Tice paragraphs which have appeared from time
to time in a Morning Paper, respefling the resig.
nation of the present First Lord of the Admiralq,,
we can positively more the Public, are idle and
wicked fabrications, destitute of the least founda.
tion in truth. We have beard from subelae they
proceed, and may probably hear a great deal in,Nte
shortly,`4en such o system of itveabiep, jai!), Jud
maievolieria will .be ;exposed to the wutid, 44 Lit.
world, we presume, little expillo to hear—buz t:,e(c
are no bounds to the ma ice of wicked Alta, iiisap.
pointed Men.

1r had been stir intention, this elq, to itiVte
vindicated our comments upon the Spassh Discus.
skins, from the various attacks which have been
made upon them by our Cotemporaries, and upon
the speculations to which They have given rise ; but
finding that West attacks- are continued, and that-
they are assuming daily new and extraordinary
forms, we have determined to wait until, all the.-
changes having been rung upon our supposed inten.
tions and mutivec, we have leisure to silence them
once for.all. It will be found, we are certain, that
we 'have been actuated, in our late conduct,, by a due
regard to the consistency of our own charaeler, and
of the opinion* which we have heretofore professed
upon the sobjeet in discussion.

Yesterday morning about half past nine o'clock,
the Rotas. Fott tot left Windsor. HIS MAJESTY
stopped at Kew and dined. About three o'clock
His MAJESTY set out, and arrived at the Queen's
House at a quarter before four. The Qu aEN and
Pa INC ism arrived about half past twelve.
The evening of Sunday was passed by the ROYAL
FAMILY at -Windsor, where a Concert of Sacred
Music, from the Works of FIANDEL and other great
Masters, W/19 performed by Her NiAJESTY's Itand„
ina the Gentlemen of the Windsor Choir..
Yesterday morning the PRINCESS SoPHIA of
GLOUCESTER visited the QUEEN and PRINCESSES,
Yesterday the DUKE" of SUSSEX, Count BEALL.
JOLAIS, and a seled party, dined' with His Rciyal
Highness the Patrice of WALES, at Carleton.
House.

The KING has been pleased, to grant to the Rev.
JOHN FRANCIS SEYMOUR ST. JOHN, Clerk, M. A.
the place and dignity of a Cantin or Prebendary .of
the Cathedral Chord% of Worcestairi void by the death
of Dr., TtiomAs JAMES.

We again asstrt,for, last time, that tht State.
ment given in the Morninz Chtoniele, reareeting
Lord ISUCKINGHAMsIiIitt, AnsOLUTELY FALSE.
We likewise assert, that Mr. ADDINGTON had
no , connexion .whatever with the appointment• of
1)r. SvTToti.

As for Lord Mitt:viLLE, we certainly did not
deny the repetition of what we have no knowledge
of in thefirst instance. We rather think that we have
heard of the occurrence which is alinded to by the
Chronicler as having lately happened, and we will
venture to assert, in the teeth of all his positiveness,
that the tone was not addressed, 'in the first in.
stance, to an exclusive friend of Mr. Plik% ; and
that whatever sensation it has 'occasioned; is by, no
means confined to any one part of the Cabinet, or
to any individull in it. The matter has about as
much to,do with the undue infinenct of which so
much has been said, as the promotion of Dr. Stn..
1:011 to the Primacy,. who, as it is well known, had
positiVily refused, although he had no ordinary soli.,
citation, to support Mr. Alft) INGTON against the
attacks which ended in his resig'natinn.
Having thus disposed of the Morning Chronicler
and hisf4at, we beg,that it may he observed, that
it is not oar intention in future to notice any of his
statements which are not given diitintily and without
ntys(rry or reserve, When he speaks out it, is very
easy to deal with him !

Yesterday we received Ameticah Pqrri to the

The zeal and alacrity displayed by the Vulon.

THE KING V. SAVAGE.

