WORCESTERSHIRE SOCIETY.—
ehave SCHIOHI
•
attended on a more gratifying occasion than yesterday, at the
Tenth Anniversary of this benevolent Society, at the Albion •
Tavern, Aldersg•iite.street. The purpose of this Institotion is
to raise a fund by donations and annual subscriptions for ap-
prenticing soni of respectable persons, natives of the country,
•
and afterwards for assisting them in business. The Chair was
taken by the Earl of PLYDIOUT/S, supported by Lord -Beau-
champ, Lord Deerhurst, Colonel Lygon, Colonel Davies, Sir
Charles CotterelL The cross-table was filled by other respect-
able characters, and a, large company occupied the others.—
The Chairman, Lord Deerhurst,
:Lord Beauchainp, and the
other distinguished Members severally addressed the Company
in support of the Institution, .ond iri 'return for having their
healths given from the'Cliair: Lord Deerhurst, in particular,
having apologiseti for the absence of the. Earl of Coventry,
Patron of the Society, declared that though his noble father was
absent in person, his heart was with them, and he was at all
times anxious to support the purposes of the Meeting, and to
promote the interests of the County. The Noble Chairman,
and the other,higher visitors, bore testimony to the 'zeal with
which the Coventry'FaMily had on all occasions supported what•
ever tended to promote benevolence and the honour and advantage
of Worcestershie. " Non Nobis Dornine" was sung imme-
diately after dinner, by Messrs. Smith (formerly of Drury-lane
Theatre), Jolly, Tinney, bit. and soon after twenty-six of.the
Boys who.had been provided for, passed round the Company.
The steady looks of some, the arch countenance of others, and the
healthy. appearance of the whole, formed a very interesting sight.
They were all well treated below stairs.' The Kirig, the Duke of
York, the Duke of Clarence, therrert Of the Royal -Family, and
many other-loyal and constitutional toasts, were given and re-
ceived with the warmest apPlause. The Hon. Thomas Coventry,
as one of the warm supporters of the Society, was given, and
that Gentleman returned thinks; testifying his zeal for the inte-
rests of the Institution.... The Ladies of the Coventry. Family
followed, and drew a neat and lively speech from Lord'Deer-
hum- The dinner and lines were excellent,. and the Meeting
passed off with the utmost ertliiceneci •by tongi arid
duets from thri vocal. performers above noticed, and -soma di-

THE KING.

Wrsosoa, MAY 39.—Yesterday and this day his MAJTSTY.
has taken en airing in his pony phaeton fox. upwards of two
hours in. the Great Park, attended by the Lord Steward and the
Earl Mount Charles. His Majesty's distinguished visitors are
expected to arrive this evening at the Royal Lodge. His Royal
highness the Duke of York will arrive this evening at Frog-
more Lodge to dinner.

THE FRENCH CORONATION.

NISMES, MAY 9.7.—The Klxa is arrived here,
and will to-morrow make his entry into Rheims. His Ma-

jesty was preeded by the Duke of Angoulenae, the Duke of

Orleans, and the different members of the Royal Family. He

passed *through Soissons, which presented ' a very gay ap-
pearance, the houses 'being covered with branches of trees mixed

with flowers, and an abundatice of white flags waving from the
windows. The triumphal arch was very pretty, 'and bore the

following inscription :

" Le Itoi, heureux Pere par la gloire
De son fits et par l'amour de her sujets."
At this place also there is an arch, bearing the following:
" Charles X. pour long tems, et les Bourbons pour toujours."
The Duchess of Angouletne went to mass this morning• at

Soissons. After the mass, the Mayor, who is a man of some
note, ()Tared his hand to the Duchess, who declined to accept
it, and touk the hand of the principal Administrator of the
Church—an honorary office, but one, it seems, -which entitles
him to the distinction bestowed. As the Duchess performed
the act rather ungraciously, it vexed the Mayor much, and en-
tirely disturbed the harmony of his,arrangements.

The Duke of Northumberland is expected every moment. It
is said that he has ordered between 70 and BO horses. The Rus-

sian Ambassador had only 20 horses, the Spanish Atnbassdor
only B—consequently, on the road, the English Ambassador is
thought superior to the others, for the rank and distinction of a
man seem to be measured by the scale of expenCe at which he
travels.

As a mire ceremony, 'certainly the Sacre, of Charles X. will
be very inferior to the Coronation of George IV., particularly
in the processional part ; for in England there were Peers
,and
Peeresses splendidly dressed, and here there will be very few
Peers, and those with dressca very inferior
.to the English. It,
would, howcvcr, be difficult to perauade the French that any
thing half so fine as the Sacre of Charles X. ever took place in
any part of Europe.

