HALLIDAY V. ACTON.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR, observing Mr. Hart and Mr. Sugden
in Court, said that he was now prepared to give his opinion in this
case. The question, he said, was, whether a notice served on the
defendant was such a notice as must determine the partnership
subsisting between them. The partnership consisted of Messrs.
Halliday, Studd, And Acton ; and, according to the provisions
of the partnership deed, each partner had the power of
withdrawing himself from the partnership, and so far dissolving
upon giving three years notice of his intention. Studd died,
leaving his wife and the plaintiff, Halliday, one of the partners,
his executors. Shortly after his death, they served Acton with a
notice, to the effect that they, Mary Studd and Simon Halliday,
the executors of the deceased, and Simon Halliday, the devisee in
trust, were determined to withdraw from the co-partnership. The
question now was, whether Halliday signed this notice solely as
the executor of Studd and the devisee in trust of his estate, or
whether he in his individual capacity was bound by it.
His Hosoun was of opinion, that the notice referred to the
estate of Studd, and that Halliday did not by the notice express
any intention of withdrawing himself from the co-partnership.
'Mr. HART said, that the withdrawing of any of the three part-
ners was to have the erect of dissolving the firm altogether.
The VICE-CHANC/1.1.0R replied, that such was not his impres-
sions as far as be recollected tile provisions of the partnership
deeds, however, if Mr. Hart, upon examination of the deeds, found
that it was so, lie might be at liberty to mention the matter again.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

The Masquerade at the Argyll Rooms last night, produced a
very respectable show of disorderlies at this office this morning,
the champaigne it would appear, had not only enlivened those
within by the taste, but produced some very extraordinary effect.
outside by the smell. A group of stray citirens probably wishing
to dive into the mysteries of the Beau Monde, were so materi-
alized by its effects, that they put themselves upon their
rights and the foot pavement, and refused to budge one inch,
the natural consequence of which act was to find them-
selves before " his Worship" this morning. As many, however,
as could quell their civic bile sufficiently to apologise without a
wry face, were allowed to depart in peace ; but those who per-
sisted in their right to obstruct the foot-way, open the carriage-
, do°73, &c. were held to bail.

COLZ V. PHILBEY.

This was an action brought to recover the amount of a bill for
the education of the defendant's son.
Mr. S. TAYLOR opened the case.

Mr. BLIGH addressed the jury for the plaintiff, who was a re-
spectable schoolmaster in the town of Aylesbury. The defendant
was a vender of carriages, living at Uxbridge. The defendant
had given notice of set-off. He should prove by a number of wit-
nesses that this set-off ought to be only 221., although the defend-
ant had very ingeniously augmented this charge for building a gig,
from 221. to 301., when he heard that the plaintiff was about to
bring this action.
Anne Cole, daughter of the plaintiff, remembered a conversa-
tion about the terms between her father and defendant. Her
father said, that as the boy was not quite 11 years of age, he
should charge only 24 guineas a-year, exclusive of washing, which
was 10s. 6d. a-quarter. Was present when her father agreed to
have a gig made by defendant, like One he had seen at Uxbridge,
for eighteen guineas, but it was not such a one as her father
wished, and Mr. Philbey agreed to make one according to her
father's direction, for 221. It was not made quite according to
stipulation ; there was some omission. There was to have been
an apron, and a lining also for the back, which defendant said
would be Si. in addition.

