ROLLS' COURT.-SATURDAY.

HORNER V. LADY CHAMBERS.
Mr. TRESLOVE stated this was a bill filed by the plain-
tiff. Mr. Horner, against Lady Chambers, for the specific
performance of as agreement, to take a lease for 21 years
of a house and premises, No. 2, Cumberland-terrace, Re-
gent's-park, at a rent of 2401. a year.
Mr. PEMBERTON, for Lady Chambers, contended that
she was not bound in equity to comply with the agreement,
as the plaintiff had not fulfilled his part.
Counter affidavits and depositions were read by Counsel,
who argued that no claim equitably ekisted.
The MASTER of the ROLLS discharged the bill, with
costs.

Four others started, but were not placed.
The line chosen was circular, and so severe that nothing but an
extraordinary game horse could have staved the course. The run-
ing up to the first brook was made by Paddy from Cork, it was then
taken up, and the pace improvad by Barrister (Captain Fendall),
who continued his lead for at least two miles; Lady Teazle was first
over-the second brook, one mile from him, cleared it beautifully,
maintained her place, and won in a canter by 20 lengths. Two
horses broke their backs—viz., Austerity at the first brook, and The
Star at the second ; both were killed directly. Pilot also was
ruined at the second brook. The winner, which is half sister to
Grimaldi, was claimed. The second horse was won easily by Nat,
in consequence of Viator's falling into a water drain, by which he
lost at least 200 yards ; he was beaten about three lengths.

HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.

The following is the report presented to the House of
Lords, on Thursday night, from the Select Committee on
the rebuilding of the Houses of Parliament :
" That the Committee had met, and considered the re-
port referred to them, and had inspected the four plans
mentioned in the said report, and marked respectively
Nos. 64, 14, 13, and 42, and had come to the following
resolutions, viz.:—
" Resolved, 1. That the Committee, while they acknow-
ledge great merit in all the plans laid before them, concur
in the opinion of the Commissioners, as expressed by them
in their report to his Majesty, in giving a preference to the
plan marked No. 64.
" Resolved, 2. That it is the opinion of this Committee
that the plan No. 64 ought to be so far adopted as to be
made the basis of immediate further inquiries in respect, to
the cost of the plan, and to the best mode of carrying it
into execution, and to any variations, consistent with its
general character and object, which may be found expedient.
" Resolved, 3. That it is the opinion of this Committee
that a humble Address should be presented to his Majesty
to request that his Majesty will be graciously pleased to
order that the further inquiries mentioned in the preceding
resolution be made forthwith, under the superintendence of
the Commissioners of his Majesty's Woods and Forests,
assisted by such authorities as they shall think fit to con-
sult for the occasion.
" That the Committee having examined Mr. Barry, the

architect who prepared the plan 64, have annexed that
gentleman's examination, as it contains a statement of the
principles on which that plan has been founded. Ordered
to be printed. And a humble Address ordered to be pre-
sented to his Majesty, that there be made forthwith, under
the superintendence of the Commissioners of his Majesty's
Woods and Forests, assisted by such authorities as they
shall think fit to consult for the occasion, immediate further
inquiries in respect to the cost of the plan marked 64 (re-
commended by the Commissioners in their Report to his
Majesty upon the plans offered for the rebuilding of the
Houses of Parliament), and to the best mode of carrying
the same into execution ; and also to any variations, con-
sistent with its general character and object, which may be
found expedient."
The Address was presented on Saturday to his Majesty.

ALCESTER STEEPLE CHASES.-FRIDAY.,

Sweepstakes of 5 sovs. each, with 50 added. About four miles.
Second horse to receiveback his stake.
Mr. Greaves's c. g. Midnight Patrick 1
Mr. Vevers's Ada
Mr. Marshall's Foreigner ...Troughton 3
Mr. Homfray's Harlequin
Six others started, but were not placed.
lied Rose took the lead in fine style, and kept it for three or four
fields, when he went on the wrong side of the flag, and was obliged
to turn back, in consequence of which he was unable to come up
again, and Midnight bore away the palm. The contest, however,
was of the most spirited description, each horse taking the fences
admirably well. In the last two or three fields only five of them
were to be seen. At the last fence Midnight was very nearly down,
and was finely run in by Ada, closely followed by Foreigner and
Harlequin, but won the race, after a severe contest, by a length.
Sweepstakes of 3 sovs. each, with 25 added. Winner to be sold for
30 sovs., if demanded.
Mr. Vevers's Viator
Mr. Holyoake's Wild Boy
Mr. Walker's Piccanini Wallack 3
Mr. Ashurn's Jack hens 4
Viator took the lead, followed by Piccanini, over three or four
fields, when Wild Boy came up second, leaving Piccanini third,
and Jack considerably behind. On clearing the last fence, Viator
and Wild Boy were so close together that the winner was doubtful ;
but the former went in with a fine spirit, and gallantly outstripped
his antagonist by four or five lengths.
London, England, 1836-03-21

VICE-CHANCERY.-SATURDA.Y.

