COURT OF CHANCERY.--(THIS DAY.)

ROBERTSON V. LORD LONDONDERRY.

Sir EDWARD SuonEN stated that his client, Mr. Ro-
bertson, had made an affidavit which stated that he had
communicated to the solicitors of the defendants the sug-
gestions of compromise that had fallen from his lordship.
The affidavit set forth the letters which had been written
by or on behalf of the plaintiff, and also the letters received
by him, declining to enter into the negotiation of an ac-
commodation which he had tendered his willingness to
enter into, which affidavit should be handed to the Court.
Mr. KNIGHT did not understand that any thing which
had fallen from his Lordship was meant to apply to his
client Colonel Bradyl.
The LORD CHANCELLOR intended it to apply to Lord
Londonderry.
Mr. KNIGHT added that if it had, as counsel for Colonel
Bradyl, he would at the bar have declined any offer of ac-
commodation.

The LORD CHANCELLOR desired a copy of the affidavit,
in the first place, to be handed to the other side.
Sir W. HORNE soon afterwards entered the court, and
expressed his regret that he should have been absent when
the case was mentioned. No notice of an intention to
mention it this morning had been given, otherwise he would
have been in his place at the sitting of the court.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he had desired Sir
W. Horne's clients to be furnished with a copy of the
affidavit.

Sir W. HORNE had to object to the affidavit altogether.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—But you may look at the
affidavit first.

Sir W. HORNE said the affidavit related to a compromise
between the parties, had nothing to do with the proceedings
before the court, and was altogether extra-judicial.
The Loan CHANCELLOR—I have desired them to.show
you the affidavit.
Sir W. HORNE understood that it was to be handed to
the court.

The LORD CHANCELLOR—On the contrary, I desired
it to be handed to you.
Sir W. HORNE could not conceive how such an affidavit
could be handed to the Court at all.

The LORD CHANCELLOR—But surely you can look at
it. There's no plague in the affidavit. It can do you no
harm to look at it !
Sir W. HORNE objected to it altogether.
The LORD CHANCELLOR But you can look at it
first, and then will be your time to make any objection
to it.

Sir W. HORNE was content, provided the court had
made no order.

The LORD CHANCELLOR—No, no, I have made no
order.

IN RE STUBS, A LUNATIC

Mr. WRIGHT applied in this matter in which a commis-
sion of lunacy had issued for five days of the extension of
time within which the commission was to be executed that
it might be ordered to be executed at Hungerford, that the
lunatic or petitioner on his behalf might have notice of the
trial when it would be executed, and that the trustee, Mr.
Williams, might advance 2001. to enable the supposed
lunatic to defend himself against the finding of the jury and
the continuance of the proceedings.
Mr. GARRArr opposed the application. His client, the
trustee, objected to advance the money, and hoped any di-
rection to open the commission might be delayed at least
three months, by which time gentlemen from the bar
would be in the country • and the expense, therefore, of
taking them down specially would be avoided.
The Loan CHANCELLOR said, that it seemed a most
extraordinary thing that any trustee should consider he
performed his duty from his certuique trust, upona ques-
tion of insanity of that certuique trust raised by the trus-
tee himself, and thereby prevent the certuique trust from
defending himself against the working of the Commission
of Lunacy.
Mr. WRIGHT said that the trustee was literally starving
the lunatic, and that he had kept him without any means
of support for the last twelve months, notwithstanding he
had 1,0001. of the lunatic's property in his hands, accord-
ing to the calculation of the petitioner.
The LORD CHANCELLOR desired the matter to be put
into the paper, that it might come on regularly, to be
spoken to on some future day.