Mary Cole was present at the conversation about the gig. An
apron and a lining were to be added, and the price was to be 22/. ;
the lining was not added.
Mr. STORKS addressed the jury for me defendant. •004--fnrm..t
ttuit im 'amnia impute eitytising bk perjury to the young ladies
who had been examined, but he thought the one who said she
had the retentive memory, with the vanity belonging to the
female sex, had paid herself too high a compliment. He said
this, because he had an account in the plaintiff's own hand-
writing, in which he charged not 24/., but 26 guineas for the
schooling, which proved that there was no contract at all made,
and that the plaintiff originally meant to have charged the full 26
guineas a-year. He should prove that the gig was extraordina-
rily cheap at the price of 30/.
Charles Selby, coachmaker, at Amersham, had seen the plan
of the gig; such a one was worth 30 guineas. He had never
seen the gig itself.
Joseph Lovell, coachmaker, at Uxbridge, would charge 80
guineas for a gig on the plan exhibited.
Mr. Justice GASELEE summed up.—Verdict for plaintiff—

for the dividends on the English Loan, in order to
retrieve their credit with the monied interest in this
country. Smuggling had been carried on so long on
the coast of Lima, that the revenue had been greatly
defrauded, and the Government, feeling its own
strength, was resolved to put down the smuggling system
altogether. The following letter augurs favourably of
the mines, provided the steam-engines are brought to
bear :

" LIMA, OCT. 90.—We are in great hopes that commerce in
this part of the world will shortly experience a sensible improve-
ment, in consequence of the productive state of the Cerro of Pasco,
a continuance of which may now be looked upon as pretty
well ensured, by the arrival in the port of, Callao of two
steam engines, belonging to the Pasco Company, on board the
brig Ocean, the Cerro being at present kept in a state which
admits of its being worked in various parts to immense ad-
vantage, even now, by a single old crazy engine, brought
here by Abadia, which has been repaired so often, that if it
should once more break it would hardly be possible to set it to
work again. The removal of the Custom-house hence to Callao,
so long projected, and which took place on the 20th instant, pre-
vents, most vexatiously for the present, the landing and dispatch of
these engines to the interior, as, till all the goods (not a few)
which had been landed previously to the removal of the Adreana,
are cleared from the Quay of Callao, the Government will not per-
mit a single package to be landed from any vessel whatever.—
These two engines, placed judiciously, it is thought, will dry the
whole of the mines of the Cerro, the richest of which are too deep
and too far removed from the old engine to be affected by it. The
Quay of Callao being now in an advanced state of clearance, it
will not be long before we see them on their passage to the Sierra.
" LIMA, OCT. 29.—Quicksilver is in such demand in Pasco,
that the Iluancavelica Quicksilver, is here worth 130 dollars per
qql. ; foreign 110 dollars. The scarcity and great demand for
this article have induced the Government to issue a decree, allow-
ing the import of the Spanish quicksilver, also the introduction in
the principal ports of Peru, of cargoes of Spanish manufactures, in
vessels under whatever flag, provided such vessels bring ten*
quintals of quicksilver per register ton.
" The Mint coined, in the last seventeen days, 208,000 dollars.
Owing to an accident to the water-wheel, the operations are, at
present, suspended.
" Nov. 22.—The Mint is again at work, and coining at the
rate of 20,000 dollars per day."

* By a letter of the sled of November, the ten quintals had
been reduced to two.

TITHISS,-.TUR REY. DR. OWEN v. THE PARISH OF ST. °LAVE,

HAILT-STRIET.
•
This was an appeal by the Rev. Doctor against two rates for
the relief of the poor of the above Parish, made for two several
periods, viz.—from Midsummer to Christmas, 1025, and from
Christmas, 1825, to Midsummer, 1826. The rats were made
on the 17th day of March, 1826.
Mr. L_►w appeared for the appellant, and stated to the Court
that Mr. Adolphus was with him ; and was anxious that the case
might stand over, in order that he might be able to attend.
The.REcoamta could have no objection, if all the parties con-
sented.

Mr. BoLLANn could not consent, for he had ample grounds for
maintaining the validity of the rate.

Dr. Owen said, that if the case was allowed to stand over, in
all probability some amicable arrangement might be come to,
there appearing to be such a disposition on the part of the pa-
rishioners.

Mr. ANDREWS denied that any thing of the kind had ever be-
fore that time been intimated, nor any application made.
Dr.- Owen stated, that the question was of so much importance,
that it required all the learning of Counsel to be brought in order
to come to a proper decision.

