Commissioners PALGRAVE, ELLIS, and DRINKWATER
sat ag,in this moning, the affairs of the Haberdashers and
Merchant Tailors' Companies being those appointed for
investigation. As far as related to the former Company,
nothing whatever was done, Mr. Commissioner PALGRAVE
merely stating, that beyond a copy of their charter, its rulers
had, in a letter addressed to the Court of the Commission-
ers, declined supplying the Commissioners with any infor-
mation, and that, consequently, as regarded it, the inquiry
was to be considered as closed. Th other Company, the
Merchant Tailors', proved itself even still more uncomply-
ing to the desires of the Commissioners, inasmuch as it
would appear not to have taken any notice whatever of
their summons to attend. In the case of each Company,
according to the usual form, inquiry was made if any one
attended to give evidence. This call, in the case of the
Haberdashers' Company, proved abortive, but not so in
that of the Merchant Tailors' ; a Mr. Franks (a brother,
we believe), residing in Red-cross-street, undertaking to
give some valuable information relative to its affairs. Mr.
Franks was accordingly examined ; but, although a variety
of questions were proposed to him, not one scintilla of evi-
dence, directly or, indirectly relating to the subject-matter
of the inquiries, was elicited. The Commissioners took
copious notes of Mr. Franks's prepared statements ; but if
they can find in them no proof that Mr. Franks bears, for
some reason or other, an envious grudge towards the rulers
of the Company, and would willingly do them injury if it
were in his power, we give them credit for less ingenuity
than generally falls to the lot of mortals. By the desire of
Mr. Franks, the inquiries as regards the Merchant Tailors
was further adjourned until Monday next, when he pro-
mises to treat the Commissioners with a second edition
(with additions) of his important disclosures.

SOUTHWARK SESSIONS, OCT. 15.

CONSPIRACY TO BREAK OUT OF PRISON.

William Wynne, a respectable-looking young man, was
indicted for stealing a silver spoon, the property of Mr. Jas.
Ellis, his master and employer.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and in reply to the usual
question of what he had to say why sentence should not be
passed upon him, said -the reason he stole the article was to
pay for replacing a square of glass in a window which he
broke, and that he pledged the spoon, but intended to re-
deem it. He had been entrusted with considerable sums
of money, and that was his first offence.
The prosecutor admitted that he had entrusted the pri-
soner with considerable property, and that this was his first

offence.
The RECORDER addressed the prisoner upon the enor-
mity of his offence in robbing his employer, and hoped that
he would take warning for the future. He (the Recorder)
had, however, been given to understand that the prisoner
had been the means of preventing a conspiracy being effected
among the prisoners in the Borough Compter to force their
way out of confinement, and by that means he had probably
saved the lives of the Governor and the turnkeys. His
conduct, therefore, while in prison, had been highly praise-
worthy ; and, under all the circumstances, the Court would
only sentence him to one month's imprisonment.
After a short pause, Mr. Law, the Governor of the Bo•
rough Compter, was called, and asked if the prisoner had
been the means of preventing the conspiracy from being
completed ? Mr. Law answered in the affirmative.
The RECORDER had the prisoner again placed at the bar,
and ordered his sentence to be mitigated to one day's con-
finement in consequence of his good conduct, and also di-
rected that care should be taken that he suffered no an-
noyance from the other prisoners.
The conspiracy above alluded to was as follows :—A
plot had been concocted by eight of the prisoners to effect
their liberation, knowing that as most of them had been
convicted before, their next sentence would doubtless be
transportation. It was arranged that they should break
through the leads of one part of the prison, and then two
or three of them should return to the turnkey, knock him
down, and take the keys from him, when they could all with
ease effect their escape. The prisoner Wynne, however,
overheard the plot, and gave timely information of it so as
to prevent its being carried into execution.

The requisite notices have been given of an inten-
tion to apply to the Legislature for powers to erect a new
bridge across the Thames at Lambeth, from near the Old
Church to the Horseferry, at Millbank. The funds are to be
furnished by a joint-stock company.
The Garde National, in announcing the arrival at
Marseilles of the Baron de Meyerdorff, Chamberlain of the
Emperor of Russia, says—" The Baron has received from his
Government the mission to visit France to inquire into the
manufacturing and agricultural institutions, and all those that
may serve as models in Russia for the developement of instruc-
tion and the acceleration of industry."
London, England, 1834-10-16

tody on the 24th of September, and cautioned her not to
say anything to criminate herself.
This was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. Justice GASELEE addressing Mr. Clarkson, said he
thought the case made against the prisoner was but a
slight one.
The Jury acquitted the prisoner.
There was another indictment against the prisoner,
charging her with stealing fourteen yards of calico, the
property of the same prosecutrix.
Upon this indictment the Jury without the slightest he-
sitation found the prisoner guilty.
Mr. CLARKSON observed that it was proper for him now
to state that the prisoner had made a full confession of her
guilt.
Mr. Justice GASELEE told the prisoner it was one of the
worst cases he had ever witnessod, and that she might ex-
pect to leave the country for as long a period as the law
would allow.

