M r.Scanett ruse to skew cause auainst a rule obtained
in this cause by the plaintill, Mr. Carrington, who was
Rector of a parish in Gloucestershire. It was a rule to
chew cause why a criminal information should not be
issued asAnst the defendants, who were parishioners ut
the hector, in consequence of the misunderstanding
anion tithes. . .

Mr. Scarlett then proceeded to shcw caust against the
rule. lie said, that the Rector at first had entered into
compromise for sixpence an acre for his tithes; he then
departed limn his bargain. and affixed tennence per acre ;
and subsequently went won Lllll, 11161i1111g 111/011 pay-
Illellt 111 k Me. The parisitionets thereupon called a
vestry, and determinial to pay hint iu kine, according
to an ancient and binding illstrtllllClll,dated 1672, which
however the K ctor etukavoured to evade by declaring
it a futgery, all tiottAii he it,!ittitted its vabduy previous to
the two cuinpu•lttun> which lie had subsetpwittly de-
parted from. Ile now stood out fur one !milling per

of the palish to Abslu their own.
Mr. Taunton said, that the combination of which
the Hector complained of was this:-That the parish-
ioners confederated tinder a penalty of 501. for each who
should compound with the Hector; that they should
pay the tutees in Line, and beore the 3(1 of May bllllllld
lay out for him each tenth bald calf, either of three or
five months of age, a time when they must die fur the
want of the mother's milk. This combination, as well
mode of tutting, were, he contended, aline illegal, lie
&minted that Mr. Carrington, when he first tt ent lout
the reetory,4o years ago, signed the instrument of 167 e,
but he now that et 0141 time he was 1g1114301 01'

The Court were of opinion that there was not sitfli-
cient et Menee to shew a combination in the case. .1.111:

SUICIDE or ADMIRat. sir G. Cmgrocu,.—Ports-
mouth, January 23.—This morning. at about ten
minutes before seven, Admiral Sir G. Campbell,
G. C. B. Commander-in-Chief ut this port, wa
found dead in his dressing-room by his valet, who
had left him only a few minutes previous. He was
lying on the floor, with a piatol by his side. This
melancholy event has as►onished the whole town,
and caused tee deepest conoern, Sir G. being of a
humane and charitable disposition, and of exemplary
domestic habits. He had the honour of being highly
esteemed by the King. On his going on beard the
yacht to pay his respects to his Majesty on his
arrival here, the King observed that he did not
intend to go out of the yacht during his stay, anti
turned to Sir George and added, in a flimiliar tone,
which he always used with this gallant Admiral,
" 1 shall not even go on shore to see you, Gorge."
Tho poor will feel a great has. Sir George was
charitable in the extreme, and highly esteemed by
all the Navy. We are entirely at a loss to ac-
count for this fatal catastrophe. Sir George was
50 years of ago; he entered early in life : he was
made a Post Captuin in the year 1791, Rear Ad-
miral in 1804, Vice-Admiral in 1806, and Admiral
of the White in 1814. He was appointed Port-
Admiral at this station in 1817; his term would
have expired in April next. A coroner's inquest
has been held, and it has returned a verdict of--
