MAJOR FITZ-CLARENCE-.

The arrident which has happened to this
gallant Officer it most severe, and is curious, from.
being the second within the last few days.
On Thursday bat, while is his tilbury in the Park, the rein
of the. bridle got under his horse's tail, and he kicked so vio•
!entry as to shatter the gig, and strike 11.1ajor Fit;-Clarence
severely on the breast, who was obliged to lose above twenty
ounces of blood. On Sunday, when returning from bushy,
to wait upon the Prince Regent, the rein again got under
the horse's tail, at Hammersmith, and he ran off. The ser-
vant jumped out to stop him, but fell, and Major Fitz-Cla-
rence Leaned forward to remove the cause of the horse's
alarm. For thi: purpose he put his riglit leg forward on the
abaft, and while in this position he received a kick upon the
chin, which smashed both bones of the leg, and forced one
of them through his boot. The horse ran the gig up against
the wall, and threw Major Fitz-Clarence out between him
and the wall, where he lay plunging, the shock i.aving upset
giz, horse, and all. Major Fitz-Clarence, with great forti-
tude arid presence of mind, held the horse's head down with.
the left hand, while with the other he drew himself al.ng
the ground, and succeeded in keeping the horse from going'
ever him until assistance arrived. Mr. Pring, the surgeon,
of Hammersmith, immediately attended, and set Major Fitz.
Clarence's leg, in a public-house, after which lie wrote to his
father and the Prince Regent, to acquaint them of the sad ac-
cident th it had befallen hint. The Prince Regent imme-
diately sent his bed carriage for him ; and the Duke of Cla-
rence, although only married the (Jay before, came to assist
its
lonvio4 him to his house iu t:n: Stable-yard, where he arrived
in shunt live hours after the accident. .V.ajor Fitz-Clarcine
has sufferva very much.

-LAW INTELLIGENCE.

`COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY 15.

'FINAL DECISION OF LORD sTEWART'S CASE.

The LORD CHANCRLLOR came to Lincoln's Inn
Ilan et ten o'clock, and was for some time oc-
copied in his private room. Ile took his seat at
hail-past ten. The Court was much crowded, in
expectation of the fin-4 result. it tieing generally
understood that Sir Samuel as Counsel
fur Mrs. 'favlor the goardiao of Lady Vane Tem-
pest, would this morning intimate whether Mrs.
Taylor intended to appeal, or not, to the Muse
cif Lords. Sir Samuel happened, however, at this
moment to be engaged in' a case before tile Vice-
Chancellor ; but Sir Arthur Pigot, one of Lord
S'ewutt's Counsel, Was present, with Messrs.
1; art and Horne. also engaged in the case.
• Sir ARTHUR PTGOT then said, that he had con-
sulted with the Counsel on the other side, and
understood from them, that it was the fixed deter-
mination -of Mrs. Taylor, the Hula of the ruing
Daily, and one of her guardians, to appeal from
leis Lordship's decision to the House of Lords.—
From the circumstances of the case, it was par-
tienlatly desirable that the appeal should he heard
as quickly as possible ; bat it eoirld not in any
way proce.ed till his Lordship had lot wally made
ont the order.

The Lain Cu Atqcvt-Lort —You may, therefore,
take the order that the Master's report; finding
that this is not- s►n oper Marriage, is by me
confirmed; at ►he same time let the entry of ap•
peal be inserted. I am of opinion that the mar-
riage must be restrained, under the present cir-
cum“ances, till the decision of the House of
Lords be known. NVith respect to the other re-
straints, they had as well he put an end to, as I
don't see any reasonable- cause fur their being
continned.

Sir A. PIGOT —1 Should suppose, my Lord,
that the Master may, in the mean time, never-
theless proceed wish making out the proposals of.
