Ely-ENING EDITION.

CHANCERY COURT.--(THIS DAY.)

SWABEY V. 'AMISS.
The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment today in this
case, directing a reference to the Master.

CHAMBERLAIN V. LEE.
His LORDSHIP also gave judgment in th;s case, r.bich
came before his Lordship upon appeal frcm the decision of
his Honour, the Vice-Chancellor,: releasing a purchaser
from his purchase. His Lordship reversed the decision
of the Court below.

JUDGMENTS.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said there were several cases
waiting for judgment which it was his intention to dispose
of immediately, but as some of them were extremely heavy,
and required a great deal of consideratien, perhaps the
parties would agree among themselves to hive him an op-
portunity of disposing of them when he hi.d m 're leisure
than he had at presant. If, ho:-.-ever, thry would not,
then it would become his duty to dispose of thlse cases as
well as he could before he gave up the Seals. He thought,
however, that the parties would consult their own interests,
and save expense if they allowed him to adopt the precious
ccurse.

Mr, KNIGHT BIII1:,4E was sure that all parties would be
most anxious to have his Lordship's judgment, and in all
the cases in which he was engaged he would answer for
his clients giving every opportunity to his Lordship fully
to consider them.

The LORD CHANCELLOR would be glad to know from
parties what course it was their intention to pursue?
The SOLICITOR- GENERAL wished to know whether, un-
der existing circumstances, it was the intention of the
House of Lords to take the case of Lady Henley's Charity.,
next week ?
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that it was.

DFSAYVES V. NOBLE.
The Court then proceeded with the further arguments
in this part heard case.

VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

This being the last day of Easter Term, the VICE
CHANCELLOR proceeded with motions, none of which pos•
sessed any points of public interest.

CARLOW ELECTION COMMIT-
MITTEE.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning the Committee, after hearing tie boneiti
sion of the arguments in the case of Walter NC.1.t..11'
vote, objected to by the petitioner's Counsel, declared it to
be a good vote.

The next vote objected to by Mr. Gisborne's Counsel'
was that of a man named Leckie, on the same ground,
which appears likely to occupy them all day.

PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.

The Anniversary of this Society took place to-day at
Exeter flail. The Earl of Winchilsea in the Chair. The
large room was crowded, and on the platform we saw Mr.
Plumptrc, M. P., J. Hardy, Esq. (late M. P. for Brad-
ford), Rev. J. M'Ghee, and a number of Clergymen.
The side galleries were filled with ladies, among whom
were the Marchioness of Ormond, Lady Pomfret, Lady
Hamiilton, Honourable Mrs. Colquhoun, Lady Scott,
Countess of Galloway, Lady Baker, and the Bishop of
Winchester's family.
Letters were received from the Duke of Newcastle,
Earl of Roden, Sergeant Jackson, M. P., Edward Lit-
ton, Esq., M. P., &c. and others, apologizing for their
unrvoidable absence.

The adoption of the Report was moved by Mr. Plump-
tree, M. P. seconded by the Rev..W. Marsh, and carried
unanimously,
Mr. IIARDY in moving the second Resolution " That the
existing state,of public affairs justifies and calls for a course
of action adopted by the Protestant Association, viz : of
calling public attention by all legitimate means, to the
alarming political progress cf Popery : to its increasing
influence in the councils of the State, and to the continued
infringement of the oaths and solemn assurances under
the security of which Romanists have been admitted to
Parliament."—went into considerable detail as to the
proceedings of the Roman Catholic party in Ireland, especi-
ally animadverting on Mr. O'Connell's conduct, referring
to the Carlow Election transaction with Mr. Raphael,—to
the Learned Gentleman's harangues before the populace
in that country,—and to his political influence and lower
with the late Government.

The resolution was agreed to; as was another, strongly
deprecating the introduction of the Romish version of the
Scriptures into the Government schools of Ireland, and
the " attempts now making to withdraw the education of
the rising generation from the superintendence of the
Clergy of the Established Church."

The Rev. J. APGnEs spoke with Breath warmth in his
usual style.
The meeting lasted till near four.
