COURT OF KiNGraSINCH, Wasrsitenes, Noy. 11,
WQMWSLL e. caws.
Mr. GA ago* moved for a new trial it this ease,
which was tried the last sittings, at Guildhall, and
a verdi& obtained for the Defendant. The affinn
was brought for money had and received. The
Plaintiff, who resided in Manchester. consigned a
quantity of woollen cloaths to Messrs Wane and
Aggs, of London, who exported them, oil com-
mission, to Petersburgh, to the Defendant, Cree I.
Wane and Aggs afterwards became bankrupts. and
the question was, whether they adtPd as the fa&ors
of the Plaintiff, or whether the sale of the cl.ith
was made outright to them by him I Ao account or
sales was produced upon the tri tl. wherein charges
for warehousing. lawyers' fees, a,.d other extra-
moss charges. were made, which clearly sheaved it
an account between the faftor and his consigner ;
And it further Appeared. that the Plaintiff agreed to
allow them five per cent. commission.
On the part of the Defendant, Wane was pro-
duced as a witness. and swore, that it was an actual
sale, at eight months credit, and at the rate of nine-
teen shillings per yard.
Lord ELIA ens ovals said, that he left the credit
of Vt'ane's testimony to the. Jury ; but, as the weight
of evidence appeared to be entirely on the pan a
the Plaintiff, the Court chanted a rule to chew cause.

A report prevailed yesterday, tha' the Rochefort

from the following notice, which was sent from the

It was yesterday reported, that intelligence had
neon received in town, stating, that a prqiet of
Peace had been presented by 80. to the
Einireror of AVSTUA. This pe.jef is said to have
beer, forwarded to Vienna immediately after the ca-
pitulation of MACK'S Army, by the Austrian
eel I. lAN AU. The term► of the French proposition
is unsiersto- d to be. that Venice rhall be annexed to
the kingdom of Italy, and that Saltzburgh ahall be-
C:-1V stifled to the EleSoi of
l ie in contemplation to bring the great North
R. ad, through Warwick; which,we understand,may
be done at a very trifling espence, by making a new
to.i i for a few miles only. This arrangement would
lie a ri eAt accommodation to travellers, by shorten-
ii.g road between London and Holyhead le or
IS miles, and bringing there through a more fertile
and pleasant part of the country.
Orr Tuesday evening, the Anniversary Supper of
the historical Society, was held at Canterbury,
when Mr. CALL sWAY, senior, as the founder of the
Society, presided in ►he chair, with his usual
good humour. Nearly MU persons sat down to sup-
per, which was excellently served up. The respecta-
Win y of the company, and the several good songs
which were sung, accompanied with appropriate
toasts, tended to heighten the exhiliration of the
evening. Among the company present were, the
Marro., JOHN BAKU, Esq. M.P..l•sttssimmont,
Esq. JOSLPH Roy Ls, E.'q. Aldermen Falai),
Coops', &c. etc. who, with the greater part of the
company, enjoyed the conviviality till a late hour,
when they paned with harmony and good fellow-

b.., Justice Goose—N Being a professional mu,
he would be the more cautious haw be made such a
threat."
The Court refined the articles on those grounds.

A►aTa P. s*RttiOß/.
This adion was brought to try the question of
a right of way through a yard belonging the De-
fendant, and was tried at the last Assists for
Shrewsbury, before Mr. Justice L a, when a
verdiet was obtained for the Defendant.
Mr. W tote moved to set aside the verdift, on
the grounds of the weight of evidence being with
the Plsintitf. Several Witnesses ha 1 been produced.
on the trial below, by the Plaintiffs who was te-
nant to the Defendant, to thew ancient custom,
through this yard, to a large room in the Defend-
ant's house. This room was occupied at various
times by Mr. Ward's Company of Wire Dancers and
'fumblers; by the Company of Shearmen; and,
Occasionally, by a congregation of Methodists ; re-
' lacing to which last, it was said, on the trial, that
the Celebrated Methodist preacher, Mr. Wesley,
being unclad by a mob oat evening, petted
tL.a ibis passage. The room was alp, resorted
to by °elm Societies, and, in one instance, was used
as a Coon of Justice, duringthe Sessions, while the
Town Hell was repairing. At these several times,
the right of passage through the yard in question
was not disputed ; and, with respes to the Wire
Dancers and Tumblers, an old blind Barber was
called, to thew free egress and regress, who stated,
that, 64 years ago, he was in the habit of dressing
those Gentry, and always passed through this yard,
withilut any hindrance. On the part of the De-
fendant, however, it appeared, that there was a gate
to this yard, which was left open all day, merely
for the accommodation of the inhabitants of this
house, and it was always shut at night. It also ap-
peared, that the DelenJant had sbewn the Plaintiff
where to find the key of it, which he offered the use
of to the former, when he shout,' want it, but an
right of passage, it was contended, did exist.
Upea these latter grounds, therefore, the Court
consulered there was no ancient tight of passage,
and accordingly refused the applicatlen.

