'EXCHEQUER COURT--(THIS DAY•)

REX V. SHILLIBEER.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL appeared this morning to sin)°,
cause against a rule calling upon the Crown to go before the
:Master, in order to find out what was the real amount due un-
der an extent issued against the goods and stock of the de'
fendant.

The defendant is the large omnibus proprietor, who got int°
difficulties, and ran behind in his payments at the Stoll)"
Office. They issued an extent, under which the defendant e
stock was seized. He relieved it by depositing the amount,
viz., 1,5201. Upon a former day Mr. Manning obtained &
rule Nisi, calling upon the Crown to show cause why the
Master should not find what sum was actually due under the
extent, and why the residue4hould not be paid over to the de-
fendant.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said there was a much larger c,llll
due than what was alleged on the other side, viz. 700/..
the Court were to make the rule absolute it would be worse
for the defendant, for the Solicitor of the Stamps would merely
have to pay over the balance with one hand while with the
other he seized it again under another extent which had el"
ready been issued.

Mr. MANNING was certain the Court would not discharge
the rule. If a person borrowed 5001., and gave a bond for
1,000/., would the Court allow the holder to retain the 'anal'
on the plea that there was another debt upon some other bead.
Mr. BARON ALDERSON said the Court would not do that,
but the defendant here had paid the money iu order to relieve
his stock, so that the money was now applicable to the par
ment of the extent, and must abide the issue of that new
one, which was now out. The rule must therefore be dis-
charged.
The rest of the Court concurred, and the rule was dig-
charged.

HATTON-GARDEN.

On Saturday, a strange-looking being, with a long bei rd,
who was attired in a white bat, white trowsers, white waist-
Coat, white shirt, cravat and stockings, but having no coat,
was brought before Mr.. RoCEns.
Richards,. a policeman, soon after twelVe- o'clock on the
previous night, was rather startled as he was passing St.
James's Church, Clerkenwell, at hearing a low moaning,
aad at the same instant, beholding a figure, all in white,
making strange sorts of gestures, and occasionally prostrat-
ing itself upon the flags under the porch of the Church.
Having clambered over the railing, which is eight feet high,
witness walked up to the object of his surprise, and found
it to be the prisoner. When witness required him to ex-
plain who be was, and what brought him there, he said that
he was the true Shiloh, and was worshipping God. Wit-
ness informed him that St. Mark's Church, Pentonville,
had recently been robbed in the night-time, by parties who
be suspected,.had as much claim to be " Shiloh " as he
had ; and led him to the station-house.

Mr. ROGERS (to the pri3oner)—Where do you live ?
Dolendant (lifting up his eyes)—l. have no home but in
Heaven.

Mr. no-oEns—What is your name ? Defendant—l am
Shiloh.

Mr. RouElls—How dare you stand there and tell such a
lie ? Defendant (solemnly)--I should say falsely if I said I
was my one else.
Inspector Penny here stated that the defendant had that
morning informed him that he had arrived from New South
Wales within the last ten days, England, as he said, being
nearer heaven, whither, he said, he was making his way.
He did not tell witness what course he now intended to
take to net to his journey's end.
Mr. Roctits—Then I'll see if the House of Correction
discipline will bring him to his senses. (To the prisoner) I
shall send you to the tread-mill for three weeks.

The prisoner turned up the whites of his eyes, and on
hearing Waddington, the gaoler say, " Here, come this
way," he turned round, saying., " Thy will be done!" and
walked to the lock-up house as "a lamb to the slaughter."

HOLD MANORIA L FARMS, FOR SAFE INVESTMENT,

. _ _

AN Exceedingly Valuable FREEHOLD PRO
PERTY, for

THE SECURE INVESTMENT OF CAPITAL.
This observation (which is made advisedly) will be fully demon-
strated by a single paragraph ; and facts, it will be remembered;
ate stubborn things :
IT IS ALL FREEHOLD,
TITHE FREE, LAND TAX REDEEMED,
MOST RESPECTABLY OCCUPIED,
AND A MODERATE POOR-RATE.

The capitalist will generally look in vain for so many important
temptations to realize their Stock at the present very high price of
permanent security
IN TERRA FIRMA.

Already a favourable re-action is apparent, and good sense will
point out the necessity of making the favourable exchange which
has been alluded to before it is too late to do so, with the present
encouraging prospect. First,
A FREEHOLD TITHE FREE ESTATE,

NINE HUNDRED AND TEN ACRES,
including Two Farms, within sixteen miles of the
CAPITAL MARKETS OF BURY AND THETFORD,
in the county of Suffolk, on Lease to a most respectable Tenant,
at a moderated rent of SOOT. per annum. It is situate in a fertile part
of the county, at Undley, within six miles of Brandon and five of
Mildenhall, fourteen from Newmarket, and within easy access of
FIVE CAPITAL MARKET TOWNS.

