LONDON.
FRIDAY. AUGUST 11. 18-20.

Yesterday. at two o'clock. a Cabinet Council

was held at the Foreign-office, which sat till near
five. After the breaking up of the Council,
Mr. BASSZTT, the King's Messenger. was sent off
with dispatches abroad, supposed to be to Munich.

The present state of the Continent was probably
the subject of deliberation. Austria. according to
report, has solicited pecuniary aid to enable her to
meet the danger whch she apprehends from the
recent proceedings in Naples.

The internal state of Spans is undoubtedly smelt
as must still excite very anxious fears for the tran-
quillity of the country and the ultimate establish-
ment of the Constitution. We do not indeed
hesitate to think that the Constitution will never
be settled firmly in Spain without very consider-
able mod:fications, for in its present form it leaves
to Spain but the name of • monarchy. But the
dangers most to be apprehended are those which
will arise from the proceedings of the Cones gene-
rally, or from the ill-advised propositions of some
of the Members. Already propocils have bre')
made in the assembly, which, under any circum-
stances, must excite agitation and alarm, but
which in the present unsettled state of the public
mind cannot fail of being attended with much evil.
Such, for instance, are the propositions recommend-
ed by the Committee of Commerce and Agricul-
lure of rendering all the property of the church
national, of granting pensions out of their own
estates to all ecclesiastics for life of such amount
as to the Cortes may seem fit, and of converting
the remaining property of the church, including
the tithes, to the service of the Government. We
shall not here enter into any abstract considerations
of the wisdom or policy of maintaining a national
church establishment in ease, dignity, and splen-
dour; but we certainly look upon it as a very rash
and inexpedient proceeding at this moment of dif-
ficulty and alarm, to alienate still further from the
constitutional system of government a body of men
in the state so numerous, active, and powerful, as
the clergy are in Spain, and to whom the great
mess of the people uniformly pay the most abject
and submissive obedience. There is an 'widest
intention among several Members of the Cortes Is
weaken the ecclesiastical power in Spain. With

the fair inference from the phrases used was, that

WAS slut the Pane Its that charged, even though the
real injury should he the greatest 1.. as comparisons

The CHIEF JUSTICE said, that it lay with the
Jury to determine Oil which of the two meanings
mull with mat fdirsires be deduced. If the al-
leged one, then the Pluirotti was entitled to the
verdict; if the contraty, the Defendant most be
altogether acquitted, although the libel charging
forgery had been proved, because the declaration
would be unfit to convict on that count.

The Ju►y retired, a. did also the Chief Justice.
with the eonseut of the Counsel, when they had
been absent an hour and better. At two hours
after they had retired an open communication was
sent from the jury-rootn, to say, that they could
not agree on their verdict.

London, England, 1820-04-15

This was an action to recover a sum of above
7001. for stamps, conveyances, solicitor's fees, and
other outgoings attending the negociating
making of 3 contract for the grant of an annuity, in
the year 1814. The Plaintiff was the grantee of
all annuity secured on an estate in Lincoln Fens ;
the Defendant an attorney employed by him in the
course of the transaction. The latter caused •
Mr. Wiggins, an ei—otitseist surveyor, to go into the
country and examinethe estate on which the an-
twit), was proposed to he secured, and on the
strength of that Gentleman's report, the contract •
was concluded. Large arrears of principal and in-
terest accrued in the payment of the sum yearly
granted, and the security turned out 110 l to be so
valuable as had beets represented. An action for
10,000/. the grantee's entire losses, had been its cots-
sequence brought against Nlr.Wiggins, end damages
obtained for 6,000/. The present 61114/13 WW4
in-
stituted to recover one of the it. ins of the remaining
losses. The only tinestion in the case was, whether
the Defendant was to be considered in the trimmer.
1100 under the character of a .I.:ialtor merely, or of
a general agent ? In the latter case he would be
liable—in the forgoer, not.
After some witnesses lritl been examined, the
Court pronounced, that seen her in law nor 111 fact
was Mr. Yatmaii liable; and that if he weir tis be
considered so, no attorney could with safety engage
in butanes, of that &script'
The Plaintiff was accordingly sionsuited.
The other cases that occurred were pine devoid

fiIIIMLESEk SESSIONS, APRILI4.

If Pliant I.iinllord of the Royal Oak
pishlicshooss., 111 Eurl-st. ret, SeVtll Dials, was in-
dicted fur an assault on Christopher Fairbrother, on
the 170. of July last.
Mr. A s uis.Ws, Counsel fur the prosecution,
stated that the repent was one of the most aggra-
vated eases of assault, and attended with the most
strarimn ciremmitauers, that ever was brought he-
fore a Court of Justice. He then detailed at
length the nature of the case, as it was afterwards
given in evidence.
The first witness called was Christopher Fairbro.
titer, who stated, that on the day stated in the in-
dictment, he and Ina wife returning from market
at • late hour at night, went into the Defendant's
house to take some refreshment ; in • short time
after, witness's wife left him and went home with
the articles she bought at the market. She return.
ed to the pahlic-house, and inquired for witness ;
the Defendant denied witness, and on her saying
that she knew witness was in the house, and that
she had a right to see him, the Defendant, as wit-
ness understood, abused her. She had a child in
her arms, wants' heard the cries of his child, he
went into the street where she was, and saw the
Defendant in she act of abusing her; he asked the
Defendant what he was about, when without fur-
ther provocation the Defendant aimed' • violent
Wow at him which knocked loins down; he lay
quite insensible ou the pavement, and was for
a considerable tune in a very ill state front
the effects of the violence he had received.—
The Defendant, after he was indicted, brought •
charge of rubbery against witness's wife and the
officer ; they were bath tried and acquitted. The
Defendant afterward. left his lions', and kept out
of the way until very lately, when he was taken
under a htigistrate's warrant, and brought here to
trial, for the assault on witness.

