• CRI:IINAL INFORMATIONS., ' •

,a rule to

he filed against George Pa_ hill, and Stacey. Coaste,
Esqrl. and teon3rd Lust n, for ;resisting the exec:b-
ijou of an Act passed in last Session of Parliament,
for m ,king certi.rt roads in the neighbourhood of
Shoreham, in the county. of Kent., '
From the statement of (he Attorney-General it
-appeared, that the first two Gentlemen against 'whom
the information was applied tor, were Magistrates,
' of the county, and also Trustees under, the Act, and
the other person was their clerk, though without
any legal authority. At the regular meetings ap,
pointed by the staoate, a 'Quorum of the Truste(:s
had appointed a clerk in terms of • the Aa, and he
had aa_ain pointed out the track of the- 'road; on,
which he had placed „a number nflabotners,ao pro-
. ceed in the 'etecution-of the work. The Gentlemen
'complained on, beirz interested in the property so
marked out, had auVised the under tenants; &c. to
poSh -the workmen if. the line .of the intended :road,
with a. of provoking theca to assault flie per:-
sorisimpechng them ; on ‘;it,hic.4l the two defendants',
wlio were Magistrates, engaged that flea would
commit the regular clerk and his workmen. .Ac-
cordingly twenty-one of the labourers so employed
had been apprehended, and ,by the defendants sent
to the Jail of Maidstone; at thedistance of I g miles;;
one of the defendants, on being applied to by- a per-
son who wished to bail the prisoners, having
ferred him Jail Books for the cause of the
commitment of the p6soners, a:6,d regusing•himselt
to give any intrimation on that subject.
Lord ELLENITOROUGH Was not convinced that the
Magßleares complained, ofhad been guilty of a con-
t,nat'of' the legislative authority. 'They might
!lave misconceived the meanieg of the Act ; they
(night even have been inve,aed walla the conviCtion
(hat tie Aa in question had been made_the pretext
for an unatik,horiaed invasion of the rights,of
duals, and, 'lli ConSequente, might have given t.be
advice imputed 'to them. The; Court could not, in
such circumstances, grant the Rule.
Rule 'refused.
Mr. Aiitorr triCied fdr 4. criminal. information.
against Charles James :Abberly, FinO, and
Daniel Brown, under the follow ingcircumailuiccs
A gentleman, of the-rara:biAdatu,an Officer in the
Ludlow Cavalry, had sonic time agO been posted by
Mr. Abberly as a coward, but had then taken the
law in his own hands, in consequence of which he
had been bound over to.keep the peace. After the
expiring olthe period of hiS recognizance, Mr:Adinn
was waited on; first by Brown, and next by Finch, .;1
but without seeing either ; thongh he' had 7,1 J 'doubt
they meant to convey to hint a challenge. He then
went to Wales, when a paper was posted up at, the:
Coffee-house, at Ludlow, in theSe terms :—`:c I do.
once more post Captain Adam, of the Ludlow Ca-
valry, as a coward. For particulars enquire of me;
Captain in the Nottingham regime:4, Ludlow."
This placard was signed by t. J. Abberley. A si-
milar notice was exhibited at Hereford and Shtews-
bury., and lest any doubt should be . entertained on
'the subject, another p!,:card was also exhibitedl It
which other two persons moved against, who
bore the rank of Captain and Ensign in the same
r-.-giment with Mr. Abberley, bore testimony to.
;heir concurrence in opinion with hint as to Air.
Adams being a coward.
. ,
The paper, however which bere the, names of
tbdse two Gentlemen be;ng printed, and there being
no evidence of their concurrence,' the Rule' was con,
fined to Mr. Abberley alone.
Mr. ScattLE:rir nioved for a critnital information
against W. Carr, a- General in the' a'rtny. The per
son. in av hose name the application -has made, was a •
Mr, Bate-s; a Gentleman Of proptriT in the county
of Durham. The complainant , had been shooting.
in the neighbourhood of his Own
.property, being a
person duly qualified, when General Carr came up,
and accosted -him in a rude Manner ; an altercation
ensued, in which improper language was used on both
sides. The General at length growing cool, called the
complainant aside, and expressed a desire to meet hint
with a friend r.lic next morning. With this itivita-
tion the coroplainant did not comply and 'On the
following day he received from the General a letter,
inforthing him that his condo& at their meeting
y!:sterday had in the first instance been so gross, and
latterly so cowardly, that he could no longer con-
sider the coMplainant to be a Gentleman, and should
represent him accordingly%
Lord ELLENBOUOUGH thought this was a rerun).

