insert it, although
we consider its contents very incorrect. In the first
place, the report which appeared in Tun Bettina
Pius was neither false nor garbled. It was not a
statement of the transactions between Doctor Hume
and Lieutenant-Colonel Churchill, but merely a
report of the examination at Bow-street. the sub-
stance of which was fairly given in this Paper,
and most of the Papers which we have seen. Se-
condly, no clear and satisfactory investigation could
have takeo place before the Officers of the Guards,
because uo examination can be clear or satisfactory
where both parties have not been heard, and we
may venture to assert, from the tenor of the above
advertisement, that Doctor [fume was not heard
before this self-constituted tribunal. Filially, it
was expressly stated that no disposition to meet
Dr. Hume was shewn until after the pieties had
been bound over to keep the peace at the instatice
of the immediate relatives of Lieutenant-Colonel
Churchill. How the Officers of the Grenadier
Guards can reconcile this with the assertion that
every possible measure was adapted by the Lieut..
Colonel to enforce • meeting from the moment of
the oasis,* letter, we are at it lass to conceive.
We. locoweed'', 'ate not" surprised at Ilse anxiety of
there gentlemen to extricate their brother Officer
from the awkward situation in Which be is placed,
sad to this anxiety we attribute the manifest errors
in the above statement.

IlAirr stated this was at motif sat

Narwhal* before him Mat the Defessdast 'should
payinto Court the sum of 'l,OOOl. the third oltlie
proceeds of the profits of the sixth voyage Of the
ship ..flioAmoad. It appeared that the Plaintiff
sow -owner of one-third of the ship, and the
I:Dellattawat *f the other two-thirds, and that the
'latter Was the ship's husband. On her sixth
'voyage she bad made a 'profit of 3.000!. one-
third of which sum was claimed by the Plaintiff.
The Defendant afte•wards chartered her for a
seventh voyage to the East India Company, to pro-
ceed from the port of London to the East Indies
and back. The Plaintiff of to her pro-
ceeding on the seventh voyage, and compell-
ed the Defendant, by en application to the Ad-
miralty Court, to give ham security for his share
of the vessel. in ease she did not return to the
port of London. The Defendant, in his answer,
set fortb, that he had expended upwards of 3,0001.

Ds the repairs of the ship before soy application
was made by the Plaintiff to the Comet of Aduoi-
►alty, and that the ►epairs were merle with the
knowledge of the Plaintiff. The Learned Counsel
contended. that the security given by the Defend-
ant to the PI 'ff, under the order of the Adini-
relry'Court, would he cancelled on the return of
the Ship to the port of London, as the intention of.
It was only to secure to lute his third share in her ;
be was not entitled to any pa►t of the profits she
might make on the voyage, nor was he liable to any
part of the loss she might sustain from having been
sent on the voyage, and of roam he wus not an-
swer•b:e fur the repairs of the ship necessary for the
voyage. The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion,
after hearing these circuinstaeces, that he could
wet order the money to be paid into Court. He
(the Learned Counsel) trusted that his Lordship
would be of a different opinion, and grant the order.
Mr. Cl:melt followed ou► the same side.
Mr. HEALD. Counsel for the Defendant, said,
that the Plaintiff asked by his motion for money to
he paid into Couit which was not in being. The
Defendant in no part of his answer admitted that
he had such a sum iu his hands belonging to the
Plaintiff; and to raise an equity for the purpose of
the motion, it was necessary that such an admission
should be made in the answer; it certainly did
admit that the Plaintiff was entitled to 10001. out
of the profits of the ship for the sixth voyage ; but
that that sum was expended for the necessary re.
pairs of the ship for the seventh, or the present
voyage, which repairs amounted to 3,7001. and
they were done with the consent of the
The ship .as chartered by the Fast India Com-
pany in the month of January, 1820, with the
knowledge of the Plaintiff, and he advertised for
sale his third share of the ship, stating that circum-
stance. The repairs of the ship were made in the
months of April, My, ■ad the begiening of June,
and it was not until the 20th of June, when the
Ship war actually Under weigh in the River
to proceed on her voyage, that the Plaintiff applied
to the Admiralty Court for the security, and when
the Admiralty ordered a survey of the ship, for the
purpose of enforeirig the security, the surveyors
valued her as she stood, equipped, with all the re.
pairs. He therefore contended, that if his Lord-
ship granted the. motion, the Plaintiff, on the return
of the ship, would have the benefit of tl►e repairs
without having paid a shilling towards theta. it
was tree that the Plaintiff would not be liable for
any repairs that might have been mode imbseqoent
to the application to the Court of Admiralty, but he
was answerable fur those made previous to it, with
his knowledge. The Court, he was convinced, would
not permit a person holding a share of a ship, as
the Plaintiff did, to waituntil all the necessary repairs
of the vessel were completed, and she under weigh,
for the purpose of proceeding on her voyage, to
take advantage of the value of the repairs, by get.
lino' • security to warrant the return of the ship,
that he might have the benefit of them in the
amount of the security ordered by the Court of
Admiralty, without having contributed cow shilling
towards the expep.se of them. Under those cir-
cumstances he had no doubt but his Lordship
would be of opinion that the decision of his Ho-
nour the Vice-Chancellor' was right, • unit that the
present application ought to be dismissed with
CuSIS.
Mr. JOSEPH MARTIN followed.
Mr. HART replied.
The LORD Csi*CELLOR observed, that hie pre.
sent opinion was that the Plaintiff had waited too
lung, by allowing the ship to be repaired, to en-
title him to ►elief in that Court. It was highly
necessary that the proceedings of the Court of
Admiralty, if, such cases a, the one before him,
should be fully known: for the Court ought to
be careful not to go further than the Admiralty
Court would. He would take un opportunity of
seeking that information front perhaps the best
source, seal if auy thing was cominunicuteil to him
which lie thought ought to make him alter his pit.

