COURT OF TING'S BENCH, SATuaomi, 1.011.
In TIM NATTER OF ORITFITHs, ESQ. O. Tan COt-

PORATION •OF BRISTOL.
This was an applicatioo on the part of Mr. Grif-
fiths to the Court, for a smodoisers to he directed to
the Corporation of Bristol, ordering them to restore
turn to the situstrou of steward of the Sheriff's Court
at Bristol. from which, he contended, they had im-
properly and irregularly removed him. To the aecin•
'ooms the Corporation returned the following facts:
Mr. Griffiths, it appeared, was some years ego ap-
pointed to the office of steward of the Sheriff's Court
at Bristol, an office of very considerable importance,
Auld to which many judicial duties attached. In
1814 Mr. Griffith., in his character of steward, felt
necessary to .issue an order, founded on the charter
of the City, that Courtashould be held every Mon-
day alternatively, for trying causes sod granting
rules. In 1818, however, Mr. Griffiths was ap-
pointed one of the Magistrates of the Shad.
well Police-office. and had since been removed
to the new establishment in Mary.le-hone ; and
after this appointment took place in 1818. Mr.
Griffiths became negligent in his attendance;
and in 1819 the Corporation• came to a resolution,
in consequence of complaints of non-attendance,
which resolution was communicated to Mr. Grif-
fiths. Still Mr. Griffith, did not attend; and
though between Jane and September 1819, thirty.
seven Courts were held, Mr. Griffiths attended at
only five. The Corporation then adopted another
resolution; that if, iii future, Mr. Griffiths neglect-
ed to attend. two successive Court day., he should
be considered as liable to removal. Courts ware
• held on the Bth and 18th of November following,
at neither of which Mr. Griffiths attended; aid
he was ti. absent at several subsequent Courts;
which the Corporatioo, pursuant to their resolution.
declared the office of steward vacant, and proceeded
to a new erection.
Mr. Griffiths. upon his removal. applied to the
Court for a masidannu, ordering the Corporation
to restore him, on the ground of irregularity in
,his
removal ; and now addressed the Court in support
of his application, alleging that he was riot bound
to attend Courts held fur granting rules; and that,
although he had accepted the situation of a Police
Magistrate in London, still it dad not interfere with
• I,ls necessary, attendance in the Sheriff's Court at
Bristol, to discharge his duty there.
The Court, however, were decidedly of opinion,
the two offices were incompatible. The office of
Police Magistrate required almost uniuterrupted
attendance its The metropolis ; and it was clearly his
duty to attend all the Sheriff's Courts as Steward
at Bristol{ and if the farts steed in this return
• were true, they were sufficient to call for his re-
moval. There had been some irregularity in the
course adopted by the Corporation, but not such as
would justify the Court in interfering, especially as,
*if the facts stated were not correct, Mr. Griffiths
bad his remedy•in au action against the Corporation
for a false return. _ . .

: The nedndannes was therefore discharged.

ISSOLVENT DEBTORS' cum;
SATURDAY, MAY 11.

Joseph Peele Lowe, • tescher of mathematics,
came up to be beard un his petition to be dis-
charged, and was opposed by Mr. Pollock, on be-
. half of Henry . Qglevie Pennington, who had oh-
' rained domages against him in action for criminal
conversation with his wife. Mr. Pollock stated that
the Insolvent, inane part of his schedule, returned
Mr. Pennington a creditor for 4261. being the
amount of 'chmps and costs in the action; and in
soother part o( it he returned Mi. Pennington a
debtor for 100/. for boarding three of bis children
for four months, during which four months it sp.
loured he hid been living with Mr. Pennington's
wife,, who had pitted from her husband widet a re-
-6 wt.. ateld of separution. The. Insolvent, iu the
eiourae of his examination, said he cljd nether), at
the time he arrested Mr. Pennington:that his niter-
course with Mrs. P. had been discovered ; but ar-
rested him in cousequenee of Mr. divine, Mrs.
l'ennington's brother, who was her trustee to the
• deed of separation, having discontinued the pay-
ment of her unrmity.
The Intolvent's examination having closed, he ad-
dresaed the Court, find mated that he defended the
action brought against him by Mr, Pennington on
the principle that a husband living separate from
his wife could not support an sense for crier. cow.
and his couurel, relying on this legalohjecturn, bad
omitted giving evidence of Nets which could have
mitigated the damages. He intended to have
moved for a new trial, but, by the death of his fa-
ther. had been left destitute of the :means of de-
fraying the expense. The Court said they must be
boned by the verdict.
Mr. Pollock expressed hie surprise at the effrou-
tery with which the Ineoteent detailed mild defended
cooduct se disgraceful without a bluish oil his face.
The deed of separation that had been executed be-
tween Me. Pennington and his wife could be 110 its*.
nfiesition of the Insolvent's conduct. In the ease
• • of Chamhers and Coalfield it had been proved that
Croptain Chambers said his wife had quarrelled sod
separyted, and yet the defendant wee held liable.—
The Insolvent had been introduced to the woman
he seduced by her brother, as his friend. He had
followed her from place to place, and when she
went to be delivered of the fruit of her illicit inter.
course, he charged bee husband with the board of