Mr. BOLLAND—The question is not of any such importance ;
the fact is, you receive 1,8001. a year for tithes, and are rated at
only 1,100/..

The petition to the Lord Mayor and Court of Alderman, dated
the 13th of June, 1825, was then read, which was in substance,
that the appellant, Henry Butt Owen, D.D., was rector of the
parish; that he was informed, and believed, that the rates were
;nfcrrmal, inasmuch as they are retrospective and prospective;
that they are not impartial rates of assessments, but, on the con-
trary, are very unequal and oppressive in very many instances.
That he is informed, and believes, that certain occupiers of lands
and premises, situate in the said parish, are not rated in respect
of the same, viz. the Corn Exchange, for profit of land and pre-
mises, and several occupiers of offices therein enumerated ; that
these are " not rated or assessed in respect of their goods, stock
in trade, personal effects, and other property, convertible into
profit, whereas the petitioner is rated and assessed in respect to
his yearly income or value in tithe." The petitioner conceiving
himself aggrieved, prays the Court to quash the two rates, or
grant such other relief as they may deem meet.

- Mr. LA:w was about to call evidence in support of the appal-
lant'iteasei when

Mr. Bottawn and Mr. Minalves took a preliminary objec-
tion.

After a lengthened argument between the Counsel ou both
sides, the Ritcoatoxa decided, that the objection raised was good;
that where two rates were appealed against, two petitions were
necessary, it being required by law ; and it would-be impossible
For the Court to distinguish between the two rates es they were
set forth in the petition.
• By this decision the rates are confirmed, and no further petition
can be presented against them, the time limited by law having
expired.

Being answered in the negative, the Magistrate said that ill
should discharge the prisoner, observing, that scarcely a weal
passed that charges of a similar nature were net made at thst
office. if sailors had the imprudence to get drunk and acrolik
pany prostitutes to their abodes, and then get robbed, they (tl'i
sailors) must, and generally did, suffer for their folly, as in za6.
cases out of ten their property was taken from them under cif'
cumstances that rendered it a most difficult task to bring liaws
the charge against the persons accused.

will proceed by the mail this morning. The letters will be up to-
morrow. The James Cropper sailed on the Ist inst., at the same
time as the Columbus packet ship, which arrived at Plymouth on
the 20th inst., and consequently little fresh intelligence may be
expected by this arrival.

On Monday a man named Richardson, a journey-
man tinman, went into the Royal Oak Inn, in this town, and
ordered a pint of beer, shortly after drinking which, he fell down
and immediately expired. An inquest was held on the body on
Tuesday, and a verdict returned, "Died by the visitation of God."
Last week, a poor woman at Gretton, near Winchcomb, in the act of
making a purse for her son, fell back in her chair, and suddenly
expired,—. Cheltenham Chronicle,

M. VILLEMAIN.

The Sorbonne was attended with a great crowd this
morning, to hear the first lecture of M. Villemain after his
late disgrace. An audience of not less than 1,500 persons
was admitted to hear the eloquent professor. The applause
with which he was received prevented him for some
minutes from proceeding with his course. He at last ob-
tained silence by conjuring the students to respect the dig-
nity of letters. During the whole of his lecture he stu-
diously avoided any expression which might be twisted
into an allusion to recent events. Though a principal
part of his lecture related to the historian, Rollin, and the
state of the University in his time, he never once directed
the attention of his audience to its present condition, or_tv
the suspension of its professors from their pure twice re-
the conclusion of his lecture, thPy -tits earnest entreaties
that tney s'nowu cease. The students waited for him in
the court of the Sorbonne for some time after ; but as he
did not appear, they dispersed, praising rather the pru-
dence than the courage of their professor. I heard one of
them saying, with apparent discontent, " Voila tin pro-
feneur eloquent, rail a n'est pas l'etojfe pour faire an
tribun." (Our professor is an eloquent rhetorician, but
he is not the stuff to make a tribune of the people.)

