WELLESLEY V. DUKE OF BEAUFORT.

Mr. BEAMES applied for leave to have a petition
respecting Mr. Wellesley's children put into the
paper for the first day after the next Seal.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—Why should you have
it put into the paper so soon ?
Mr. BEAMES—My Lord, the object of the petition
is to obtain the directions of the Court respecting
the residence of the children during the ensuing vaca-
tion; and I understand the vacation commences
about the middle of this month.

The LORD CHANCELLOR—Is there to be any op-
position to it
Mr. BEAMES—Every thing in this matter has pro-
duced opposition, and therefore I suppose this will
do so also. The children, during the lait vacation,
were allowed to go to Seagrea, the estate that be-
longs to the eldest son; and the intention of the
petition is, to submit circumstances to the
Court, to show why they .should not be allowed
to return there to pass the present vacation.
The petition is very short.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—But the discussion
will probably not be very short.
Mr. 13FiAmEs—I cannot pretend to say whether it
will or not; on our part it will. The petition presses.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—I suppose your appli-
cation must be granted. Have the goodness to
communicate it to the other side, and see if you can
come to some arrangement on this subject.
Mr. BEAMES—My Lord, they shall have notice,
but I am afraid it will be difficult to come to any
arrangement.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—Arrangement will be
a convenient mode of settling it. Let me have the
affidavits on both sides.

Mr. BEAMES—There would be no difficulty in ar-
ranging on our part; but there_would be on the
other side.

IN RE SIR GREGORY PAGE tURNER, A LUNATIC.

Mr. PIIILLIMORE presented two petitions in this
matter. The first was on behalf of the Committee
of the estate. It stated that the Master had found
the debts of Sir Gregory, as far as he had gone, to
amount to 29,000/.;. that a gentleman had been
found willing to advance, on mortgage of the estates,
the sums of 25,0001. and 12,0001.; that- the Master
thought it would be proper, under the circumstances
at present, to accept of the loan of 25,0001., and
therefore the petition prayed that the mortgage
might be ordered by the Court to be executed ac-
cording to the Master's report.—Prayer granted.
The next was on behalf of Lady Turner, stating
that the Master had found she ought to be allowed
300/. a-year, by quarterly payments, commencing
from Michaelmas next, out of the income of the
estates, for maintenance, and praying for the con-
firmation of this report also.—Order made.

lIARBIN V. MILLS.

In this case, which was an action by an attorney,
the question was, whether the attorney, whose bills
of costs had been taxed, and from which more than
a sixth had been taken off, was bound to pay the
costs of the taxation. It appeared that the de-
fendant had not applied to have the bill taxed until
after the present action had been brought. The
case was argued some days ago.
Lord TENTERDEN now stated, that whew a party
having had an attorney's bill delivered to him a
month or more, waited until an action was brought
before he applied to have the bill taxed, he was not
entitled to the costs of the taxation, notwithstand-
ing a sixth should have been taken off.

adjoining, containing together about Four Acres, -enclosed

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday evening a labouring man named Daniel
Recidini, was brought 'before Sir R. BIRNIE, by
Joseph Dickinsbn, a constable of Old Brentford,
charged, upon the warrant of Mr. Stirling, coroner,
with the manslaughter of a man named John Dwyer.

According to the statement of -the constable, it
appeared that a quarrel arose between the prisoner
and the deceased on Sunday fortnight, and they
went to decide their difference in a garden at the
rear of the house where the prisoner resided. The
deceased struck the first blow, was knocked down,
and while on the ground, according to the evidence
taken before the Coroner, the prisoner kicked him
twice upon the breast; and in consequence of the
injuries he received, he died in a few days after at
Old Brentford. An inquest was held upon his body
on the 27th tilt., and an adjournment took place to
the Ist instant, in order to give time for the pro-
duction of a person named Jackson, who it appeared
was a witness of the injuries which the deceased had
received. Upon his evidence the jury returned a
verdict of manslaughter against the prisoner, who
was taken into custody yesterday evening, at six
o'clock, at his residence Mill-lane, Deptford, and
brought to this office, in order to be committed to
Newgate.
The prisoner having been identified by the con-
stable as the man against whom the warrant had
been issued, was fully committed by Sir R. Birnia,
to take his trial it the next sessions at the Old
Bailey.

EX PARTE THE INHABITANTS OF PUTNEY.

