[MORNING CHRONICLE.]

The Consols for the settlement on the 18th of
January, 1825, were extremely steady yesterday
in their value. They opened at 9.5 H, and closed
at the same price. It is generally understood
that the' speech of his Most Christian Majesty to
the Chambers, on the 29. d current, will be both
pacific and satisfactory. On the Poreign Stock
Exchange It was reported, in the morning, that
the Patriots l►ad gained considerable advantages
over the Itoy►►lists in Peru, and Mexican Bonds
in couseqtience advanced from 66-} to 671. They
however closed at 67/4 from whicl► it may be in-
ferred. that implicit reliance w,u►s Opt plat e 4 in
the intelligence received at Liverpool by the
packet ship the Canada from New York. In the
Prices of other descriptions of South American

Sectirities, no material alteration can be noted
since Wednesday. Austrian Bonds are a shade
dearer. In Greek Bonds there is considerable
speculation, and they are one half per cent.
higher. French !Uites have again reached 1024 f.,
and the Scrip of the last Loan is steady at a pre-
mium of about 14 per cent. In Northern Secu-
rities no material alteration can be noted.

[Ncw TIMES.]
The Funds experienced little alteration yes-
terday, as there were no expresses from Paris.
Consols were 95/ for the Account. The intro-
duction of the . Brazilian Mining Company's
Shares into the Stock Exchange created no little
sensation yesterday. Report bad spoken fa-
vourably of this plan, and the Shares had ob-
tained a high premium, when a call of five
pounds per share (not mentioned in the pro.
spectus), in addition to an immediate instal-
ment to the like amount, was, unexpectedly
it is stated by the intended proprietors, de-
manded previously to their becoming inte-
rested in the concerns. This plan, although
similar to that of the Colombian Company,
was not contemplated, and in consequence the
Shares were at one time at 2 per cent. discount;
but upon its being stated that the managers of the
Company would receive back the shares of thoge
parties who diSapproved of the proposed terms,
the shares rose to par. The shares in the Foreign
Gas Light Company were in a similar predica-
ment, by an unexpected charge of 31. per share
for expellees incurred : these shares were on the
preceding day sold at 6 per cent. premium ; at
the close of the btiSiness they were 14 per cent.
premium. Colombian and Buenos Ayres Mining
shares experienced no variation in their former
prices. The intelligence from South America,
by the New York Packet, produced little effect
in Mexican Bonds, which closed at their opening
price. The French Rentes maintained 102 f.
50c. and the Scrip 14 premium. In the other
Securities there was no alteration deserving
notice.

[nmsu raEss.]
The Report of the Tithe Committee of the
parish of St. Botolph, Aldgate, appears to us of
so much importance to the inhabitants of the city
who are subject to the oppressive construction of
the 37th of Ihury VIII. that we have thought
proper to insert it in our Paper. None are
less disposed than we to invade any . just or
lawful right of property on any pretence what-
soever. IVe with not to see the Impropriator,
Whether Lay or Clerical, defrauded of one penny
of his rightful, income. The foundation of his title
is as good as, (hat of any proprietor in the kingdom.
It rests on the law of the land ; but beyond what
the law of .the land entitles him to demand, he
ought to be resisted as strenuously and resolutely
as any other. unlawful claimant. With respect
to the' tithe question in St. Botolph's, it appears
that Withiq a few years the lay impropriator has
faised his demands on the parishioners tenfold.
In 1805 'he redeemed the land-tax on his tithes
at (lie rate of 3501. per annum, and he now en-
deavours to exact nearly 5,000/. in the London
diviston alone. 'MS ancestor, who purchased the
iropropriation, and right of advowson together fur
11,4101. offered to sell theta to the parish fur a
perpetual annuity of 50Q guineas. At that time the
amount of tithes collected in both divisions was
is than '6001., and for many years it did not,
exceed that sum. That do we infer from these
Nets ? That none of the predecessors of
the present irripropriator (with the excep-
tion, perhaps, of his father, who, we be-
lieve, made some increase In his demands in
1804) supposed that they had any colour of right
by law to exact one farthing more than they re-
ceived. Men are generally sharp-sighted enough
in matters relating to their revenue. Downwards
from Kiug James the First to the year 180-4, as
space including two centuries, none of the lay
impropriators pretended that the statute of
Henry VIII. was valid. At the period of the
Revolution, some or the. ClergY pUblicly lamented
that the non-enrolment.of the decree had deprived
them of its ad vantages. Confessed ly and notoriously
no right existed, on the part of the tithe. owners,
to compel the payments fixed by the decree.
The fact of non-enrolment has, however, been
pleaded' by the parishioners in the suit now pend-
ing, and the question will, therefore, be settled
by authority. The conduct of Mr. Kynaston
towards the parishioners has been harsh and re-
pulsive. He has rejected all overtures for an
amicable adjustment, and insists upon exacting
all that the strict letter of the law will warrant
him in enforcing. This
.course has been always
successful hitherto.with individuals. Each one
judged it a less evil to submit to the growing
demands of the impropriator, than to incur the
ruinous expense of an equity suit ; but now the
parishioners are firmly uniteds and we have no
doubt that they will be, as they- ought to be,
successful. if they fail in Court, which we do
not expect, we would counsel. them to appeal in
Parliament, and they will hive relief.

