YORKSHIRE BANKS.

The public will learn kith great pleasure that the re-
port of the Scarborough Bank of Mesjis. Woodall, Tin-
dall, Cooke, and Co., and the Beverley Bank of Meson.
Bower, l)eusbery, and Co. having snide a temporary sus-
pension of payment, is altogether unfounded. Both these
highly respectable houses, notwithstanding the ardent
runs of last week, arising from the stoppage of a neigh-
bouring bank, paid every demand upon them with
the utmost promptitude, and the Scarborough Bank kept
open their doors daily during the run several hours
beyond the usual time. Participating, as we do most sin-
cerely, in the general satisfaction at the unimpeachable
stability of these establishments, we cannot but regret that
we should have given currency to the injurious rumour,;
anti have only to urge, in extenuation of the paragraph in
onr last paper, that the report of the suspension was so ge-
neral here, anti our information, as we conceived, so au-
thentic, as to divest our minds of all doubt on the subject;
at the same time we must express our obligations to the
gentlemen constituting the firms of both the Scarborough
and Beverley Banks, for the indulgence and liberality with
which they have received our explanations.
NORTH RIDING BAN 16.—We stated in our last paper
that the issue of the affairs of Messrs. Tissues and Co. of
the Nlalton Bank, would be a bankruptcy, but are now
glad to inform our readers we find thatit is not likely to
be the case. An examination of their accounts has taken
place, and we understand the creditors pre so fully satis-
fied, that the assets of the house, exclusive of the private
property of the partners, are amply sufficient to satisfy
every demand in lull, and have so just aniopinion of the
honour and integrity of the-parties, that it the general
wish the parties themselves should wind up the affairs.
We refer to two circulars in our paper on this subject, and
are well informed that the House rapidly pokeding to
liquidate all the demands upon it.
SADDLUWO ItT II BAN K.--ln consequence of the favour-
able statement of the affairs of this batik, which we pub-
lished last week, a meeting of the creditors of Messrs.
Ilarrop, Lees, and Brown, has taken place, when it was
unanimously agreed that the concern should be wound up
by the firm, under the inspection of seven of the creditors
as a committee of trustees.—Leeds hitt igencer.

K ING's Co c a° Wia.—Aineiig the ancient customs
of England, which have long since sunk into disuse, was a
very absurd one, and which, however ridiculous, was con-
tinued so late as the reign of George I. During the season
of Lent, an officer denominated the " King's Cock-crower,"
crowed the hour every night within the precincts of the
palace, hist* of proclaiming it in the ordinary manner.
On the first -Ash-Wednesday after the accession of the
House of Hanover, as the Prince of Wales, afterwards
George 11., was sitting down to supper, this officer sud-
denly entered the apartment, and proclaimed in a sound
resembling " the cock's shrill clarion," that it was past
ten o'clock. Taken thus by surprise, and very imperfectly
acquainted with the English language, the Prince mistook
the tremulation of the assumed crow as some mockery in-
tended to insult him, and instantly rose to resent the af-
front, nor was it without the utmost difficulty that his in-
terpreter could make him understand the nature of the
custom, and assure him that a compliment was intended,
according to the Court etiquette of the times. From that
period, however, the custom has been discontinued of warn-
ing the Court by the symbol which called back St. Peter
to repentance ; and Princes and Courtiers have been kft to
the voice of reason and conscience alone.

• SUIC Thursday morning last, Henry nowlan,
a private of the 6th Praeooon Guards (Inniskillens) now
lying at the barracks in Hultne, put a period to Ids exist-
ence by shooting himself through the body with a pistol.
It appears that he had been above 23 years in the regiment,
and had throughout that time maintained an excellent
character ; hut on some account or other, he had ab-
sented himself from the barracks during the whole of
Tuesday night and Wednesday, and did not return
until nine o'clock on Wednesday evening ; when he
appeared exceedingly depressed, and stated that there
was spine disagreement betwixt himself and the sur-
geon. In the morning he rose about a quarter before
seven o'clock, and went out at the barrack gate, tell-
ing the centinel that he
.expected he should be put in the
guard-house. In about three minutes afterwards the sen-
tinel heard the report of a pistol ; and it appeared, on es-
atirination, that the unfortunate mat, had gone to the enil
of the lane leading towards Hulme Ball, where he had put
his large pistol to his breast, and shut himself exactly
through the heart, the bell passing out under the left
shoulder-blade. He was found lying on his back, quite
dead, and the pistol lying about three yards from blfil•

COURT OF CHANCERY, SATranir, MANCI 4.

