LAwroN, v. Bolton.
Mr. Campbell stated this Cabe to the Jury. The
plaintiff is an ingenious nieelsaine, a maker of gas ap-
paratus, the defendant was a West India Captain,
trading to Jamaica, and being desirous of taking out a
gasometer as an article of commercial speculation, he
called on the plaintiff and ordered one to be made. The
work was • ediately pm in hand, this was in 1818, in
July. and the defendant went frequenily to see the wo.k
in fa progress. When finished, it was shipped by the
authority of the defendant, under the orders of a Mr.
Nlascer, and it went to Jamaica. Subsequent:appli-
cation was made for payment, but without success, and
the present action was brought to recover the amount of
the plaintiff 'a demands.
he defendant resisted payment on several grounds.—
Amongst whets, that the order was not given to the
present plaintiff, but to his 3011—that the order was not
executed till long alier the time agreed on, in conse-
quence of which the defendant sailed without it, and it
was sent after him ; and further, that it was made ten
times larger titan the order specified, and was more fit
to light a street than a shop, tor which it was intended.
The consequence of which was, that it was thrown on
the plaintiff's hands, and lie had left it unsold behind
him. 'l'he theatre had indeed made him an oiler for it,
but he could not accept it, as they offered hint bills its
payment, and he did nut choose to depend on their
credit.
The Jury, after hearing the witnesses on bosh sides.
found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 1161. 16s. 2d.
—Costs 40s.

IRIDAY, JAN. 12.
VENISLES V. BRASECIC.

Mr. Scarlett sta7edtl;;caSel;Cl;.Tury. The plain-
tiff, he said, had to complain of as grievous an injury as
any one co 11l etcial man could sustain from another.—
Tue plaintiff was a merchant, formerly residing at Boor-
deals, and the defendant a merchant in London. In
1814 the plaintiff sent a cargo of brandy to this country
on board a Russian ship called the Charles, with letters
to the defendant, who hail undertaken to advise hint as
to a proper port to which to scud it for sale, mentioning
Lubec or Haniburgli, but at the same leaving it to
the better judgment of the defendant to send it any
where else. 'lnc defendant undertook the charge, hut
did not send the cargo to either of the ports mentioned,
but selected Datuzic, a port the most improper of any
in 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 tae
delentlatit, who, however, sent them there to serve his
own purpose, as he :red the bills of lading to a
house at I),ltitzic, with instructions that the pitsceeds of
the cargo of the Charles should be returned in grab).—
The Ilsiitzic house being to send 20,0001. worth of
wheat to this country, fur 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. 'I he plaintiff's brandy found no sale, but
the agents of the defendant, Upliageti and Co., 'emitted
them as security for the wheat sent to the delendant, and
in this state they were kept till 1816, when tleteinlairt
settling his disputes %%tilt Upliagen, respecting the ac-
ceptances, the brandies were given up, and sent back to
England, what remained of them unsold ; but such had
been the waste, by leakage and otherwise, the insurance
freight, re-shipment duties, and oilier expetices, that, on
the account being stated, the plaintiff found that the
cargo, which had originally cost hint 10,0001. hail pro-
duced oti sale only 23671. lid. 61, whilst the charges on
it were 26421. 17s. Toe plaintiff hail, as lie alleged,
sustained tilts loss through the miscooduct of the deten-
datst, and now sought to recover a compensation by the
verdict of a Jury.
Mr. Scarlet' called a number of wituesses to support
this case.
Mr. Marryatt, on the part of the defendant, addressed
the Jury at Considerable lenoll, and contended that his
client was nut liable. By his instructions he was bound
to send die brandies to some port in the Baltic, and
Datitzic, for any tholee, which appeared on die evitience,
was as eligible as au), Baltic port which could have been
selected. It the Upliagens had illegally detained the
cargo lin a demaild against a tiiird person, and the plain-
tiff had been injured by that deteirtion, the Uplia6ens
must answer for their ow', act, lie also put in letters to
prove that the defendant had represenied to the plaintiff
that the speculation of sending brandies to the Baltic was
likely to prove unprofitable.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages
6001.
The case occupied the Court ten hours, and did not
end till past • o'clock at night..