not mention the case again, they were to consider
that the motion was refused, with coats.

BUSINESS OF THE COURT.
ON the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE coming into Court,
he intimated that it wus not the wish of the Judg►s
to extesel their sitting to-day to a late hour. Any
thing which would take time, the Court wished to
stand over till their adjournment day, which was

Court had mined a IMMIMMIMMI to examine three
persons as whop resided at Buenos Ayres.
Mr.-DIMWIT. on a 'former day, had obtained a
rule to spew cause why the comusiasioa should not
be set aside, en the ground that one of the wit-
newer, named Dyson, bed arrived in England.
•Mr. Scsurarre news opposed the rule on affi-
davits, which stated, that although Dyson • had
arrived in England, he was in such a state of all-
ness and debility, at Bath, that be could not be
examined.

COLONEL BATLEY v. THZ BUIRSHAL OF THC

The COURT braid Couusel on both
lerday.
The LORD CHIPIF Janice new said that the
Court had pertmed the affidavits on both sides with
great attention. it appeared that all the matters of
trd injury to Colonel Bayley took place in
,December last, and the affidavit of complaint was
vith•doted till the July following. As to that part of
ollbetromplaint the Court were of opinion that it had
'been satisfactorily answered, and thought the
tidarslial had acted discreetly in not bringing the
~parties before him, fur although lie might have

prison ; yet it could hardly be urged as matter of
complaint that he had taken a more lenient course,
and one by which the peace of the prison was effec-
tually preserved. Another complaint was that the.
Moralist had not immediately dismissed Pool, the
keeper of the coffee-house; but it appeared that he
did immediately reprimand, and ultimately dis•
L Missed him. The Court thought the Marshal
might have done right had he dismissed him snore
promptly; but some notice might be thought re-
quisite, and, therefore, the Court did not thick that
was ground of complaint, more particularly as
the fact of the dismissal of Pool was not brought
before the Court in Colonel Bayley's affidavit.
Another ground of complaint was, the turnkeys situ
other officers having apartments in the prison which
they did not themselves occupy. Considering the na-
ture of this prison, something, it seemed, must be left
to the discretion of the Marshal; but the Court
prol.med that the Master should visit titeprisen,
and inquire into the nature and necessity of the
practice in question. and report to the Court there.
on, who would then mak/Lana order as should
seem necessary. With respect to the complaint
that the Marshal did nut reside within the walls•of
the prison, though he had laid much before the
Court to excuse what had been done, yet the
Court thought the statute was imperative, and
therefore ordered that he should in future reside
within the prison. or the rules thereof. The Calif
thought it but justice to the Marshal to aay'thst
from all they knew of him, both judicially sod
extrajudicially, he was a very meritorious officer,
attentive end considerate to all, and most charitable
to the poorer prisoners under his care. With
respect to the costs of the application, all the mat•
ters personal to Colonel Bayles, had been swishier.
torily answered. Very short uffideeits would have
been sufficient on the general matters, had they
been presented to the Court unmixed with the per-
sonsl complaint, and the Complainant would then
have been entitled to costs, but under all the cir-
cumstances the Court did not think the justice of
the came required that Colonel Bayley should .be
allowed his costs.

We learn that 4a Tuesday SHAAPI tendered
another bill to the Middlesex Grand Inquest against
the Proprietor of the News, which shared the sinne
fate as its predecessors—it was thrown out. The
bill was founded on comments on former bills, in-
serted so the /Yews of the glib of last October ; the
same alleged libel for which ,HARPS, the other
day, swished to hold Mr. PutePs to bail'at Dow-
street. This makes the seventh attempt which
SHARPE and his Company have turtle against Mr.
PHIPPS, all grounded on the insertion of Mr.
WAITHMAN'S speech. SHARPB has preferred five
bills, the Bridge-street Society one, and there is
besides the llow.strett application.
