LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.

COURT OF CHANCERY.

WILLIS V. BLACK.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this
case, the question on which arose upon the con-
struction of a covenant contained in a ..,4ettlement
made on the marriage of a gentleman named Hornby
with a lady named Black. The father of Miss
Black covenanted in that settlement, to give the
parties to the marriage and their heirs, by his
will or otherwise, as large a portion of his pro-
perty as he should give by his will or otherwise
to any of his younger children, the gift to take effect
upon the death of the survivor of himself and his
present wife ; 1,400/. was advanced by Mr. Black
at the period of the marriage ;he had also advanced

to several' of his younger children sums of money
both prior to, and after the date of the marriage
settlement. It was contended, that the settlement
had a retrospective and prospective effect, and that
in an account to.be taken between the parties, those
sums so advanced to the younger children should be
taken into. the account. Upon the matter coming
on before his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, he di-
rected an account to be taken in that form. Upon
a rehearing before him, his Honour reversed that
decision in lobo, and it was against_ the last judg-
ment of his Honour that the.parties appealed to this
Court. His Lordship, after going at some length
into the settlement, thought the decree which was
first pronounced by the Vice-Chancellor was the
right one, as far as it decided that the covenant had a
prospective effect, but with respect to it having a
retrospective effect, the Court reversed that part of
the Decree. his Lordship directed that the 1,400/.
advanced by the father at the marriage should be
considered as an item in the account between the
parties, and ordered it to bey brought into Court.

BLAKEMORE V. GLAMORGANSHIRR CANAL COMPANY,

Upon his LORDSHIP stating that he thought there
was some chance of arriving at the heavy motions in
this case to-day,
Mr. HoRNE stated that he thought the parties
did not intend to trouble the Court at the present
moment. There were sevirat of the motions not in
the paper, and he believed it was intended, with
the Court's permission, to bring all on together.
His LORDSHIP observed that Mr. Baron Hullock
had showed him his notes upon one of the trials.
Mr. HORNE believed they had nothing whatever
to do with the matters in this Court.
IN THE MATTER OF CHAMBERS.

Mr. KNIGHT stated, that upon this matter being
heard before the Vice-Chancellor, his Honour or-
dered that Mr. Chambers, the respondent, should
pay the costs of the petition. At that decision an
appeal had been presented, which had been
on the paper several days; but in consequence
of the pressure of business, it had not yet
been heard. The costs had been taxed at be-
tween 501. and 601., and the application the
Learned Counsel was instructed to make was, that
the proceeding for the purpose of enforcing those
Costs might be stayed. Mr. Chambers was a gen-
tleman of great property, and was willing either to
pay the money into Court, or to give the undertak-
ing of his Solicitor.
Mr. SUODEN, contra, had no objection to consent
to the application, provided the money was paid
into Court within seven days, and he had the costs
of the present motion.
Mr. KNIGHT consented to this, though he consi-
dered it extremely hard upon his client.
The Court was occupied with motions throughout
the day.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
ROWE V. BRENTON.
This case continued from yesterday, and has every
appearance of being likely to continue, perhaps over
to-morrow. We understand that there are 95 wit-
nesses to be examined for the Crown.
The first witness called to-day was Mr. Elling-
worth, who produced an extract from the Doomsday
Book, and other records in the Tower, in order to
prove the ancient tenure of the different manors in
the county of Cornwall, by the King as the Duke
of Cornwall.

Mr. BROUGHAM objected that the defendant was
not in a condition to prove facts relative to other
manors, unless lie proved that there was some con-
necting custom which equally applied to the manor
in question. He contended that the defendant
should confine his evidence to that particular manor.
The ATToRNRY-GENERAL, after Mr. Brougham's
colleagues had been heard at some length, was re-
plying to their arguments, when the Court over-
ruled the objection.

The records, which are very voluminous, were
being read when we went to press,

HIGH COURT OF ADMIRALTY,
TH II SPRING.

Dr. DODSON applied to the Court for an order
calling on Mr. Charles Drew, to show cause why
be should not be adjudged to pay salvage. The
,Spring was an East India vessel, and on her voyage
home from Bombay, on the 6th of December, 1527,
fell in with a most violent gale off the Cape, which
, continued without intermission for three days
during that time the ship became much injured, and
was obliged to make to the nearest port for repairs;
on examining her cargo, which was a very valuable
one, it was found that a great part was entirely
spoiled, and the other much damaged, in conse-
quence of the ship having let in the water. Under
and' after these circumstances the petitioners, John and George
JC'ornny, v,,ith the assistance of 64 labourers, exerted

On her arrival here Messrs. Bazett, Farquhar, and

writers, who also refused it; the consequence was
that it waa sold in the usual manner by the East
