or under any cirCurriatatic64, take. upon himself to
say-that this original Order should be disobeyed, or
dispensed with, is a thing which I do not under-
stand. This is a very good, as well as a very old
Order of the Court. Under what authority does-any
Master take upon himself to dispense with that Or-
der ? Let them obey that Order,. and Receivers will
pass their accounts and pay their balances, I have
no doubt. ' But the present practice of dispensing
• with, the Order is abominable ;' tor I will .Nrriture,io
say there have occurred in my time 100 cases "in
this Court, some of which may be..depending per-
haps-at 'this moment, in which the Receiver, or
Collector- of money,, under the auttorityi. of this
Court, looks to nothing but to that of obtaining
the authority of the Court to become such Receiver;
he receives money troth time to time,.• which is to
be appropriated to the maintenance of children, and
on they-go for 20 years together, without passing
their accounts at all; and when the party arrives at
majority, the Whole account is closed up,
\and this
Court hears nothing of the balance.; nor.-indeed of
the stale, of the accounts. When
,ever these this s.
happen, and they have too often happened, it is the
fault of the Master for not enforcing the Order of the
Court, which Order J have mentioned. This evil
must be correaled."-L-This appeared -to-have the 'ef-
fe6t, as it were, of a thunderbolt on some parties ;
but we ought
.to observe, it was not applied to the.
particular case before the Court.

QUEEN-SRUARE.—An old man, grey headed,
apparently of the age of sixty, was brought up -to
answer a charge made by the parents of a, young fe-
male under thirteen, of having committed a rape.
.The charge was proved very substantially by the
child and the 'surgeon who examined her, and was
then acknowledged by the hoary,offerider; who of,
fered by way of amends to make a settlement for
:life on her of to I. per. annum. This would not. be
Jistened to by the Magistrates, who' committed him
to prison for trial.
. On Saturday Mr. J. H. of Folkstone, was com-
mitted to Westgate gaol by the Mayor of Canter-.
bury on suspicion of forgery. On his,being charged
with the offence, he attempted to put an end to his
existence at the Union ,Bank in that city, by shoot-
ing himself with a pistol,. which, hoWever, he did
not accomplish, as the ball, after passing through his
clothes, and inflicting a wound against one of his
ribs, tell upon
.the floor. conjectured that part
of the charge of powder had 'shaken out of the
pistol by carrying it in his poCka, which' prevented
the fatal effects he meditated.

SuiciDe.—Yesterday mcrniug a Gentleman of
the name of Stuart, residin't; in Brompton Crescent,
Chelsea, walked to Bromvon Row, and called for a
coach from the stand. The Coachman refused to
take him, when he immediately returned home, and
soon after shot himself with a pistol, and instantly
expired.

.CANINE AFFECTION.--Ott Wednesday se'nnight a
gentleman's groom went to Windsor from Stoke
Green on horseback, accompanied by three dogs,
two pointers and a terrier; on his return, within
about half a Mile of home, the horse on. which he
rode took 'fright, threw him, and ran home, attended
by two of the dogs, the terrier and one pointer. The
appearance of the horse at home without the man na-1
t orally excited in the minds of the other servants an
apprehension that some accident had befallen him,
and two of them, a man and a wornan,i.vent in quest of
him. ,After searching in vain about two hours in the
lane which is in the dire& road to Windsor; they were
induced to look into the cross road, whither they
went through a field'; whilst in the field, the man
called the groom's name aloud; which was answer-
ed by the barking of a dog. The woman observing
that she thought it the voice of the dog which, had
not come home, they direaed their course to the snot
whence the voice priiceeded. As scion' as they, got
into the lane, they descried a dog at a distance mak-
ing tower& them, which proved to be the very dOg.
Upon coming up to thefts, he'discovered alternate
symptoms of joy and uneasiness, an 4 ran before
thew, as if desirous of shewiug them the cause.
They fill Owed, when lo ! he condu6ted them to the
spot where: lay the Mad in a' ditck by the load-side,
apparenily lifeless. They, carried him home, and laid
him an 3 bed, the-dog staying with him the whole
tune, and by a whining noise discovering his anxiety,
The persous who were in the'room made several at-
tempts to turn' the dog out, hilt without Success ;
they were at length so won upon by the creature's
manners, that they allowed him to remain;' when he
at length .placed himself on. the man's 6eA, and,
watched him With the most painful anxiety, and as ,
he groaned, so did the dog Mourn, prOportiohing,
the height and duhstion of his voice to that of tbq`,
main ; nor did be quit the bed until twelve es"el(SeW.
. of the following day, when the man seemed restored:
to his senses. What is more remarkable is; that_
front-the time he was laid upon the bed, the, Man,
,was alternately'affeaed with a stupor or total Oen-,
sihility, and a most: ungovernable frenzy, and in-the
latter state directed his violence to the poor animal,
treating- bins most unmercifully, but the dog would
not. leave hiM.
Tuesday afternoon a desperate pitched battle•was
fought in Tothill-fields, between i•tollinan and a
: butcher. They -had nineteen rounds, which lasted
for three quarters of an hour, when vi&ory was de-
clared in favour Of the tont-Ilan. The butches--was
severely beaten, and was carried off to a coach. The
toilman also received many desperate blows. They
fOught for a purse of ten guineas, which was bsci?d
with five guineas more by-each c.f the parties. tloneS
Was second to the tollinan, and another Well-knoWn
band on the Turf was second to the butcher. `A pro-
digious multitude.were present. '
