on the 11th inst. They were all in-
toxicated at the time, the sheriff having furnished them
with gin at their own request. One was too drunk to
stand. They all confessed their guilt.—New York

Lieutenant-General Thomas Ashburnharn, who was
appointed to the command of the expedition
originally
Cihainliey, and was thence transferred to India, arrived
in London on Friday last by the overland mail frets
Calcutta. We believe the return of General Ashburn-
ham was entirely unexpected either at the Horse Guards
or the War Department,

LAW INttaiGENCE.—(This Day.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)
ELLIS ♦. ELLIS.

This was an appeal from an order of Tice-Chancellor
Sir 'John Stuart, affirming the certificate of his c'aief
clerk in taking accounts between the parties in ale
cause. The Lord Chancellor said that he had already
disposed of a great number of the objections taken to
the certificate of the chief clerk in the course of the argu-
ments in the cause. His lordship, since the hearing,
bad carefully gone over and examined a great mass of
affidavits, in order to see that nothing relevant was over-
looked. His lordship said that he could not disturb the
findings in the Vice-Chancellor's decree either upon
the accounts or costs of suit. The first item which the
Vice-Chancellor allowed is a sum of 4161. for the
maintenance and education of the plaintiff and the
other children until he attained the age of 25. His
lordship thought it a reasonable and sufficient sum to be
allowed at the time it was before him, but his lordship
allowed the Chief Clerk to investigate into the circum-
stances, and he was also of opinion that that was a
suitable amount. His lordship would not set aside that
finding. _ _ _

With regard to the sum of 633. 55., it might have been
allowed to the widow if she had not remained in the
house, but his Lordship was clearly of opinion that it
was properly disallowed by the chief clerk,
The next item objected to, a sum of 1211., being
interest on a mortgage for 54501., his Lordship was of
opinion telt it was propeey allowed by the Vice-
Chancellor. •

The case e be spoken to as to costs is the cause
(after the reeees) on the 20th current.

IN RE. DODDS.

Counsel applied to his Lordship upon affidavits to be
filed in the course of the day, for habeas &opus, or an
order to discharge Dodds, a debtor prisoner in Jersey
jail upon grounds different from those upon which a
similar former applioation was made.
His Lordship thought that the application should
have been made to a oourtof law—the Court of Common
Pleas.

The counsel for the prisoner stated that the courts of
common law had no power to grant a commission to
take affidavits in Jersey, and the authorities there would
not take the affidavits themselves, nor allow any one
else to take them in the island ; that the present affi-
davits were sworn in London.

His Lordship consented to take the affidavits, and
dispose of the case to-morrow, at 12 o'clock, at his resi-
dence, this being the last day of term.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood.)
IN RE PINKERTON'S !RUSTS -•PETITION 808 SUDSIIENT.I

His Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, having examined
the original will of the testator and compared it with
the official copy in reference to the periodical
fluctuation, was of opinion that although the
intention of the testator was not definitely
expressed, and the punctuation was defective ;
yet it appeared that the intention of the testator was to
impose an onerous obligation for the distribution of the
residue of his estate, in the respective events happening
as they occurred. His Honour was of opinion that the
residue of the property must be disposed of partly for
the purposes of education, as directed by the will, and
that the remainder must stand over to be applied to the
other purposes of the trust.
