NEW v. JONES.

His LORDSHIP gave judgment in this case. He
said the sole question to be decided was, whether or
not a solicitor who was an executor or trustee was
entitled to be paid his bill of costs for business done
by him as an attorney, he being also an executor.
Now, there was no point more clearly established as
a general question by the cases referred to of
" Robinson v. Pott," and the other decisions, than
that an executor or trustee was not entitled to be
paid for his trouble. If the accounts of the deceased
were complicated, and he took upon himself to settle
and arrange those accounts, although it might take
up much of his time and attention, the principle of
equity was, that he was not entitled to compensa-
tion for his time and trouble ; if he chose to employ
an accountant to settle these accounts, for the ex-
penses so occasioned he was entitled to be remu-
nerated out of the estate. The principle was this—
it was the duty of an executor and a trustee to be
the guardian of the estate, and to watch over the in-
terests of the estate committed to his charge. Hire
was allowed to perform the duties of the estate, and
was allowed to claim compensation for his services, his
interest would then be opposed to his duty, and as
a matter of prudence, the Court did not allow the
executor or trustee to place himself in that situa-
tion. He (Lord Lyndhurst) was of opinion that
the principle applied as strongly to the case of an
attorney as to that of any other person; for if an
attorney, who is an executor, performs business that
was necessary to be transacted, if this attorney,
being an executor, performs those duties himself, he
(his Lordship) was of opinion that be was not en-
titled to be repaid for the performance of those
duties. In point of prudence and propriety, and as
a guard over the estate, he was of opinion that it
would not be proper that a solicitor who was trustee
should be distinguished from an ordinary trustee.
If a trustee, who was a solicitor, acted as a solicitor,
he was not entitled to charge for his labour—he
was only entitled to be paid his costs out of pocket.
This rule applied to the present case.

UNION-HALL.

Yesterday an elderly and respectable-looking-
fmemana,le:cwcoanitiepdanoinedimbyr acnnAitmaßerEeßssti,ngal-ildoohkainngdedyoinunag
printed bill, to which he called the Magistrate's at-
tention. It was worded thus :—" Elopement. Left
her father's residence, on Tuesday morning, August
the 6th, about nine o'clock, Miss Elizabeth Tyrrell,
twenty years of age, about five feet four inches
high, rather stout made, roundish full face, of a
florid complexion, light eyes, and brown hair. Had
on when she left home, a dark brown merino frock,
black silk shawl with a very narrow border, green
and white speckled straw bonnet, white stockings,
black leather slippers and sandals. Any informa-
tion that may lead to the discovery of her, given at
the police-station, Waterloo-road, will be duly ac-
knowledged by her disconsolate father."
Mr. CHAMBERS having perused the bill, the appli-
cant then said that it referred to his daughter, the
young lady standing by his side, and that it was she
who had caused him such anguish of mind in conse-
quence of her having eloped from home.
Mr. CHAMBERS—I suppose she was glad to re-
turn home again, after having absented herself with-
out the knowledge of her friends ? Applicant--
She did not return home of her own accord, I am
sorry to say. I met her by mere accident in the
Borough this morning; she endeavoured to conceal
herself from my view and to get away, but I pre-
vented her, and gave her into the custody of a po-
liceman, and brought her here.
Mr. CHAMBERS—I think you would have acted
more properly if you had taken her home at once ;
where was the use in bringing her here? Appli-

t 661
cant—My object in doing so was to request t hinods
might be detained here in custody until I 610
some arrangement which would prevent n rePe
of the elopement. been
Mr. CHAMBERS inquired whether she hniont
induced to leave home by a man ? The aPPdher
was not aware with whom she had abandOe4l3
home; he was confident, however, that she rhecis
not return again, and his object was to place'
some security. iste'
Mr. CHAMBERS, turning to the young ladytPed
out the serious consequences attendant upon r
conduct as that which she had pursued on tbstreot
casion, and advised her to accompany her 2i 0°
home. The young lady, however, exhibited ill
disposition to return to her father's dwelling,
that the treatment she received did not su'l
and that she should find another home.
The applicant then withdrew from the tO
leading his daughter out by the arm, she °t o,
same time evincing considerable unwillingnes"
depart with him.

THE AMATEUR MATCH.

We are unable to give the particulars of the Amateur
Oars Match for the Silver Cups in consequence of the
names being withheld by the desire of the competitors.
The match was won by Cook and Lake, who did the dis-
tance from Westnin+ter to Putney in 36 minutes.

