LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, AloxpAr, APnIL V.

This being the day appointed to solemnize the anniversary of the
King's Birth•Uay, all the Judges were attired in their state robes,
and the King's Counsel in their Court wigs and silk gowns.

THE KING V. PARKER.
In this case. Mr. SCARLETT in a former Term moved for and
obtained a rule to show cause why a criminal information should
rot he filed against Mr. Parker, who was a Magistrate residing at
Colne in Lancashire, but who had also a brise, distant twenty
mile.. in the %Vest Riding of Yorkshire, for alleged corruption in
his office, displayed, as it wits said, by his illegally convicting two
unqualified personignamed Baldwin and Whittaker, in a penalty of
M. each, for coursing after game. The application was made on
the part of a Mr. Shaw. who was a qualified person, and who
stated that the two defendants, Baldwin and Whittaker, had been
unnecessarily obliged to go twenty miles to answer the informations
lodged against them, at the house of Mr. Parker in the %Vest
Riding of Yorkshire, when the matter could have been heard and
disposed of st Colne. Mr. Shaw accompanied them, and offered to
swear that Baldwin and Whittaker were coursing in his presence,
by his direction, and with his dogs; and he offered a rent-roll in
evidence, to prove that he was a qualified person ; hut Mr. Parker
refused to attend to such a statement, and declined receising Mr.
Shaw's oath that he was qualified.
Mr. Baounitast now showed cause against this rule, upon affi-
, davits which distinctly denied any corrupt mctive whatever and
stated that Mr. Parker, acting as he conscientiously believed right-
ly, hail rejected a rent-roll as proof of Mr. S'taw'a qualification,
because he thought he ought to see the title deeds, in order to satisfy
himself upon that head. Finding, however. he was wrong in this
respect, he took the advice of two eminent provincial Counsel, and
did not levy either of the penalties, cr commit the detendanta.
The Corny were of opinion no corruption was shown.
Mr. SCARLETT, in support of the rule, contended, that as it ap-
peared 3lr. Parker had brought the defendants upwards of twenty
miles, to his house in Yorkshire, although he might have deter-
mined on the inforniations where they were laid, if this rule was
discharged, it ought to be with costs as against Mr. Shaw.
The Coital' were of a different opinion, hut thought that, as
Mr. Parker had unnecessarily brought Baldwin and Whittaker
twenty miles, the rule ought to be diltharged without costs on
either side.

COLLINS V. GEE AND 011IER3.
Mr. CAMPBELL moved for the exertion of the summary juris-
diction of the Court. to compel the defendants, who were anomie*,
to pay to the plaintiff, another attorney. the surd of two guineas,
for two days' attendance on a trial on which be had been subptenaed
as a witness.
The Co ItltT said there was no precedent for the summary inter-
vention of the Court's jurisdiction in such a case ; an el, therefore,
they could not accede to the application.
TILE XING v. WILLIAM COOPER.
Mr. CURWOOD moved for a writ of habeas:corpus, to be di-
rected to the Gaoler of Shrewsbury, commanding him to bring up
the hotly of the abovenamed prisoner, charged wtth felony, in
having robbed a coach, travelling between London and Chelten-
ham, of a parcel of bank notes belonging to the Bridgenorth
Bank. The Learned Counsel moved, upon affidavits, setting up a
distinct alibi, and swearing that the notes lost were for 5!. and lig.
each, whereas those tendered in payment by the prisoner were
notes fur one pound each, and consequently could ❑ot be the notes
st)len.—Writ granted.

FATAL ACCIDENT iN RICHMOND PARK.—AS a Mr
Acheson, of Edinburgh, who was on a visit with some friends at
Brentford, was riding on Saturday in Richmond Park, accom-
panied by his daughter, he fell from his horse; he was promptly
conveyed to the Star and Garter, where he received every attention,
but he expired about five in the afternoon.
SUICID E.—A dreadful act of suicide was committed on
Saturday evening in Kensington Gardens, by a man at present un-
known. A report of a pistol was heard about 6 o'clock, by one of
the men stationed at the entrance gate next to the Palace ; but he
took no notice of the circumstance, conceiving that it proceeded
from the Barracks. On Sunday morning, three boys rambling in
the garden, in the woody part, between the eastern gate and the
Palace, found a man lying dead a short distance from the foot-path,
with a pistol grasped in his right hand. His pockets were searched,
and the only things found were a silver snuff-box, an empty purse,
and a pocket handkerchief, without a mark. There was nothing
which could afford the least clue as to the name or connexions of
the deceased.
RIOTS AT BLACKBURN, ACCRINGTON, AND OVER
DARWEN.-A number of exaggerated reports have been in active
circulation, with reference to disturbances in the town and neigh-
bourhood of Blackburn ; but, we are sorry to say, the ,statements
were founded on facts, and therefore we are denied the pleasure of
being enabled wholly to contradict them. The following account
may, however, be depended upon, as far as it goes :—On Tuesday
evening last, about seven o'clock, an express was received at
Blackburn from Accrington, requesting military aid at the power-
loom factory of the Messrs. Sykes, which was threatened by a
mob, and a party of the Ist Dragoon Guards were instantly des-
patched. On arriving at the required spot, they found that the
rioters hail dispersed, after breaking the windows or the factory
and those of a private house in its vicinity. In the meantime same
hundreds were coPecting in Darwen-street, and the Market-place,
Blackburn, who greeted their increasing numbers with loud and
frequent shouts. On the arrival of the market coaches from Man.
cheater, the windows were instantly demolished, and the passen-
gers (manufacturers of Manchester) get erely pelted with stones.
They then broke some panes of glass in the house of Mr. Kay, the
constable, and committed a similar outrage to a public-house in
Darwen-street, when it was deemed necessary to read the Riot
Act, and call out the remainder of the military ; after which the
tumult quickly subsided, and those alto had engaged in it peace-
ably retired. On Wednesday %Pimping, a youth named Barry un-
derwent an examination before the Magistrates, charged with
taking a part in the above proceedings, and was committed to the
Preston House of Correction. A man nameed Beetley. also, a
shoemaker, was held to bail for the like offence. In addition to
the above particulars, our Correspondent informs us, that shove
500 men had assembled near Over Darwen, with a flag flying as a
rallying point ; but as he has neglected to state the precise time at
which this occurred, we cannot speak more distinctly on the matter,
but sincerely hope that he has been misinformed.—Rollon

Espy: T.
The benign yet powerful properties of that most es-
teemed cosmetic, Howland's Kalydor, stands preeminent; it
thoroughly exterminates eruption, tan, pimples, freckles, redness,
and all cutaneous imperfection whatsoever; arrays the neck, hands,
and arms, in matchless whiteness; bestows on the complexion a
juvenile bloom ; diffusing a pleasing and refreshing coolness; re.
novates beauty when on the decline, realizes it where before absent.
and sustains it in pristine splendour to the latest petinds of lite ; to
mothers nursing their offspring it is essentially serviceable in heal-
ing soreness, and reducing inflammation, so frequently following
this otherwise pleasing pursuit of maternal affection. To Gems
tlemen, Rowland's Kalydor will be found an infallible specific in
allaying the smarting irritability of the lace, and will render shav-
ing (heretofore a painful, now) a pleasurable operation. That tt:e
Kalydor elicits these felicitous results, one trial will suffice to prove,
and satisfactorily establish its reputation. Prepared and sold,
wholesale and retail, by the Proprietors, Rowland and Son, 20,
Hatton-garden, London ; and by every respectable perfumer and
medicine render in wan and country.
