',AwI:ON, v. BoYne.
N 1 r. Campbell stated this case to the Jury. The
pldiutiff is an ingenious mechanic, a maker of gas ap-
paratus, the defendant was a West India Captain,
trading to Jamaica, and being desnoils of taking out a
gasometer as an article of commercial speculation, he
called on the plaintiff and ordered one to he made. The
work was illimediately put in hand, this was iii 1818, in
July, and the defendant went frequently to see the work
iu its progress. When finished, it was shipped by the
authority of the delend:int, under the orders of a Mr.
Nlasecr, and it went to Jamaica. Subsequent., appli-
cation was made fur payment, but without success, and
the present action was Lrought to recover the amount of
die plaintiff's demand 3.
The defendant resisted payment cm several grounds.—.
Amongst whets, that the order was not given to the
present plaintiff, but to his sun—that the order was not
executed till long alter the time agreed on, in Collire"
qUNICe of which the defendant sailed without it, and it
was sent alter him ; and further, that it was made ten
s larger titan the order specified, and was more fit
to light a street than a shop, tor which it was intended.
The consequence 01 which was, that it was thrown on
the plaintiff's hands, and lie hail left it unsold behind
him. [lie theatre had indeed made • an otter for it,
but he could not accept it, as they offered hint bills in
payment, and he diet nut choose to depend on their
credit.
The J ury, after hearing the witnesses on both sides,
found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages ► ail. Ids. !,:d.

FRIDAY, JAN. 12.
YEMItLES V. BRAIStCFL.
Mr. Scarlett stated this case to the Jury. The plain-
he said, had to complain of as grievous an injury as
any one commercial 111311 could sustain 1.1-0111 another.—
The plaintiff was a merchatti, formerly residing at Hour-
deaux, and the defendant a tut:telt:int in London. In
1814 the plaintiff sent a cargo of brandy :0 this country
on board a Russian ship called the Charles, with letters
to the defendant, who had nutlet taken to advise him as
to a proper port to which to send it fur sale, inentioiting
Lubec or Ilainburgh, but at the same time leaving it to
the better judgment of the defendatit to send it any
where else. Tile defendant undertook the charge, but
did not send the cargo to either of the ports metwoned,
but selected Dattizie, a port the most improper of any
to the Baltic, there being no sale for the article at
that port, although it was subjected to a very
high duty and to various other charges. It would ap-
appear that these objections were well known to the
defendant, who, however, scut them there to serve his
own purpose, as lie consigned the bills of lading to a
house at Dantz c, with instructions that the proceeds of
the cargo of the Charles should be renamed iti
The Daman: house being to send ,20,0001. worth of
wheat to this country, for the amount. The cargo ar-
rived at Dantzic, and the wheat was sent, but some dis-
pute arose respecting the acceptance on the part of the
defendant. Ihe plaintiff's brandy found no sale, but
the agents of the defendant, p.t
U
1 agen and Co., retained
them as security for the wheat sent to the defendant, and
in this state they were kept till 1816, when ,defendant
settlii,g his disputes whin Upliagen, respecting the ac-
ceptances, the brandies wen: given up, and sent back to
Lugland, what remained of them unsold; but such had
been the waste, by leakage and otherwise, the insurance
freight, re-shipment duties, and other ilyences, that, on
the account betitg stated, toe plaintiff found that the
cargo, winch had originally cost him 10,0001. had pro-
duced nit sale only 23671. Ud. 6d., whilst the charges on
it were 26421. I7s. The plaintiff flail, as he alleged,
sustained this loss through the intsconduct of the deten-
ilatil, and now sought to recover a compettsatioit by the
verdict of a Jury.
Mr. Scarlett called a number of witnesses to support
this case.
Mr. Marryatt, on the part of the defendant, addressed
the Jury at considerable length, and contended that his
client was not liable. By his instructions he was bound
to send the brandies to some port in the Baltic, 4101
Datitzie, for may thing winch appeared on the evidence,
Was as elyble as any- Baltic port which could have been
selected. If the Uphai;etts had illegally detaiiied the
cargo liar a dentaild 14:4111S1 a third person, and the plain-
tiff had been injured by that detention, the Upliagens
must iiiiSwee fin their own art, Ile also put in letters to
prove that the defendant bad represetiled to the plaintill
that the speculation of senility, brandies to the Baltic was
likely to prove unprofitable.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages
The case occtipi.il iii r Court ten hours, and did not
end till past nine: it‘lock at itigitr.

