COURT' OF KING'i BENCH.
TUESDAY, DAY IG.
MORGAN (ASSIGNEE OF JONES) e. PRIOR.
This was an action on apo icy of insurasince. In July, 1816,
the brig Nathan sailed front Liverpool for the coast of Africa,
for the purpose of bringing home a cargo of palm oil. On the
sth of Nov. following, her cargo, of which our-fourth belonged
to the bankrupt Jones, was insured for 4,5001. In May or
Jutie, 1817, Jones received a letter from the Captain. dated
Nov. 1516, stating that the vessel was then at Bonus, that be
expected to complete the voyage in ten months, and would
write by every opportunity. This, however, was the only
letter he received from hint. On the 6th of Sept. 1517, Jones
wrote to his brokers in Lond•tn to effect an additional insur-
ance of 1,001. upon the cargo ; in consequence of with. h, the
prescut policy was executed on the Sth. Oti the lout Jones
wrot: another letter to his brokers, stating that his reason for
making the additional insurance was the nueasiaess of Mfrs.
Roberts, the captain's wile, at the vessel being so long, past
due. It turned out that the vessel was wrecked oft Piince's
Island, and the captain and two mates being dead, the Portu-
gueze Governor took possession of the cargo, and sold it for
the benefit of the patties. The amount of the first insurance
was paid ; and the present action was brought to recover 251.8.
the bankrupts share of the last policy, which was resisted on
the ground that when effecting the insurance, lie bad not coo•
ninnicated to the underwi iter the receipt and contents of the
cc stain's letter, by which he would have been enabled to form
a tame accurate judgment oldie risk he was encountering.
The Lord ChielJustire having recapitotited the evidence,
The Jury found s verdict for the plaintill--Damages 2501.

question, wlietlwr Mr. %V ilkinson was or wts not a trader
within the meaning of the bankrupt laws ; to establish the affir-
mative of which,
Mr. Scarlett, the leading counsel for the plaintiffs, stated
that he was prepared to offer some additional e% blence to that
which had been adduced in the other case on Saturday last ;
but being afterwards unable to produce the evidence lie e%-
peeled, lie said lie would submit to a nonsuit ; and the plaintiffs
were accordingly called.

against the editor and publisher of a journal culled Ths
auntie of Fashion, for a gross and scandalous libel on an
Individual, described not by lime, but its a 'rosi) living on

of infamous character. His father was said to be a hackney
coachman, his her a washerwoman, tind himself a pick-
pocket. To prevent his elevation in lite lie had been placed
in a cellar in the city. The serious part of the libel charged
him with the forgery of a will, by which lie became possessed

bettor to the Constitutional Association) to chew cause
mil lie should nut pay over certain monies to Mr. Dick-
enson, alter deducting his own chat ges, deliver.up docu-
ments in Ins possession, and answer the matter imputed
to him by the applicants. He obtained this rule on affi-
davits alleging that Mr. Murray had been employed on
behalf of the owners of au Ante' lean vessel, called the
Igcsonia, many years ago, to prosecute an appeal from
a sentence of capture against that vessel at Harbadoes,
in the High Count of ithuiralty in England; that he had

several thousand pounds had beeu paid to him out of that
Court, fur which lie had never accounted; and that lie
had evaded interviews, by neglecting, to answer letters,

BOXING.

Tuesday last, was a real display of jollity and dis-
pointment. It was a day, too, when one cf the
best men in England had to fight for a stake of 100
sovereigns, and that tried and approved man was
Dick Curtis, a lad about gst. 21b. His opponent
was Peter Warren, a supposed clever fellow, who
fancied fighting better than working, and full a stone
heavier than his adversary. It was found out &gain.
that glove-work is theoretical rather than operative
upon the nicer feelings.
Coluhrook, Bucks, was the spot fixed upon, am/
the toll-collecter had a good market. The fight
took place within two miles southward of the town,
fur the benefit of the white bag =en, who gave the
farmer thick fora ten acre field. The seconds and
bottle-holders were, Belcher and Shelton for Curtis; ,
and Tom Owen and Josh. Hudson fur Warren.