NINO or SPAIN P. MACHADO AND MENDIZADAL.
fc this care. his Majesty Ferdinand VII. King of Spain, and
two Crommissiowers, under a Convention of 1822. between France
a:AI Spain, were the plaintiff's; and Mr. Machado. the Receiver
appnintsd adder • Commission which arose nut of the Convention
ut
.1822, and 31r. Mendizabal, were the defendants.

TY* iicitscrron-Geneam. stated, that he appeared on the
part of the plaintilrs, and his application was for an injunction to
entrain the defendants from drawing out the sum of Illtl,ooo/.,
placed in the hands of the Prothonotary of the Court of Common
Pleas; and also to restrain the defendant, 31endizabal, from pro.
feedlot in any action against Mr. Machado, with respect to the
sum in question. The beamed ztolicitor proceeded In state, that
the sum ofilft,ooo/. was in Exchequer bills, and that the object was
be preset the misapplication of these funds.
Mr. SUGOCY, who was Counsel nn the other side, wished the
question to be postponed until the d flnliJants had had an opportu-
nity of answering the allidavits which had been tiled. Perhaps
the station might, without inconvenience, stand till next seal,
the defendants undertaking that nothing should be done in the
mean time,

The Soneteoa-Gertreat objected to any delay, and sob.
mined that sufficient data had been allowed to answer the affida-
vits. Ile then proceeded to detail the principal facts of th
as they appeared front the bill and the affidavits filed in support
of it. Wises the general settlement of Lurope took place, in 1814
tied 1816, treaties were entered into at Paris is the ntunth of May
of 1814. and the month of November in the subsequent year. By
these trestles it was stip•lnted that severel large aunts of money
should be paid by the French to the Spailith Government, as •
renstatiun for the limes which tho sui.jecte of the King of Spain
had stotained during the period of die Revolution, through plum.
der and sets of violence committed. In 18:2, il subsequent treaty
was entered into by these powers, under which the French Go-
vernment set un a counter cation airtime the Spaoish Govern-
mem, thereby greatly reducing the original debt due. Commis.
signets were subsequently appointed to inquire as to what persona
sure 'ended to indemnity for LtAtta time sustained; and in Alarch
111/4, Mr. Alaehado was nominated Receiver of those sums which
were afterwards to be distributed according to the directions of
the Comminioners. In this mach', Mr. Machado received a sum
of *COW from the French Government, and it was invested in
the French Government Securities. Subsequently, in ennsesuznce
of tha Revolution which broke oat in Spain, and the King of
Frame having lent • his assistance to the King of Spain, to re-
mote him to his throne, and the Government of hie kingdnni, the
/retch army MIS introduced into Spain, and a dispoittion wss
Caen etioreet by the French Government to raise a lien upon
'Ng 40U.00,11. so paid, as a means of reimbursement for the nil.
limey expenses (hoe 'revered. Mr. 31.ichado, however, was alive
ta the intent mis of the French Government, and Inst no time in
selling the French Stock, anti carrying the produce to England.
Me. Machette, like many other foreteller., bed found England to
be the safer plies fee the preservation of the money entrusted to
lan care, and had even no objection to place himself under the
protection of the Court of Chancery. Whatever it might hive
Oyu:here, it appeared that in foreign countries the Court of
Chancery had no bad name ; and even in this country he was
glad to see that it was approaching to that reputation which it re.
ceved and deserved previous to the late temporary irritation. It
further appeared, from the statements in the bill, that Mr. Ma-
chado having brought the money to this country, was directed by