A rule nisi had been obtained a few days ago by
the Attorney-General for a writ of mandamus to
swear into the office of churchwarden of Putney a
person who had been elected by the inhabitants.
It appeared that two persons had been lately chosen
churchwardens by the inhabitants, and one of them
had been sworn in, but the clergyman having claimed
the right to choose one of the churchwardens, the
ordinary had refused to swear in the other. The
inhabitants claimed the right to nominate both.
Mr. GURNEY showed cause against the rule.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said his clients were
willing to try an issue to determine the question
whether or not the inhabitants had the tight of
nominating both churchwardens.
The COURT thought that there ought to be an
issue, and therefore directed the rule to be enlarged
until the issue had been tried.

FISHER V. CLEMENT.

This case, which was in the new trial paper for
argument, was called on, and Lord TENTERDEN,
after stating the nature of the action (an action for
an alleged libel published in a newspaper called Bell's
Life in London,) said it had occurred to him on
looking over his notes of the trial, that the parties
might be disposed to agree to a stet firocessni, which
he (Lord Tenterden) thought would be the best
mode of settling the matter.
At, the suggestion of the Court, the case was
postponed, to give the parties an opportunity of con-
ferring together.

CHARACTER OF MOSES.

The Hebrew lawgiver was a man who, consi-
dered merely in an historical light, without any
reference to his divine inspiration, has exercised
a more extensive and permanent influence over
the destinies of his own nation and mankind at
large than any other individual recorded in the
annals of the world. Christianity and Mahome-
tanism alike respect, and, in different degrees,
derive their origin from the Mosaic institutes.
Thus, throughout Europe, with all its Ameri-
can descendants, the larger part of Asia, and the-
north of Africa, the opinions, the usages, the
civil as well as religious ordinances, retain deep
and indelible traces of their descent from the
Hebrew polity. To his own nation Moses was
chieftain, historian, poet, lawgiver. He was
more than all these—he was the author of their
civil existence. Other founders of republics,
and distinguished legislators, have been, like
Numa, already at the head of a settled and or-
ganised community; or have been voluntarily
invested in legislative authority, like Charondas,
Lycurgus, and Solon, by a people suffering the
inconveniences of anarchy. Moses had first to
form his people, and bestow on them a country
of their own, before he could create a common-
wealth. The Hebrews would either have been
absorbed in the population of Egypt, or remain-
ed a wretched Pariah caste, had Moses never
lived. In this condition he took them up, and
rescued them from captivity : finding them unfit
for his purpose, he kept them for forty years
under the severe discipline of the desert ; then
led them as conqueror to take permanent posses-
sion of a most fruitffil region. Yet, with singu-
lar disregard to his own fame, though with
great advantage to his design, Moses uniformly
referred to an earlier and more remote personage
the dignity of parent of his people. The Jews were
children of Abraham, not of Moses ; they were
a distinguished nation as descendants of the pa-
triarch, not as compatriots of the lawgiver. The
virtue of pure and disinterested patriotism never
shone forth more unclouded. The permanent
happiness of the whole people was the one great
object to which the life of Moses was devoted ;
so that, if we could, for an instant suspect that'
he made use of religion for a political purpose,
still that purpose would entitle him to the highest
rank among the benefactors of mankind, as hav-
ing been the first who attempted to regulate so-
ciety by an even-written law. If God were not
the sovereign of the Jewish nation, the law was:
the best and only safe viceregent of Almighty
Providence to which the welfare of human com-
munities can be entrusted, If the Hebrew cow-

IRISH ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

CORK, AUGUST 28.

SLANDER.-BYNG AND WIFE V. CALLAGHAN, M. P.

This action, which has excited so much interest,
went off without a trial. When the Jury were sworn,
Mr. Serjeant GOOLD; the leading counsel for the
defendant, Gerard Callaghan, Esq., rose and said,—
Before this case is entered upon, I think it my duty
to say that it is a case which ought not to be tried.
I know the kindness and car.dour of my friend, the
Solicitor-General, and I am sure that neither he nor
any other person can conceive that Mr. Gerard Cal-
laghan was the author of the slander for which this
action was brought. I think, for the sake of the
public time, and in consideration of the feelings of all
parties concerned, that the particulars of this case
ought not to go before the public.
After a few words from the SOLICITOR-GENERAL
and Mr. Justice TORRENS,

