MARY LEBONE ELECTION OF VESTRYNIEN.—A severe
contest is expected, we understand, in Marylebone, on
occasion of electing the vestrymen. These gentlemen
exercise some political influence, and, were the Tories
to succeed in the parochial elections, they would have a
much better chance of success in electing the Mi.albers
for the borotiab. We hope that no Reformer will be
idle or negligent on the occasion, and that all will exert
themselves to secure the return of those gentlemen
recommended by the parochial committee. The day of
nomination is on Monday, when no private par-
tialities or animosities ought to stand in tha way
of the public good. Every Reformer should
exert bimsel , resolved to conquer in parish matters,
that he may afterwards be the conqueror in the contests
for legilative power. The Elected Vestry having been
grossly attacked by the Tories, have put tbrth an elabo-
rate and complete refutation of the charges. In seven
years the Soleet Vestry expended 1,015,824/. In seven
years the Elected Vestry expended 847,9571., reducing
the expenditure in seven years 167,867/. Between
1832 and 1838 the expenditure for the relief of. the
poor was reduced more than one halt, while the poor
were better taken care of. Time Elected Vestry invite
their constituents to a full investigation of their conduct,
which is the only means of enabling the parishioners to
conic to a correct decision.

CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY.)

CLAPTON V. BULMEII.-JUDGMENT.

The LORD CHANCELLOR give judgment to-day in this
case, which was argued before his
,Lordship a few days
since. His Lordship said that being desirous of examin-
ing the authorities on the subject before he decided what
appeared to him to be the undoubted intention of the party,
he had delayed giving judgment till to-day. The testator
in the cause havin an only daughter, after giving several
legacies, gave theg residue of his personal estate to tar-
tees, on trust to pay the income, after providing for seve-
ral annual Sums, for the separate use of the daughter.
That income was to be secured against any future covert use,
and atter her death the income was to go to her children.
After this there was a proviso in the will, to the etiset
that in case his daughter should happen to die wifnout
issue, the trustees, upon her decease, were to raise and pay
the sum of 3.0001. to such person as she should appoint,
hut in case his wife should survive his daughter then he
directed that the trustees should also raise and pay 2.0001.
to her, and the residue was to go to the nearest of kin of
his own family for ever. In this state of things the con-
te-t was bet., cen those who claimed through the dais ght,r,
who was the sole next of kin at the death e f the
testator, and those persons who were next e f kit
at the date of the daughter's death, and who were
also the present next of kin. The question was
whether the testator intended the daughter, who was
the sole next of kin at his own death, should take the whole
of the residue, or whether those who filed the double. cha-
racter of next of km at the d lighter's d,ath, and also of
the present next of kin, were to take. Upon the case corning
before the Vi .e Chat-cellos, his Honour was of opinion
that it was not intended by the testator that the daughter
should take, but that those who filled the character either
of her next of kin at her death, or those who were the
present next of kin were entitled to the residue.
d4meTheirwith.
nt
Lordships were clearly of opinion that his Honour the
Vice-Chancellor's judgment was correct, and he must
therefore dismiss the appeal against his ju
costs. The Court then proceeded to bear causes.
