INVERNESS-SHIRE COURT of FREEHOLDERS.

(From the inVerness Courier.)

The Michaelmas Bead Court of this County' Was open-
ed here yesterday at noon; and from the intense interest
which has existed, ever since the General Election, about
the admissibility of certain gentlemen to the roll of Vrie-
holders, the Meeting was very numerously attended. Ac-
cording to the advertisement, it appears that claims for
enrolment had been lodged with the Sheriff-Clerk for
1, The Right Hon. Godfrey, Lord Macdonald, two separate
claims, in addition to those for which his Lordship stands
already on. the Roll.
2, Mathew Rabington, Esq. Ranker in Leicester.
3, The Hon. A. W. R. Macdonald.
4, The H0n..4), S. E. Macdonald.
5, Archibald Macdonald, Esq.
6, George Sinclair, Esq. yr, of Ulbster.
7, The Rev. John Sinclair.
.8, Sir James Macdonald, Bart. M.P.
9, Duncan Davidson, Esq. of Tulloch, M.P.
10, The Rev. James Macdonald.
11, Adolphus Moffat Bayard, Esq.
12, Lieut.-Colonel Duncan Macpherson.
IS, Lieut.-Colonel Robert Macdonald.
14, John Archibald Campbell, Esq. W.S.
lb, Alexander Murray, Esq. Advocate.
16, Lieut-Colonel Alexander Macdonald, of Lyndale.
17, John Macpherson, Esq. of Porttee.
18, Allan Cameron, Esq. of Lochmaddy.
19, John Mackintosh, Esq. of Dultullich.
20, Colin Mackenzie, Esq. of Kilcoy.
It further appears, that claims of Restriction were lodged
with the Sheriff Clerk for the said
1, Duncan Davidson, Esq.
2, John Archibald Campbell, Esq.
3, John Macpherson, Esq. ;—and
4, Allan Cameron, Esq.
The Right Hon. Charles Grant, Chairman.

The Meeting having been duly constituted, Mr. Mac-
queen, W. S., stated, that Counsel were in Court on be-
half of the parties interested in the enrolment of the
claimants, viz. Mr. Murray and Mr. Buchanan, Advocates,
and he moved that they should be allowed to address the
Meeting, which was agreed to. Upon which, Mr. Camp-
bell, W. S., proceeded to state, that he meant to object to
certain votes at this meeting, viz. those of Mr. Macqueen,
W. S., and the Right Hon. Charles Grant, and read the
grounds of his objections. It appeared, however, that
from the circumstance of these objections not having been
lodged with the Clerk of Court within two calendar
months, they should not be legally received by the Meet-
ing; but in so far as the pipers given in by Mr. Campbell
were protests, they were received and ordered to be re-
corded in the minutes. In a desultory eonvereatilm which
took place with ,regard to the objections•now stated, it
was allowed by. Mr. Mackenzie, of Woodside, that nothing
further was meant by bringing them forward, " than just
to keep the thing alive."

The Court then proceeded to take up the claims for en-
rolment ; and after a great deal of warm discussion about
the first to be considered, the 'claims of Lord M'Donald
were brought on. The arguments of counsel on this oc-
casion, continued from one o'clock to nine in the evening,
—end, were a 'repetition of tliose urged at the election in
July last—ending in the same way, viz, the rejection of
Lord M'Donald's claims,..as well as several of those who
claimed enrolment of varioutcpendieles of his Lordship's
estate, and the rest were withdrawn by Mr. Campbell.
We cannot follow out the train of argument, which led
to this decision of the Court, abounding, as it did to us,
in unintelligible technicalities and legal phrases. But we
may observe, that the want of power in the Commission-
ers to unite two or more cumulos, and then make a new
division, as objected to by the text writers, and fortified
by several decisions in the supreme Court, appeared to be
the most fatal,—the power of Comniissionti consisting in
dividing and subdividing—but not in accumulating in the
first place, and then splitting: Having neither room, nor
the power at present, to give the details of this), and
various other objections to the enrolment of these claim-
ants, we close our report of this day's proceedings simply
by giving lists of the Majority and Minority, voting on the
question.

From a' speech mad. by Mr. Campbell; W.S. we were
able to gather, that these rejected clainis for enrolment,
"are forthwith to be brought before a Court, more com-
petent to judge of their correctness and legality, than the
Michaelmas Court of Inverness-shirt Freeholders." The
claim of Mr. Mackintosh, of Daludlich, was also rejected,
—.-those of Mr. Mackenzie, of Kilcoy, and Mr. Babington,
were not brought forward at the meeting.

THEATRICAL ANECDOTE.—It is the lot of
Royalty, whether real or imaginary,. to be attended
with misfortunes. A little while since, it, was the fate
of Richard Me Third to be represented by a young
man, well known for his attachment to the stage, at a
country theatre. On Lord Stanley's entrance at the
fourth act, the tyrant demands—:s How now, Lord
Stanley, what's the news ?" The answer given was,
it seems, a fact—,4 There's a Mall at the door pays you
owe him a crown, and who swears he won't go away
till ha gets it."

St. Anthony's-street, where the gas
pipes havebeen laid, a great quantity of human bones
were dug up, much decayed by time, with *lithe,ap-
pearance' of having lain undisturbed for along period
di
of I.ears. It is well,known that a cav,.nt,- de Gated
to St. Anthony, the remains of which is Still to be
seen, flourished thereabout the 14th century ; and pro-
bahli the 'burying-ground is what our modem en-
lighteners intend illuminating with gas, where the
d
holy tapers formerly burned, and, they utunted the
midnight hymn. If this conjecture does not hold
good, then the hones in question must have been the
,c unsightly corses" of those slain at the siege of Leith;
to confirm this supposition, a skull Was lately found
where Mr. Stnart's new chapel is building, having-a
ball within it, evidently one of those who 4‘ fought for
glory and egraye."
~Are not these two circumstances
worthy of antiquarian research, and the investigation
'of those who love to ponder,on, and explore the dada
of other years ?--Scotsman.