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—(Tura DAY.)
HELD V. TOSTFE. AND OTHERS.

This was an action on a Policy of Insurance, en the life of
Lady Margaret Hunlock, for a considerable sum advanced to her
by the plaintiff. The insurance was affected with the Pelican In-
surance Company, by Mr. Gibbs, of Howard and Gibbs, who
transacted the business. Some time afterwards, a new Insurance
Company called the Star Insurance Company, was established,
of which Howard and Gibbs were Directors ; and Gibbs, in
whose possession the original policy was, thinking that it would be
beneficial to the new Company to have the policy transferred from the
Pelican office, cancelled the policy, and transferred it to the Star
Company without the plaintiff's knowledge. Gibbs also received
from the Pelican Company 90/. of a balance of premium, for
which he never accounted to the plaintiff. Six months had elapsed
before the transaction came to the plaintiff's knowledge, when
the Star Company applied to him for an increase of premium,
on the ground that Lady Hunlock's age was under-stated, it
being stated in the policy that she was under 63 years, whereas
she was in fact 67 ; but while this matter was negotiating Lady
Hunlock died, and the defendants, who were Directorsofthe Star
Company, refused to pay the money insured to the plaintiff, because
the age was under-rated. The cause was tried at Guildhall at the
Sittings after last term, before the Chief Justice, who nonsuited
the plaintiff on account of the error in stating the age.
Mr. Sergeant WILDE this day moved for a rule to show cause
why the nonsuit should not be set aside on the ground of the
whole matter having been transacted by Gibbs, and because there
was no fraud on the part of his client. He contended that in
the circumstances of the case, no warranty was implied by the
statement in the policy.
The CHIEF JUSTICE, however, was of opinion that a warranty
was implied, and that it must be strictly complied with ; and the
other Judges being of the oat= opinion, the rule was refused as
to the sum insured, but granted as to the premium.

VINTRY WARD.

The long contested election for an Alderman for the above ward
was yesterday concluded, by the Lord Mayor giving his decision
at the close of the scrutiny.
At the close of the poll the numbers were equal, being 52 each.
The Lord Mayor yesterday, after some prefatory remarks, de-
clared Edward Archer Wilde, Esq„ to be duly elected, as, in his
opinion, the legal votes were, for
Edward Archer Wilde, Esq. - - - - 38
Henry Winchester, Esq. - _ 35

Upon this announcement some few ladies in the gallery hoisted
two flags, one bearing the inscription " The Triumph of Inde-
pendence," and the other, "Wilde, our Neighbour ;" but they
managed the business so badly, that poor " Wilde, our nigh-
bons" fell down into the Hall, amidst roars of laughter from hie
opponents.

Mr. Wilde then returned thanks, not forgetting, as usual, to
abuse his opponents, but particularly Mr. Deputy Whitby, whom
he charged with violating a promise of neutrality.
-Mr. Deputy Whitby
defended irinistlf against this attack in 'a
firm and manly manner.

Mr. Sheriff Winchester returned thanks ; but just as he rose,
a band of music, hired by Mr. Wilde, struck up some tune at the
front of the door of Cutlers' Hall, so as to, prevent the worthy
Sheriff from being heard for some time. Ih e understood him to
declare, that be was duly elected at the former election, and that
the question was not yet decided.—The ladies in the gallery, he
(Loud laughter, aad applause, amidst which a voice from the
said, had mounted "The triumph of Independence" for him.—
crowd exclaimed, " But they let Our neighbour Wilde' fall to
the ground.") The worthy Sheriff expressed his determination
to pursue the contest to the utmost under the advice of his legal
friends.