to be a Gereleman, and, of course, would not fight

Mr. MAltitYArrapplied for a ,mandamus,
the CannnissiOnera under thisA.a,to grant cony
pensation to John Scott Whiling, for certain pro-
perry Li: onging to him in the vicinity of the Low.
don Ducks, the value of which had been diminished.
by the operation of the London -Dock Ads. .The
Learned Counsel contended that the it Et applied in
two Nt ays, lira as to the dithinution of the. pretiti
arising from the trade carried 'on at .the tomer.
wharfs, &c. ; and secondly,. as to the drtterioratinn
of the property of ihe proprietors. The plainiiff-in'
this case had succeeded to his brother recently be-,
fore the year 1799 when it • occurred 'in hirn to
convert his ' proptriy into wharfs and warehorises.,
He purchased the IA and, and contracted fur the 'ne-
cessary buildings picvious to Jinuary, I 800. The
first• London Dock Ut was passed in the year 1799,
and the second in June, 1800. In (3tlober of the
same year, the plaintiff's works were finis:ied;' and
it was only in the present year that the Commis-
sioners hdd refused to alloW him any Compensation
for the deterioration of his property,
Lord ELLCNBOROUGH• was of rpinion that the
plaintiff had onlyspetailated on the advantages to be
derived froin this AC. It was not meant, however,
to operate as an encouragement to building of wharfs
for the purpose of 'afterwards applying for com-
[ensationt. The plaintiffs had been. coining to in-
stead avoiding a nuisance. 'He therefore • iliou4ln
the Commissioners had done right.—Rule refused.

of him and his 'associates, that he, was 'milled 'to,
would speedily recover the_ amount Of .80,0001.
trusting to these represeritatio4 lite, plaintiff, who
:vas a siable-keeper,. had furnished :the defendant'
with curri6les; 14,rses,.&t. and had even made Over
to - him his country hpise and furniture, taking,
however a`warrant. ()it-attorney over .4 he latter. The

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, N0v.36.

BfIAHAM V. ZIABB.

Mr:Serjeant BEST moved the Court, for a rule to
sheW cadge why the verdict in this case_ should not
be incieased from twelve shillings to tiny pounds.—
He stated, that • the action wds tried at Lancaster
AssiteS, before Baron GalnAm, xid was brought
under the following circumstances. The plaintiff
having been. arrested
,by the defendant, who is a
efficer,:.wai conveyed in custody to the de,
fendant'sk house, frbm whence he was shortly after-
wards discharged, having procured bail. Previous.
to his emancipation, however, the defendant in-
sisted upon being paid twelve shillings • for ,the
arrest, and a like sum for the bail-bond, 'althoup
the- attormy of. the plaintiff brought the bond
..regukrly. prepared 'for - exeention. lie was retllol4-
3trAted with, on the injustice as well as illegaiity of
his Charges, hot he still persisted in his demands,
and vas finallypaid the sum of .twenty-four
At.the ensuing Assizes, however, an action
was market; against him to recover. a .pendlty cif
501. under ,'a'u Ad passed in the 32d 'of George
which enacted, that, no. sheri ff'sf Officer -should -de-
Maud more than the . sum laW alluwe,l-for the
arrest. .of art individual (that allowancer acco; ding
to the statute of Henry' the Vlth, aniOunting only
to 'four:j'enc4, I.vitholt I.,:iug;inbjed to a penally
of 501. .With treble costs of suit fur every such
offence, . over ,and above the excess of his charge.
The' Jury, its .t4iS 'east., returned a vetoict
fors the full., amount of the excess of..charge,
shillings and eight-pence, and the.
Learned Judge directed that application shoUld be
ittade to the. Court at West Minster, not feeling
himself competent to decide the question hiunsdP,
to answer whether the verdict should, be•.- for the
fifty pounds or .t he excess of 'charge. The plaintiff
having paid the twenty-four shillings in consequence
of the illegal demand of the defendant, the Learned
Serjeant expressed a hope that the Court wotild see
the justice of- his case, and increase the -verdict in
pursuance of the regtilations laid down in the Act, to
which the decision already given in his favour enti-
tled him.