CORN 17.tt7NGE, FRIDAY. Nov. 19.
There was some business done in the market this morning,
although we cannot quote any alteration in prier. The supply
since Wednesday is confined to the arrival of a few land samples,
but u it is known that considerable quantities of grain are on
the way up. the price is kept from advancing. The fine samples
of Wheat were readily taken at Wednesday's quotations, and
Barley also erected sales at the prices of that day. Oats were in
good request, and very steadily maintained their advance of last
market day. Nothing material has been done in Beans and
Peas, which are without alteration. Several Dundee ships, with
grain. remain at Harwich, confined to that port in consequence
of adverse winds, but this supply is expected up by the Data
market day.

CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, Nov. 45.
Our market was but moderately supplied with all kinds of
Grain this morning, and very little business was done in Wheat,
which has not varied from our last quotations. In Dailey there
is likewise no alteration, but twine business has been done this
morning in Oats, which, in consequence of the smallness of the
supply, has advanced about is. per (planer. In Ruins and Peas
very little has been done, and both are without say variation in
price. Upon the whole, the market wu heavy in all Grain,
except Oats, purchasers holding back, in expectation of large
arrivals when the adverse weather, which now prevents their
conning up, shall have changed.

Y.CE‘RTL CROOKS, IN RC HILL, AN ATTORNEY.

Mr. Sergeant Pell said he bud a motion to submit to the
Court in behalf of Brooks, (one of the parties to the case
which had been just before under their Lordships considera-
tion). It was for a rule to slew cause why Mr. Hill, who aria
an attorney of that Court, should not be ordered to pay to
Brooks, or to the officer of the Court, to be by him paid, the
sum of 1401. money of Brooks's, which had got into his (Hll's)
possession under the following circumstances:—ln the Old
Bailey Sessions before the last, Brooks stood indicted fur a
felony in having forged the name of a Mr. Clarke to • check,
some time before his trial, Clarke called upon him in Cold-
bath-fields prison, and in the course of conversatio• said that
he had no wish to appear against him on the trial, bit that 1116
attorney (Hill) would proceed with the indictment, unless he
(Cla.ke) would pay him his costs, which he was unable to do.
It was then proposed that Brooks should advance the money to
cover the costs,and that the trial should not be proceeded with.
Mr. Hanson, Brooks's attorney. was present at a part of this
transaction, and he strongly advised him not to consent to any
such compromise; that it was highly improper, and that he
(Hanson) would have nothing whatever to do with it; and at
sating this, Mr. Ilanson went away, and would hear no more
on the subject. Brooks, however, gave 1501-501. of which
1 (mind its way int.) Hill's hand► before the trial, and 901. af-
terwarda. Brooks in bin altidevit now stated, that he gave the
money under an impression that his life was in danger from his
knowledge of the parties opposed to him, though he positively
swore rthat he was innocent of the crime of which lie then stood
accused, Lad of wh eh he was since acquitted—be therefore
moved that Hill be compelled to return the 1401. which be had
unjustly received.
Lord Chief Justice Dallas said, it is almost unnecessary to
say, that to attempt to compound a felony is a misrieineanmr,
and a very high one ; and subjects the party so acting to a
heavy punishment. The party here has confessed that he has
done that, and now seeks to recover the money by means of
which he attempted to commit the otl'enee: This is the find
time I ever heard of such an application made in Court ; and if
the Court were to interfere in the manner required, they would
be sanctioning a very high crime. 1 see no claim whatsoever
which Ibis party has to our interference ; and therefore 1 am of
opinion that this rule must be refused.
Mr. Justice Park and Mr. Justice Burrough expressed their
concurrence in the opinion of his Lordship.—Rule refused.
The affidavit of Brooks was ordered to he filed.