LLOYD V. LLOYD.
This cause was before the Court on Friday, and was con-
cluded to-day. The question was whether covenants in
marriage articles by the respective fathers of the intended
husband and wife were concurrent, so that non-performance
by the one was an excuse for non-performance by the other.
Previous to the marriage of Evan Lloyd and Esther Ste-
phens articles were executed in 1777, which recited gene-
rally that Evan Lloyd, the father of the intended husband,
had agreed, in case the marriage should take effect, to settle
an estate called Tynpwlly and Bryn Mawr, in Carmarthen-
shire ; and that James Stephens and his wife had agreed,
upon the same event, to settle a moiety of another estate
called Glandead, in Pembrokeshire, when their daughter,
Esther Stephens, should come of age. It then contained
a covenant by E. Lloyd, the elder, in case the intended
marriage should take effect, and James Stephens and his
wife, or the survivor of them, should, as soon as Esther
Stephens should be 21, convey and assure the moiety of the
estate to be settled by them, that he would settle his estate
upon the issue of the marriage in tail. No settlement had
ever been made of the Lloyd estates, but they descended
to the eldest son of the marriage, who lately died with-
out issue, after devisinc, the estates to his wife. The pre-
sent bill was filed by the second son of the marriage to re-
cover the estates from her.
Mr. KNIGHT contended that the covenants of Lloyd and
and Stephens were distiuct, and that any other construc-
tion of these very informal articles would be absurd.
Mr. JACOB, for the widow, contended that if the cove-
nants were made expressly concurrent or conditional, as in
this case, there was no reason for not giving effect to the
express contract of the parties.
His HONOUR observed, the only question was, what was
the fair meaning of the parties. The true intent was that
each of the parties should independently settle their estates,
and the plaintiff was, therefore, entitled to have a settle-
ment made in the manner he proposed.
Costs were not asked.
London, England, 1836-03-21

CHANCERY

COURT.--SATURDAY.

IN RE NORRIS.
Mr. BETHEL asked for an order in this case to restrain
certain persons connected with Lieut.-Colonel Norris, an
alleged lunatic, from removing from his house furniture and
other property pending the inquiry directed by the Court.
The object of the application was solely the protection of
the property until the result of the commission of inquiry
was ascertained.
The LORD CHANCELLOR examined the affidavits, and
granted the order.
THE SKINNERS' COMPANY V. THE IRISH SOCIETY.
This was a motion argued some time since, and dismissed
by the Lords Commissioners with costs, its object being to
dispossess the Irish Society of that controul over the estates
in Ulster granted by a charter of Charles 11. to the twelve
great companies of the city of London.
Mr. KNIGHT now applied for an intimation of the opinion
of the Court with respect to the terms of the order to be
drawn up in compliance with the decision of the Lords
Commissioners. The registrar had refused to draw up the
order with any mention of the numerous papers and docu-
ments used in the course of the argument, although not in-
cluded in the answer, alleging that the. course was to con-
fine the terms of the order to the answer and affidavits.

Mr. WIGRAM argued that the practice was invariably in
accordance with that which the Registrar proposed to pur-
sue on this occasion.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the Registrar informed
him that, according to his own experience, and the expeti-
ence of others whom he had consulted, the orders never in-
cluded any thing except the answer and affidavits, and
there was no reason in the present case to depart from the
ordinary practice.
Mr. WIGRAM asked for the costs of this application.
The question of costs of the motion stood over.
PEACHEY V. PEACHEY.
Mr. WIGRAM moved in this case to discharge the de-
fendant, William Peachey, out of custody, to which he had
been committed for contempt. The parties are relations,
contending for the possession of about 100 acres of fen
land in the county of Cambridge. In August last, the
Vice-Chancellor granted an injunction to restrain the de-
fendant from committing waste by cutting sedge out of
season on the land in question pending the progress of the
suit. This injunction the defendant was alleged to have
violated, and the Vice-Chancellor committed him to the
Fleet.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said as the defendant had been
already confined for twenty weeks, he might now be dis-
charged on paying the costs.