why the verdict in this casseohtainesi by ,he Defend-
ant, should not be set ASide. And a rl m uit ent•rrei.
The cause was trieJ before Alr. Justice fixarn,
at the last Assizes in Essex. It was an admit
brought by the Plaintiff to recover the penalty of
501. from the D.fenJant.who was a Sheriff's Officer,
for extorting mare than his legal fees, for an Arrest.
It was proved on the trial, that the Plaintiff had

been Arrested for debt, and was obliged 'n pay Mr.
Staid, the Officer, the suns of two gu neat for the ar•
rest, and also one guinea for a supper. It alas ap-
peared, that every indulgence was given to Mr
Martin, by the Defendant ; and, under the dir.•aion
of the 1.-irtsed Judge, the Jury found .t verdil fur
the Defendant.

Serje.intl32lT argued, that this verdiet was con-
trary to 14W, as it INA' expressly stated in a statue of
Henry the Sixth, that a Bailiff should receive no
more than four-pence for an arrest.
The Court did not wish to inierf•-e, as it was
always usual icr the Prothonotary to tax a guinea.
at least, for an arrest.

Serjeart Best then submitted, that he should be
allowed a new trial, to reeov r the difference be-
tween the money paid, and tie sum utu illy cited
by tie Ptottionotary ; but the Court thought it bet-
ter to let the matter rear. than put the parties to on
red an eapence for the morel y of such a trifling

S.n.je t .t LROIS, on the part of the Defers-4:r.
move! for a rule to show Cause, why the verdil
obtained by the Plaintiff should ant be set aside,
and a new trial granted. Th. cause hal been tried
h•fore a Special Jury. at Guildhall, in the sittinsrs
after last term. It was an ;seism on a warranty,
brought by the Plaintiffs, is Trustees for Mt.
William Blain, to recover the sum of 2,.50•./1 se-
cured by the Defen lain, for Mr. Thomas !Ilain
In 1704. l'hurnas Blain being in w ant of money. to
cultivate hts estates, in Amtrica, his tirt.ther, Win
Blain, agreed to lend !iSrn this sum, on the tempo
ratty warranty of any respdahle pets in. Mr
Thornton, the Defendant, then enter •.1 into tia•
warranty, and the business reted in that stke,
until the year 1799, when Thomas Blain becatne
bankrupt. A demand was then made on Mr. 'Own
ton by letter ; and he, in answer, said, he had al-
ways considered that lessineis settled, as it had
been agreed between the brothers, that the first pro-
fits of the land should be applied to the docharge .•I
this debt. No proceedings vier taken by the l'iaint-
iffs. on the receipt of this ;enter ; but, in the year
1805, snme time after the death of Mr. Lennox,
the princip d partner in the house, this thion was
commenced On the trial, Thomai Blain posit.vely
swore, that hr had Accounted for this money, and
that Mr. Lesinns, before h.s death, had often said,
that Mr. Iliornton was entirsly etonerated. N-:-
withstandiug this evidence, the Jury f un.l a verd'
for the Plaintiffs, allowing them priac;pal and inte-

res.
Serjeant Less then submitted, on the ground t•t
the verdict 'wing against evidence, and because th..
Plaiatiffs had allowed their densan ! to be dormant
en long a time. that tie pr. sent verdia should see set
aside, and a new trial granted.
Sir JAIt ea MA MST I LI o, who ttied the c wise, sai
he thought it *as rather hard on the Defendant to be
obliged to p ty thi, money ; but he did not think the
Court could, with propriety, grant a new trial, as
all Mr. 'l'ht•mas Blain's letters went dirsily to con-

The Fro-neer Court Hord/e, ot the 16th of October.
tntattis " .4 Tree Sta!thoenl of the Candna of the
Zierene Elector Paintnee," of which nor limits wili
only allow us to give the followarg abridgment :
The Serene F.letor Palatine has published an
historical statement, in which he owns himself an
ally of Frame, and declares war against Austria
and Rossi r, excusing, by false allegations, the breach
of promise he hat made to the Homan E:ronser co,
of ceding his troops to him.
" Not content with the indemnifications the Se-
rene F.l elm had received by the notch/me of the
Eannire of nth Arid', 1 WS, he suffered hirn,elf,
from ambithin, to be drawn into secret engagements
with Fratice. which proved, on every occasion, to
tend systematically to minivan Austria.
" As his ambitious hopes rested pi iecipally upon
the prosp, as of a fresh attack with which the
Court of Vienna was menaced by France on every
occasion, those gradual armaments which His
Majesty was compelled to make from the ptepara-
does made by ore Emperor Napoleca, became .an
o ijent of the Serene Elector's avention. His first
design was to raise a numerous army in Bavaria,
and to hold it in readiness for the French Emperor.
The quickness of the Austrian armament prevented
the execution of that intention, and the Inlet:tor chose
tallier to hasten to g:.) and join the French with 411
his troops, leaving Lis Bavarian and Stiahian enates
to their own I dte, than to disappoint the er:pectaden