the Spanish el i niattr mother it in the hands of the Rank of England.
Hr. Mandleabal, the other defendant in tt.is use. having sonic claim
against Mr. Machado, to the amount of 120,0/. commenced an
action against him in the Comet( Common Pleas, and put him
wider an :tryst for the money. Under these circumstances, Mr. Ma-
chado applied to the Comet of Common Pleas to know how to act,
and he was directed by that Conn to pay strum of 84.000/. into the
heeds of the ProthonOtaey. It appeared that this ne.ooo/. was a
part of the money which belonged to the (Internment of Spain, for
the purpose of distribution to those subjects who had sustained in-
jsey doting the French Revolution. 'file Learned Sedition sub.
mined that Air. Mendizabal had no more right than he (the Soli.
eimr-Geortal) had to the 88,600/.. and that he might to be restrain.
ad from touching the money. Mr. Meech:abet, for any thing he
knew to the cameral, might have a very goal claim against the
Government of Spilt, or against Mr. Merited°, or against the
Kir, of Spain himself, or against any 1-nly else, but he could have
ea tight to lay his hands upon write; which were bound by the
most solemn treaties to be applied to' particular purposes there de.
iteribed, sit. the reparation of thou whose property hal been injor-
?Ai at.J destroyed during times of anarchy and bloodshed. This,
rho, was the case he had to submit to the Codrt, and be appre.
hended on sufficient answer could be given to it. Whether the de-
feadact. Mr. Machado, had acted rightly or wrongly, was no
Werthe question before the Come. It was of little importance
bo had or had not lent himselt to Mr. Mendizabal. It
be a breech of honour find Rood faith',-but It did not affect
th rpoint now under diecuesion. The money did not belong to the
Wig of Spain hnrrtelr, or to the Spanish Government, but to those'
we., made out their claims fur comp neat on, and in equity and in
late Mr. Machado could only be considered as the trustee for those
parer" Ile would not say if those individuals, thus claiming
caimpeoution under the connniseion, were to sue the King of Spain
In this ('nurt, whether his lendship could make any order upon it.
That was another point, which, as he conceited, did not affect
this question. Under these circumetanees„ therefore, it was, that
hoes prayed that both Mr. Alachado and 3lr. Alendisabal be re-
strained from taking this money out of the Prothonotary's bands.,
and that Mr. Alendizabal be restrained from proceading in any
gem for the recovering the sum in question. If that Gentleman
had any claim upon the Spanish Government, or against the King
otri, his Alsjeaty the King of Spain only desired that be
s'im eitablieh the fact, and he had DO objection to answer him its
the English Court of Chancery. All that was now prayed was,
skid this fund, so to be appropriated in compliance with the trea.,
the referred to. should not be taken from its present custody.
' The Loan CHANCEL um asked, what was the nature of the
Senna brought against Mr. Machado ?
Air. Wuk AT ezr, who was with the Solicitor-General and Mr.
Shed well, replied, that it was an action for money had and re.
retelved.

Mr..%t Ann r Lt. rend come extracts from affidavits filed in pup.
pest'of the bit:, be which it appeared, that the whole sum sold out
ot the French Bents was 6110,000 f.; that in Aped and May, 1824
two Boards of Commissioners were formed, in pursuance of the
Convention of 1822—the one of examination, and the other of ap-
peal.
Mr. SVGDEX wished to be furnishtql with a copy of the treaties.
The SOLICITOR.GENEEAL submt.tted that he was rot bound
to produ:e the treaties; Mr. Seereta►y Canning. he supposed, was
not hound to attend here with the treaties to mut the convenience
or plecture of Mr. Sugden.
Mr. StronEw thought tbst, at least he ought to be furnished
whit printed copies. . . . . . .

