TUB QUEEN DOWAGER OF Witch
DRRO.—The numerous visitors to Green
sett
Per -
and Woolwich, in expectation of being Pof
at the debarkation of the Queen Dowagerji
Wirtemberg, have this day suffered a second
qy
appointment ; the vessel which conveys here 0,1
jesty to her native shore, not having yet aPP,let
in sight. About noon this day, a stencil PT t 3
arrived from Hull, and at so late a peri°7 n°Sunday evening, when the steamer left,
tidings had been received in that port C` i/011
Majesty. There is no probability of her arrber
therefore, before to-morrow, although a 00111 the

King's Mews, this morning, for the convel'''

LAW INTELLIGENCE...—(TIII6 DAY.)
COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
21111 ICING V. TIL24ONINQ AND mums.
TNis,case originated in a seizure, under an extent,
L a lurge quantity of calico goods, found on the pre-
'ins, Of Samuel Goold, one of the defendants.
'art of these goods were now claimed by Tregoning
a being sent by him to Goold, for the purpose of
aving them printed.
Mt . PLATT, for the defendant, said, that the ques-
mlvas one more of law than of fact, and that after
jading features wero ascertained, the better
ours o would be to consent to a verdict for the
:rown, and reserve the law of the case for the sub-
Nia lit consideration of the Court. The Act of
'arli ament authorised the seizure for the debt of all
sod 3 and •cosimodities, in respect whereof any
utr of excise is by law imposed, in case such goods
re 1 bund on the premises of the King's debtor.—
)n !the part of Tregoning, it was insisted that the
ni of calico belonging to him did not answer the
/.),evi-is description, inasmuch as they had not when
"i'd, reached that state when the excise duty
tttai :bed ; the duty became payable when the calico
vat printed and stamped, and not before ; and it
'°as therefore contended, that the calico in question
lot having been printed or stamped, could not
regarded " as goods or commodities, in re-
't whereof any duty of excise is by law imposed."
3 tr. CLBRK, for the Crown, consented to the
Lm't rze proposed by the defendant's Counsel,and ad-
ted that Tregoning was not himself indebted to
Ilia Majesty; he also admitted that the calico was
wilted for a debt due by Goold, who was a calico
prii iter for hire, and not a manufacturer. The
tellrned Gentleman then, in order to ahem the
Mode in which the duty is eollected on calico, called
James Snitch, an excise officer, who said that the
calico pieces, when first brought to the printer's, are
shown to the officer, au(l by him marked. The
length, breadth, anil quality of the goods are at the
'aloe time entered in a book. This the witness
coinsidered to be the foundation of the duty,
although the amount of the duty was not et:l-
ee:fated until the pieces were printed. In
case the calico-printer did not, when called
on by the Excise officer, exhibit to him any pieces
I.3_riginal!y marked, the duty Was charged on them as
if for printed pieces, but the charge would be after-
wards remitted on the production of them in an un-
finished state.
The Jury returned a verdict to the Crown, upon
the understanding that it was to be made a special
c_ase, and with the view of taking the opinion of the
Court on the construction of the Act of Parliament.
