LORD ANSON V. HODGES •

Immediately upon his Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR
taking his seat, which did not take place till after one
o'clock, the arguments in this part-heard tithe cause were
returned. The case is one of great bulk and importance
to the parties, and appears likely to occupy the Court
for several days ; but, as is generally the case with tithe
causes, the facts are extremely dry and totally uninterest-
ing to the public.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

The Court were occupied the who'e of the morning in
trying the case of " Scarth v. Gardiner," which was an
action of libel brought by a solicitor against a magistrate
of the county of Berks. It is suspected that the case will
last all day.

insurgents, and that an insurrection had broken out in the