PRACTICE OF THE COURT.

Mr. SIIARP this morning made an application to his
Honour for the purpose of receiving the assistance of the
Court, in consequence of some difficulties which had arisen
relative to the schedule of fees to be received by the Re-
gistrars and their clerks, which was appended to the new
orders lately issued by the three Judges, for the regulation
of the practice and proceedings of the Court of Chancery.
The question arose on the following clauses :—" For
every order on other petitions (i. e. not petitions or
motions of course), where the prayer is not granted, but a
reference is previously directed, and where the petition is
dismi,sed, 10s. For every other order on petitions, 2/."
In this case it was the usual practice to appoint a new
trustee, but the person who drew it being aware that a
reference was always granted in the first instance, had
prayed for such reference, which was granted by the
Court. If the prayer had been merely for the appoint-
ment oT a new trustee, and the Court had made an order
for reference, it would have come within both clauses, and
both charges would have been made.
His HONOUR said—l know nothing of the scale of fees.
I never saw them. I understood that they had been
approved of by the officers of the Court and the Lord
Chancellor, and I signed the orders without having seen
the table of fees.

Mr. Fry, the registrar, stated that two lists of fees had
been sent to the office, and the registrars had considered
it necessary to make several alterations, but they had
not been attended to. The schedule, which they had
approved of and delivered to Mr. Vizard, had been a very
different one. There were, besides, several words left out
which made a most material difference from what had
been intended.

Mr. PErtmaToN observed that they had occasioned,
universally, a great deal of dissatisfaction.
Mr. LOVATT said the new orders would occasion a
great deal more expense to suitors than under the former
system.
The MASTER of the ROLLS repeated his observation
that he bad signed the orders without hiving particularly
looked into the schedule of fees on the representation and
belief that it had been approved of by the Lord Chancellor
and the officers of the Court. The hest way of removing
the difficulties that were felt would be to make an applica-
tion to the Lord Chancellor on the subject.
Mr. SHARP replied that as the petition in respect of
which the question arose Lad come before his Honour,
he was consequently induced to make the present applica-
tion to him and not before the Lord Chancellor.

DUTCH PAPERS.

THE HAGUE, JAN. 22.—A letter from Zealand of the
19th inst. says:—" The fine Antwerp merchantman, the
Schinmdpenninck, Capt. Aleulenhock, has arrived to-day
from Antwerp in the harbour of F'ushing, in order to be
freighted under the Dutch flag and to sail to Java.
THE HAGUE, JAN. 23.—A letter from Nimeguen of
the 21st says :—" The hope that the water would con-
tinue to fall has not been realized fer the Waal has been
rising again since yesterday morning : we learn that the
same is the case with the Meuse.

It is said that the men_of-war now lying in the docks at
Flushing will leave that place at the end of February and
resume their respective stations on the Scheldt.
HAARLEM, JAN. 24.—1 n consequence of fresh storms
fron► the west, the water in the rivers has again been
rising for these two days past. At Alegen, in North
Brabant, the damage done by the high tides and the
storms at the beginning of the month is very great. Of
286 houses, 184 were inundated to the depth of nearly
three feet, so tbat most of them are very much injured,
and some entirely destroyed.
In the political world every thing is in a state of stag-
nation; the Conferences at London are not resumed, and
will not be till the German Diet has given its consent
to the entire or partial cession of Luxemburg. Mean-
time this assent cannot lead to any result at present,
because the matter will he discussed in the Ministerial
Congress at Vienna. All eyes are turned on the journey
of the Prince of Orange to St. Peteraburgh, who is not
expected back before the month of March. Till that time
nothing of importance can be looked for. It is probable
that the result of the Conference at Vienna will he known
at the opening of the Assembly of the States General in
April.

BRIGHTON, JAN. 29.

In the forenoon of yesterday his Majesty, accompanied

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, JAN. 29.

BLACKBURNE V. CURTIS.

