THE liltiG V. REDHEAD YORKE.

Upon motion of Mr. READER, the Rule for filing
a Criminal Information against the Defendant, for
re-publishing a Libel, in his Maly Political Re-
view, on Mr. Sullivan, one of the late Under Secre-
taries of State, was enlarged until next Term.

Sir VICAR Goss moved for a Writ of Habeas
Corpus, to bring up the body of William-Sridds, alias
Rudds, now on board His Majesty's Ship \Viuchel-
sea.

He moved this- upon the affidavit of the man's
wife, which stated,
.that he bad been all his life a
labouring man, at 'Hayes, in the County of K.ent ;
but, being out of work, he came to London to seek
some; when one day walking down the Banks of
the Thames, he was accosted by a man, who, asked
him if he wanted employment ?, and, being an-
swered in affirmative, he told him, if he would
go with him, he would-get him employed on board
oea Ship, -et the rate of 23 shillings per week. They
proceeded..to a public. house in-the-neighbourhood,
where the landlord brought in a written paper,
which be ,was desired .to sign ; he made his mark
on it, -but. it, was never 'read to him. A woman
next appeiired, who was represented to be the wife
of the publican, and came to' see 'birn. on board ;
they . got into a boat, and went down the river
to a ship; when they got alongside, the woman
Called out—" Here's a volunteer for you.".. He
immediately protested against such a proceeding,
but was taken on board the Ship; and from thence
conveyed on board the Winchelsea, now lying at
the Nore, where he has been kept upwards of two
months. He was there clothed in a jacket and
trowsers, but never received any sum of money ; on
the-contrary, he refused to take any; in consequence
of which he has been denied a bed to lie upcin, and
all this time has slept on the boards of the Ship.
The Court, upon this statement, granted
Writ.

DRAKE V. I'ARKHOUSE AND O'RESLLV.

Mr. GAMHOW sheaved cause against a Rule,
tanned by Mr. MAKRYATT, to set aside the judgment
in this cause, and to have a Warrant of Attorney,
and' three provisory notes, of 851. each, delivered
up, to be cancelled, :on the ground of usury. The
affidavits on which the Rule was supported
stated, that the Defendant, Parkhouse, being in
want of money, drew the notes in quustion, and
gave them to O'Reilly, who took therp to. the
Plaintiff, a kha=n-draper, in Made-;highway, to
discount them; this the latter refused to do, but
offered to give goods to the amount *Of 2001. and at
the same time professed himself ready 'to lay a
wager that the goods would sell for that-sum.
The Defetid^,nt, Parkhouse, being much embarrass-
ed, agreed .to this; and the (roods were delivered
to him, a great part of which were remnants;
a Warrant of Attorney, to the amount of the goods,
was alio executed by Parkhouse. The goods were
afterwards Owned and sold; and produced not
above half the sum they were valued to him at. it
also appeared that Park house had been represented
by O'Reilly as the husband of Lady Boynton, by
whom he was soon to obtain a large sum of mo-
ney from Colonel Thornton. Upon this, Drake
had been induced to give the goods; not as discount
on the notes, but .as a final sale, for the payment
of which he accepted :the Warrant -of Attorney.
He'denie.d the goods were remnants; and swore that
none of them were of less length thari 7 yards:

After hearing Mr. MARRYATT, shortly, in support
of the Rule, the Court we're of opinion that the best
method of. determining this que.tion would be for
an A6tion to be brought upon one ofthe Promissory
*.Notes, in which the.question of usury would be Wily
investierated.
The Rule' was therefore 'enlarged for that purpose.

I At 'die mordent, of the riiing (f the Court, the
• 210-ent for the Gentlemen concerned in this trade,
ho applied for Criminal Informations against five
Newspapers {as stated in our Paper of yesterday),
informed the'Court, that he was now prepared with
The supplementary affidavits, which their Lordships
direeted should be made.

