CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

THE ATTORNET-GENERAL v. THE FISHMONGERS' C0M...61M

This case came before his Lordship upon appeal from the teciston of
the Master of the Rolls refusing the application of the defens. ants, the
Fishmongers' Company, with costs. The circumstances oft he case
were as follows :—Sir Thomas Kneseworth, who was Lord Ms. vor of
London in the latter end of the reign of Henry the Seventh, and !Pe be-
ginning of that of Henry the Eighth, by his will, dated in June, 1.115,
gave certain houses and property in the ea); of London in trust to
Fishmongers' Company, in the first place, te pay the expences of certa its
religious ceremonies in the Catholic Chapels of the city of Lon—
don ; secondly, to pay forty shillings yearly in small sums for the re—
lief of poor prisoners in Newgate, Ludgate, and the Fleet ; thirdly.
to furnish sums to provide wax tapers ; and the residue of the money
to be derived from the property in question, the testator directed to be
put up in the coffers of the Company, for the purpose of its lent out to
old men, &c , the Fishmongers Company contending that they were
now absolutely entitled to the property, and that they did not hold it un-
der any charitable trust, by the direction of the Charity Commissioners.
An information was filed for the purpose of having the declaration of
court, that the Fishmongers Company were trustees of the, property in
question. Answers were put in by the defendants to the informa-
tion, and the whole matter was ready for healing when the
relators discovered another will of Sir Thomas Kneseworth,
made six weeksbefore the will produced by the defendants. As it was
considered that that will would tend to assist in the construction of
what the testator meant, the relators applied to the Master of the Rolle
for leave, notwithstanding the information was ready for hearing, to
give the second will in evidence, or to be at liberty to amend the in.
formation by introducing it, or to file a supplemental information. Upon
the case coming on before the Master of the Rolls, his Lordship,although
he admitted that the second will might be of importance, considered that
by ‘..",e rules of the Court, he could not do what was asked, and dis.
m•„ed application with costa. From that decision the present ap.
peal was brs.7:l,B=ht•
Mr. Coorea at.,
•neared as Counsel for the appellants, and Mr. Wtonew
and Mr. Rommi,v ;,norted the judgment of the Court below.
His 1* LORDSHIP iS of opinion with the Master of the Rolls,
1
that he could not have made the order asked as the matter then stood,
and affirmed the judgment of O: Court below with cos:s.

IRELAND.

(FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT.)
DUBLIN, JULY 16
Tim hISII PRESS.—Another newspaper has paid the pe-
nalty of echoing public opinion, and fallen a victim to a clique.
The li'exfin-d Independent has just been mulcted in 4001. da-
mages for a libel upon Dr. Elrington, a Fellow of Trinity
College, and a very zealous tithe-parson. This verdict, which
involves heavy damages, will extinguish the journal, and give
the most satisfactory triumph to its enemies. This is the
tenth action fur libel which has been instituted against the
Irish press within the last three months —and in every case
that has yet gone to trial the verdict has been against the
m wspaper.
STATE OF THE COUNTRY.—The result of the Assizes will
demonstrate the rapid decrease of crime in this country. The
cases disposed of at t:•ose which have already taken place are
remarkable not only for their paucity but fur their common-
place nature, being n.erely 'he offences that occur in all com-
munities. Ennis and Limer;ek were maiden Assizes, and at
the latter the presiding Judge was presented with a pair of
white gloves fringed with gold, to mark the circumstance. In
Roscommon Mr. Justice Perrin congratulated the Jury upon
the lightness of the calendar; in Wicklow Judge Moore did
the same; and in Drogheda there was but eight cases, all of
a trifling nature, to Le disposed of. In Clare also, and se-
vela' other counties, the improvement in the calendar called
forth the observations of the presiding Judges. Upon the
whole the result will be highly satisfactory.
Till TWELFTH OF JULY.-You were properly borne out in
your observations relative to the 12th. by the conduct of the
Orangemen. They have b, en as riotous and insolent in every
quarter as they dare, and but for the precautions of Govern-
ment, blood would unquestionably have been spilled. In
Armagh, Enniskillen, Limerick, Belfast, the county Donegal,
Patigo (where it was rumoured that they intended to burn
the Priest's house), and a hundred other places, they had pro-
cessions, with music and decorations. At King's county,
county Cavan, several demonstrations were attempted, and
when a party of the military and police was called out they
came up with 409 Orangemen, whom they dispersed. In
Monaghan the stipendiary Magi:trate had to take away their
flags asd drums ; and in Clare he found it necessary to read
the Riot Act, and forcibly disperse the illegal mob.
