COURT OF CHANCERY-(THIS DAY).

The Loan CHANCELLOR sat this morning at half-past nine
o'clock for the purpose of hearing the remainder of the argu-
ments in a part-heard appeal, and also to give all his judg-
ments. It being understood that this was the last day of his
Lordship's sitting, the Court was crowded to excess during the
whole morning, every person present contending with the other
to catch the last glimpse of Lord Brougham in his judicial cha-
racter. Such was the anxiety displayed that not only the Court
but the avenues were choked up. The Bar were admitted through
his Lordship's private room into the Court. The arguments in the
part heard appeal being concluded, and an arplication having
been made by Mr. Pitt which the Court refused to grant,
his Lordship gave judgment in Moseley v. Carr, reversing the
judgment of the Court below. In Harris v. Long, making a
similar order. In Sherratt v. Bentley, giving the costs to all
parties, as between solicitor and client. In Harrington v.
Long, and Jones v. Waters, affirming the judgment below with
costs. In the Attorney-General v. The Ironmongers' Com-
pany, directing a reference back to the Master to approve of a
scheme. In Ward v. Pomfret, Woodhead v. Marriott, Wray
v. Hutchinson, Ward v. Fitzhugh, Warner v. Armstrong, and
Kennedy v. Green, affirming the judgment of the Court below
in all the cases.
THE LORD CHANCELLOR'S FAREWELL
ADDRESS.

His Lordship then addressed the Bar, and the vast mass of
persons assembled in Court, as follows :
" I have now disposed of all the cases that have been heard
before me up to the last, and it is with great satisfaction that
I quit the Court without putting any one party to the expense
and delay of having his cause reheard before another
Judge. I have equal satisfaction in observing, that
(besides a cause which stands over by consent of
parties, for Common Law Judges to attend), there are
only two causes which remain to be heard, that were set down
before the last long vacation. As I had no right to press the
parties closer than this, it was my intention, if I had remained
here, to adjourn the Court on the last day of Term, early next
week unto the next term the 11th of January, as I was obliged
to do in the month of June last for the like reason, the busi-
ness being disposed of. Thus I have the greatest satisfaction
in reflecting that the Court represented by its enemies, as the
temple of discord, delay and expense, has been twice closed
within the space of five months, and I ascribe this singular
felicity of these times in great part to the—( Here his
Lordship was so much affected as to be unable to
proceed for some minutes)—.l ascribe the singular fe-
licity of these times to the tried ability and indefati-
gable industry of my most learned and excellent coad-
jutors—the present Vice-Chancellor and my lamented friend
—( His Lordship was here again very much affected)—
the late Master of the Rolls, and in part also to the
labours and talents of the bar. That the same good
fortune will follow my successor I confidently expect, for he
too will have the aid of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, and
he will have the further aid of the present Master of the Rolls,
whose high accomplishments as a lawyer, and whose
consummate fitness for the judicial office, renders his elevation
alone the greatest benefit to the public, and my own best title
to the gratitude of the profession."
His Lordship then bowed most respectfully to an immensely
crowded bar, and quitted the Court shortly before two
o'clock.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

THE KING V. SHEPHERD.

At the sitting of the Court this morning Lord DENMAN gave
judgment in this case, which had been argued on Saturday last.
The question was to try the right of the Justices of the Peace of
the county of Wilts to enforce a rate on the borough of Marlbo-
rough. The charter of the borough conferred upon its Magistrates
the power to commit felons to the county gaol, but not to try
felonies. It had been proved that so far back as the year 1775 the
borough had levied rates in the name and for the use of the county,
but the county Justices had never levied rates on the borough. It
had been also shown that the expenses of maintaining and convict-
ing prisoners tried in the county had been levied and rated within the
borough, and under these circumstances the Court was of opinion that
there shonld be judgment for the defendants. There were some diffi-
culties in the case, but the Court had thought it right to adhere shortly
to the provisions of the Act of Parliament. By the 55 Geo. 111.
chap. 51, which authorised the making of fair and equal rates by
the Justices, it is provided, " That nothing in this Act contained
shall extend, or be construed to extend to give any jurisdiction to
the Justices of a county, over any place having a separate juris-
diction, and which, before the passing of this Act, was subject to
rates, or was exempt from the rates of the county in which such
places respectively lie." The Court is of opinion that the borough
of Malborough is within the provisions and meaning of this Act,
as it was a place having a separate jurisdiction, and was, before the
passing of this Act, subject to county rates imposed by its own
urisdiction.—Judgment for the defendants.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

At length the French Ministry have been formed of the same
materials, with the exception of two of its members, as that of the
old Cabinet, with the Duke of Treviso at its head ; but we doubt
much if he will be able to maintain himself.

The report of Lord Aberdeen being appointed as one of our Mi-
nisters caused a great sensation in Paris, and in consequence of
which the Rents receded.

We still continue without any further authentic information re-
specting the formation of the Tory Administration.
The Funds continue steady at the leaving off prices of yesterday.
Consols opened at 91ii.

HALF-PAST ONE.

We have no further arrivals ; but a private letter received from
Madrid this morning, of the 12th inst., states that no change of the
Ministry will take place.
The speech of Lord Durham at Newcastle engrosses the atten-
tion of the public, as well as our City politicians. Various are the
opinions formed of its contents. All parties agree that it exhibits
great talent, true logic, and warns the people of the evil day.
Consols continue firm at 914 for the Account, little doing.
