WHITS P. DRIGG3.-JUDGMENT.

The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in
this case, varying, in some respects, the decision of
the Court below.

RARE V. ROWLAND •--.TUDGMB7T.
The LORD CIIANCRLLOR also gave judgment in
this case, which came before the Court upon appeal
from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor of England.
The question in this case turned upon the construc-
tion of the will of a gentleman named Slater, of
Hampstead. That gentleman by his will, dated in
1806, two years before his death, gave to trustees so
much of his personalty, to be invested in the Five
per Cent. Annuities, as would bring a yearly income
of 6001., which he directed should be paid to his wife
for life, and after her death, to his dear daughter,
Anna Maria Slater, and after her death to be divided
among her children. But if she left no children, or if
they died under 24 years of age, then he bequeathed
two sums of 500/. each to his two grandchildren,
if they should be then alive ; " and all the
rest and residue of the trust moneys, with interest,
increase, and dividends, he gave and bequeathed
among his heirs-at-law, share and share alike." The
testator died in 1808, leaving at his death his wife
and one child, the daughter, surviving, who also sur-
vived the widow, and died in October, 1844. She
left two sons living, who were co-heirs of herself and
also of the testator. On the death of the testator a
sum of 20,000/. was invested, and the interest regu-
larly paid during the life of the widow and daughter.
On the case coming on for hearing before the
Vice-Chancellor of England, the great question
was as to the construction to be put on the
word " heirs." For the heir-at-law it was con-
tended that the word must be understood strictly,
and that consequently the bequest was to the heirs at
law of the testator at the time of his death as desig-
natve personae. It was contended also, contra, that
the word heirs wat understood to mean no more than
next of kin of the testator, the gift being of personalty.
Some, on the other hand, sought to interpret the gift
as to the next of kin of the testator, excluding the
daughter, while other claimants understood it to mean
the next of kin of the daughter. There was also
difference of opinion as to the time referred to, whether
the proper period of construction was at the death of
the daughter or of the testator. The Vice-Chancellor
thought that the testator meant his heirs at law at
the time of his death as designates porsonse, otherwise
the will would be void for uncertainty, and
decreed accordingly, and from that decision the
parties appealed. His Lordship was of opinion the
decision of the Court below was correct, and dismissed
the appeal with costs.

HEALTH OF MR. T. DuNcomas, M.P.—We regret
to announce that the health of this patriotic gentleman
is in such a state as to leave no hope that he will ever
again be in a condition to resume his seat iu Parliament.
He still remains in the country.
SERIOUS ILLNESS OF THE ARCHBISHOP' OF CAN
TEREURY.—A correspondent assures us, with a regret in
which we fully share, that our venerable Primate is
really in a precarious state, and that his Grace's medical
attendants watched by him during the whole of the
nights of the 22d and 23d instant. The Archbishop is,
of course, quite unable to leave his room. We under-
stand his Grace has intimated, by letter, to the Bishop
of Hereford, his anxious desire to be present at his con-
secration, and his regret that the condition of his health
renders it impossible for him at present to fix a day.—

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

The best play Sheridan Knowles has ever yet pro-
duced—The Hunchbach—was acted here last evening
with Mrs. Charles Kean as Julia, and Mr. Charles Kean
as Sir Thomas Clifford. Mrs, Charles Kean acted very
finely—the early simplicity and devotion to Master
Walter was charming, as the latter scenes were ter-
rible in their impassioned intensity. The confiictions
of pride with the tenderer emotions were truthfully
delineated, and the burst of power in the famous scene
with Master Walter in the fifth act, beginning with the
line—

" Show me some way to 'scape these nuptials! Do it!"
was equal to the finest tragic acting we have witnessed,
and akin to the withering passion of Rachel in the ce-
lebrated curse in Les Hyraces. Sir Thomas Clifford
was acted by Mr. Charles Kean with a refinement of
style and a depth of poetical appreciation which elevated
the character far above its accustomed exposition. Mr.
Charles Kean has shown his judgment in choosing the
character of Sir Thomas Clifford instead of that of
Master Walter. Although hitherto considered as a
mere walking gentleman, because, when the
piece was first produced, Sheridan Knowles, who
could not act Sir Thomas Clifford, chose to cast himself
for Master Walter, Sir Thomas Clifford is, next to
Julia, the great part of the piece, and exquisitely
did Mr. Charles Kean develop the hitherto unappreciated
beauties of the character. He left the heavy Master
Walter to Mr. Creswick. Mr. Webster was exceedingly
quaint and amu,,ing as Modus, and Miss Julia Bennet
was as expiegle as could be desired in Helen. The prin-
cipal performers were called before the curtain and rap-
turously applauded. The house was crowded.

MARYLEBONE THEATRE.
A comic drama, called '1 he Witch of Windermere, by
Mr. Charles St:lby, was produced at this theatre last
night. Its dramatic pretensions do not amount to
much, but there is a broad surface for the purposes
of Mr. Buckstone, who manages to keep the two acts
alive by his amusing personation of an uncouth rustic,
striving to be genteel in order to please a village
beauty who has vague notions of refinement, and
been especially smitten with the mincing fopperies of a
London livery servant, to the prejudice of her rough but
honest admirer. Buckstone's jealous paroxysms and in-
continent attempts at suicide are droll enough, and re-
vive many a hearty laugh upon an old basis. He is
well supported by Mrs. Fitzwilliam, who plays the
coquette with her accustomed piquancy, and exhibits
much natural feeling at the end, when the rustic restores
himself to her geed graces by an unexpected act of
heroism The pi.,:ee was extremely well received.

