couitrxF CHANCSSX, Nov. 27.

• BLUNOEL.:
te question it' ,Itis case was, Whether, accord-
inv to ale Arne intent and im'aning of the testa-
tor's will anti •his personal eStaTe. was to
be considered as exempt from the payment of his
debts.

The case had been argued with, considerable.
learning at the bar, and this morning- the LORD
COANCELLOit pronounced his judgment. His
:Lordship, in a most luMinous speech,. reviewed
some OF the principal cases on this subject dur-
ing the Inst century, and particularly the case
of Lord Inchiquin and O'Brien (Ambler, page
33), in which Lord Hardtvicke examined the
various antecedent decisions. •Between the time
of that learned Chancellor 'and the time of Lord
.T.hfirlow,. great difference of ()Pinion, had pre-
vailed as to the circumstances of exoneration. In
the case of the Duke of Ancaster and Mayor,
Lord Tharlow laid great stress on the clause
%vivid) appointed Executors, who. were 'aisci the
Tiaisteeis.of•the real estate; but Lord Alvanley
seemed..to, have furnished the true principle on
which futtire,Judges ought to proceed; Windy,
that yMi norsl look at the whole of the %OH, and
then say, .are you convinced, (for you are not to
rest on conjecture), that 'the testator meant to
exonerate his personal estate. It.was not neces-
sary to have express words to exempt that estate,
hut there must be expressions tantamount to ex-
press. words, so that the-Judge could not tuist:4l;e
the testator's intention. Neither, Was it enough
that the real estate was charged with the payment
of debts., the, construction on the will must be,'
that the personal estate was discharged.
liis•Lordship then proceeded to:examine the
-whOle of the present will and codicil, and declared,
that with shah a deg,tee of attention as h had
'thOught it ne•;esspy,to-devote to this subject, he
tel a conpictinitju his judicialsmind, that the tes-
t meautsto exonerate his per'sonal estate fforn

cessary to`sheW that it was made withn.the piivi
,leged preciirets. For this, purpose, .I.l.lr..Park was
provided whit affidavits, stating that
.the officer,
whose duty it had been for many, years to attend
to the paving of Tower, ihati uniformly paidj
for. yaving a disnince 01.15 yard beyomd thel,;ate;
where the defendint had been arrested. In the
case of Lord Ferrets, for tile Murder of John-
son,• as giVen in .Mr.llargra're's edition of. the
State Trials, the warrant to the Lieutenant of the
Tower, Was set out, iii Which:he...was required to •
bring the body of Lord Ferrers" to the Usual•
place without the gate of the Tower of, Loudon:"
It was also sworn, that the Major of the :Tower
had the custody.and.care of the armoury, regalia;
&c.

Lord ELLENBOROUGII.—“ Do you contend that
he carries with him a personal privilege from ar-
rest-wherever he goeS?''
Mr. PARK was about to proceed to establish
that point, and referred to. a case in- 5 T. R.,
which regarded the arrest of an inferior clerk of
the kitchen of:the King's Pabiee, iu which Lord
Kenyon hail decided in rayonr of the privilege; as
being that of the King, who.had occasion for the.:
attendance of his servant, and not of the servant
himself. also quoted a late case in 2Taunt.
167; in which it was held by Sir James Mans-
field, that the King's coachman- had a personal
privilege on, the same grounti. Mr. Park there=
fore argued, that, a fortiori, so important an-Of-
ficer-as the Major of the Tower was privileged.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH.—Is there any ease which
goes the length-,of establishing, that the Corn=_
manders of. the King's castles, garrisons, and
forts, Inive- a personal exemption ? It the defend.;
ant had been a menial or other servant, whose
attendance v as required npon.the Sovereign, he.
would he exempt both iii reason and by authority;
Mr. PARK submitted; that the case he had laid
before the Court was mtichstronger than that of
a 'serval:a. - .

Alr:'r.-OiK said, that he was ordered to attend
upon the Prince Regent at. Carlton-bnuse.
Lord ELLENBOROUG IL-Then you must put
your-case upon another ground than that of per-
sonal exemption, which he would carry
..always
with him ; you 'must say that he•was privileged
from arrest, being absent from the Tourer, attend-
ing his duty at Carlton-house. ,The Court will
grant a rule to show cause, and on the latter
ground it may be discussed.
Mr. PARK added, that he had yet a technical
objection to the arrest in till's case. The defend-
ant was taken on a Testatum Capids by the Sheriff
of London, whereas it was sworn, that the place
where the Major was taken into custody was in
the county of Middlesex.
.A rule to phew cause was granted to be drawn,
up for next Term, it being understood that the
defendant was not in confinement, a bond
.having
been given to the Sheriff.

