[Further Particulars.]

Since the alarming absence of this mOst unfort.,
tunate and much-pitied young Lady from her
home, we have altogether forborne, from, we
trust, proper motives of delicacy, taking notice of,
or offering any remarks on this distressing case,
whilst it remained in suspended douLt, momen-
tarily expecting to have it in our power to appease
the universal anxiety of the public, and, satisfied
that the exertions and incitements of her friends
and their kind assistants, for lien discovery, ren-
dered no in•erfer.nce en our part necessary ; not
will our readers require us., at the present time,
to introduce a recapitulation of the circumstances
attendiag her sudden departure.
We can no'x most assuredly declare, that she
is no more I—she was found yesterday morning
the hapless tenant of a watery grave ! The river
Irwell, as 'seemed to be the previous prevail'ng
opinion, contained her remains. On
morning the fr.;st began to give way, and on
Sunday the ice on the surface of the river broke
up, fortunately with a moderate rise of the water,
or much damage must. have ensued to the mime-
rows weirs, hut the shoals of ice floated down
with nothing of the impetuosity th,r. was feared.
It was. on a sand bank, ,tear Mode Wheel, about
three wiles down the Irwell, and oue on this side
Barton, that her hotly wits found, environed by
two l,icces of ice. Mr. GoODIER, of Eccles,
whose mill is on the stream contiguous to the spot,
was the first to observe her, which was about nine.
o'clock on Monday morning.
No time was lost in conveying the intelligence to
Manchester; when Mr. NADIN, Deputy Constable,
accompanied by a few of her friends, some mem-
bers of the faculty, and whets, immediately set out
to survey the body as it lay, and caused its removal
to to.,vn. The corpse wits wrought this afternoon
in a hearse, and though it has been missing front
the Ifith of last December, scarce any symptoms
of decay have appeared, owing to the preserv!ng
qualities of the frost ; and we are told it even yet
pretsents a lovely spectacle of inanimation. Every
usual and necessary step has been taken previous
to the holding- of an inquest, and at nine o'clock
this morning, the Coroner (NATHANIEL MILNE,
Esq.) and a Jury, will enter into the investiga-
tion, the substance of which we shall take every
pains to collect, and insert ,in our next.--(illatt-
ellester Mercury.)

If an additional instance were wanting to corn.
plete the monstrous character of BuoIsAvARTE, it
would be found in the following fact :----In every
movement of his army in their advance upon Mos-
cow, he gave the most positive order for ail the
Russian male children to be taken from their af-
flicted parents, and carried, under proper two; t.s,
into Prance ; and to such an extent was that sa-
vage order fulfilled, that not less than 20,000 of
these young victims were thus pillaged from their
own country, the monster remarking„ " That.
they were young enough soon to forget their
conntry, with their lathers and mothers, and to
become, in due time, good f(enclanen!"
On Thursday a trilling w,r aer was shot for at
.
the Regent Gardens, Cheltenham, by an inhabitant,
who had engaged to strike 20 pieces of wood, three
inches square, thrown distinctly up, at the distance
of twenty yards, with as many shots as shoh!,,i,
the average, amount to 28 in each, making an
aggregate of 5 GO. Also to strike the 52ane num-
ber of penny-pieces, thrown up .at 10 yards dis-
tance, with the average of 5 shot-marks on each,
making at the 20 an aggregate of 00. The slrots
at the wood were greatly excee,led at 10 firings,
and at the penny-pieces at 7 winning both at 17
shots, -without a miss. _

LAW REPOIrf.

'COURT OF CHANCERY, Frs. O.

AGAR V. TITE RE-GENT's CANAL CoMPANY.
'The plaintiff, Win. Agar, Esq. had tiled a till
of Injniiction for restraining the defendants front
cutting through some gardens, plantatiois and
yards, belonging to. his estate, situated between
'Gray's Inn-lane and Kentish Tow», in 'the coarse
of .completing the' line of the defendants canal
and the-Injunction upon filing the Bill having been
,granted, a motion for dissolving the Injunction
was this clay made, and argued at very great
3ength.
Mr. LIAR?, Mr. LEACH-, and Mr. WETHF.U.ALL.,
-nrgued in support of the motion for dissolving the
Injunction, and the point turned' upon the con-
struction of the 11th and 12th sections of the
clause in the. Act of Parliament, by which the
defendants were•prohibited (ruin cutting through
any gardens, yards, or plantations, belonging to
.any house, used as such at and prior to January,r•
1811. In October, 1810, Mr. Agar acquired
right to the estate in question, corsisting of about
.70 acres of Gray's-inn grounds, on ulich there
were the remains of a house, but which had not
I)ceii occupied for the last 40 years ; part of the
ground marked out by the defendants, for the line
of their canal consisted of the yard to this house,
which Mr. Agar now employed as a rick-yord for
his hay, having, immediately after the estate came
into- his possession, laid the same out in plant-a-
tions, pleasure-grounds, gardens, &c. to which,
in June, 1811, he added a handsome house, called
Elm Lodge. The yard and other grounds in
question, to the extent of about E37T; acres-, which
the defendants crisped to appropriate to the pur- ,
poses of their work, under the Act of Parliament, 1