[THE PUBLIC t,EnnEtt.)
The Paris 'papers which arrived yesterday,
keep up the controversy respecting the evacua-
tion of Spain by the French. All the Opposition
Journals maintain that the matter is not yet
finally settled ; whilst the Eloile, which claims
superiority of intelligence on account of its
connection with the Ministers, continues to
support the opposite opinion. The mean time,
the Moniteur observes a strict neutrality be-
tween the disputants ; though, a few days
sincp, it spoke in, the sense of the
Those Papers, however, which pretend that
the original arrangements have been modi-
fied at the solicitation of the Spanish Govern-
ment, admit that this favour was the price of
concessions offered on its part. Should these as.
SUraliCeS prove. Correct, which the Mode denies,
yet they would acquit the French Government
of vacillation, as it threatened in the first in.
stance to Withdraw its troops only In case of
Ferdinand refusing to comply with its demands.
That, an attempt has heen made to delay the
evacuation is probable ; but whether it will
succeed is matter of great doubt. It would
even seem that negociations are at this mo-
ment pending on the subject, in which probably

all the Great Powers take a part ; which woul►l
account for the uncertainty in ,which the question
is still involved, and explain the silence of the
French Cabinet. \%e have here, perhaps; a
clue to the frequent Cabinet Meetings that have
been recently held in this country ; but, be this as
it may, France seems to urge in a peremptory
manner, compliance with her demands; and there-
fore the Spanish Monarch is left only thealternative
of complying, or of being abandoned to the rage of
the Constitutionalists. In either case it is almost
certain that sound principles would finally
triumph ; for, should Ferdina►dl yield, it would
be a victory over his bad passions ; and, if he
prove refractory, he will, sooner or later, become
the victim of his tyrannical propensities.

[MORNING POST.]
It is an abuse -of terms, for the Cath(Ale Asso-
ciation to pretend that civil liberty in any shape,
or under any circumstances, is the object
of its proceedings. —ln this respect the
Irish rebels of 1798 were demi-gods, com-
pared with the Popish incendiaries of the present
day. It should never be lost sight of by
those who would justly understand the history of
Ireland, during the latter part of the last cen-
tury, and during the current quarter of this
century, that the principles and views of the
leading characters in the two periods have been
diametrically opposite. Up to the passing of the
Act of Union, the Roman Catholics were, as
they deserved to be, blind passive instruments in
the hands of bold enthusiasts in the cause of free-
dom, who, however mistaken their purpose,
were sincere friends of civil and religious to-
leration ; and even in their efforts at revo.
lutiop, dreaded nothing so much as the super-
stitious ignorance of the Popish multitude, and
the treacherous intrigues of the Popish Clergy.
Nay, it is a fact on record, that the insurrection
of 1798 would have been a thousand times more
formidable, if the Presbyterians of Ulster and
such of the Protestants in the other part of
the country as at first fell within its vortex,
had not become terrified and disgusted with
the stupid, savage, and blood-thirsty bigotry
of the Papists. Since the Union every thing
like disaffection (with a single melancholy excep-
tion) has accordingly been confined to the Irish
Roman Catholics; and until now, that their
Priests have partially emitted before the
Public the vulgar, viperous rancour concen-
trated in their hearts, those sleek and snakish
knaves have been the secret instigators aml
abettors of the several rebellions irruptions that
have appeared in the Sister Country. Hence

tholic Association, Let us grant, for argument
sake, that one of the evident objects of that