Mr. Serjeant GOOLD proceeded.—My Lord, it has
been charged against Mr. Callaghan, in placards
about the streets, in the public prints, and in every
shape that the libel could gain publicityohat he wgs
the author of these reports, and all he is anxious for
is to clear himself from that dreadful imputation.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he was ready to
meet his Learned Friend in the same spirit, and he
was glad that the proposition was made before any
of the pleadings had been opened. He wished, how-
ever, to know what the defendant was prepared to do.
After some further observations between the
counsel on both sides,
Mr. Serjeant GOOLD said that from mere credu-
lity his client was unfortunately made the dupe of
declarations against the character of Lady Agnes
Byng, which he now believed to be utterly false.—
There was, he said, no man in the community now
more entirely convinced of the atrocity, the wicked-
ness, and the utter falsehood of the publications re-
flecting on the character of that amiable lady than
Mr. Callaghan was; and he instructed his Counsel
now to make that public. declaration. And if it
could be conveyed in any stronger or more appropriate
language, he was ready to make it, or to do any thing
else that might be thought satisfactory to the feel-
ings of that interesting and respectable young lady,
and of the gentleman who was her husband.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was perfectly satisfied
with this candid and honourable avowal on the part
of the defendant.

Mr. Callaghan, who was in Court, expressed in
the strongest terms his regret for having uninten-
tionally given a moment's pain to Lady Agnes Byng
or her husband, by appearing to credit a report so
scandalously false. Mr. Callaghan disclaimed alto-
gether having ever been influenced by political feel-
ings towards any of the parties concerned.
The Learned JUDGE, after expressing his pleasure
at the amicable arid honourable manner in which the
action terminated, discharged the Jury.

PORTUGAL.

DECLARATION MADE BY THE MARQUIS OF BARBAC":6t
TO THE FAITHFUL SUBJECTS OF HER MAJESTY 11'
QUEEN OF PORTUGAL, DONNA MARIA 11. .
" At the point of complying with the posit's',
order which the' Emperor, my august master, via
pleased to transmit me, in qualityof father and OW;
dian of her Majesty Donna Maria 11., reigning Queel
of Portugal, that I should conduct her to his pre'
sence, it is my duty, according to my instructions, til
explain the intentions of his imperial Majesty to ll'
her faithful subjects, that they may know the trde
motives of this imperial resolution, and not suffeg
themselves to be deceived by unfounded fears or 1113'
lignant inuations.
" The separation of her Most Faithful Motiegtl
from her august father was the necessary consi,
quence of her exaltation to the throne of Portugni
Her coming to England and her temporary residene
in the states of her most ancient ally, were oecti'
sioned by the odious usurpation of her crown, l'ej
companied with the violation of the most saere.
oaths, to the shame of the Governments arid natiovi
of both worlds.
" The return of her Majesty to the bosom of 11:1
family is the necessary effect of the struggle orl'io
unhappily exists between legitimacy and usurps!i°,
for the paternal tenderness of his Imperial Msies;
requires that in such extraordinary circumstance;
until the desired moment in which the Que,e
Maria 11. shall be raised to the throne to l",e,f
Heaven has destined her, he should be the defen""
and guardian of her august person. hi
Far, therefore, from abandoning the cause of
beloved daughter, his Imperial Majesty persists';
his unalterable resolution to protect her, and ne
to come to terms with the usurper.
" Whatever may be the difficulties and obstacil
dt,
which retard the success of the cause of liot!°o`'d
justice, and legitimacy, the subjects of her D133,e;:11

SPIRIT OP TIIE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The Marquis de Barbacena has just addressed
an official declaration to the subjects of Donna
Maria da Gloria, in her character of Queen of .Por-

tugal, which derives more interest than might other-
wise have belonged to it, from the coincidence
of two events—viz. the departure of her Ma-
jesty for South America, and the animating and
unlooked-for intelligence from Count Villa Floc,

BUTLER'S FLUID EXTRACT of SARSAPARILLA.
ARSA PA RILL A has of late years been
►7 much used as an alterative in Scrofulous Affections,
Scurvy, and other cutaneous Diseases, and is considered
by the most eminent Surgeons of the present day as the
very best Medicine for re-establishing the constitution after
it has undergone the effects of Mercury, or has been injured
by what is denominated Secondary Symptoms. This
Fluid Extract contains all the properties of the Root, in
a concentrated state, will keep for any length of time, and
the Patient, its one minute, may make a Decoction of any
strength, by the addition of water.
Sold in Bottles at 4s. 6d., Ss. 6d., and 20s. by Messrs.
Butler, Chemists, Cheapside, corner of St. Paul's London ;
Sackville_street, Dublin ; and Prince's-street, Edinburgh ;
and the principal Medicine Venders ; of whom may be had
BUTLER'S COMPOUND ESSENCE OF CUBEBS.
This preparation is a strong Essence of the Cubebs, in
combination with other ingredients, which, whilst equally
mild and innoxious to the constitution, having been found
by experience materially to increase the known efficacy of
the Cubebs, it is therefore confidently recommended for
those affections arising from diseases of the Kidneys, Blad-
der, &c. and that class of Diseases generally in which the
use of the Cubebs has been found so serviceable. In
Bottles at 4s. 61, Ss. Gd. and 20s.