There were no less than five oyster boats
yesterday at Hungerfurd-market, the whole of which
" cleared out," the prices being 9s. and 10s. per bushel.
Pullets ready dressed sold at 2+. each : in fact, the
butchers, tripe and fruit-dealers, ticketed their respective
commodities on equally reasonable terms. The ferry from
Natal, o-bridge to the market is, in future, to be regularly
worked on the Sunday, a+ well as the week days.
THE HARVEST.—The corn fields in this
neighbourhood now pretty generally present an animateii
and delightful scene. Tile husbandman is actively em-
ployed, early and late, in availing himself of the advantage
which the present delightful weather affords for securim:
the fruit of his anxious toil. We are happy in b ing
to add, that the produce around us appears generally ti
have escaped the casualties which seem, by the agrieultura
report of the past month, to have visited other district-
reducing the estimate of returns below that of avarag,
crop+. From all we can learn, the produce is universally
good in this district.,sherborne Journal.

OXFORD ELECTION.

On our return we found

3lr. H. HUGHES moving for a "return of the number
of electors enrolled in the register for the city of Oxford
as entitled to vote under the 2d of William IV., chap. 45,
at the last general election. and the election in March
last, distinguishing the number of freemen and house-
holders ; also the number of voters who polled at each of
the said elections ; and copies of accounts of expenses in-
curred and made at each of the said elections by the re-
turning officer, under section 71 of the said Act, and
charged to the candidates, with the items of the charge,
stating the number of candidates at each election, the num-
ber of booths or polling places, and the amount paid or
piyable by each candidate in respect of each election.
After a few words from Lord J. RUSSELL, Mr. H.
Hu G nEs, and Sir S. WitALLEv., the motion was
agreed to.

RAILWAYS ANT) STEAM-VESSELS.

RAILWAY SPEED —At a Meeting of tile British
Association, Professor Farish addressed the assembly
~ the subject of the formation of railways and
sieinn-engines. He observed that on the railway
from Liverpool to Manchester the steam-engine
travelled about twenty miles an hour; now he would
double that rate, and travel forty miles an hone,
which, he contended, might be accomplished without
increasing danger; and if the power was thus in-
creased, the expense or raising causeways and
making viaducts to bring the road level might be
saved, as the engines would be capable of mounting
the highest hill.
The London and Birmingham Railway is at length
commenced, excavations, being now going on in the
fields between London and Hampstead, and the
whole undertaking will be doubtless completed in
less time than it has taken to get the Act of Par-
liament. For the first twenty miles of its course the
railway is intended to follow the track of the Grand
Junction Canal; but at Boxmore it will diverge,
and rake the course of the River Gade by Herm I
Hempstead and the vale of Goddesden, instead c 7
that of the Balbourne, by Berkhampstead and Tring.
The Greenwich railway has also been begun,
and sanguine expectations are entertained that it
will be ready by the next Easter fair. It has been
proposed to extend the line to Dover.
It is said that the Crediton and Exeter railway
will be proceeded with immediately.
A steam-vessel of fifty-horse power has lately
been launched at Vienna. This vessel is destined
to navigate the Danube, and supply the capital with
cattle from Hungary.

A steam communication is about to be established
between London, Plymouth, Curk, and Liverpool,
thereby insuring a certain and expeditions convey-
ance for both goods and passengers, which will, no
doubt, prove very advantageous to the interests of
both countries.

The steam ferry-boat intended to ply betwmi
Devonport and Torpoint will very shortly be com-
pleted. The chains are one mile and a quarter in
length, and of excellent workmanship.

BOOKSELLERS AND AUTHORS.-It is an
old remark, that publishers drink wine out of the skullst.f
authors. On one occ,teion, the person who pens this para-
graph overheard a learned antiquary twitting the late Mr.
CONSTABLE with the above proverb, and laughing heartily
to boot at his imaginary triumph. But the bibliopole re-
torted by alluding to HoRNE TOOKE'S pleading before a
Court of law, when pressed by some inexorable creditor—
" that even his very head might be said to be mortgaged
in consequence of advances made to him by the book-
sellers." " A head mortgaged !" said the astonished Judge,
" that's the strangest security I ever heard of." " True
enough," said the other drily, " and probably instances of
the kind are rare, for I as.ure you, my Lord, it is not
every head that will mortgage."—Dumfries Courier.
THE GERMAN WOOL FAIRS.-LEIPSIC,
JULY, 1833.—The result of the German wool fairs has
proved more advantageous to the growers than could have
been anticipated, though it was generally expected that
prices would be considerably higher than last year. The
first fairs, viz , Breslaw, &c., were comparatively the
cheapest, but the more it was manifested decidedly that
the actual want of wool did rather surmount the quantity
produced, prices went higher, so that at the last fairs a
rise of 30 to 40 per cent, on last year's prices took place.
This present moment there is scarcely anything left in the
first hand, and even the stock in the hands of the dealers
is much smaller than we recollect having seen it at any
former period. In fact, the flower of the wool has
already found its way either to the hands of our ma-
nufacturers, or is gone to the English market, so that
very little good wool can be farther expected from this
quarter. The consumption of wool in G,rmany and the
Netherlands has increased amazingly, and we safely say,
that at the very utmost, only one-fourth of the wool
produced in Germany is exported to England. The
German manufacturers go on very briskly, the number of
looms increases daily, and if they continue to proceed
so for a few years, they will be able to consume the whole
produce of German wool, without being obliged to have
recourse to the English market. The manufacture of
woollen yarn bad been quite neglected, but within the
last few years it has been very much cultivated, and hair
made such a rapid progress, that there are now worsted
yarn spinners in Germany, who consume 30,000 to
40,000 cwt. a-year ; combing wool is therefore very
much looked after, and there will be a defic,ency in the
quantity imported into England. Things have changed
now, and instead, as at former times, the English being
the rulers at the German wool fairs, the German and
Belgian manufacturers are now predominant and pick the
flower of the wool, as they are able to afford higher prices
than the iEngiish buyers.—(Whoever wants good fleece
wools will do well to avail himself of the choice the first
arrival bought at the fairs affords, as we are sure the sup-
plies which may be shipped later, can only consist of in-
ferior qualities. )....Leeds Times.