Lord Chief Justice MANSFIELD said, that this ap-.
plication should have been made in the first four
:days.of Term, but in communicating with his bro-
ther Judges on the Bench, he granted the rule.

• AUBERT 0. V.r1.,•11-i. '
in thiS case, which was tried at the last sittings
after terin and in which application was made a
few dabs since fin- a new trial, the Lord Chief Jus-
tice gave inLignieiit. a
It may be to the recollection of our readers that
the plaintiff gave-401. in 1808 to the defendant,
upon a policy to receive tool. if tlieee was peace
between this country and France beinre' the Ist of
July 'lBlO. In consequence of the defendant be-
coming. a banlqupt, however, he brOught his a&ion
to recover the amount of the original deposit which
was decided in his favour. This deci,ion not being
deetmd satisfaBory, a motion was made,.' as we
have' already stated, on the part of the defendant
for a new trial.

COUNT GOTTORP, late KING,of

Anything relative to this illustrioni ..3trznger can-
not be uninteresting to a getil.:ne British heart.
• The Count, at-rived ;as we ncoieed in a 'former
publication,,,at the Clarendon Hotel, 'On 1.‘11!:173:1k4'
last. A c6rimodrOus suite of apartments hartiaeeLA
provided far his reception on the principal floor, by
the care of his Majesty's Mrnisters, but he prell
ferred occopying,,another and less magflificent suite.
On the next Morniug lie Was visited by Mr Cul-
, ling Smith, Under f3eCretall of Staie for the 1707

be arose. Hd 6:{plaiti'eci; 'it to the Under
Secretary Of Srate, that.' he Was Obligr-d 'for the
attention she wn by his M.,ieoyls .N.li:JtSier's
in 1 i 3
reception ; but Gls t,e had proceeded country
in a private capacity, he begged to decline ally poblid
'mark, of distinEtlon or •zeourresy: " All he sought
in England was a safo and honourable ':etreat. His
own tnean'S were fully adefjuitte ta'Sechr6 all, that
be'required, and he had employed them, iq the first,
instance, to procure a coinfortable apartment, cast-,
inghis 'eye cheerfully around theroOM.. Count
has, however, been since prevailed opon, We finder.
stand, to accept the apartments lately oci:upied irt
Hampton Court Palace by the Prince. df Orange.
The Marquis Wellesley sent rhis carriage shortly
afterwards to the hotel, and waited personally on'
the Count, and proposed to attend tis Majesty in
his visits to the Royal Dukes. It was with ditfi--
culty that the illorq.lis c,,utd prevail on hint to ac•
cept the occasional use of his carriage, and to•gire
up fits fir,t desilt:ir of laying his respects to the Royal
Family in a hackney-coach. .
The Count entered and quitted • his hotel with av
little ceremony as the :humblest guest it ;
and has walked, whenever' the weather permitted,
through the different streets and Squares at the west •
end of the town, and once into dui throng of the
city.

He i 4 attended by a confidential friend,. an Eng-
lishman, and one domestic. He means to view
all our great cities and warm:at-1040s. He dined
and spent the evening vith the. Prime of Conde
and .all the Bourbons; at WimbleJon, on Saturday
last.

Yesterday he visited the Admiralty, and remain..
ed there-1(1r -. a . considerable t'ine in conversation
with Mr. Yoarts. He came in a a post-carriage,
with only one attendant., his interpreter. He was
dressed in a black Coat and waistcoat, dark. grey
pantaloons, and Fitissiap. boots. After ,his confer-
ence with the First Lord,. he passed through the hall
of the office unattended, and stood under- the por-'
tic°. uncovered. • .