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.

GASELEE (in the absence of the Attorney-
General) moved for a criminal information.against
two Magis:rates of the county of hams. The
facts.were shortly these : Under the 55th Geo.
III.; c. 67, certain returns ,were to he wade to the'
County Magistrates, of the number of poor in
the Uni!ed Kingdom, and for non-compliance a
penalty of 51, was incurred by the overseers of the
parishes.. In consequence of the .great increase
of population in the._New Forest, and other causes,
the Magistrates of that part of, the country,.who
used frier only to meet at Limington, for
public convenience had divided themselves, and
Meetings of than for the last fifteen Or twenty
yea' a!so been held. at Lindliurst and For-
he overseer of Forlay, named Lundy, not
having received any direction to the contrary,
Made his return under the 55th 'Geo. 111. to the
nieetitig of Magistrates at Forlay : 'and the over-
seer otLndliurst, named Pearce, had matte his
return to the Magistrates at' Lindburst— The
riN.lN.;:tstratps of Lionington conceiving this:to be
au invasion of their jurisdiction, innnediutely and
without notice, proceeded to er.invict those two
overseers in the. penalty provided in the Act, and
two of them (against whom Mr.,Ossdee now 41-
iected his application) hAd,sj,gned a Warrant 1431-
ACr which the'proper officer had proceeded to di”
train.

The Court, however, .was .of opinion; nuder
authority of the King v. 'l-leher, instr: 915,', thiit
a criminal informatjon could not in. the. first'in-'
stance be granted, but that the convictions ought
first to be brought before them byTertiorari.--4
Only legal corruption was imputed-tnthe
ti ates, and it was fit that they should- lniVe'e-Yery
lair protection. It might appear that they had!'
been misled.'

TIAA JUNG V. T. S. CIiAMPNYS, ESQ. JOIIN Ivr.s7,*

AND T. ATKINSON.

The first of the defenda-nts is a gentleman, •re-
siding at Orchard Lee.flouse, Somersetshire, and
the two laSt are his. si:.rratits. They .had, been
found guilty at•tlie last Assizes,oran assault. upon
John White, a sheriff's Oft leer: It appeared from
the notes of Mr: Justice that. ou the 28tH
Oct. 151,1, White, with his tollmver.went to..trlte
hoolse of Mr. Chanpnys, with two warrants. for
the sour of 34301-." It was evening wheirihey arriv-
ed, and after being detained two hours (during
which :time some ale • had been `gieen theme which
sent-thein.to sleep). .White was introduced into.
thezillitting-room, where he 'gave the warrant,to
:titampnys who' the officer that lie was:
drunk, t brew' theialrehind the tire. White tried.
to save them, when Mr. C.:knircked him down and
:thrust the poker in his face, which drew ,blood.
The servants (the tWo i)ther4efendants) enteritsg,
-I‘lr..Cliainpnys ordered them to turn: the officer
out ; they threw him but of doors with „great
violence, and their master, who struck .him: se-
veral times, with oatbi ordered he to thlt, him
into the pond and drown hiM,,tor,be.was a .11;a-
-gistrate- and might do what lie pleased. He also
told them to chain White to the manger with the
horses. The officer was obliged to beg for his
.and -was so touch &eaten and bruised as to be
unable to. execute, his duty.
Mr.• CtLimPnivs, at the trill,. addressed, the
Jury in his own behalf, endeavouring to shemt
that the officer, who was much intoxicated, had,
cominitted the first assault. He this day, on- lee-
ing brought up for judgment, produced many affi-
davits, which proved that White and his follower
had been drinking from 'Morning till night, when
they came to execute the warrant. Mr. Champ-
nys afterwards read a speeeh in mitigation of pu-
nishment ; but on the recommendation of the
court,

Serjeant FELL, for the prosecution, con-.
sented that judgment should be postponed until
the. decision of au indictment now pending at the
pi•osecutibo of Mr. Champnys against the officer,
for au assault upon loin.