TIIE KING AND TILE FINE ARTS.-OUE gra-
cipus Sotereigtys patronage of the Fine Arts, and his mu-
nificent liberality to various professors of them, are generally
known and appreciated. The purchase of a picture left by
the late Mr. liwss, ' for no less a sum than 1,500/. was a
splendid instance of the Royal benevolence, and we venture
to relate a more recent one. While Earl Whitworth was
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, the Duchess of' Dorset re-
quested his Majesty (then Prince Regent) would graciously
favour her with his portrait, which the King acceded to, and
Mr. Owen (the artist) was summoned to Carlton House; hut it
being inconvenient for the King at that time to sit for his pie-
ture, a capital one, by Sir Wm. Beechey, we believe, was given
to Mr. Owen, with directions to copy it carefully. Mr. Owen
immediately set another artist about the preparatory part of it,
and had already paid him 401. or 501. on account, when the
Duchess qf Dorset arrived in town from Ireland, and called to see
what progress was made in the portrait. On learning that it
was to be only a copy, her Grace declined it altogether,
and the picture remained upon Mr. Owen's hands. For
sonic time past Owen has been incapable of following his
profession from severe illness: his finances have in conse-
quence been much reduced. Speaking one day lately to
a friend on the subject, he mentioned his loss by the plc-
ture above alluded to. "Ts the King aware of it ?" asked
'his friend. " No," said Owen; "it was never finished."—
" No matter; contrive to inform his Majesty of the dream-
stance, and rely upon it you will be remunerated." Owen
followed his friend's advice, and respectfully acquainted
the King by letter of the particulars we have just detailed.—
On the next day but one he received a reply from Sir William
Knighton, by command of his Majesty, expressive of the King's
regret at having forgotten the matter, and at the distress of Mr.
Owen, desiring that the picture might be sent in its present
state to Carlton House, pnd inclosing a cheque for 200 guineas

ANTI4TJITIES.-4n the course of last week, as
some labourers, iu the employ of F. E. Morrice,
Esq. were trenching land for planting in the
neighbourhood of Besthanger, they dug HP
a large urn filled with ashes, and the remains
of burnt boner; and on another spot, above
a quarter of a mile distant, two smaller urns
of the same description placed
side by side,
and not above eighteen inches below the sur-
face of the ground. One of the smaller ones
only was preserved entire ; the larger, which
we first discovered,
having been unfortunately
much broken by the men. The fragments, and
a great part of its contents, were,
however, after-
wards collected. Avery large quantity of ashes,
and the remains of bones, had previously
been
dug up nearly half a mile off iii another direc-
tiou.—(Kent Gazette.)

The Greek women of the Crimea are perhaps
the most induArious housewives upon earth, and
entirely the slaves of the family. Their cookery
is simple and wholesome. They have no desire
to go abroad ; if the employments of the house
permit of their sitting down for a short time, they
begin to spin or wind cotton. The men ure for
the most part absorbed in mercenary speculations,
but the women are gentle, humane, obliging, and
deserving of the highest praise.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, DEc. 9.
WILLOUGHBY V. EARL GROSVENOR.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL made a motion to dissolve the
injunction which was granted a short time since to restrain the
noble defendant from entering up judgment on a warrant of
attorney, which had been given by the plaintiff by way of se-
curity for the occupation of the Royal Hotel, Chester. The
plaintiff having made' his fame as a good tavern-keeper at
Highbury-barn, and being duly recommended to the Noble
Earl, was let into possession in December, 1819. The agent of
Lord Grosvenor, a Mr. Crossby, was charged in the bill of in-
junction with making wrong and ungrounded representations
as to the posting and other branches of the business of the inn,
by which expectations were raised in the plaintiff's mind,which
induced him to close the bargain with more eagerness and upon
different terms from those to which he would otherwise have
acceded. All.these allegations were very positively denied by
the several parties concerned. At the end of a year, Mr. Wil-
loughby found hiniwlf incapable of making good the first in.
stalment of the money due upon the lease, the appraised value
of the, fixtures, together with the rent. Without making any
complaint against his bargain, Mr. Willoughby proposed a
mortgage to secure the Noble Earl, to which was added the
power of attorney, with un'Understanding that it was only to
be used by way of security for principal, interest, and rent:
At the last quarter-day there was due for rent (at 450/. a year),'
purchase-money, and interest, more than 6,0001. His Lord-
ship was about to enter up judgment, but was restrained by the
injunction of the Court, which it was the object of the motion
to dissolve.