Thesing notice appeared yesterday in this Court:—

THE CONGRESS.
VtaotiA, Nov. 13.—The Ministers of Austria.
Russia, France, and Prussia, in concert with the
Duke of Wellington, continue their conferences.
There is reason to believe that the present situation
of the East, awl the affairs of Spain, have hitherto
been the only two objects on which the discussions
of the Plenipotentiaries have turned.
The Archduke Ferdinand d'Este, military gover-
nor of Hungary, has obtained permission from the
Supreme Council of War at Vienna to quit Baden,
where he had his head-quarters, to attend the Con-
gress. He is expected to arrive here shortly.
It is positively asserted that the Emperor Alex-
ander will leave us on the 10th of December next,
his Majesty having determined to return to the
capital of his Empire in time for the Christmas fes-
tival. It is said that one of the Emperor's Adjutant
Generals, who set out two days ago with despatches
liar St. Pctersburgh, is directed to communicate his
Majesty's determination to the Ministry and the Se-
nate.

It is generally believed, that independently of the
definitive resolutions, which will emanate from the
Congress, the Russian cabinet has already adopted a
definitive determination with regard to Turkey.—
Thus, it has been remarked, that the communica-
tions between this city and St. Petersburgh are very
active. The Russians who are here concern them-
selves but little about the different subjects{ which
are submitted to the Congress; the affairs of the
East alone fix their attention.

The Ministerial arrangements are not yet ma-
tured, but it is said, :bat the Lord Chancellor bus
waves his objections to the introduction of Mr.
Canning, prutided that gentleman will renounce
the Ca hulk: Itestion—those who know him best,
will doubt the least of the event, for we believe, if
lie had sworn by ever) Saint in the Calendar to
observe any one point most pertinaciously, his
PATRIOTISM would prompt him to incur the charge
of perjury, rather tluin neglect the call of Ida Country

graced by another buoy to Lisbon !

Foelamation also calls upon the Brazilian &adieu to

Commodore Ch..ytor, of the Buenos Ayres brig
Indepaideowia, arrived ut Churl. stun, confirms the
accounts heretofore received of the entire indepen.
deuce of Mexico and its provinces. The citadel of
Vera Cruz still held out, but was expected to be

Extract of a letter from Montreal :—" The legis.
laturc of Upper Canada has voted 2,0001. to defray
the expellees of the Attorney-General on his visit to
London, in order to lay their complaints against our
I louse of Assembly respecting their share 44f the pro-
vincial duties; and it is now conGdently reported
that Ministers have, of late years, been so much
troubled with complaints and demands from the le-
gislatures of the Canadas, that they have at last
determined to bring a Bill into Parliament to re.
unite the two provinces."

The Paris papers of IVednesday last have arrived,
bringing the preliminary decision of the Tribunal
of First Instance, in the suit between M. Lalitte
and Messrs. Bertrand and Montholon. It will be
seen from the report of the judgment, and of the
reasoning on which it was founded, that the main
question has not been grappled with—as to Buona-
parte's capacity of acquiring, retaining, or devising
properry, while engaged in open rebellion, and after
he had been adjudged guilty of high treason against
the Sovereign of France. The only point set at rest
by the present adjudication, is the insufficiency of
the documents brought forward by the plaintiffs to
prove their right to the litigated fund, either as at-
tornies or executors of Buonaparte.

M. Lafitte is authorized by the Court to place
the money in the coffer of deposits, as he had asked
leave to do, and Messrs. Bertrand and Montholon,
being declared not entitled to receive it, are ordered
to pay costs.
It appears that no serious disposition to further
tumult has shown itself in connexion with the sub-
ject of the missionaries since our last accounts. Four
or five Jens Warms were able to disperse in a mo-
ment the only assemblage that was formed on Tues-
day in the Place des Victories.
Gen. Berthon, as is stated in a letter from Par-
thenay, had a narrow escape on the 6th inst. lie
had left a farm-house before day-light that morning,
and at nine a.m. an officer arrived in pursuit of him.
The General is described to have been disguised,
unattended, and alarmed for his personal safety.—
None of the Chiefs of this insurrection have yet
been apprehended by the Government.
On the 14th instant the report was to be made
in the Chamber of Deputies on the petition of Mrs.
