COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

The Court sat in Banco this morning, and were occu-
pied till we went to press with a case of piracy, Newton v.
Cowie; of little or
no public interest, in which the de-
fendant sought to enter a nonsuit.

RIGA COURT OF ADMIRALTY.
THE HERRING.

Dr. LUSHINGTON applied to the Court, on behalf of the
crew of two vessels called the Little Dart and the Emma,
to determine the amount of a claim of salvage preferred by
them against the proprietors of the Herring. On the
night of the 4th of November last, while the Her-
ring was sailing towards the Port of London,
she became leaky near the Wore, and was, accord-
ing to the applicants' . statement, run on the Jenkin
Sand, when the applicants rendered their assistance
to get her extricated and fitted to complete her voyage ;
and two or three of them accompanied her to the port of
London. The Herring and her cargo were estimated at
2,4001., and the claim laid at 4001. The defendants of-
fered 50/., which the applicants considered too small for
their trouble.

Affidavits for both parties were then read, which were
contradictory, some swearing that the vessel was in the
utmost danger, and others that the danger was very little,
and that it was into mud, and not into sand, that she
had run.

Dr. JENNER appeared for the defendants, and contended
that the sum offered was large enough for all the services
rendered by the plaintiffs.
Lord Srowm. thought, that considering the value of
the vessel, and the stormy period of the year in which the
accident happened, one hundred pounds should be allowed.

We 'earnestly recommend to the benevolent
consideration of the a Dispensary for the treatment
and cure of Cancerous Diseases, opened in Charlotte-
street, Bloomsbury, on the Ist of May, under the direction
and superintendence of Mr. Farr, the respectable Surgeon
of Upper Montague-street, Montague-square, who is al-
ready known by two very able Treatises on Scrofula and
Cancer; be has completed some very extraordinary cures
of the latter by judicious medical treatment without the
knife; and under such auspices, this most desirable Insti-
tution has the best hopes of prosperity. The Dispensary
has hitherto been supported at the expence of a few indi-
viduals, and when it is considered that a number of un-
happy persons are afflicted with this lamentable disease, to
whom this• truly benevolent Institution holds' out a pro-
spect of relief, we are assured the humane disposition of
the public will he excited to contribute to its support. We
understand Subscriptions are received •at the Banking-
houses of Messrs. Coutts, and Co., and Messrs. Smith,