The Loan CITANCELLOR said, that in granting the motion
exparte, he had done it with this view. Ile had passed over
all the allegations concerning the posting business and the bad-
ness of the contract, because it was strange to think of a roan
holding possession of an inn for five years, and then coming to
the Court fur release from the Contract upon circumstances
which existed at the first commencement. his Lordship had
therefore left.that part of the case, as one which was likely to
be answered in the argument upon showing cause against the
motion. But it did appear upon the documents, that the power
of attorney.was obtained from Mr. Willoughby, with an under-
standing that the only use which would be made of it would be
that of enforcing the fulfilment of the covenants of the agree-
ment. Now there was considerable money due to Lord Gros.
venor upon this agreement, upon which it was available for his
Lordship to have entered up judgment on the power of attorney.
Instead of which, as it was represented to the Court, the first
step taken was to give. Mr.. Willoughby notice to quit, whereas
there was an agreement in the lease for the mode of appraising
and settlement, which were to be adopted in case of Mr. Wil-
loughby letting the inn to another tenant, or giving it up to
Lord GrosvenOr. But as things stood at present, I%lr. Wil-
loughby was put in:a situation by which he could not hold the
property with any advantage to himself or any body else ; and
this appeared to be a mode of using the power of attorney,
which was always a good security for Lord Grosvenor for the
payment of money and the fulfilment of the covenants, not at
all warranted by the terms and understanding. wherewith it was
first given. He had accordingly granted the injunction ex-parte,
on condition of Mr. Willoughby paying into Court all the
arrears due to Lord Grosvenor, thinking that the argument
being conducted under those circumstances would lead to a de-
cision of the question as to what right Lord Grosvenor had in
regard to the use of the power of attorney, apart from the no-
tion of security for the fulfilment of covenants : and then, sup-
posing those covenants either fulfilled or secured, what powers
were left him by the lease and agreement as to ejecting Mr.
Willoughby.
Mr. HouNE followed the Solicitor-General.—Further argu-
ment to-morrow.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Dr.c. 9.
EX-PARTE YOUNGMAN, A BANKRUPT.
Mr. CUING moved upon the petition of the bankrupt, that
the proceedings of the Commissioners in the commission
awarded against him should be stayed, and that the execution
of a warrant which had been issued for his apprehension should
be suspended. The affidavit stated, that the petitioner having
been declared bankrupt, under a commission issued in the early
part of 1821, had applied, in 1022, to have that commission
superseded. Upon that occasion his Honour the Vice-Chancel-
lor pronounced an order staying the proceedings under the com-
Mission, and directing an inquiry. This order was never drawn
up, the bankrupt conceiving that he was not the person bene-
fitted•by it, and that therefore it was fOr his opponents to avail
themselves ofit, which they could only do by drawing it up and
serving a copy on him. The business of the commission had
remained in total suspension from the time of his Honour's
pronouncing the order until very recently, when the Commis-
sioners ordered a Meeting, and summoned the p9titio. ^r to
surrender. Ile declined to do so, because the inquiry directed
by the Viee-Chancellor had not been made, and the order there-
fore not complied with. The Conimissioners, in consequence
of his refusal to obey their summons, issued a warrant, which
was now in the hands of the officer, and by virtue of which
the bankrupt was in imminent danger of being apprehended.
Upon' these grounds he applied to the Court for its protection.
The VICE7CUANCELLOIL said, the bankrupt, whatever
might be the Merits of his case, had been guilty of too flagrant
a neglect in not drawing; up the order, to entitle himself to the
protection he sought. Ile had suflereil two years to elapse, dur-
ing which he had. taken no steps to convince the Court of the
truth of that case which he had represented to them. There
was not kshadow of pretence, therefore, for the application.—
The bankrupt must abide, by the consequences of his own su-
pineness.