peror Napoleon. His Serene Highness the Elector
had also prepared f.,r his departure, when Prince
nchwarrenberg strived at Munich. on the 6th of
enter:Ow.
" The danger that the Electra, Palatine won'd
join the French was indubitable ; consequently a
serious demand for the cession of troops became a
jist measure ot self-defence.
u The Eleetar agreed to the demand verbally,
and in writii:g. He wrote to the Prince, on the
7th of September, with his own hand: • I am re-
; confer with the Minister Montgolas, on the
conditions.' The Minister confirmed his Soveteign's
resolution, and proposed the coneniors ; that the
I...lestor's own regotient. and that of the Electoral
Prince, should remain at the disposal of his Serene
Hio'inte s ; at .1 that hfuntch ancNsmphenburgh-
should be exempted from the passage of Austrian ,
tsr'nps. the agreement was to be concluded at
Haag, on the following day.
" On the Pltli of Sept, ether, Count Nogarola was
sent off to the Eroperoi, with a letter from the
kin6n, feginning in the follow,ng words I
have this morning ordered toy Millioet to conclude
dpi agseerei.t u 1,11 Pi Llce Schinalccoherg, in por-
mance of %%bib, I unite my forces to those of
your Imyclial and Royal Majesty, to give you a
proof of my insiol,ible devotion.' No sontu} had

the night if the Sir, and withdrew all his trot:o by,
forced marches, having emptied all the public chests.
and taken with term even the deposited bonds. and
widows' and ot plans' estates ; whence it liecao e
necessary to po: a Stop to the further (hawing of
annuitia s, &t to prevent a 'OIA stagnation of the
whole Administration of the country.
te Wfiea Prince Schwaiaenberg and General
Mack arrived at Haag. the Elettor's intention of
Bring from bis ergagement was no longer secret.
After they had waited a long while, there appeared
a Palatirie Lieutenant-Colonel, shewing, by, his tone
and proposals, quite different from those of Munich,
that a pretence was sought for breaking off a nuga-
tory nerciation. It was refused to leave the Elec-
toral troops in Bavaria ; their cession was to be de-
feated till the war had actually commenced, and
they were always to remain together as a separate
body.
t• After what had happened. the Austrian Gene-
rals could not consent to leave an independent and
numerous corps in the rear and flank of the Austrian.
army, which was hastening forward.
" The Bavarian troops were not to be embodied
by men or companies with the Austrians, as has
been falsely asserted in the Palatinate part, but to
remain together, in whole regiments or brigades.
The entry of the Austrian and Russian troops in

who had only made the exception of the distrids of
Munich and Nymphenhorgh,

of the Austrian troops, they are become indispensible,

other Power c, otherwise cope with it. How-
ever, since the entry of the French, the vast differ-
ence between their mode of raising requisitions, and
the An unite, has been experienced.
" Nevertheless, to remove every pretence, His
Majesty declared by his Envoy, Count ltunl, that he
accepted the condition of leaving the Palatine troops
together in a separate corps. The objeftion stated
in the Serene I.:ldiot's letter of September dth,
namely, that the Eleteral Prince was in France
was already removed, by the wise precaution of the
Prince. Count Bust was even empowered to be
finally satisfied with the dismissal (instead of the
cession) of the troops, by the way of furlough, or
even of the Bavarian troops alone.
" All was refused. The French troops were re-
ceired by the i'lleTtor with open arms, and all the I
Palatine troops joined them. They take the field
nainst His Majesty, and against the Emperor of
Ras sja. sad war has been declared. • I
•• In a word, the Draw became false to his
word, which he had given as a Prince, and as a
man ; false to his people, and to his Emperor ; to
the proved friendship of the Emperor Alexander;
to the securi•y and welfare of Germany, and of Eu-
rope, which depend on the event of this war com-
pelled by France. This is the true statement of a
cotsdufl, which the loyal sobjeas of that Prince
kindly deprecate, at which the honourable and p*,-.
triode in, Ergs ef his brave troops revoh, *to • are'
now •dsring their blood, trot for the deliverance of
Germany, but. fur its enemies, and who are cormma