One of the Officers of the. Court having read the
first affidatit, the others not being filed,
Lord ELLENVOROVGH declared it was insufficient,
ad suited in too general terms- for the Court to
grant the hale.- With respea to the other affidavits,
they had not been filed in due time, and therefore
'the Court could make •no
,order'upon them. • The
filet should be fully and Unequivocally denied, before
the Court could interfere.

The Rule,. therefore, was not granted, until such
affidavits as were satisfactory to the Court should be
made; and the matter consequently stands over until
text Term. ..

This being the last day Of Hilary Term, the Court
was occupied, until a late hour, in disposing of the
various Motions and peremptory Mules.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, FEE rt.

The only case of any interest argued this day, was
that of Lord Sherborne v. Lord Carhampton, which
was brought betorethe Court in the form of an ob-
jeaion to the particular of a certain estate occupied
by, the hitter, as tenant, and situated in the Parish of
Esher, in the county of Surrey. Mr. DAUNCEY
argued for the sufficiency of it, and Mr. LITTLE-
DALE for its incompetence. It appeared that Lord
Carhampton had held in his own hands this. estate
for twenty-four years, and that no rent had been
paid for it. The Court deemed, that the particular
delivered was sufficiently ckscriptive, and ordered,
that rent be paid for wentr-four years, at the rate of
1401. per annum, fzom tbe 31st of January, tlB3l,
constituting a sum of 33601.

" The following is the force under Brigadier-Gen.

manded by Lieut.-Colonel Ku;roToN;•' sth. FOot,
Ist battalion', Lieut.-Colonel DAVIE ; 36th Foot,

or Rifle' Corps, Ist battalion, 5 companies, Major
INPLEon together with 2 companies.of Artillery, a
proportion of the Corps of Royal Engineers, Artifi-
cers, and Drivers. The 9th Light Dragoons accom-
panied the Expedition to this ' place, and arc still
here. They are commanded by the Hon. Colonel
MAnos, who is senior to, and not under the orders
of General CRAWFURD. It is thought they will leave
US as soon as Admiral MURRAY joins.
" We experienced much bad weather in the early
part of the voyage, and several of the transports sits-
tallied some damage, in consequence of running foul
of each other in the night, the weather being very
foggy. The wind was so unfavourable that the Fleet
did not arrive off Madeira until the sth 'of Decem-
ber. The Commodore sent off,the Paulina Sloop,
and the two Schooners, with two Store Transports,
for the purpose of obtaining wine for the Fleet, but
these Yessels were un fortunately blown off the Island,
.and did not over take the, Fleet until a considerable
Aline after their arrival here. After suffering. a se:-
were gale off Madeira from the Northward, the Fleet
reached the Island of Palma carly,on the 7th. Here
we fell it; with the I'Ve7 eideFrigate, which had patted
from the Fleet very early in the voyage.
Previously to the landing of any part of the
troops, the General made the most prudent arrange-
ment with the Governor Of this place respe&ing
the regular establishment of a market, and the most
eireaual means of 01)taining refreshments for the
Nay'y and Army : in consequence "of which there
has been the most plentiful supply of all sorts of pro-
visions, fruit, &c. which the Island_ affords, though
not at a very reasonable rate„ The Governor has
been excessiyely attentive to the troops. To pre-
vent a surprise of the Fleet by an Erfemy's Squadron,
the General thought it prudent to erect a battery of
four .2z-pounders on the west point of the Bay of
Porto Praya, which is capable of raking vessels com-
ing into the ,Bay. • .
" We are perfectly ignorant whither we are des-.
tined. We are wearied witli,conjeCture. The fleet
is completely 'waffled, and we are now only waiting.
for the arrival of Admiral MURRAY, who is daily ex-
peCted.'! ,

• From the result of a course of experiments it ap-
pears that the strength, of the juice of any .cider-ap-
ple was in exa& proportion tb its weight. Thus the
juices of the interior apples were light when com-
pared 'with the juices of the old and improved sorts:
The Forest &ire outweighed every other, until it
was put in competition with' the new -variety pro-
Auced from the Siberian
_Crab and the Lulham

in weight to the latter. •