Mr. BARsTOW showed cause on the part of the
defendant against a rule for a new trial in this case,
which was flied before the Under Sheriff, when
there was a verdict for the defendant. It was an
action to recover 71. 75., the amount of an attor-
rey's bill ; and to prove the plaintiff's case his
brother was examined, when, after a long examina-
tion, cross-examination, and re-examination, it was
mutually agreed between the parties that the evi-
dence of the witness should be submitted to the jury,
with a direction to them that if they were satisfied
with it, they were to intimate their opinion to the
Court, and the merits of the case could be then gone
into; but if they did not believe the evidence, then
that they should find a verdict for the defendant.
The jury were not satisfied with the evidence,
and found a verdict for the defendant.
Rule fur new trial absolute.

THE KINQ V. EVE.

Sir JAMES ScAuLErrmo;edfo;aCriminal information
against John Pritchard Eve, Editor of the Satirist, for a
libel on Lord Charles Wellesley, a Major in the Ist Foot
Guards. The libel was published in that journal on the
23.1 of last June, and purported to give a history of a
very disgraceful scene at Windsor during the Ascot races,
in which the noble complainant took a conspicuous
part; it charged the whole party with getting drunk,
and beating some persons in the streets of Windsor, and
expressed a hope that they would be punished. The
affidavit of the Noble Complainant denied all participation
in, or even a knowledge of, any transaction of the kind
alluded to, and distinctly accounted for the manner in
which he passed his time during the race week.
To some inquiries by the Court, the learned Counsel
stated that Lord C. Welles'ey had information of the
publication, but in consequence of his then preparing to
go abroad, his going there in September, and not being able
to return until a week ago, he was not able to make an
affidavit until now.
The COURT were of opinion that the Noble Lord had
allowed too great a length of time to elapse, for be might
have made the affidavit before he went abroad, and the
application should have been more promptly made.
London, England, 1834-01-30

THE ICING V. GEORGE BATLEY.

The defendant, who had been tried at the last sittings at
Guildhall, and found guilty on an indictment, charging
him, as master of the ship Hebe, with wilfully and un-
lawfully leaving two of his crew, viz., Isaac Ponsonby and
Robert Hayne, on sbore at Buenos Ayres, and refusing to
bring them back to England, appeared in Court to receive
judgment. . . _ _

The defendant, in mitigation of punishment, stated that
he had no intention of leaving the men on shore, but having
sent them in a bolt to perform a particular duty, and,
finding they did not return for 24 hours, he was obliged
to take two others in their stead, upon which he felt be
was justified in refusing to receive the other two, because
otherwise he should have more men than was necessary.
He threw himself entirely on the mercy of the Court.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in reply, said there was no
desire to press harshly against the defendant; hut the Act
upon which the indictment was framed, was passed in
order to protect a very meritorious class of men, and to
compel a captain to bring back to England those men
whom he took on board. - The two men whom the
defendant refused to receive, and bring home, were
proved to have been forced out to sea, by stress
of weather, and, upon being picked up, by a
French vessel and brought back to Buenos Ayres, they
immediately offered themselves to the defendant, who re-
fused to receive them, and engaged two others in their
stead. That was the whole substance of the case.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE observed that the Act re-
quired the master of a vessel to bring home all such men
whom he took out, as should be in a condition to return
when the vessel was ready for sea, and when the mister
required their services. Upon looking at the indictment,
he found the words of the Act were not strictly followed.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL argued that the indictment
sufficiently followed the Act of Parliament.
The LORD Costar JUSTICE put it to the learned
Counsel whether, as there were many palliative circum-
stances in the case, it would not be better to let the de-
fendant go at large, on his own recognizances to appear
and receive judgment when called on. The absence of
the two men was not very cleatly accounted for, and it
must have put the defendant to considerable embarrassment.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL was willing to adopt any
suggestion from the Court, but he thought there was no
reason to discredit the evidence of the two men.
The defendant, by order of the Court, entered into his
own recognisance of 1001 , and was set at liberty.
London, England, 1834-01-30

THE NEW FEES.

Mr. SHARPE was instructed to apply to his Lordship
respecting a difficulty that had taken place in the Regis
trar's-office, upon the subject of the newly regulated scale
of fees; and, indeed, he came to his Lordship in con-
sequence of a direction to that effect, given by the
Master of the Rolls. By the new regulations, if
a petition be presented, praying, for instance, for
the appointment of a trustee, and a reference (as it would
of course be) were directed, then a fee of 10s. would be
payable to the Registrar, and in all other cases a fee of 21.
In this case the petition prayed directly for the reference,
and therefore the Registrars claimed the larger fee, which
the party applying submitted they were not entitled to.
The LORD CHANCELLOR promise I to look into and
consider it.
ROBERTSON V. LORD LONDONDERRY.
The part-heard arguments were resumed.

ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

Besides, the Court did not think that the article affected
bis Lordship's honour.
The rule was therefore refused.
THE KING V. HERNAINIAN's

Sir JAMES Scam. Err showed cause against a rule
which had been obtained by the Solicitor-General, calling
on the defendant, as the proprietor of the Newcastle Journal,
to show cause why a criminal information should not issue
against him for publishing a libel upon the Earl of Durl am.
The rule had been obtained on the affidavits of the Nob'e,
Lord, and of a person named Davis, who was mate of his
Lordship's yacht the Louisa ; the libel was published on
the 28th of Novemb,r last, and stated that the Louisa
was then at anchor in the Tyne, with the tricolor of
France flying at the mast head ; that it bad excited the in-
dignatiolof hundreds of brave seamen who had fought their
country's battles during the last war, and that they vented
their curses loud and deep. It then referred to his Lord-
ship's having insulted hia King and the Royal N ivy by
having, while his vessel and the rest of the Royal
Yacht squadron were in Cherbourg harbour, hoisted a
flag hearing his own arms over the national flag of
England. Those statements were denied by Lord Durham
and his mate, but the master of the vessel had made no
affidavit. The Learned Counsel, at considerable length,
went through all the facts disclosed in those affidavits,
and then produced a number of affidavits of persons resid-
ing at Shields and Cherbourg, in support of the material
facts named in the paragraph, and contended that the rule
should be discharged.
The-Soticrrox-GENERAL addressed the Court in sup.
port of the rule.
The length of the speeches and the lateness of the hour
prevent our giving a more detailed report.
The case was not over when our reporter left.
London, England, 1834-01-30

RE BURNELL. A LUNATIC.

Mr. \VHITMARSH renewed his application that the
Court would be pleased to direct, the lunatic's sole brother
having been approved of as the committee of the person
and the property, that the securities be dispensed with, and
that the Bank of England do transfer' into Court 1,500/.
three per cents., which was the amount of the lunatic's
fortune, and which yielded about 45/. a year. The object
in dispensing with the securities and the grant was to save
expense.
The Loan CHANCELLOR, after examining the Act
of Parliament, and looking carefully at the petition,
made the order in consideration of the smallness of the
property, and the brother having been at very consider-
able expense already in cueing out the Commission, and
in taking care of and maintaining both the lunatic and
her daughter, a girl of 16 years of age.

DARE V. FLETCHER.
Mr. KINDERSLEY applied for leave to have this case
put into the paper for some early morning, to be spoken
to upon the question, whether two or three words should
stand a part of the Court's order.
Mr. KNIGHT wished to know whether the words were
" allowed in account?"

Mr. KINDERSLEY replied in the affirmative.
Mr. KNIGHT could assure the Court that that question
would open the whole argument.
Mr. KINDEESLEY had no idea how that could be. He
pledged himself that as far as he was concerned all he bad
to say would be stated in few words.
The LORD CHANCELLOR gave leave for it to be in the
paper on Saturday.

NEWMAN V. GODDARD.

This was an action tried before the Under. Sheriff. On
a former day a rule Nisi was obtained by Mr. C. Jones
to set aside the verdict, which was for the plaintiff.
Mr. LLOYD this morning showed cause against the
rule. It appeared that the wife of the plaintiff had served
with the defendant as cook,, while he was landlord of the
Crown at Hounslow, and the action was brought by her
husband, who had married her at a subsequent period,
for her wages. The defendant, on the other band, s,id
the female came to Hounslow to look after some proprty,
and being in a very destitute state, be took her in out of
charity, and never meant her for a servant. On the trial
it further appeared that the female in question had, in the
year 1820, been m ailed to a man named Pellew, her
former husband being dead. Pellew's family resided at
Canterbury. He went abroad to avoid a criminal prose-
cution ; and in 1826, when she visited hia relation., she
found them all in mourning, and on inquiry was informed
that it was for her husband, who had been living at Gi-
braltar. In 1832, believing such to be the case, she was
again married to the plaintiff.
The COURT said it was not usual on such occasions for
the family to go into mourning, which was further pub-
lishing of the matter. They did not think the death of
the former husband was sufficiently proved, and therefore
the rule must be discharged.

The following gentlemen were yesterday called
to the degree of barrister-at-lAw, by the Honourable So•
ciety of Gray's Inn:—John Liwrence Tatham,
Thomas Hudson, Esq., John Bolin, Esq., and Thomas

MA RYLEBONE.