The Farm abodes are all worthy of their respectable occupancy,
and the

RENT PAID MOST PUNCTUALLY.
The Land generally partakes of the general fertility for which the
county is proverbial, and u a Stock Farm it hath peculiar claims.

EXPARTE RIGBY.

Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case, which was an
application to set aside a judgment on a writ of scire facias,
the party having been one of the recognizances, on the ground
of irregularity. On the writ having been lodged in the
Sheriff's office, a letter was written to Mr. Rigby, directed to
his seat in Lancashire, apprizing him of the proceedings
against him, but Mr. Rigby had gone abroad. It appeared
that before judgment was signed, notice had been served on
the bail, and he had no person to blame but himself if the
notice had not reached him, as he should have left some per-
son to watch the proceedings and render. There did not
seem to the Court any want of regularity in the proceedings,
and therefore the rule for setting aside the judgment must be
discharged, with costs.
HAIGH V. BELCHER.

This was an action of trespass brought by the plaintiff
against Belcher and two others, assignees of a person named
Byers. The declaration was for breaking and entering the
plaintiff's house and seizing his goods. The case had been
tried before Mr. Justice Coleridge, and after the Learned
Judge had left the Court, the Jury found a verdict for the
defendant on all the counts.

Sir F. POLLOCK now moved fora Rule to show cause why
a new trial should not be had. On the verdict being returned
he had called the attention of the Officer of the Court, his
Learned Friend on the other side, and the Jury, to the mistake
the latter had committed in finding for the defendant on all
the pleas; as with respect to the plea of not guilty, which was
now become an important one as regarded the question of
costs, there was no pretence for finding a verdict for the de-
fendant. The Jury, in reply, said they intended to give a
verdict for the defendants, and would, therefore, find for them
altogether. Now, it had been admitted on the other side, that
the plea of not guilty had been pleaded merely to compel the
plaintiff to produce Certain witnesses, and that the plea could
not be sustained. The Learned Counsel proceeded at some
length to argue upon the law of the case, and submitted, in
conclusion, that he was entitled to the Rule prayed for.
COURT—You may take a Rule.

COMMON PLEAS--(THIS DAY)

COMMON PLEAS-(THIS DAY)

NORTON V. MELBOURNE.
Mr. BAYLEY applied for leave, on the part of, the plaintiff,
to discharge the Rule which he obtained on Tuesday last, tbr
sending a Commission to Dublin, to examine a witness of the
name of Mansell. Since the Rule had been obtained, circum-
stances had occurred which rendered it unnecessary that the
Commission should be sued out ; and he thought it only fair
towards the Court to mention those circumstances.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said that there was no necessity
for stating the circumstances in this more than in any other
case. The plaintiff had obtained his rule, and it was in his
option either to act upon it or to discharge it. The Court
had nothing further to do with it.—The rule was accordingly
discharged.
London, England, 1836-06-09

OYSTER FISHERIES BILL.

The House then went into Committee on the further
consideration of the report on the Oyster Fisheries Bill.
Mr. FLEMIN G made a proviso to extend the protection
given to oyster beds, from the Nth of May to the Ist of
October in each year.
After a short conversation the proviso was withdrawn ; and
Mr. MILES moved that the 10th of September be sub-
stituted for the 4th of August.
On a division there appeared—
For the amendment
Against it
Majority
The clause was then agreed to. Several other clauses
having been agreed to, and it being ten minutes past
Twelve o'clock,
Mr. BROTHERTON moved that the Chairman re-
port progress, and ask leave to sit again.
Mr. Kim' O'BRIEN seconded the motion.
Mr. WALLACE and Mr. AGLSONBY opposed the motion,
on the ground that it was a great interruption of public
business regularly to put a stop to any important measure,
because it was twelve o'clock.
Mr. BROTHERTON felt the sense of the House and
of the country was with him, as to the inexpediency of pro-
ceeding with business at a late hour of the night. He must,
therefore, persevere.
Mr. G. YOUNG, however, appealing to the Hon.
Member to let this measure, the discussion of which was
nearly over, go through the Committee,
Mr. BROTHERTON acquiesced, and withdrew his

motion.
The remaining clauses of the Bill then went through the
Committee ; the House resumed, and the Report was or-
dered to be received this day.
The other Orders of the Day were disposed of.
On the motion of Mr. WARD, a Select Committee was
appointed to inquire into the different modes in which land
has been, and is at present, disposed of in the British Co-
lonies, and in the United States of North America, with a
view to ascertain that mode which would be most beneficial
in future both to the colonies and to the mother country,
and which might be brought to bear more peculiarly upon
the present state of Ireland, as connected with the ques-
tion of Poor Laws,
Adjourned at a quarter before One o'clock.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that a short time since a rule
nisi for a writ of prohibition had been obtained against the
High Court of Admiralty, in the case of a vessel which bad
been seized in consequence of having coine into collision with
another, in the river Thames. A question arose as to the ju-
risdiction of the Court of Admiralty, and his application was
that a Doctor of Civil Law (Dr. Nichols) might be heard
against the rule.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE asked had the consent of the other
side been obtained?