_
The Proprietors of these two Reviews, one of them for many
years the principal Philosophic Organ of the Thorough Reformers
—the other more recently established with the same object, and
addressed to the same class of readers--have considered that the
purposes of both would be best promoted by the union of their
strength. On the 31st of March, therefore, will be'published
THE LONDON AND WESTMINSTER REVIEW.

This Work will be under the sole management of the Editors of
the LONDON REVIEW, who have already numbered among
their contribUtors the most able of the early writers of THE
WESTMINSTER REVIEW. Every feature in either work
which has contributed to their usefulness, reputation, and success,
will be retained. As THE LONDON AND WESTMINSTER

union of which it is formed, the forthcoming number will be lettered

Gross produce of 561- acres of meadow and
pasture £lO7 0 0
It will be seen that the value of the gross produce
of the arable land is about 11. 4s. per acre, the value
of the gross produce of the meadow and pasture is
about 1/. 17s. per acre, though the land under the
plough and that not under the plough are, as nearly
as may be, of the same quality, and would yield about
the same rent. The gross tithe, after making a re-
duction of 25 per cent. according to clause 29 of the
Bill, would be represented by a perpetual rent charge
of 10s. 9d. per acre on the arable, and about 2s. 9d.
per acre on the pasture (subject to a variation common
to both rents according to the average prices of corn).
The difference between the charge on the different
lands of the same farm is, of course, of no conse-
quence ; but when we consider that different classes of
landowners in England are represented by the 99
acres which are to be charged in perpetuity at 10s. 9d.,
and the 562 acres which are to be charged at 2s. 9d.,
how intolerable will the injustice appear ? Although
the owner of the 99 acres may now pay a tithe equal
to the amount of the threatened rent charge, yet, when
it suits his altered circumstances, or the altered cir-
cumstances of the country, that his land be laidinto
grass, he escapes the heavy burden. But when he
has once become subject to a perpetual rent charge,
this escape is not open to him. He may, indeed, as
before, lay his land under grass, but he will be sub-
ject to a rent three or four times as high as that
charged on grass land of similar quality. His
misfortunes will not end here. Those who have
had farms under pasture (the owners of the 562
acres), not having any longer thetfelaedr ofbytitheiir
kind before their eyes, will be enabled,
break-
ing up their lands, to come into competition with
the owners of the land already under tillage.
The latter will be crushed not only by their own

# We confess t. his appears too high. But any reasonable
deduction from thisitem will not materially affect the conclu-
sion, and in many arable districts the bean crops substituted
for turnips are very productive.

The business done in Cotton this week is extensive, at a further
improvement of fully 14d. per lb. on American descriptions, other
kinds going off freely at very full prices ; the market closes healthy,
and with a decidedly firm appearance. Speculators have taken
8,50() American, 200 Egyptian, and 100 Maranham ; and exporters
400 American, 750 Surat, and 700 Bengal. The imports are,
24,035 from the United States, 4,210 from the Brazils, 295 from
Demerara, 1,619 from Carthagcna, and 6,961 from Bombay; total,
37,120 bags. The sales comprise—

THE STAMP DUTIES.

The subjoined observations on the proposed measure of
the Chancellor of the Exchequer relative to the reduction
of the stamp duty to one penny is extracted from the Atlas :
" We are not prepared to offer any opinion as to the
operation of the penny stamp in other respects. How far
it is calculated to diminish the extent of the illegal combina-
tions by which the stamped press has hitherto been invaded
we cannot venture to conjecture ; but, although it considera-
bly reduces the temptation to violate the law, there is no
doubt that the unprincipled adventurers who can see no im-
morality in committing a fraud for fourpence are not un-
likely to commit the same fraud for the lesser gain of one
penny ; and we are inclined to suspect that the result of the
working of the Bill will be to draw into the illegal practice
a still more degraded class of newsmongers, to whom the
reduced duty will offer a sufficient premium. But this ar-
gument, we are aware, will apply to all imposts in common,
and can be considered only as a further appeal to the Go-
vernment for protection. If there be a stamp, those who
pay it have a right to expect the benefits of taxation ; and
we hope that the proposed measure will be accompanied by
such enactments as shall make it effective.
" It would be very desirable to introduce with the new
Bill, or to provide by any other means, a better stamp, and
a better mode of stamping, than are at present in use. The
stamp itself is so coarse, and the mode of stamping it so
irregular, that the impression is not only faint and indis-
tinct but might be easily imitated by the most ordinary me-
chanical skill. There is no difficulty in procuring a stamp
that would diminish the facilities of imitation, and at the
same time secure the sheet from the risk of escaping the
impress—which is now often the case—in the process of
of stamping. A serious penalty, as our readers are aware,
falls upon every unstamped paper, yet it frequently happens,
in the hurried way in which the persons appointed to stamp
the sheets execute their duty, that some sheets receive
scarcely half a stamp, while others are double stamped, and
some not stamped at all. On one occasion we were served
with an exchequer writ in consequence of a sheet of the
Atlas having appeared without a stamp ; but upon exami-
nation it was discovered that one sheet had received the
impression of two stamps and a half, another only half a
stamp, whilst a third was altogether unstamped, arising
from the manner in which impressions are multiplied to save
time. We are bound to add, however, that upon a repre-
sentation of these circumstances the proceedings were im-
mediately quashed. It is needless to urge upon the atten-
tion of Government the necessity of considering this part of
the subject attentively, forming as it does an important
part of the machinery by which the duty is to be enforced.'