Snannixt. observed. that there were translations of these
teesties, which it was sworn were correct translations. lie then
proceeded further to read the affidavits. It appeared that after Mr.
Machado arrived in this country, he received a despatch from the
tineretary of State or the Spanish Government, thanking hint for
his laudable exertions in haring protected the property, and offer-
nag to reward him In any way he thought proper. In reply to this
despatch. Mr. Machado had written a lean, representing the diffi-
culties which he had encountered it reseuing the property, not only
Id France but in this country, snit stating that a merchant of the
named' Simon Cock had attached the property, but had after-
s/ante been isduced to abandon his claim. Another despatch was
awbssquently received from the Spanish 31inister, desiring that the
artertien slight be placed in the bands of the Belk of England.
Elr. Machado, in reply, expressed his readiness to comply, and
anxiety to be exonerated from all responsibility. It WAS fur.
thee alleged in these affidavits. that an account bad been inclined,
lee the last letter written by Mr. Machado, of the receipts and dia.
hossiments, which had not been quite satisfactory to the Spanish
Osesermaset. -Upon this matter, hoverer, no question now arose.
Posse dogs had been instituted against Mr. Alachado, and the ob-
yeta now was, to sate the money from being thus applied to pur.
lines foreign from the original object declared by the treaties.
The Loan Cftorcxxxisa asked what was the nature of the
clam of she plaintif in the action crinmenced in the Common
Pleas What equity was there to restrain Mr. Menilizabal from
Westing en action against the agent of the Spanish Government?
If lie b sal a claim against him, )Ir. Machado might pay him out
of what fonds he pleased.
Ih. theanwext. mid that Mr. Blendleabal was a claimant under
the Epanish Government.
. Tim Loan Csawczi.coa said that was the fact be 'diked put.
tiealprly to kaow.
'4.. Suarorx asked whether Mr. Machado had been served in
Uhl 'sit with notice?

- Mr. Stiaown.t. believed that gentJecran eras taw out of the
WM ary,.
. . . . .

He AT LEY was then heard very shortly on the same side,
slid remarked that the proceedings in the Court of Common Pleas
W never been communicated by Mr. Marital°. The informatido
had been obtained through an indtrett channel.
' The LORD Citketluton observed, that the first point to he
seeerraired was, whether it appeared from the affidavits that Mr.
fil.mdtaahal sued as a claimant upon these particular funds, or did
h• k•ww that these monies, nbw lodged in Court, ware part of the
of the ripanish Government. lo either of thaw cases lie
thought ha could interfere.
Re. WHEATLEY then road that pert of the affidavit which re-
ferred to this pint, sad ceateaded that it showed Mc substance that

Mr. 3fendizabal knew that this was a putt of the large sum belong-
ing to the SpanJvh finvernment.
The Loan l'itAxcer. ion repeated his oh.tervation with respect
to the power n the Courie interterenee, in the event of its heirg
proved that Mr. Mendtzabal was acquainted with the fart Unless
this were atatisl, dins Court hid no right whatever to restrain Mr.
Mendizahal from proceeding with she aetioo. Unless collusion
were distinctly shown between these parties. for the purpose of
getting at this particular fund, he could not interpose the authority
of the Court.

-„-
SUODTW thought, that under these eirentnitinecs it was
wholly unnecessary for him to trouble the Court with atty observa-
tions against this motion. No colluaioo whatever had been at-
tempted to be proved.
The Loan CHANc M. 1.011 desired the passage in the affidavit
should be again read. if Mr. Mendizabal had a claim on the
fund, there was no tribunal in this country which could try it it
could only be investigated under the Commission Which bad been
appointed to investig .t..? the claims. It, on the otherhand. the
claim against Mr. Machado was a private one, then it must he
shown that the claimant knew that the money out of which it was
to be satisfied belonged to the Smusieh Uovernment.
Mr.IVIIEATT.Er adtnittetl that it certainly did nut appear upon
the face of the afildavits. that Mr. 3lentlizabal sued as a claimant
upon the particular fund.
Mr. suonew then apprehended the case was at an end.
The I,OIIH CHAIM E LI.O a observed that the affidavits were cer-
tainly insufficient, but that was no reason why they should not he
amended.. There was undoubtedly a very good case. it it could
he shown that lilendisabal sued us a claimant upon these Funds.
Mr. huonax hoped the motion would be dismissed with costa.
The Loan CHANCEI.t.oa would take care that Mr. titigden's
clients 14,4 milling in the way of costs ; but he would not now
dispose of the motion. Me would allow more sufficient affidavits
to be filed.

Mr. &tone' supposed that this was another mode of raising •
loan for the King of Spain, as all other means had failed.
Mr. Amoanzon. Counsel also for the defendant, in order to
show that three was no collusion between the parties, stated that
his bag was now ailed with briefs in adgerse suits in which they
were engaged.
The motion was ultimately directed to stand over until more suf-
ficient aliitlarits had been produced.

IN TIE Alit P. TIMMER.