tempestuous weather in the Bay of Naples. We
cannot describe the ceremony better than in quoting
a passage from one of the private letters. " The
embarkation," says the writer, " was a truly beau-
tifid sight. His Majesty was carried from the shore
in the launch of the English Admiral, having the
Admiral on his right, and the Princess de Patent t
who accompanied him) on his left hand, At that
instant a royal salute was fired front the French and
English fleets at anchor in the bay, with colours
flying, And the yard of every vessel manned. The
royal standard of Naples was hoisted at the main of
the Vengtatr, the moment the King came on board.
The natural grandeur of the scene was increased
by one of the finest days of the season, the sun
shining brilliantly, and the sky without a cloud.—
The ceremony, however, had scarcely terminated,
when a very different spectacle was presented. The
wind changed, the sky grew cloudy, the weather
became turbulent, and by night had increased to a
storm. In the darkness and confusion, the Vengcar
and Revolutionaire ran foul of each other, and the
former received so much damage, that both vessels
put into Baia, where they remained till the 16th,
on which day the royal party sailed with favourable
winds fur Leghorn. The event of the storm ope..
rating on the minds of a people naturally addicted
to superstition, produced a thousand gloomy pre-
says respecting the royal journey."
CLEItICAL DELICACY: 0U Monday the 18th
ult. a loyal address to her Majesty, which had been
previously voted at a most numerous public meeting
of the parish of Itotherhithe, was presented by a
deputation headed by a banner, which banner was
subsequently deposited in the Committee Room at
the parish Workhouse. On the Wednesday follow-
ing, in discharge al a part of his duty, the Rector
attended at the Workhouse, to read prayers, and
perceiving the banner, sent the following Christian-
like letter, directed to the Churchwardens of St.
Mary, Rotherhithe :
" Rectory House, Rotherhithe, Dec. V.
" Gentlemen,—Having yesterday observed a flag belonging to
your cavalcade of Monday lust conspicuously raised in the large
loom of the Workhouse of this parish, I take leave to hay, that I
shall not again perform divine service in such Workhouse till
this banner is removed from so unsuitable a place.
" t have the honour to remain, Gentlemen' your very faithful
servant, " K.JONES, D.D."
To which the following very proper reply was

sent :
" tiir,—We have received your letter of the 21st, and feel sue-
pri.ed at the menacing and arrogant position you have taken.
" We are astonished at your presumption iu attetnpung to
dictate to us in what manner we ate to amiluet ourselves on
public measures. The banner to which you allude has been
placed by us in the Committee Itoom, where it will remain.
" We should feel unworthy ut' the situation we till, were we to
allow ourselves to be influenced by any party tuan, whatever his,
situation or pretensions may be.
" Before we conclude •we take leave to say,' that we are of
opinion your time would have been much more suitably em-
ployed in the cultivation niche Christian graces of meekness and
charity, and in the pouqual mid conscientious discharge of the
various duties appertaining to your clerical character, rather than
in making a voluntary and unprovoked attack upon a respectable
body of men, who have 'newly exercised a constitutional and
indisputable right, in common with a large majority of their
fdlow-parishioners."
Titus the business rests at present, and if the
Reverend Rector adhere to his determination, the
unfitrtunate inhabitants of the Workhouse will be
deprived of religious comfort and instruction, be-
cause this intolerant Priest is annoyed by the sight
of this symbol of the joy felt by his parishioners at
the detection and failure of an infamous conspiracy.
One of the churchwardens, and the ringers of
Charlton Maekrell, Somerset, having denied the
right of the Rector (the ltuv. Mr. Sharpe) to control
the ringing of the church bells, the latter has con-
sulted Dr. Lushington on the subject, and the
following is the substance of the Doctor's opinion
on the questions put to him by the Rector :-...
" That the consent of the minister (whether incumbent
or curate) is necessary to autlwrize the ringing of bells in
the church; and that the consent of either or both
elaireliWitrdelll, without the ' '. ter's consent, is not
sufficient. That the minister's consent to the ringing of
the bells most alasys be had : if the two churchwardens
differ, the consent of the minister and one chutchwarden
would be sufficient; but the t ousent of Ihe minister against
both churchwardens would not justify the tinging, nor
would the consent of both dim Omar& its against the
minister authorize it. That the minister has authority to
limit the time of ringing, and that the ringci A are bound to
ohey him. And that 110 person 1105 a right, without the
consent of the minister (whether incumbent or curate), to
place flags, garlands, or any thing else, either in or upon
the chinch, or in the church-yard."
It Was expected that the Dividends now paying
on the Three per Cents. would have been paid in the
new Bank notes, but they are not, to the great dis-
appointment of the public, nor is :nuy time specified
when they are to be issued. Ev;Ty day's delay is a
matter-of regret, as it is expected that they will, in
a great degree, diminish the number of thrgeries.
We received a private letter on Saturday morning
front Dublin, stating that persons connected with
he Government there are now printing in that city,
the speeches Jr the late prosecution against the
• Queen, with the iuteatiou of circulating them gratis
in Ireland.
