An the btivrTEa of the FOUNDLING HOSPITAL, and the CIIA-
RITY &Harm of ST. GEoaGE th, MAZITYit.
:THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. GROTE.
This was an Appeal from the decision of the
Master of the Rolls,
_on an Information filed by
the .'AttOrney-General at the instance .of the
•-,Teuatees for the time being, of the above-named
4a_rities, against the defendant as Executor of
thelast Will and Testament of J. Grote, Esti.;
the question arose upon the construction of a
.Clause in the Will of the Testator, whereby he
rdirested.several sums to be laid out in purchasing
long annuities for the benefit of the said charities.
•
The'defendants had laid out money in the-pur-
.ohasing of stock in the long annuities, but only
to the amount of the sum as a legacy, which the
*Attorney General and the Trustees contended
was meant by the testator as an annual payment,
and -which construction had been decided in
their favour by the Master of the Rolls.
Mr. HART and Mr. -WRAY appeared this
morning in support of the appeal, when, after
some conversation' had taken place, it was .disco-
vered that the Attorney-General, who was most
particularly interested- in the proceedings, had
not been furnished with 4 brief.
-The LtiRD CHANCELLOR said, it was a question
.of -considerable- importan=ce ; he would therefore
Permit it, to. ,stand:over, iii order-that, if any
Mistake had taken. place, au opportunity should
'be given to i'ectity it
. .
In the Matter of " Gourley v. the Duke of o-
-raerset;',the-sarne-circtnstance occurred, and was

Yesterday, THOMAS HALLS, Esq. the new ap-
pointed Magistrate, took his seat at Bow-street,
to act in his rotation, for the first time since his
appointment. He was accompanied by WILLIAM
BECKETT, Esq.
.An American paper of the 26th September
says—" Mr. PascE, pf the New York theatre,
ho is at present in London, offered BRAIL
the English vocalist,4o,ooo dollars for two years'
engagement—which he refused."

REMARKIBIgV SPEECIf:—Mr. CUFFEE, Secreta-
ry to the Earl of Esstx, was executed in the
reign of Queen EuzAAETH, for the same offence
hich brought his master to the block. At the
_place of execution he.made the folloWing speech :
I am here adjudged. to die for acting an act
never plotted ; for plotting\ a plot never acted ;
• !. .
justice will have her course ; accusers must be
heard ; greatness will have the victory ; scholars
and martialists (though Valour and learningshould
'have the pre-eminence) in England must die' like
'dogs and be hanged. To mislike.this were 'but'
f011y; to dispute it but time lost; to alter it impos-
stble; but to endure it is manly ; and to scorn it
is magnanimity. The Queen is displeased ; the
lawyers imperious ; and death -terrible ; but I
crave pardon of the Queen ; .forgive the lawyers
hod the world ; desire to be forgiven ;. and wel-
come death."

ABUST or FRANKING .IN larrANO.-z—The
Attention of the. Postmasters,General has_ been
for several weeks directed to an abuse which
existed in the privilege of franking letters. in
the establishalent. In the furtherance of their
views to correct the abuse, Sir E. S. Lees has
adopted such regulations as will be attended with
the deSired effek ; for it is now necessary that .the
officers should write the entire superscription on
the. letters, and should, in all cases, confine the
priVilege to official correspondence. indeed, so.
Strictly are the regulations enforced, that even.
the clerks of the minor branches of the establish-
ment can neither send nor receive letters free of
postage, unless under the sanction of. Parlia
mentary privilege.--(Daplin Correspundeizi.)

MARVELLOUS STORY.--4'he inhabitants of Box;•
ley near Maidstone, have recently been - much
amused, or alarmed, according to their several de,
grees of faith in marvellous occurrences. A few
nights ago, as an aged couple named Stringer were
undressing for bed, in their cottage at the-vil-
lage above-mentioned, they heard the noise .of a
dripping on the floor of the chamber. On examin-
ing into the cause, the old lady -declares She- saw
a small shower of blood falling in the middle or
the room, from a height of about three feet from
the floor,-and so close to her fleet as to sprinkip
her shoes and stockings. .Three times she moved;
.and three times did the shower remove •with her,
and about a quart of blood in all fell. before•the
extraordinary shower terminated. They .exa.t
mined the ceiling, but on that there was not
the 'smallest trace of bleed'ar wet, tiOr-cPbld
they discover any thing: in the place over the
chamber: By this time,
,the old couple were
frightened alMost out of their" seventeen senses,'!
and they very philosophically concluded that'
the
.circumstance must have
,been -occasioned
by supernatural agency, a conclusion in: which;
many.' of their- equally phiko)plikal neighbour
s
coincide. -Some of the learned considerthat it is
the token of a horrible murder' taking place at.
the time, or the indication of some foul deed long
concealed, but about to be discovered.

FIRE.-Ykt'f4Cla'y morning, between sii and
seven o'clock, an alarming fire broke out in the
premises of Mr. George Hope, rem:merchant, at
the bottom of Old Gravel-leue, Wapping,- situ-
ated on the verge of the Thainesiand surrounded
by large warehouses and manufactories. The
utmost confusion for some time prec;ailed among
the shipping. on the river, they being, -cut from
their moorings to avoid the danger. The.flames
communicated to the granary, the whole of which
soon .became one general 'body of fire ;: it conti-
nued. to burn until aboutmine O'clock;'.When the
roofs fell in with a tremendous era-44i,, The tire
extended to the-houSes of Messrs. Lloyd, aad
Lyons,' in the rear, whiCh were materially da,
mated. -The,loss •sustained by Mr.-HOPe is es-
ti ma ted at ,several • • thollB4.nd-;:pounds,,,, as -besides
the 'ilestrUctiOii of the premises, upwards of fifteen
hundred quarters of grain were genicuned..