TO THE WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT ELEC-
TORS OF THE CITY OF LONDON.

GENTLEMEN,
AVACANCY in the Representation of this
City having been occasioned by the lamented death
of Mr. Alderman Waithman, I beg leave most respectfully
' to announce to you, that having been strongly urged by
my friends, it is my intention again to present myself to
your notice.
Although I came forward at the last Election under the
di advantage of a great limber of the Electors having
previously promised their support to the other candidates,
the votes recorded in my favour were, nevertheless, up-
wards of 5,000, being nearly half of the whole number
which were polled.
Trusting, therefore, that nothing has since occurred to
alter your favourable opinion, I have the utmost con&
*fence that, by your kind support, I shall attain the object
of my highest ambition. I have the honour to be, with
the utmost respect,

Gentlemen, your obedient and very faithful Servan

GEORGE LYALL.

IRISH VAGRANTS.

Mrs PALMER begged to put a question to the
Right Honourable Gentleman opposite (Mr. Lamb)
which was of great importance to the county which
he represented (Berks), and to many others. The
Right Honourable Gentleman would recollect that
about twelve months ago a memorial had been presented
from that county, as to the ,ettlement of the Irish va-
grants, and he (Mr. Palmer) wished ta know if any steps
had been taken to alter the law, and thereby relieve the
counties from such a heavy burden.
Mr. LAMB had no hesitation in informing the
House, that that one memorial, and others upon the same
subject, had been under the consideration of Government,
who thought the best way was to instruct the Commis-
sioners who were now inquiring into the Poor Laws, to
extend their inquiries upon that subject. That was the
state in which the case was at present, the Commissioners
not having yet made their report.
Mr. PALMER was glad to find the Memorial was in
the hands of the Commissioners, and was satisfied to take
no step upon the subject, until they should make their
report.

Mr. O'CONNELL said that in consequence of the im-
portance of the adjourned debate on the address, and the
necessity of getting it finished, he would, with the per-
mission of the House, postpone his motion for leave to
bring in a Bill to abolish the Vestry Ce,s in Ireland till
Tuesday, the 19th inst.
Lord ALTHORP was of opinion that it would be better
at once to go on with the adjourned debate, and postpone
the Ses:ional Orders which stood for to-night till Monday
next, he thought it would be more convenient and hoped
it would meet with the approbation of the House.—
Agreed to.

THE UNITED SERVICE GAZETTE,
and NAVAL and MILITARY CHRONICLE.
Public attention is invited to a statement which, with
the Prospectus of this journal, may be had of all booksellers
and newsmen, detailing the circumstances of an unprinci-
pled attempt on the part of a certain i.bbing bookseller to
appropriate to himself the title of the UNITED SER-
VICE GAZETTE. Not daring to persevere in his first
intention of appropi,ting the name of the UNITED
SERVICE GAZETTE, as it stands in the advertisements,
he has copied it with just so much variation as will, he
thinks, protect him from legal consequences. The pro-
prietor trusts that the laws are strong enough to defend him
against this species of fraud ; and, if not, he feels confident
that public opinion will supply their inadequacy, the mo-
ment the facts are fully known.

DOVER, JUNE 6.

The Dutch vessels that have been seven months
embargoed here sailed this day. The Hustilling, Captain
de Jouge, for Middelbure ; the Zeelast, Captain Akkuruan,
for Amsterdam ; the Catharina, Captain Molder, for
Rotterdam. The demand for marshal's fees, light money,
and port charges, has been abandoned.

The piers were thronged with spectators, and cheered
heartily each ves'el as she quitted the port, which the
Dutchmen returned, evidently much gratified by the good
feeling that was manifested towards them.

