Upern the death of Duke William, in 1)305, there
were syveral competitors for the estate. Sir lithes
lline_s claimed wider the, above clauso, as the dire&
descendant of Lady Margaret Ker, third daughter
of Lord Harry ; pis did. also 'General Ker, as the
heir"-male 6etierel of th.:' first Earl Robert. Mr. BPl-
knden Gawler also clauded, as havinggota rigt4

that the cilia I terminated in his person, had disponed
the estaLes io Mr. Gawler. A vast deal of
tion.followed on these competitions. 'the Court of
Scission imately determined in favour of Sir James
Imes, and this decision was affirmed, in died, by
certain rt-solutions of the Hotbe of Lords.

Essex Ker, the eldest sister of Duke John,
who died io 1804, had ma, .e a claim to the title- in
die ComMictee of Privileges. Htr Ladyship now
brought an action in the Court of Session, to have it
fouud and declared that she had a right to the estates
al,u, ire irtue of the above clause. Her principal
pie► was, that she was the heir-female of the family
(of which there was no doubt), and that the term
" eldest daughter," used in the above clause, was,
•in the law language of the time at which the entail
S made; synonimoos,'. or- of the import with
heir fem de." Very ingenious papers were put
in upon this• plea,' and long ple:+di►►gs took place
about a fortnight ago. On Thursday, the Court,
after toll ~tt?;•,ions fn:rn each of the Judges, gave
jokment, unanimously repelling the pleas of Lady
I:',l4ex Ker, on finding she could net claim the estates
under the entail.

About five O'clock on Sunday morning, a bull-
dog, wish every appearance of madness about him,
visited the close or farm-yard of B. Tillstone,

of Mout,e Cornbe Place, near Brighton, where he
attacked and, bit three valuable cart horses, 'a very
tine 3-year old colt, a terrier dog, and a bitch with
Fuppit.soxho was fierce in the defence of her young,
but they wire, nevertheless, all killed by the mad

animal. l'he colt, a; if sensible of the nature of
the attack, parried it fur some time, by Striking the

assailant with his fore legs; and once so violently,
that he •laid hirn prostrate on the ground, but he

soon recovered, and, in 'return, seized- the coltby his
nose; after which he ran into another close, whither
he was pursued, and killed with a pitchfork, by
one of Mr. Tillstone's carters; but the fear of being
bit en hi the act had so terrified the poor fellow's
tnitid, that, immediately after accomplishing his
oojeet, he fell into strong fits; and remained under
their consul/sive influence until he was relieved by
Mr. Taylor, Surgeon of the 15th Hussars, who was
sent by Colonel Quinton to his assistance. 'The •
dogs bitten were, by order of Mr. Tillstone, killed ;
And the librees were committed to the care of the
Veterinary Surgeon of the above regiment, who lost
no time in applyingehe ciutery to the affeaed Farts.

several .does, some pigi, and even goats; after which
he ran to Moulse Combe. Colonel Quinton, oe