The Hon. C. E. Law returned thanks for the handsome man-
ner in which the Legal Gentlemen had been spoken of by the
Lord Mayor in his speech.
_

A vote of thanks was then passed to the Lord Mayor; after
which,

His Lordship shortly returned thanks, and the Wardmote was
dissolved, all present exclaiming, "When shall we have an Al-
derman?"

PARIS, MARCH 11.—We pointed out at the time of its first ap-

ascribed to the Royalists, in which it is proposed to raise the In-

tion has attracted the notice of the Spanish Government. The
Madrid Gazette, of the Ist of March, contains an order addressed
to the President of the Council, commanding the application of the
penalties enacted by the laws to those who may have distributed
this pamphlet, and to those who have kept it in their possession,
and not delivered the copies as soon as they received them, to the

FRENCH PAPERS.
• (From the Etoile, dated Monday.)
PARIS, ALst,cts t.—. The most recent accounts from Madrid
state, that a corps of Portuguese refugees, which, after a new de-
feat, came to seek refuge in Castile, re-entered Portugal as itoost
as it was informed that General Monet was advancing to disarm it.
The pretended conspiracy discovered in the regiment of Chas-
aeurs of the Guard stationed at Rozas, in Estremadura, is reduced
to the arrest of some soldiers whom a Captain, indefinido, had
persuaded to desert into Portugal with their arms and baggage.
The Italian refugees who have lived for several years at Barce-
lona have just received orders to quit Spain.

FASHIONABLE AND MISCELLANEOUS.

WINDSOR, MARCH 13.--Yesterday the weather
being favourable and fine, his MAJESTY, for the ant
time since his return to thl Royal Lodge, took an
airing in his pony phaeton for upwards of two hours in
the Great Park.
His MAJESTY enjoys good health, but owing to
his long confinement within the Pavilion, at Brighton,
together with the cold and change of weather since his
return, prevented his MAJESTY from taking his ac•
customed exercise earlier.
This afternoon, if the weather should prove favour•
able, it is expected that his MAJESTY will visit the
Castle.
It is expected that his MAJESTY Will leave the
Royal Lodge to-morrow, or Thursday, for St. James's
Palace.

Saturday, Mr. Crotch, the King's Messenger, ar•
rived in London with despatches from the Right Hon. Stratford
Canning, our Ambassador at Constantinople
ERRATA IN THE LISTS ON THE CATHOLIC
QUESTION.—In the list of the minority Mr. Stuart Wortley's
name was omitted by mistake. Sir J. W. INPKenzie supported
Sir F. Burdett's motion ; Lord Ennestnore opposed Sir F. Bur•
dett's motion. For Thomson, C. P. in the majority, read Alder-
man ; for Chichester, Sir Arthur, in the minority, read Arthur;
for Knox, Hon. John. in the minority, read Hon. Thomas.

The name of Mr. Poyntz, M.P. for Chichester,
was omitted in the list of the minority of 38, who voted for SO*.
as the import price of barley, instead of 325., as proposed.

DARING ROBBERY.--Yesterday afternoon some
burglars entered the premises, No. 3, Ann-street, Waterloo-road,
and stole a number of articles, amongst which were a black coat.
black mixture trousers, a large Wituey blanket, two richly cut
square decanters, and sundry child's wearing apparel, all marked
S. ; also a child's buff cloth coat, and a number of towels, marked
H. L. S. The thieves have hitherto escaped detection. Posting
bills have been distributed, offering a reward for their apprehension.
We understand that a Miss Andrews (late a pupil
of Sir George Smart's), makes her appearance this night, at the
Oratorio, at Covent-garden. From what we have heard of this
young lady, we think she is likely to be a valuable acquisition to
the theatre.

PROFESSIONAL CHARACTER.-- A hackney-
coachman, seeing a certain man of the ton driving four-iu-hand
down Bond-street, said, " That fellow looks like a ooasbmaa, but
drives like a gentleman."