COURT -OF APPEALS.

HOUSE OF LORDS, SAT t 7 RDAY, JULY L.
BUTTON v.,pailnisicTow.
The circumstances of this case, which has been 15 years in
Chancery. rife as follow :
Lady Pulteney died in 1773, devising certain estates to her
husband, Sir Wm. Pulteney, and her daughter, (afterwards
Countess of Bath), for life, with remainder to the issue of either
of them ; but in default of such issue, to the use of Sir Richard
Sutton and his heirs for ever. The Countess of Bath subsequently
mariied Sir James Murray, and in the marriage-settlement she
agreed" that a copyhold estate holden of the manor of Stoke
Newington, in the county of Alidleaex (which estate she did
not derive from. her mother), should be limited, in default of
appointment, to go according to the limitations contained in the
will of her mother." This estate and agreement are the subject
in question. Lady Bath died in 1808, leaving no issue, and in
her will she recited the marriage articles, but made no ap-
pointment of the said copyhold premise,. After her death, the
respondent, the Earl of Darlington, took possession of the
above estate, as heir at. law, and the appellant claimed a right to
it, under the limitation of the marriage-articles; he filed a bill
in Chancery in 1810, and in 1817 it was finally heard before
the Master of the Rolls, who decreed that the appellant's bill
should be dismissed ; from this decree an appeal . was made to
the lions:: of Lords.
'l'he Loan CHANCELLOR, after going through the circum-
stances as here detailed, said, that the principal question was,
whether Sir Richard Sutton came under the consideration of
the marriage-settleMent, anti thereby was entitled to an
equitable estate, and bad a right to call on the heir-at-law
to divest himself' of a legal estate, or whether the settlement was
such as it had been contended, that other persons had contracted,
for Sir Richard, and that he could call on these contractors—to
wit, the trustees to the marriage-settlement—to carry the trusts
into execution, and have the estate conveyed to him.. He (the
Lord Chancellor) confessed that he never met a case that in-
volved more difficulty. It was argued, on the part of the respon-
• dents, that the appellant vats a stranger to the articles, and not
entitled to consideration of blood or otherwise, to canon a court
of equity to have these articles performed to his benefit. This was
going to say that it was not the intention of Lady Bath that the
• `state should go as expressed in the settlement. There could
be no doubt, that when the settlement was made Lady Bath
tiid not contemplate dying without issue; but the question en-
tirely hinged on this-whether any persons had contracted on
behalf of Sir Richard. The affirmative was not obvious : he
ahould therefore, move, that the decree be affirmed, not so much
from a conviction of its rectitude as from the doubts he enter-
tained of the equity of coming to an opposite conclusion.—'ihe
decree was accordingly affirmed.

Tlll,, MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 4.
The arrivals of English Grain last week were moderate, but i
there was another large quantity of Oats from Ireland. This I
morning there was a good many samples or Wheat from Essex
and Kent, but very little from other parts; of all other sorts or 1
Grain, the supply fresh up is small ; prime samples of
Wheats are scarce, and there is no difficulty in obtaining last
week's terms for such ; all other kinds, however, are so • very
dull in sale that factors are willing to take less prices
for the sake of quitting. Barley remains unaltered from
the terms- of this day se'nnight. The report of the
coming crop of Beans and Pease being unfavourable, both
these articles obtain rather more money. Good sweet English

[MORNING CIIRONICLE.I
ThOugh Mr. Stuart Wortley, the Mirror of
the CountrY Gentlernen, is the only individual
who has ventured to offer any thing ap-
proaching to an argument in defence of Spring
Guns, the Bill decldratory of the illegality of
these murderous contrivances, was thrown out
on Thursday by a majority of One ! and thus
our 'Squires have the satisfaction of carrying
down with them to their estates the reputed
right of shooting trespassers by machinery for
some months to come. The loss of the Bill by
such a majority furnishes another example of
the neglect with which the Members too often
treat questions that neither effect their private
interests nor allow of oratorical display. The
majority of the House is, we are persuaded,
adverse to the practice under consideration, but
as its injustice and inhumanity are so obvious as
give no room for ingenuity in the exposure of
them, and as its consequences are not likely to
affect the purses or persons of the Gentlemen of
the House, the measure to repress it was regard-
ed with indifference, and suffered to fall to
the ground without a struggle on the part of
the professed champions of justice and huma-
nity. We have repeatedly remarked a similar in-
difference respecting questions which, though of
great public importance, did not permit of
display ; the vices of the Vagrant Laws for
example, having been fully exposed by the Press;
the orators of the House did not like to follow
in a beaten path, and the Amended Act never
u►.derwent that scrutiny which it required. We
could mention many other instances, but the loss
of the Spring Gun Bill is the freshest, and
not the least striking example of this sort of
neglect. Mr. Stuart Wortley, as we have be-
fore observed, is the only person who has pre-
sented the shadow of an argument in favour of
these engines, and it must be confessed that his
defence of them on the score of their pacific
tendency is sufficiently whimsical. One of the
main benefits of the use of spring guns, says this
great 'Squire, is, that they not only act as a great
discouragement to poaching, but tend to prevent
the dreadful evils which result from frays and
fights between bodies of game-keepers and
poachers—That is to say, the fighting with the
spring guns is all on one side ; the misfortune,
however, is, that spring guns being, like Country
Gentlemen, by no means famous for discretion,
they generally shoot the wrong persons ; and
supposing they do now and then shoot a poacher,
we must express a doubt whether shooting a man
is the most eligible method of preventing a fray.
We can approve, of spring guns only when they
act as ministers of justice, and shoot those that
set them.