Mr. GAR Rd* moved for a criminal information
against this -Gentleman, for in assault and challenge,
under the. following circumstances : The Learned
Counsel said, the Defendant, Mr. Hunt, and Sir W.
Rawlins, were playing at the familiar game of three.
card 100. During the progress of the play the lat-
ter took notice that 111 r. Savage. eluded, playing a
trump, according the rules of the game, by which
expedient the Gentleman was enabled to convey
into his pocket one.third of the stake. This was fol-
lowed by other irregularities inconsistent with the
established order of the game, from which -the De..
Pendant derived considerable advantages ; but not
content 'with these, before he retired, he seized a
quantity of money which lay upon the table..' While
be was taking an abrupt departure, Sir W.Rawlins, •
addressing him, said (in alllusion to this transaction),
" I hope, Sirs'you will leave the zoom like a Gentle.
man." Mr; Savage hastily inquired the motive 'of
this observation.; to which Sir W. Rawlinureplied,
" It will be mote correct to restore the money you
have purloined before you withdraw." This remark
was scarcely made before Mr. Savage struck Sir W.
Rawlins a violent blow upon the temple, which the
Latter returned. in the excess of his indignation un.
4er such treatment. Mr. Savage, before he left,the
room, said, that he expelled to hear further from Sir
W. Rawlins ; and this assault and challenge supplied
the'ground of the application to the Curt for this
form of proceeding, by criminal information.

This MAtiiln was brought before the Court upon
case,, the particulars of which:were read. by Mr.
Bess, by which it appeared, . that Mary .Taylor,
being pregnant and unmarried, had; in the usual form,
fixed William,Guwerk the Defendant, as the putative
father. The Defendant was taken into custody in
consequence , and, to ob:ain his release, he offered
201, to the Parish Officers. He was nut able to pay
the:money diatciy, and therefore,they required
security. In compli.ince with their demand, he
obtained the name of one Piggot to three bills, at
six, twelve, and twenty-four months, making in the
whole the gum stated. This aftion:was brought on

Mr. BeAT, for the Plaintiff's, said, they were in
the situation of Churchwardens, and explained the
nature of their situations in cases of this kind under
the 18th Eliz. c. 3. and under the 6th Geo. 11. c. 31.
The father not chusing to be answerable to an un-
certain extent for the maintenance' of the child, of.
fercd a certain sum to be indemnified : the parish
assented to this indemnity ; anti this, the Learned
Counsel contended, was a sufficient consideration
for the note.

Mr. GAZeLtY, for the Defendant, took the broad
ground of legal policy on Which such alsargain be.
twerp the putative father and .the parish could not
be admitted. The extravagant excesses of paro.
cilia! officers at the tables supplied by public ex.
pence was a subjed of notoriety and of general
complaint ; if these 'gambling contrafts were • per.
mitred, it would be the interest of the parish that
the children under its immediate inspedtion should
be negleeted or destroyed, and the money that ought
to be devoted to the support of the rising generation,
might be applied to the indulgence of gluttony. •
Lor4 ELLE N BOROUGH.—." I fake the contract to
be void, upon the principles of public policy. This
is an adventure, or speculation, entered into by per.
suns clothed with an important public tryst, afrord_
ing to them'a contingent gain upon the mal-execo.
tion of their duty. The law is extremely jealous
of the mode in which trustees employ their powers,
even in matters of private concern ; and no' person
can therefore purChase an estate, even at Public auc..
tion, to which he, is appointed trustee. If bargains
of this 'nature were permitted,'it would be present..
ing a temptation to negligence, if not to violence,
in one of the most essential obje&s of public, con-
cern ;I mean the. nurture and maintenance of those,
children who ate unhappily deprived of their
total proteacrs."

The other Learned Judges concurring with his
Lordship, judgment was given for the Defendant.

YLETCHER v. WILKINS.

This case brought forward the question, if the
Statute of the tafth Geo. 11. c. 44.. require that the
copy of a warrant should be giVen before action be
brought incase of replevin ? The subjeft was argued
on a demurrer, and occupied a considerable portion
of the time of 'the Court. An the great AuthOtitlei
were occasionally considered, from Fitzherbertis
Natura Brennen, to the mesent time, tint especially
Mr. Justice Wines' Dithm, in his Reports on this
subje4"..

Mr. ABBOT) for the demtirreri „commented at
great length on ;Lc opinion of that I.e3rned Chief
Justice, which, *6 it Stood; he conceived its be an au.
thority decidedly in Lis fayous,

The Coiinsil fói the befendaiii res:isied the are
gtiiients of Mr. At rio.r, and 'contended both on
the Statutes, and on the cases, all the' salutary
efrects ()f a replevin would *be disappointed, if the
6:h Section of the 24th Geo. 11. Were applitible
to the case of a replevin.
Lord ELLEitiOROUCH.-"" The subject `of
great consequence, in two points of view .fi„st,
tt will disappoint the subject of a form of.:action
whiCh has been held, and properly so held, to be ,
extremely beneficial; next, as it Will prevent the
Magistrate from availing himself of a mide of pro.
tection very advantageous to him in the discharge ,
of his duties. As there is an evident cnittradic.
tion in the authorities connected with this •inquiry,
it is fit the Court should take time to consider the
principles on which they are supported."