Leammorost SPA—Captain Stevenson has re-
signed the situation of Master of the Ceremonies—
the annual value of which is now estimated at 8001.
and the increase of which is certain from the pro-
gressive though rapid increase of this popular
watering place. Several Candidates are already i❑
action, and we doubt nut but a spirited contest may
be looked fir.

Captain Lyon, R.N., who lately returned from
the mission into the interior of Africa, is appointed
to the Beaks, and to accompany Capt. Parry on the
next expedition for the northern discovery,

NAPLES,—We have received letters and paper,
direct from Naples to the 20th ult. The embark-
ation of the King took place on the 130, as before
related, but he was detained by adverse winds and
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-
tiful sight. His Majesty was carried lion' the shore
in the launch of the English Admiral, having tke
Admiral on his right, and the Princess de Patern.s
who accompanied him) on his left hand, At that
instant a royal salute was fired from 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 lower, 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, ha 3 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 Vengeur
and Revohdienaire 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 for Leghorn. The event of the storm ope-
rating on the minds of a people naturally addicted
to superstition, produced a thousand gloomy pre-
sages respecting the royal journey."
Crakicst. DELICACY.—On 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 Rotherhithe, 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 of 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. tl.
" Gentlemen,—Haring yesterday observed a flag belonging to
your cavalcade of Monday lag conspicuously raised in the large
room of the Workhouse of this parish, I take leave to say, that I
shall nut again perform divine service in such Workhouse till
this banner is removed from so unsuitable a place.
" I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, your very faithful
servant, " It. JONES, D. 1)."
To which the following very proper reply was
sent :

•• Sir,—We have received your letter of the 21st, and feel sur-
prised at the menacing and arrogant position you have taken.
•• We are astonished at your presumption in attempting to
dictate to us in what manner we are to conduct ourselves on
public measures. The banner to which you allude has been
placed by us in the Committee Room, where it will remain.
•• ‘Ve should feel unworthy of the situation we till, were we to
allow ourselves to be influenced by any party man, 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 of the Christian graces of meekness and
charity, and in the punctual and conscientious discharge of the
various duties appertaitung to your clerical diameter. rather titan
in matting a voluntary and unprwoked attack upon a respectable
body of men, who have merely exercised a consutudonal and
indisputable right. in common with a large niaiwity of their
fellow-parishioners."
Thus the business rests at present, and if the
Reverend Rector adhere to his determination, the

unfortunate inhabittuns 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 Alackrell, Somerset, having denied the
right of the Rector (the Rev. 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 CUIIIVIII of the ,ter ( whether incumbent
or curate) is iircesany to authorize the ringing of bells in
the church; and that the consent of either or built
churchwardens, without the .ler's consent, is nut
sufficient. '1 hat the ' ' ter's consent to the tinging of
the hells must alis Ays ilt bad: if the two churchwardens
differ, the consent of the minister and one chnrchwarden
would lie sufficient; but the consent of the minister against
both churchwardens wuul4 nut justify the ringitig, nor
would the consent of lath churchwardens against the
minister authorise it. That tbe 'roadster has authority to
limit the time of ringing, and that the ringers are bound to
obey him. And that no person has a right, without the
consent of the minister (whether isee iiiii bent or curate), to
place fiazs, garlands, or any thing else, either iu or upon
the chinch, or in the clutch-card."
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 any time specified
when they are to be issued. Every day's delay is it
matter of regret, as it is expected that they will, in
a great degree, diminish the number of timgeries.
We received u private letter on Saturday morning
from Dublin, stating that persons connected with
he Governhent there are now printing iu that c:ty,
the speeches Jim the late prosecution against the
Queen, with the intention of circulating them gratis
in Ireland.