Mr. RICHARDS had not previously heard of the application.
Mr. Justice LITTLIWALE-Because it is introducing here
gentlemen who have no right to practice in this Court.
The ATTORNEY- GENERAL—That is the reason why I snake
this special application.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDA LE—How can we do that without the
permission of the other side?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—The object is that the Court
may have the benefit of a civilian's experience and knowledge
of the law in arguing the grave question of the jurisdiction of
the Admiralty Court. The case is of some importance, as the
vessel has been seized and detained.

Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE—I should feel some difficulty in
consenting to such an application. I recollect, in Lord

DUEL.

A duel has lately taken place at
by which Ensign Daviesreeeived.V.s death, and Lieutenants
Joy, Morland, and Powys have • Rengalore, East Indies,
;ince been convicted of man-
slaughter, the two former b(Ar,g sentenced to twelve months'
imprisonment in the coming gaol at Madras, and the latter
to six month. Ensign,
throughout the whole -Davies, it appeared, had acted
'of the Portuguese war, and having
proceeded to Mr.. 'l-Joy's house after Mr. Powys, of his
corps, Mr- JOY,. jr. the course of conversation, bantered Mr.
Davies to so neat an extent as to the nature of his services
in Portu.gal, that it drew forth angry retorts, ending is the
aPPlica%lo`l, by Mr. Davies, of the epithets " liar," and
" birdr_guard," his being collared by Mr. Joy, and terming
I.atter " a coward." On the following morning Mr.
.fr.,y left his house, with pistols, attended by Mr. Powys, who
asked Mr. Davis whether he was prepared to give Mr. Joy
satisfaction for his language on the previous night ? The
reply was," Certainly," but recollecting that be had no friend,
Mr. Powys consented to act for him, and Mr. Joy applied
to Lieut. Morland to act on his behalf, which he refused at
first, but afterwards consented to. While in the field, Mr.
Powys told Mr. Davies that he ought to apologise for the ex-
pressions he had used: which he expressed his willingness to
do,but observed thatMr.Joy must equally apologise for having
collared him. The reply of Mr. Joy was to the effect that
that was no place for apologies. The signal agreed on was
the dropping of a glove ;. previously to which being given,
Mr. Jay was, under an erroneous impression, raising Ms
pistol, but was arrested by Lieutenant Moorland, exclaim
ing " Not yet, Joy." On the signal being really given, En-
sign. Davies immediately discharged his pistol at random
Mr. Joy's followed, and the ball passed through his oppo-
nent's head, enterng the right side at the rim of his cap.
and coming out at the left, provincr by the very nature of
the wound, that he could scarely'have even looked at his
adversary on•firing at him. Lieut. Powys remained sup-
porting the ,deceased, while. Lieut. Morland gallappd in
search of medical assistance. At the trial great stress was
:aid on Mr. Joy raising his pistol before the signal cc-,is given,
supportingas the malice prepense, and the taking, a delibe-
rate aim ; but, by the evidence, it did not appe..tr that the
airalr play. Lieuteuatit—avirlanu-3
tepee has been remitted, but the imprisonment of the others
was ordered to commence on their arrival at the gaol._

ATHENS, FEB. 28.—His Majesty, the King of Bavaria,
returned on the 22d from his tour. While our King was
only at Milos and Syra, King Louis, on hoard the Incom-
parable steam-boat, notwithstanding the very bad twather,
visited almost all the more considerable islands—such as
Milos, Thera. Naxas, Paras, Jenas, and Syra. From the
Cyclades he went to Hydia and Spezzia, then landed at
Napoli—travelled by land through Argolis, proceeding by
way of Argos, Mycene, Nemia and Corinth. His Ma-
jesty was received every where in the islands, in or near the
Continent, with the greatest respect and eothusiasm, and is
said to be highly pleased with his tour.
ATHENS, FEB. 29.—We have been for these fivo days in
a 'Ministerial crisis. Mausoles was spoken of for the iote-
rior, Contesticotes for the Finances, Kriezes for the Navy,
General Gordon for the War Department, Rhizos, (in ad-
dition to Foreign Affairs) for Justice ; and the editor of the
&tier for ecclesiastical Affairs and Public Instruction.
Thanks to ow- beloved King, the combination has not been
wholly accomplished. The present state of the Ministry is
Mausoles (an honourable man, though not long in the pub-
lic service), Minister of the Interior ; Kriezis (likewise an
honest man, the most confidential friend and valiant com-
rade of the late Miaules), Minister of Marine ad interim ;
Lassanis, Finance ; and Rhizos, besides his two other Mi-
nisterial departments, has taken ad interim that of Justice.
Happily the accounts from Acarnania are much more
favourable.