SMYRNA, JAN. 10. —(From a Private Letter.)—The innu-
merable pirates who infest the seas of the Levant ren 1,-r the na-
vigation of the Archipelago extremely dangerous for merchantmen.
The French naval division in those seas, tinder the command of
Rear-Admiral de Rigny, render' the greatest services to our
commerce in this respect. The number of vessels couvoyed by
his Majesty's ships during the last six months of 1826 amounted
to 136, of which only one that had parted from the convoy fell
into the hands of the pirates. But it ie not the same with those
vessels that would not wait for convoy--of about 40 which acted
in this manner, ten were plundered with circumstances more or
less atrocious.

The vessels consigned from Marseilles to Candia, for the car-
riage of oil, are especially objects of pursuit to the Greek pirated,
on account of the ready money which they are presumed to have
on board.

(From the Journal des Debats.)
ODESSA, FEB. 17.—LWe have news from. Constantinople up
to the 9th instant. The English Ambassador, after failing in all
his confidential proceedings, with respect to the pacification of
Greece, sent an official note to the Reis-Effendi, in which he in-
sisted on a suspension of hostilitieJ, in order that they might en-
deavour to come to some definite arrangement. The other Eu-
ropean Ministers took no part in these proceedings, except M.
Minziacky, who also sent a note, demanding a settlement with
the Greeks, in virtue of the protocol of St. Petersburgh, dated
4th of April, 1826. He added that the Greeks were in such
situation as would sooner or later effect their emancipation; and
that, should it turn out otherwise, Russia would not remain a
passive spectator during their destruction. This co-operation on
the part of the two preponderating powers gives hope to the
cause of the Greeks._

bRtTRY-LANE nitATRE.

It has been remarked by many theatrical critics, that Mr.
Kean's Othello, has of late evinced symptoms of negligence, and
that in consequence, a new " Moor " should as speedily as possible
be manufactured. With this view a gentleman, on Monday night
"made his first appearance on any stage,' in that peculiarcharacter,
kindly intending, no doubt, to supply the deficiencies of Mr.
Kean. It was "an amiable weakness," and we feel proud to add,
that the gentleman in question made the most gentlemanly Othello
we have ever witnessed. The pleasant indifference of his man-
ner, when first stung by lago into madness, far exceeded
the vulgar energy of Mr. Kean ; his pathos too was
more cheerful, and his jealous agitation bore the very impress of
good-humour. Mr. Kean foolishly enacted the part like a man ;
his rival never for an instant forgot that he was a gentleman,
while in point of effect, we do not hesitate to assert that we never
yet saw Othello played to so lively an audience. One smirking
little gentleman, in particular, stuck up like a popinjay, in the
tenth row of the pit, excited by the enthusiasm of his vivacity,
" encored" the farewell speech, which the majority of the
audience, could they have woke at the proper time, would no doubt
have seconded. But while we thus do justice to the inconceiv-
able abilities of the new Othello, we must confess that we are far
from thinking him perfect. In murdering his wife, for instance ;
he seemed to fancy himself in a slaughter-house, and accordingly
dispatched her rather too much like a butcher. Indeed,
we have seen many of that " sanguinary brotherhood,"
handle a calf far less scientifically. Again—in his address to the
aenate,:he reminded us too frequently of Mr. Cubbett, when with
elegance peculiar to himself he addressed an equally refined audi-
ence, at the late Preston election. But this perhaps may be an
unconscious plagiarism, for great geniuses, as we all know, will
have points in common. Were we to select any particular pas-
sages for admiration, we should say, that his soliloquy just pre-
vious to the murder of Desdvmona, was inimitable. Liston in
Lord Doodle, or Mathews in Tom Thumb, never yet produced
such an electrical effect; so much so, that the laughter of one
half the house woke the other half who were asleep, when both
instantly went partners in one thriving firm of loud universal
merriment. " The force of genius can no further go." Pray, in
the name, and on the behalf of an admiring public, may we ask
who is this genius ?
