LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY., Arcuier 14.
JI:DGMENT IN THY. QUECNSIN:RY LEGACIEN.
On Tuesday last an —application vMs Made by Sir Arthur
Piggott, in behalf of the pecuniary legatees and annuitiutts
under the will of the late Duke of Quttpusbury, for their being
paid nut of the funds deposited in Court one-fourth part of
the amount of their claims. It had been stated by the Learn-
ed Counsel, that, independently of the claims advanced by the
Buccleugh and the March tenants, who moreover acceded to
the present application, there would remain in Court a fund
of inure tlran a million sterling, while thentmost extent of the
pecuniary legoeies and annuities eras 773,01 11., for only a
fourth part of which suns the application Was then made.
The Lord Chancellor, this mornin; on coming into Court,
addressing himself to Mr. Hart, said, that he had examined
all the papers, and it appeared to him, that the arrears and
interest created a fund sufficient for granting with safety what
was required in the application with the consent of the claim.
Mg tenants of the Duke of Buecleligh and of Lord Weinys.
Sir A. Piggott and sir S. Romilly observed, that the funds
in Court, at the present rate of exchange namely 80, would
produce one million two hundred and fifty eight thousand
pounds and upwards; and looking to a reduction so low as
so, or even 50, would leave a solid land of more than a mil-
lion sterling.
The Lor7l Chancellor said—" Take one fourth of the sum
doe to the appellants."
Mr. Hart observed, that there was besides an aecninulation
of interest for five years tine up to June last, r hich made the
whole amonnt to 742,5001. aed he trusted that the Accomp•
tant-General would be directed to sell to that amount.
The Lord Chancellor tt Take the 212,5001. and let the re-
sidue remain in Court, not to be disturbed without notice."
Mr. Hart, for The residuary legatees, bad no desire to op-
pose the application, but he trusted their costs would be taken
Care of.

The Lord Chancellor said, that was implied in the order,
and that the magnitude of the fund rendered. the order safe.

OPERA ROVSE.-WATERS P. TAYLOR.
The Lord Chancellor—" I read every document in Phis
case with the greatest attention, and have cw.ipared them
with the affidavit I received on Monday. lam not aware
that aft the parties ha% r seen this affidavit."
Mr. Hart—" They nave been serveil w ith copies of it, my
Lord."

The Lord Chancellor—" Then they cannot pretend igno-
rance. The case is more intricate than lat first supposed,
as the two motions I have to deride are so very different.
I have every respect for the parties, hot I most treat them
as if they had not any interest in the theatre, and as eommou
parties. It has been unfortunate tier the parties that they
were inclined to so much litigation ; it would have been mach
better for them to have taken my advice in the first instance,
and have settled the business between themselves. I will how-
ever detideii according to equity."' am afraid it is them:Mout
of Court I shall act contrary in this case, than I have been iu
the habit of doing with others., If there is such an idea, it
is a most mistaken one ; for I shall act as if it was a private
house in Chancery-lane. Although they have hitherto refused
to take my advice, I will once more give them an opportu-
nity of taking advantage of it, for which reason I will not
give my judgment until to-morrow. I trust they will take
advantage of my intentions towards them, and that instead of
Os Mg my judgment to-morrow, I shall be informed the
parties have shook hands, and that it will be unnecessary.
If that is not the case, I shall enter into the merits of the
ease, and make those continents I shall think proper."
Judgment postponed.
