LAW INTELLIG%NCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, NOVEMBER 16.

In the-case of .the-I.Antheth ,7 Charity, to-which
we alluded vesterd,iy, the,Lord Chancellor refused
the nifii ion for discharging the Receiver, and dii-
missed the lie arion With costs.
In the.motion of the Habeas Corpus writ, Mr.
Wilson and Mr. Hose were heard 'for the bank-
! ow, and Messrs. Heald and Muntagii• for. the
as-
sigoees.

The Loan CHANCRLLOR ordered the prisoner to
he remanded, as.he'did not think Sliffitierirgrotine
tVii% skew!) for his .discharge, but at the same
rime he would earnestly advise the Commissioners
to bring the. prisoner up again once more and to
examline,. him carefully. For his. sown part' he
should revise his judgment to night, and if be
found cause 'to alter it he would do so to-morrow
morning. fie hnd the ConsOltition of reflecting
ha! it he was: wrong in his view of the case, any
of the twelve Jud;;ec could set him right, as by
the act .of Parliament any of them bad the power
of granting the Writ of 'Habeas Corpus.
The in tier cases were not of the least public
interest!

SEDITIOUS

THE KING V. ROBERT SHORTER.

Mr. LITTLEDALE moved that Rohcrt Shorter,
one .4 the venders of Mr Catlile's Itt:puhlican,
tOtotild plead ton criminal infatuation.

The defendant was then called into Court, and
atter'', had taken his station on the fi9or,
DEALTRY read the information. After the
first rouse hid been read, Mr. Dealtry proceeded
to the second, anti the succeeding comps, previous
to. the 1'1..44(141g Of each of which, the defendant
demanded, in_. a rude manner, whether it was the
aann publication that was called..a libel, to which
Mt. Dealtry answeted in the affirmative.
Aber the iofortna,ion had been read through,
Mr. DEALTRY asked the defendant whether be
pleaded tznilly or .not guilty ?
"f he Defendant—lf 1 plead now,. When shall
he pot upon my trial ?
The CHIEF-jUStICE—That does not rest- with
rne,.Sir ; you ate only now asked whether you
chose to plead or not.

The Defendant—But if I plead now, shall I be
teied now ? I am charged with publiShing a. se-
ditious iibrl, which I certainly -did publish as•a
newsman, and I say l an► innocent lam ready to
be 'tied now.

. The CHIEF-JUSTICE---I cannot appoint when
your trial is to take place.
The Defendant—lf I plead notv, shall I be under
the necessity of procuring bail, because J am at
present noprepaied ?
The CRIEF.JUsTICE—The Officer will inform
you npon.tbA subject.
Mi. DEALTuv—Other persons who have been
charged with similar inforthations, have not been
requited to put in bail.
The Detendant—But they did not plead.
The I H I EF-JUSTICE—Tbey clime, I understood,
to -avail themselves of the time allowed them by
the practice of the Court, to consider of their
pleas. Do- ,you wish to have a similar indul-
gence ? Yon can have time if you choose.
The D4endant—But, my Lord, I do not want
this to he hanging over my head, his to me the
greatest punishment k.o be kept in suspense. It I
pleadllow, when shall I be tried ? Am I to be kept
ill suspense nwil after next T,,m ?

I he CHEF JUSTICE—AII you are now required
to do, is to nom,' the question which is put to
you. Do you choose to plead or not ? Or will
you take time to plead ?
The Detentlant—Still ant 1 to be kept in sus=
pense nntd after next Term ?
The CHIEF-JUSTICE-1 cannot answer that
question. ',it.. I cannot appoint your trial.
The Delendant-IVvll, I will consider of it,
and answer in two or three minutes. how many
counts are there in that information ?
Mr. DEALTRY—Srven.

Mr- pealtry now read over another Criminal
Information, for the publication of one of Carlile's
blasphemous librls.
After this intosmation was read over, the de-
fendant was again asked to plead.
The defendant-1- plead Not Guilty to both in-
fotthations, and the sooner, the trials are brought
on the better.
Thedefendant then retired from the Court.
SENTENCE UPON RICHARD CARLILE.

This -being tl►e day appointed for bt inging this
defendant up to receive the Jddgtnent of the
Court for the two libels of which he was con-
victed at the late ,Sittings at GUildball, as soon as
the Court was full, he stood up, whilst the Lord
Chief Justice read his Report of both trials, which
his Lordship did, without reciting the offensive
matter of the two libels, suggesting► as a reason,
that his brother Judges bud been furnished with
copies of the libellous passages. As soon as the
Reports were finished, his Lordship, Inoking
wards the defendant, asked f►iin whether he bad
any affidavits; when. •

Mr. DENMAN, to the, apparent surprise of the
Court, immediately rose and announced that he
was instructed to move the Court in arrest of

judgment..
The CHIEF JUSTICE—You move in arrest of
judgment ?
Mr. DENMAN replied in the affirmative, and pre-
faced his motion by- observing, that notwithstand-
ing .the interesting nature of this prosecution,
which had occupied so much of,their Lordships'
attention, and notwithstanding the particular si-
tuation in which he himself sttiod, in being called