penet p
1 the leatlings. This was an
action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant to recover
a compensation in damages for the injury and annoyance he
sustained from the defendant's carrying on the business of a
blacksmith in his immediate neighbourhood. The defendant
pleaded " not guilty," and on that point issue was joined.
Mr. u TM ir stated the case to the Jury, and the circum-
stances of it were shortly these. The plaintiff and defendant
both live in Ebury-square, Pimlico, the first in No. 15, and the
other in No. 16. Shortly after the plaintiff had taken posses-
sion of his house, the defendant took possession of the house
adjoining, and erected in the yard of it a forge, where he car-
ried on the business of a blacksmith. This occasioned great
smoke and noise ; but in consequence of some alterations which
had been made on the premises by the defendant since the com-
mencement of this action, the nuisance arising from the smoke
had been abated, though that arising from the noise stilt re-
mained. The Learned Counsel said that he should call wit-
nesses to describe the nature of the noise, and he had no doubt
that when their statements had been heard, the Jury would see
the propriety of returning a verdict for the plaintiff.
Three or four witnesses were then called, who described the
noise to be intolerable. One of them was a servant to the plain-
! tiff. She stated that the noise of hammers and anvils was in-
cessant, from six o'clock in the morning till seven at night.
On her cross-examination, she admitted that the smoke was
much worse than the noise, but that the noise, bad as it was,
never woke her when asleep.- Miss Bond, who had been • a
weekly lodger with her master for the last four months, had not
intimated to her any intention of giving up her lodgings on ac-
count of the nuisance complained of.
'Another of the witnesses was the occupier of the house No.
17 ; he swore that the noise made in the defendant's shop was
sufficient to shake the very earth from its foundation; but on
his cross-examination admitted, that it had not been sufficient
to shake his lodgers from the apartments they rented under
him.
Mr. SCARLETT contended that even on the.plaintiff"s show-
ing there was no nuisance of which he had a right to complain.
He would, however, prove to them, not only that the noise, of
which the plaintiecomplained, was not great, but also that
lie did not carry on the business of a blacksmith. Ills client
WWI a whitesmith, and therefore did not make' any thing like
the noise in the world that a blacksmith does. It was therefore
quite absurd to expect that the plaintiff should run away with
their verdict.
Several witnesses wore called, who supported Mr. Scarlett's
statement.

(Sittings in London, bejbrc Lord Chief Justice BEST and" a
Common Jury.)
11.111RATT AND ANOTIIEU V. COLLIES. •
This was an action brought by the plaindfni, Mr. Barran
and Mr. Hodsoll, against the defendant, an attorney, for ma-
liciously holding them to hail. The plaintiff's resided near
Darttbrd, in Kent ; and in their capacity or assignees in the
matter of Cowell, a bankrupt, they employed the &fondant to
prosecute an action against one Mr. Bugden. They after-
wards changed him for Mr. Davies, their e
npreent attorney in
this action. Mr. Collins considered himself ot handsomely
treated, and sent in his bill of costs, which amounted to MI.
This bill was taxed, and the Master struck A. M. His rea-
son for doing this was, that the practice is not to tax the bill
as between the attorney and the assignees, but between the
assignees and the estate; and there might be several items
which the attorney could recover from the plaintiff's in their
individual capacity, but not as assignees. Mr. Collins ar.

rested the plaintiff's for the 601. The Sheriff's-officer prey
ed that the arrest did not put them to the least inconvenience,
for he suffered them to go at large upon each other's bail.
They executed a bail-bond, the expense of which was
three guineas, and this Mr. Hodson paid. It appeared from
this witnesses testimony, that he had more than once arrested
Mr. Hodson, with whom he kept a running account (laughter)
and that Mr Collins had frequently passed his word for Hod-
soil, on these occasions. The plaintiffs owed Mr. Collins a
small sum of 51. odd (a private debt), which sum they paid into
Court; and which Mr. Collins took out of Court. The expenses
of the application was 131. some shillings. There were some
bills between the parties, and the. plaintiffs thought that as Mr.
Collins had taken the money out of Court, he had thereby taken,
it as a set-off for his bill, and was not justified in holding them
to bail without probable cause.
Mr. Serjeant YELL was for the plaintiffs; and kr. Serjeant
Va uGuAW and Mr. Serjeant WILDE for the defendant.

His Lordship here left the Court for a short time. On his
return he observed, that these discussions were the cause of
great evil, and he would not allow them in future.
Mr. Sergeant PELL here interposed and said, that as far ae
he was concerned for the plaintiffs, he would obviate the pre:

objections whatever, when the motion for a nonsuit should be