Extracts from the Mornms Papers, Alas 9,18 A Si

[THE TIMES.] •
Mr. Manning's reply to Mr. Grenfell on Friday
last, when the latter Gentleman hinted at the
propriety of a Parliamentary investigation--46t0
the amount of paper issues by the Bank, may,. •
we suppose, be left to its own fate, without •
much trouble on the part of the public press to
point out its injustice and absurdity. " Why,'
says Mr. Manning, " should the books of the f
Bank of England be more liable to exposure than
those of any private bank ?" We will tell him in
one word why,—because the Bank of England is,
and has been for many years, to its own immense
advantage, the legal depository of a large shard
of national property—the comptroller of ex- •
changes—and the arbiter of prices ; and that the;
State has no security against the abuse of its
powers by the Bank, and consequently against
incalculable public mischief arising out of the
misconduct of that establishment, but by a full
knowledge of all its pecuniary concerns. If the.
Bank Directors be not yet responsible nor amena-
ble to any superintendence, it is high time that
they should be so : the Treasury itself has as •.
good a title to the secrecy enjoyed by a private
house of commerce as has the Bank of England :-
even private bankers, we agree with others in
affirming, wield such a power as ought to- be
closely watched ; but that the Bank of England,
so nursed, and pampered, and tempted as it is
to go wrong by the amazing opportunities, pro-
vided for it—that such a chartered monopolist ;.
should plead exemption from inquiry, on the •
score of that forbearance which is exercised to-
wards individuals not possessing, like itself, the
means of ruining the country, is, we must de-
clare, the most monstrous paradox that ever blind
selfishness ‘$ as heard to utter.

TILE WEATHER,

LICTRACT from a METEOROLOGICAL JOURNAL. •for
APRIL, 1825, kept at
.the OBSERVATORY of, the ROYAL
Hants ACADEMY, Gosroni, Hat i:— • .
. _ _ •

The
firstninetvPn _clays of this. month no rain
fell here ; the hitter part was generally wet, excepting the 25th.
and 29th...Froin the I3th of March to the 20th instant, that is
,thirty.:eight days we had only eighteen-Inndredths of an inch
of rain, which fell on the 25th of March.
_This was the driest
period observed here since the beginning of is year 1821. It
may he seem by the summary of the weather that there have
been twenty-three remarkably fine days this month, which for
April is an' unusual occurrence. • The winds too have been ge-
nerally light, and tolerably equal in duration from the eightdi-
visions of the compass. From their quick variations, the baro-
inat,2r spewed thirty-one changes in the thirty days; but the ag-
gregate of the spaces described by the• fluctuation of the quick-
silver, is comparatively small for April. The mean temperature
of this mimth is four and a half degrees higher than that of
AP;11, 182-i, and two arid a half degrees higher than the mean
of that montlVfor a series of years ; and from the dryness of the
air and uninterrupted sunshine, spring water came to its mini-
mum temperature a fortnight before the usual time:
Since the mild showers of rain set in, both the young wheats
and the grass lands hive been much benefited, and now they
have a fine verdant appearance. Vegetation is very forward
for the season, as no injurious- frosts have happened this month,
the coldest night being on the first, when the thermometer sank
Within two degrees of the freezing point.
The awallowsmade their first appearance here on the morn-
ing of the 13th. For some years past but few swallows have
returned to this neighbourhood in .the spring, notwithstanding
the great numbers that have migrated at the close of .the sum-
mer months.
The atmospheric and 'meteoric phenomena that have come
within our observation this month, are one paracclence, two
solar and two lunar halos, four meteors, and two gales of wind
from the south-west.