. . • •
► her children, and arrested him tor it est debt ; and
he finished, by attributing
.in• his schedule the sc-
thin brought by Mr. Pennington to the vindictive
suggestions of Mrs. Penningion's brother.
The CouaT ordered, that, under all the circom-
stances of the case, the Insolvent should not obtain
his discharge fur 'wrier calendar months from the
date of filing his petition.
Thomas Aria, ei-devmst keeper of the House of
Correctuni, Cold Bath Fields, applied for his dis-
charge, sod was opposed ••n the ground of his oh-
taioing goods under fraudulent pretences. The
losolvent stated that he was a baker thirty years
ago ; since that time he had been governor of the
House of Correction seventeen yeses, but during the
last thirteen he hail been in no employment. tie
admitted that he had übtained credit by repreteolo
ing himself as having properly iti Buckinghamshae
to a considerable unwind, which, io fact, only now
heed 200/. He had also stated his having 7001. its
the fonds.
Several creditors stated that they were induced to
port with these money and goods through the pla+:
Bible statements of the Insolvent. One complaissed
that he discounted to hill for 40/. for which all he
received was one dozen of wine. The Court ob•
served, that the situation the Insolvent had filled,
and his general knowledge of the world, ought to
have Wight him to pursue a d►tfrteat line of con-
duct. Had he been a yoongor men, the Count
would have visited him cosh a longer ternrof impri•
sonment. Taking his age and infirmities into sc.
count, its judgment was, that he he remanded to
custody for eight months from the date of his pee

The turbulent spirit evinced at Monmore-green
colliery, continued to manifest itself in it greater or
less degree during the week. Ott Thursday a great
number assembled at Rough Hills, proceeded to
various acts of violence, and personally ill-treated
the manager of the works, Mr. W. Firmstone.
The military was in consequence called tit from
Wohrerhsuipton, when the rioters were dispersed,
end seven were committed to prison.
Oi the evening (says the Wakeehamptort
Chronicle) Mr. Littleton, who is Lienteriaut-Colonel
of the yeotniniry, arrived from London, to take the
command of the regiment, accompsmed by Mr.
E.• Monckton, Captain of the Teddesley troop,
which had been marched iota the town on the Wed-'
oesalsy. E.trl Talbot, Lord Lieutenant of the
County, arrived on Friday afternoon, cud remained
its the neighbourhood at the seat of Sir John ‘Vrot-
tesley, Bart. maul Tuesday, when he proceeded to
logestrie. The Earl of Dartmouth, Colonel of the
Staffordshire militia, was also present ; dud the
staff of the regiment, commanded by Captain
Alirsgrave, marched to Bilston.
Mr. Kimiersley, Member for Newcastle, and
Captain of the troop of cavalry, arrived on Sa-
turday, fur the purpose of tendering their services
if they were deemed iseces.ary. Several of the most
active or the rioters at Rough Hills on Thursday
hsviug escaped, warrants were obtained fur their
sppreliensicn, and it having been found impossible
for the civil power to take them in thirdly-time, it
was determined to rusk, au attempt to seize them
its the night.
In corisequence of this resolution, the Teddes.
ley troop of yeomanry, commanded by Linn-Cu-
' louel Littleton, was no motion by three o'clock on
Saturday morning, and scon after that time,
marched out, attended by a Magistrate, the Rev.
J. Clare, to the place of destination, Ettingsball-
lane, where many of the rioters were known to live ;
and according to previous agreement, they were
inet by Captain Musgrave and the Stall of the
Staffordshire Militia, together with a considerable
number number of special constables, and attended
by the Rev. Mr. Leigh, Magistrate, from Billiton.
In a few minutes the houses of the rioters were
surrounded, Mile of the principal were secured and
delivered rover to the civil power ; seven of whom
were "firmer& committed to Stafford. The ma.
gistrates (from a number of complairits buying been
made to them by colliers and stone miners, of their