Yesterday Mr. Balcombe, an extensive builder, re-
siding at 21, Upper Berkeley-street West, Connaught-
square, applied to Mr. HOSKINS for his advice and as-
sistance in consequence of a " strike " having taken
place among his workmen under the following extra-
ordinary circumstances
Mr. Balcombe stated that he employed about sixty
men, and on Tuesday fortnight he had a few words
with his foreman (Browning) in town, to whom he
gave notice to leave on the following Saturday.
Browning went on very well until the evening of his
departure, when he cleared away all his tools, and ex-
cited the workmen against applicant. On the next
Monday the men, about twenty in number, refused to
work, unless he (Mr. Balcombe) would continue to
employ Browning. This he refused to do, and the
men, with the exception of one, accordingly left his
premises, without any previous notice, by which means
be (applicant) had been very seriously inconvenienced.
This proceeding, however, was not sufficient to appease
their revenge, for they went down to South Mimms,
where applicant had forty men engaged repairing Cap-
tain Trotter's residence, at Durham Park, and actu-
ally induced every man to leave his work.
After some conversation between the Magistrates
Anti Mr. Balcombe, summonses were issued against
four of the men and this day is appointed for the in-
vestigation of the case.
London, England, 1834-05-07

any man dare to get up in parliament and tell the
country that there was to be no inquiry even now
into the grounds or pretexts on which such an in-
come had been alienated—that the thing was past—
that the right was " vested"—and that the circum-
stances should not be inquired into, because in no case
could the money be recalled ? This example will be
ridiculed as a monstrous one, and so it is ; but why?
for the amount only of the sum adduced as an
illustration of the argument ; but how, in the name
of Heaven, does that affect the principle of the ques-
tion in dispute ? No money, not one farthing, save
only that contained in the privy purse of the King,
can be disposed of but by the advice of a Minister,
responsible to Parliament ; and on that one consti-
tutional maxim we take our stand against the frank
pertinacity of Lord Althorp, Mr. Stanley's false
assimilation of a King's revenue to the income of a
private gentleman, and Sir Robert Peel's overbear-
ing parade of acts of parliament, which had nothing
to do with the matter. The amount of the pension
list was the only thing guaranteed to the Sovereign
—the people's lawful security, for the detailed ap-
plication of the fund, cannot be justly questioned ;
much less can it be superseded by a mere vote of
the House of Commons. And all for what has the
late disappointment been inflicted on all independent
Englishmen ? For nothing, but that the Tories
might stalk up and down St. James's-street, boast-
ing that in the breath of their nostrils is the political
life or extinction of Lord Grey and his heteroge-
neous Cabinet !—Tinzes.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-.(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings at Nisi Frills, before Mr. Baron PARKER, and s
London Jury.)
TIMOTHY V. SIMPSON.
This was an action for false imprisonment. The case excited
very considerable attention, when the parties were before
the Lord Mayor.
The plaintiff was passing the shop of the defendant in 131"
shopgate-street, on the 27th of December last, when
dress in the window ticketed cat ss. lid. attracted 11;5
attention ; he sent his clerk in for it, but he was asked 7s. 6!ik
which he would not give, and he was refused it. Plaintiff
then went in and demanded it, and on being also re-
fused, said that it was a piece of gross imposition. plain-
tiff's young men then began to abuse him, and on his refusing
to leave the shop, they, in number nine or ten, fell upon hinl,
and beat him very severely. The defendant came from uP
stairs, at that time plaintiff was on the ground, two holding
him and five trashing; him. He sent for a policeman and gore
plaintiff' into custody. When they got to the station-house
the case was dismissed, and for that imprisonment the action
was brought.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 15/. upoll
one count ; and, on the other counts, under his Lordslulfg
direction, for the defendant. The plaintiff got liberty to move
the Court above to have a verdict entered generally for him.

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO GERMANY.--The
Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, upon receiving information
from Lord Denbigh, the Queen's Chamberlain, that her Ma'
jesty would embark on Saturday next, at Greenwich, in order
to pay a visit to her native country, gave orders for the pre"
paration of the state barge, and sent round to the several citl
companies notice of his intention to attend her Majesty, n'4
Conservator of the river Thames, as far as his jurisdictio.ll
reaches. The invitation was most gladly received, and it 14
believed that those companies which have not barges will hiresteamers, for the purpose of doing honour to the Queen;
The Lord Mayor sent invitations to 5644 of the nobility,
the aldermen and their ladies, and to I,ervQral of the corpor,s;
tion, and his private friends, and will embark early on tiles
morning of Saturday in the state barge, in which he purposer
to be towed down by the Magnet steam-vessel, to precede
Majesty to the boundaries of his jurisdiction. A spice I t
dinner will be given by his lordship on board. A grelie
number of steam-vessels have already been engaged for th
occasion, and it is expected that one of the most brilliant (I)o,
plays ever witnessed will take place.