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 21 ,18$6,

As the question of the Consolidation of the Stamp
Duties comes on for discussion to-night in the House
of Commons, it may not perhaps be amiss if we hint
to the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER the pro-
priety of allowing the Stamps relating to Newspapers
to form a Bill by themselves. There is nothing like
simplicity of legislation, and to mix up the question of
the Newspaper Stamps with others with which it has

not the slightest affinity, can only tend to create con-
fusion and embarrassment. Besides, it is one of a
most important and peculiar nature, and as such should
be considered by itself, without reference to other
Stamp regulations. At present it is buried beneath a
load of incongruous matter. We trust Mr. SPRING
RICE will see fit to adopt our hint as respects the
Newspaper Stamp Duties,

The Report of the Commissioners for inquiring into
the system of !Military punishments in the Army, is
worthy of the judicial genius of Lord ELDON. No
gold-beater in the full perfection of his art, ever equal-
led in metallic distension the wonder produced by these
doubt-distending Commissioners. The Report is from
first to last a distended doubt—a long-drawn hesita-
tion. The propriety of a change in the system of
Military Punishment was very problematical when the
Commission was appointed ; and we have now the satis-
faction of knowing that it remains so, and for what the
Commissioners can tell to the contrary, may remain so
till the " crack of doom." In the discharge of
what they assure us they regarded as a most important
duty, they examined 'a great number of witnesses,
whose evidence, as it was very conflicting, had the
effect of puzzling them in such a manner as to leave
them entirely undecided. From the whole tenor of
the Report, it appears that the Commissioners would
have had no difficulty in coming to a decision, had
only the advocates of one opinionlbeen examined. It
is to their anxiety to grapple with the whole question,
instead of being satisfied with one half of it, that we
areindebted for one of the most curious specimens of
a Report in the language. In their eagerness to prove
the care with which they have examined the subject,
the Commissioners quote the leading points of the evi-
dence in their Report, which they refute after a fashion
peculiar to themselves ; and having thus shewn all the
witnesses to be wrong, they very logically :conclude
that all systems are alike defective—that their relations
are very complicated—and that, in plain English, they
can neither make head nor tail of the whole qffair.

SHERIFFS' COURT.--TUESDAY.

F. W. MULLINS, ESQ., M.P. V. HUTCH.
This was an action to recover the sum of 101. advanced
to the defendant, who resides in Craven-street.
The plaintiff, who is a Member of Parliament for one of
the Irish Boroughs, having occasion for the sum of '2,0001,
applied to the defendant, a Gentleman engaged in procuring
loans by way of annuity, to obtain for him the sum in ques-
tion, it being understood, as per written agreement, that
the sum required should be forthcoming at a given tune.
For this accommodation the plaintiff signed and exchanged
written.agreements to pay the defendant for his services the
sum of 6.5/., and in fulfilment of that agreement he advanced
and paid to him the sum of 10/. on account, which sum was
to be returned if the money was not advanced at the stated
period. It was, not forthcoming, and the plaintiff now sought
to recover 11E4 the sum so advanced.
. Verdict; 'was returned for the plaintiff,

MARYLEBONE.