DUTCH PAPERS.

THE HAGUE, JUNE 2.—By two Royal Resolutions of
the Ist inst. it is ordered that the Convention of the 21st
of May between the Netherlands, Great Britain, and
France shall be inserted in the Stoats Courant (the offi-
cial J our nal), and that in consequence of the first Article
of that Convention, the ratifications of which were ex-
changed at London on the 29th of May, the second Ar-
ticle of the Resolution of the 16th of November, 1832,
against the admission of the French and English ships, is
declared of no effect.

As soon as the news of the taking (,ff of the embargo
was received at Rotterdam a ship, belonging to M. Van
Hoboken, bound to the East Indies, left that port to pro-
ceed to Batavia, and will soon be followed by a second.
In England the embargo was taken off immediately on the
exchange of the ratifications, and ships sailed for our
ports. It seems that two or three English ships have
already appeared off the Meuse, but as they could nut be
admitted they stood out to sea, and will return in two or
three days.

We lear❑ that our soldiers now prisoners in France will
he shortly embarked at Dunkirk for Rotterdam, in which
last city preparations are already making to receive them.
They have received orders to hold themselves in readiness
for their voyage.
Desertion is daily making among the Belgians on the
frontiers of Dutch Flanders. Last week no fewer than
14 from the four or five districts of the province were con-
ducted to Flushing:
BREDA, JUNE 2.—Ten Belgian deserters came over the
day before yesterday. Seven of them belong to the yagers
of Capiaumorel.
Boss LE Duc, JUNE 2. —After the Minister had made
the communication to the Chambers relative to the con-
vention of the 21st of May,
The President, in the name of the Chamber, re-
turned thanks for this communication, and requested his
Excellency to express the gratitude of the Chamber to his
Majesty the King.
" May this treaty," said the President, " be speedily
followed by the definitive treaty, which is the object of the
general wish. May the King and the people find in it the
eward of the noble perseverance whch they have hitherto
.tisplayed for the innumerable sacrifices they have made in
defence of our dear country. May the statesmen now
present thereby see the seal put to his unwearied exertions ;

that if they took away this punishment, and substituted
no other certain mode of maintaining the discipline of the
army, they might rep,nt too late the error they had com-
mitted—they might find that error when they had no
longer the power to retract it—and would regret in vain
the precipitancy of which reason had at length convinced
them that they had been guilty.—(Hear, hear.)

- ,
Sir R. FERGUSON said, that he was an enemy to
corporal punishment in the army, hut thought that the
power to inflict it ought not to be abolished. If it were,
the army would he disorganized. In certain cases—such
as mutiny, and striking an officer, or actual disobedience,
which he called mutiny—it ou!ht to be inflicted ; and in the
case of stealing from his comrades, a man should he sub-
ject to he sent out of the country by a courtmartal. To
adopt the amendment of the Hon. Member for Middlesex
would be most unjust. If a man was twenty years in
service in the line, he did not spend mote than four of
those twenty years in this country. He could not vote
with the Hon. Member, who, by the motion, placed hitri
in an awkward situation ; and be would not vote agiinst
him.—(Question.)
Mr. ROTCH spoke a few sentences amidst so much
noise, that it was impossible to ascertain correctly what
he said. He could not understand why the Ministers
should have asked for money to build sllitrry cells in all
the barracks in the country, if they did not mean to use
them. He knew from long experience, that solitary con-
finement was more efficacious to prevent crimes than
flogging.—The House was so impatient, that the lion.
Gentleman sat down without stating whether he would
or would not support the amendment. We believe he was
in favour of it.—( Loud calls of " Question.")
Sir F. BURDETT signified his intention to move an
amendment on the amendment of the Hon. Member for
Middlesex. He would move, " That flogging should not
be applied under the Mutiny Act, except in eases of open
mutiny, thi,ving, and drunkenness o❑ guard."
Mr. HUME was understood to say, that he would not
object to the suggestion of the Hon. Baronet, as the corn_
mencement of a good change. No person justified flog-
ging except as a matter of necessity ; and if there was
no necessity for it in any one point, it ought to be altered
on that point. He would accede to the proposition of the
Hon. Baronet -,--(Loud calls of " Question.")
The House then divided on Mr. Hume's amendment,
altered as suggested by Sir Francis Burdett :

Ayes
Noes l5l
Majority for Ministers -11

The report was then agreed to.
Mr. HUME, it was understood, then gave notice that
he should ag lin take the s.•owe of the House on the subject
on the third reading of the Bill.
Mr. HU.IE begged to observe that he did not intend
to follow up the question which had that n ght b:•en under
consiheration. He hoped thit the indication would he
duly appreciated ; and having confidence in that hope. he
should not press the Government further upon the subject.
The other orders of the day were disposed of, and the
House adjourned at a quarter before one.