the Learned Counsel contended did not come
Avithin the exceptions in the two sections in the
Act, not bring yards, gardens, or planted avenues
belonging to a house, there being tio house On
the plaintiff's estate in. January, 1811, the time
specified in the Act of Parliament.
INfr. IncuAßDs was heard on the part of the
plaintiff, who contended that the words did irot.
fnean a house then in existence, but were in-
tended to protect all such yards, gardens, tic. as
bad belonged to lactlises, even supposing they had.
fallen to decay; as they might be re-built. Here
it was in evidence, that all Mr. Agar's grounds
had been laid out, planted, &c. previous to Ja-

tmary, 181/, and. long previous to his having any
intimation :of the line of the cut proposed by the
defendants for their canal.

lhe Lamp CIIANCELLOk said, he should hear the
Counsel for the plaintiff fully to-morrow; and as it
Was a question'of public importance that the ope-
i'aions of th,;.Company shorld- not L-e unneces-
tardy put a stop his Lordship should read all
the affidavits, in order that he might be prepared
to dispose of the case to-morrow. HiS Lordship
agreed that these Canal Acts were in general very
grievous infringements upon the private rights of
parties, and therefore that the restrictions upon
them ought to be strictly interpreted. He threw
it out to the Counsel for the plaintiff, however,
in arguing this ,Case, to consider whether, if the
Company could have no other line without going
through Mr. Agar's lands, and must now stop

- i
. .
__
their operations, it would not have been proper
that the objection bad been started previous' to
their beginning to open the cut, rather than after
they had cut all the wayfromPaddington to Cam..
den Town.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.

WOOTTON-BASSET.

Mr. Setjeant PELL shewed cause against a Thule
obtained o❑ a former day by Mr:Abbott, for a
Quo Warranto, calling upon a gentleman of the
name of Smith, to skew by what authority he
held, the office of a free burgess of the borough of
IVootton-Basset. The groMnd on which the Rule
Nisi had been conceded, • was that there was no
vacancy to be supplied by Mr. Smith, and that
the Corporation was full previous to his election.
The fact was stated to he thus':—A Meeting of the
Corporat ion was called for. filling up various offices,
and it waS supposed that a Mr. Starkey would resign
the ottlce of Capital Burgess, and consequently that
Isis place must be supplied. It appeared, however,
at the meeting, that there was no vacancy, but-not
until after the election of Mr. Smith had•been com-
pleter!. In reply to this statement, Mr. Serjeant
PELL produced several affidavits,- by which it ap-.
pearcd, that although it was true: that there was
no vacancy in consequence of the resignation of
Mr. Starkey, yet that a Mr." Kibblewhite .had
accepted the office. of Alderman an that day,
and consequently that there was a vacancy
that Mr. Smith had supplied. • The Learn-
ed Counsel admitted, that the -intention of the
'fleeting was merely to fill up the office which Mr.
Starkey had left, but ahotber vacating instead, he
thoirght it could make no difference in the merits
• of- this question, whether 'Mr: Smith succeeded
Mr. Starkey or Mr. Kibblewhite. •

Mr. BAILEY followed on the same side, and re-
ferred to some former proceedings' instituted by
the same, relator, Mr. Gordon, .-:against other
members of the Corporation, where he had failed,
and,. as in the present case, stood alone,aphist
111. r. Smith and the Borough. He likewise ar.gued
that Mr. Gordon must be impliedly understood
to have given his assent to this election, inas-
much as he was present without-ohjectin! to it;
and in a previous case, that of a Mr. Attersol,
hail confirmed a proceeding that was at least
•equaliy, jrregular.

Mr.. jnstice aimPirt-1-lis being present does
not:skew that he concurred, w supposing lie did
then- concur, he is not irrevocably bound by it.
The Court, without hearing Mr. Abbott, was of
inion, that sufficient ground had been laid for
a Rule to slew cause.