At the 'evening sitting on Monday, six ruffianly-looking
fellows, named Martin Donovan, Daniel Daly, Timothy
Quill, Martin Quill, john Brown, and Timothy Kelly,
were placed at the bar, together with Mary Quill, a
middle-aged woman, of forbidding appearance, charged with
having savagely attacked and beaten Timothy Leonard,
who, from the dreadful injury inflicted on him, is not ex-
pected to survive.
Donovan and Daly were discharged, and the other pri-
soners were remanded till Monday next.
Leonard is in very great danger.
BEGGING.—A middle-aged man, who gave his name
Walter Cross, and who is said to he the brother of Mr.
Cross, the proprietor of the Surrey Zoological Gardens, was
brought before the Magistrates by Luke Laney, an officer
belonging to the Mendicity Society, charged with begging.
The prisoner, in his defence, was not begging, but merely
offering matches for sale. He had been wounded in his
hand in a naval engagement, and was in consequence. unfit
for work. •
Mr. HosoNs—That is no reason why you should ex-
pose your shattered limb in the streets to frighten and alarm
females. You are committed to prison for a month.
Prisoner—l hope not, your Honour ; I've been a good
man in my time.
Mr. • Hos KIN s (to the gaoler)—Take him away.--He
was accordingly removed to the lock-up.

LAMBETH-STREET.

Yesterday a man in the garb of a mechanic, applied to
the Magistrates, Messrs. Hardwick and Norton, for their
'advice and assistance. The applicant more than twelve
months ago had pledged an article at .the shop of Mr.
Aaron, a pawnbroker, in Whitechapel road, for one shil-
ling, and it was not in his power to redeem it until after
twelve months had expired. On the previous day, how-
ever, his wife on passing the shop of Mr. Aaron ob-
served the article hung up at the door for sale, and on
asking the price of it she was asked seven shillings. She
then stated the tact of the property being hers, and its be-
ing pledged by her husband for one shilling, and tendered
that sum, together with interest for the whole of the time
to tho shopman, but he refused to deliver it up, unless the
sum he had before stated, namely seven shillings, was paid..
Mr. Orman, the chief Clerk, in reply to a question from
Mr. Hardwick, said that under the PaWnbrokers' Act, there
could be no doubt the Magistrates had no summary juris-
diction, in cases where the property pawned for any sum
less than ten shillings, was out of date nearly 12 months
after the time of pawning ; but whether or not the pawn-
brokers were liable to an action, for the difference between
the principal and interest, and what the property might be
sold for, had never been decided.

- Mr. HAramick told the applicant that under the circum,
stances they (the Magistrates) could not interfere.

taken the subject into consideration, and a Bill for the re-

introduced into the House of Representatives. There was,
in fact, not any doubt that the losses of the merchants, &c.,

GREENWICH PETTY SESSIONS.

Yesterday John Little was placed at the bar for re-exa-
mination on several charges of obtaining large quantities of
potatoes, &c., from farmers and others residing in Kent, by
means of false and fraudulent pretences.
We have already given the particulars of the first exami-
nation of the prisoner. Upon this occasion six new charges
were brought against him ; and
The CHAIRMAN said be stood remanded until next
Tuesday, in order that other charges might be brought
against him. At the same time security of 2001. and 48
hours' notice of bail would be taken for his appearance.
Mr. THACKERY and Mr. MILLINGTON both requested
the Chairman to say something respecting publicity.
Mr. YOUNG said his colleagues had anticipated him by
their request. He had no doubt the public press would use
its influence to prevent the prisoner's escaping punishment.
The prisoner was then removed.

The English Funds have made an unusually large ad-
vance to-day ; Consols for the opening are upwards of
per cent. better, the last quotation being 884 to -3- . Ex-
chequer Bills are also progressing upwards ; the premium
is now lls. to 135., that on India. Bonds is 10s. to 12s.
(From the Times.)
A decided change for the better has been manifested at
the Stock-Exchange, but it seems to be chiefly the conti-
nuance of the effect noticed on Monday—the purchases of
persons entertaining distrust of private credit, and resorting
to the funds as a secure investment, added, perhaps, to the
embarrassment of the speculators for a fall, who anticipate
a still greater scarcity of stock, and are anxious to close
their accounts. Some surprise is expressed that the Bank
do not sell Exchequer-bills, now that that the market has
become so much stronger ; and it would certainly seem
that no traces of any such operation are to be detected ;
but it has been mentioned that direct sales of those se-
curities have been avoided, by the expedient of making them
the medium of payment for some large transactions in ex-
changes, which the parties themselves have afterwards con-
verted into money. To a limited extent this may have
been done, but the market is too firm for this to have oc-
curred to an extent to relieve the Bank materially of the
quantity they hold of these securities. All the sales known
to have proceeded within these two or three days from that
quarter were in India bonds, and those but to an insigni-
ficant amount. The encouragement to hold Exchequer-bills
still, no doubt arises from the state of the exchanges, which
continue favourable, and it is said that in the course of the
week a large importation of gold may be expected from France.