J. JONES.

Mr. Gmis moved for a Writ of Habeas Corpus,
to bring up the body, of J. Jones, who had been
subjected to the impress by anOfficer of 'the Navy,
not because he was a proper object of that service,
but because he had committed an offence which the
Officer of the Impress could not easily excuse. It
appeared that the Deptford Tender was, to tife the
lea phrase, thrown athwart the hawse- Of the brig
on board which Jones was the first mate, and it
seems this man did nut exactly do what the con.
ductor of the Deptford' expected to relieve him
from this momentary difficulty ; the Officer, there.
fore, took the law into his own hands, and sub_
jected the offender to an engagement in His Ma.
jesty's service, contrary to his wishes and interest,
during the war. This person is noticed' in an
official letter from the Lieu:enant, in which the
latter says, " I thought by sending him to the
Note, it would be better known among persons in
the merchant's service, how such men ouiilit to
behave in regard to the tenders."
Lord ELLINBOROUOI4.—Is he liable under the
regulations of the impress ?"
Mr. Gwen.—r-4' I cannot say by I.lw he is not
hags ; but I trust your Lordships will think -the
law is much better where it is, than if submitted to
cite controul of .these .officers in the Impress Ser.

letter, and it may supply aground for you to resort

In a Provincial Print, a reward of twtnty guineas
is Offered for the apprehension of two highwaymen,
who, on the evening of yesterday se'nnight, at.
tacked a person on the road between Loft house and
Leeds, and took from his person " a pocket-book,
five one guinea notes end three parr of
boots."

On Wednesday sennight, as the Manchester
coach was descending a step hill near Buxton,
though locked to prevent accidents, the road was
so frozen and so slippery that it suddenly wheeled
aside, and was overturned. Mr. MARSDEN, tailor,
of Shefl•ield, being on the top, was most unfortu.
nately thrown under the falling coach, and killed
upon the spot. He has left s %%Ur' and several
children.

On the morning of the 7th instant a labourer,
named Erskine, of between bo and 7o years of age,
residing in the pariah of Munikte, Scotland, in
going from hia house to his work, accidently fell
into a ditch full of water, and wa, drowned. He
has left a wile and three children,

Yesterday se'nnight, as Mr. Wst. Rtisaartiort,
of Lewes, was on his way to East Baurne, in the
stage coach, he discovered, soon after he had left
Hailskam, that the horses were without a driver,
'and, alarmed' at the circumstance, contrived to let
himsel( out, which he had no sooner accomplished,
than'he stopped the horses, and humanely sought
the coachman, who had fallen frortrthe box, but, on.
fortunately, its vain ; he therefore returned to the
coach, and led the horses on to East Bourne, where
he arrived abut three in the morning, when several
persons were immediately dipatched in search of
the unfortunate man, whom at day-light they
found lying dead in a dirty drove-way contiguous
to the main road, with his whip close by him, from
which it is evident that he received no material in.
jury in his fall from the box ; but, in attempting
to recover the coach afterwards, through the dark.
nehl of the night; and probably inebriety; he mitt.
took his way, and falling with his face in a deep
wheel-rut full of water, was suffocated for want of
assistance. The deceased, whose name was Samuel
Sutton, has left a pregnant widow anti nine chi!.
siren to lament his loss. The proprietors of the
coach have, in consequence of the accident, de.-
dined running it during the winter months.
A. few nights ago a desperate assault was com.
mitred on Tnostal ATK I NSO E.,q. who is apart.;

posed, of robbing him. in, riding , between the
abovenamed place and Stentoo, about.-half past ten
o'clock, at Gosling Sykes, where there is a narrow
pass leading to a small bridge, he was attacked by
two ruffians, who pulled him off horseback mut
while he was stoutly conflicting with them, the
spirited animal he rode upon set off homeword.
Mr. A. vigorously defended himself; and had
knocked down one of the assailants, when, as if to
his assistance, the mare Mlle galloping hack,• the
distant clatter of whose feet so much disconcerted
the villains,' that tbey fled very, hastily-across the
country, though one of them was much :bruised.;
whereupon Mr. ATKINSON' with considerable pro.