BLACK B. ANCIAM.

This was an action for compensation for labour
and service. The Pleiotiff, an accountant, had
been employed by the Defendant, executor to his
father, to arrange the accounts of the estate. For
this the Plaintiff sought to recover 2131. 6*. l id.
bring the balance of a sum charged for service
performed, at the rate of two guineas per diem, of
six hours, for the. Daendont's labour, and one
guinea per diem, of six hours, for his clerk. The
objections were, first, that the business had beau
unsatisfactorily executed; and, secondly. the ex-
travagance of the charge. The Defendant's clerk
proved the labour done : and on his cross-examina-
tion he stated, that he received a salary of M. per
week, frequently labouring iu his occupation for 14
hours in the day.
The CHIEF JUSTICE was of opinion, that the
charge was enormous, being a profit of 2s. 6(1. an
hour, on the labour of the clerk alone. He left it
witl► the Jury to say what would be a fair compen-
sation.
The Jury retired, and hoiterieWeen absent about
half so hou► returned, and gave a verdict for tit
Plaintiff—Damages 1261. 141. 6d. with costs.

NISI PRIUS.

STAINER AND WIFE V. StIORLAND.
The l'lArritifrs were rookerpets at Ilchester ; and
the Defendant, a *urger'', at the same place. The
latter was a married man, but halt nu family—a
young lady (Miss Chain) resided with him and his
wife, over whom he pretended to hove been ap-
pointed a guardian or trustee. This yornig lady
received the addresses of Mr. Samuel Trent, a re-
spectable young man, and thought proper, from
prudential motive', to withdraw herself from the
Defendant's house—Mr. Shorland not having
conducted himself with due propriety towards
a young lady so delicately circumstanced.--
Conceiving that Mr. mid Mrs. Starner had pro-
moted Miss Chant's escape, Shorlaud determined
to revenge himself upon them by scattering oniony •
moos slanders, and by the libellous publications
which had produced the present senors. With this
view, letters and papers were circulated about the
town of Detroiter, couched in the most vulgar,
gross. and indecent language. The Learned Coun-
sel then proceeded to read the libels. They were
in printing characters, evidently to avoid detec-
tion ; bat that they came from the hand of the De-
fendant was beyond all doubt. They imputed to
Mrs. Stainer and her sister that degree of profligacy
which could only apply to women the moat aban-
doned of their sex. It might readily be conceived
what a sensation such a wanton and atrocious attack
upon persons so well respected was likely to create.
Their friends and neighbours rallied round them to
protect them from so malevolent an outrage, and a
large reward was offered for the discovery isf the COURSE OF EXCIIAN'

debted to Mr. Finkhall to the amount of 1,1001.

pay the value of the dividends until the stock
should be replaced.
The agreement was proved by the subscribing
witness, and was executed in the year 1813.
A letter from the Plaintiff, dated June 11, 1818,
requiring the Defendant to replace the stock, ac-
cording to ►he conditions of the agreement, was
put it.
The price of stock on this day was proved by
another witness to be 68,11. The value (tribe stock,
therefore, was computed to he 8551. Si.

The defence, which appeared to have been unex.
pected, wa•, that repayment had been made to the
value of 9001. of the stock, of which proof was
offered.

The CHIEF JUSTICE thought, that this matter
could be more satisfactorily settled out of Cou►t.
The parties assented, and a verdict was taken for
the Plaintiff, subject to reference and deduction,
the costs of the cause to abide the legal event of
such reference.

►IhDSOR. Aran• es%

His VI ijesty has db. day taken possession of the
sacient Palace of the Kings of England. Ile ar-
tved st Winds°, Castle in his travelling carriage,
accorupwied by Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, and es-
corted by a party of lancers, about half-past three.
A guard of honour of the grenadier guards was
drawn up in front of the Lodge; but upon
intima-
tnn, that his Majesty would proceed direct to the
Palace, the guard hastily moved, and had scarcely
Cute to form on the lawn before the King arrived.
ilia Majesty was received at the grand entrance by
Sir Herbert Taylor and Colonel Stephenson. We are
happy to state that he looked in excellent health.
The guard saluted, and the band played "God sere
the King." At the same time the royal standard
sac hoisted upon the Round Tower; proclaiming to
t eiarroundingcountry that the Sovereign was again
resident within that castle, which has been the
scene of regal pride and splendour from the days
of the Edwards and Henries. We understand that
his Majesty proposes to remain at Windsor till
Tuesday. A handsome suite of apartments has
been prepared at the Lodge ; and a number of the
Royal Household arrived on Friday to make the
necessary arrangements for his Majesty's receetion.
The town of Windsor was in the evening generally
and brilliantly illuminated,
His Majesty left the_ Castle at a quarter past
seven to dine with the Princess Augusta at Frog-
more. The King slept at the Lodge.
In consequence of the official notification that
his Majesty's birth-day is to be celebrated on Mon-
day next, the 24th of April, it has been arrang-
ed to celebrate the same at Windsor with every de.
monstration of respect and attachment. In making
this arrangment the inhabitants embraced the very
first period at which they could with propriety ma-
nifest that joy which is felt by every loyal subject
ou his Majesty's accession to the throne; but
which the peculiar circumstances of our situation
before prevented us from testifying with any parti-
cular expressions of public rejoicing. There will
be a dinner at the Town-hall, which is expected to
be aunt fully attended.