NEW GAS BURNERS.-ROYAL LETTERS
PATENT.—Their names are, the Star—the Comet—the
Golden—the Glass—the Ring—and the Reflecting Burners. It is
proved, beyond doubt, by men of Science and gas engineers, that no
other Gas Burners bear comparison with them. Bright as crystal is
the light. Ne smoke emitted. The most economical and the most
elegant of all. The improvements are so evident, all should have
them.

Sir,—After a carefal examination of your New Gas Burners,
which I have tested in comparison with the best hitherto known, I
am compelled to acknowledge that your recent digcovery is superior
to all others in economy, and in the purity of the flame produced
by it.
By the simple, yet truly scientific arrangements of your burners,
you have succeeded perfectly in obtaining the proper supply of air,
both in quantity and position ; thus, the flame is, at all tines, steady
and intensely luminous ; while even under suddenly Increased pres-
sure, or during draughts of air, no smoke is given off.

budget for foreign affairs. By the propositions of
Government, the budget for 1849 would be 500,000 f.
66c. less than the budget for 1848, and if the reduc-
tions proposed by the central sections be adopted,
this reduction will be 625,843 f. 64c. This question
is expected to give rise to considerable debate.—

ITALY.

The following is the letter addressed to the Marquis
SACCIIETTI by the PorE, announcing the intention
of his Holiness to quit Rome :
" Marquis Sacchetti,—We confide to your well. known
prudence and integrity to inform the Minister Galletti of
our departure, authorising him and the other Ministers
not only to protect the palaces, but much more the per-
sons therein, who were entirely ignorant of our resolu-
tion. We take the more interest in their safety, because,
we again repeat, they were entirely ignorant of our in-
tention.—Signed Pius IX., Nov. 24, 1848. Counter-
signed G. GALLETTI, Minister of the Interior, Nov. 25,
1848."

The Abbe ROSMINI has not left Rome, nor, it is
said, does he intend quitting the Eternal City.
The Gazetta di Roma of the 23d announces that
the new Ministers have given up half their salaries to
the public treasury.
The POPE was, it is said, accompanied in his flight
by Cardioal LAMBRUSCIIINI.
The whole of the corps diplomatique left Rome
when the departure of the POPE became known.

MAinAui arrived in Rome on the 23d. When the
last accounts left General ZUCCIII was at Bologna,
and General GARIBALDI at Ravenna:

It is said to be in cantemplation to erect Lombardy
and Venice into an independent kingdom for the Duke
of LEIICHTENBERG• The majority of the Lombards
themselves would prefer the Duke of LEUCHTENBERG
to CHARLES ALBERT.
The Milan Gazette of the 24th contains an official
denial, on thepart of Marshal RADETZKY, that he ever
wrote the letter imputed to him, addressed to the
Archduke Lours, who has for some time past retired
from public affairs.

The- Alba:of Florence states that great agitation
reigned at Naples on the 26th, and that an outbreak
was hourly expected. It was believed that the Nea-
politan Ministry had resigned, and that they would
be succeeded by M. SAVARESE, who would give the
Portfolio of Finance to the Prince of ANGRI. A
rumour was prevalent that the King of NAPLES, had
declared war against Rome and Tuscany. The elec-
tions at Florence, which had been interrupted on the
22d, were to be recommenced on the 27th.

The Concordia, Turin journal, of the 29th ult.
deplores the departure of Plus IX., who, it says,
abandons Rome and Italy, and confides their destinies
to foreign h.ndc journal hopes tnat tno
Ministry and people of Rome will be equal to the
circumstances, and prove that the person of the
PONTIFF was not absolutely necessary to the temporal
administration of his dominions.

Mr. One hall the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
titter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
eomprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice denssuld that health sheuldform aaitem
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance.. Blighted hopes or
aeglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern yea, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by post, in stamps, la. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
fsr the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price ls. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Rat, Drink, and
Avoid," and "'How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
iffb, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would bo done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always

RUSSIA.

The Wanheini Zeitung, in mentioning a report
which stated that a treaty had been concluded
between the Russians and SCHAMYL, gives an extract
from a letter that bad been received from the Polish
border, to the following effect :
"In the German papers the news has gone abroad
that Russia had concluded a treaty with the Caucasian
people, by which their freedom and independence is ac-
knowledged. I can, on the contrary, assure you that
these reports require strong confirmation. The last
letters from Tiflis, at least, say that the position of the
contending parties remained entirely unaltered. The
above report may have arisen from the fact of some of
the Daghestan tribes who had succumbed to the power
of Russia had made a proposal for a treaty to Prince
Woronzow, and also from the fact that a body of troops,
some 5,000 strong, formerly stationed in the Caucasus,
had received orders to march to Poland."
The Russian papers now give an official report,
which throws some light 'von the last expedition to
the Caucasus. From widely-disseminated reports
we also learn that SCHAMYL, on the 10th of Septem-
ber, with an imposing force, had repaired, during the
feast of Achti, to the Kamurschen border, where he
had attacked General ROTH, who had driven him
back ; but being subsequently attacked himself byr a
heavy body of troops, a severe action took place. 'The
Russians give their loss in this action at 15 killed and
152 wounded, and estimate the loss of the enemy at
300 in killed alone.