LITERAI URE.

THE YOUNG LADY'S BOOK.
LONDON, 1829.

The majority of our Annuals, however ably
and spiritedly got up, arc more to be admired
for the ornamental than the useful or practical
character :of their information. We arc glad)
therefore, to see one Annual which, together
with embellishments—though of a different class
of excellence—fully equal to those of its elegant
predecessors, professes to impart sound, valua-
able, and, in a partial degree, moral matters of
intelligence to its fair readers. " The Young
Lady's Book" contains, we believe we may ven-
ture to say, every thing necessary to draw
forth, accomplish, and enlarge the intellect of a
female. It treats in a light, discursive, and
engaging style, upon Botany—Conchology—
Entomology—Mineralogy—and, in the more fa-
miliar and every-day departments of female edu-
cation, upon the Toilette—the Art of Embroi-
dery—the Escrutoirc--Painting—Music--
Dancing, Riding—and a variety of other minor
accomplishments. Each of these topics, in addi.
tion to the satisfactory manner in which they
are canvassed, is embellished, in its different
departments, by neat engravings, which reflect
the highest credit on the genius and judgment
of the artist. Altogether the work is the com-
pletest of the kind we haver ever seen, and de-
serves a very extended circulation.

FOX HUNTING.

On Friday last the fox which was taken in this town
on Friday, the lfth instant, was " turned down" before
the Fourborough hounds in a field near Pengreep, when
he started off at a pace which would lead to a supposition
that he was fully aware of the fleetness of his pursuers.
Seventeen minutes were allowed him before the hounds
were laid on, when they opened in full cry, and after a
run of four hours and forty-seven minutes, during which
they passed through twelve large parishes, poor Reynard
was run into and killed upon the rocks between Blackhead
and the Lizard, having been completely " done up" just
before the Lizard lights were displayed. This was one of
the finest fox hunts that ever wok place in Cornwall. It
is supposed the run was upwards of 50 miles, and the
greater part of the sportsmen, on reaching their homes,
must have ridden 80 miles at least.—Falmouth Packet.
London, England, 1829-12-29

him if he could. Witness searched him and found
11. 12s. 61.1. in his pockets, and six gilt counters.
It was intimated to the Magistrate that the
counters were used for play.
The prisoner declined saying any thing in his de-
fence, and was fully committed to Newgate for trial.
It is needless to say that there is no such person
las the Hon. Mr. Harrington in the Guards in ex-
istence.

the appearance of a plumber's window as a decoy,
the whole establishment being in fart nothing but a
receiving shop for stolen lead. Neither Anderson
nor Shenstone could give any swisfecory account
for their possession of this large quantity of lead,
and in consequence, under the Act of Parliament,
Anderson was committed for two months to hard
labour in the House of Correction; and Shenstone,
being in a bad state of health, instead of being sub-
jenle,l to the same•term of imprisonment, was fined
51. i 4 the offence, end the whole of the lead was
!cited to the Crown.

It being strongly expected that before the appre-
lienbion of these persons became known several other
visitors as retailers of stolen lead were likely to conic
to the premises, two other officers, Ballard and An-
drews, were stationed in the back parlour, where
weights and scales were ready hung to weigh the
imoty as it was brought in ; in the course of
the same evening, the officers caught in this trap no
less than nine others, who entered at different times,
their bodies, too, bound round with sheet lead, for
which nor one of them could satisfactorily account;
and the whole of them, 11 in number, were yester-
day brought before the same Magistra.e (Mr. RoE)
and committed for two months to the House of Cor-
raction.

This names of these 11 prisoners were—John
Den Pats, John Avindon, George Brookes, John
Writers, Francis Thorne, John Madly, James
Bayley, John Ducktvoalh, Thomas Blackgrove, and
117 m. Clarke.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENCIT PAPERS.
(From Galignani's Messenger of Saturday.)
PARIS, DEC. 26.—A letter from Canes, in the
island of Candia, of the 25th ult., says that a vessel
from Alexandria had brought word that a relation
of General Guilleminot •had lately arrived on a mis—
sion to the Viceroy of Egypt, to propose to
subdue the recency of Algiers and the 800 leagues
of coast which formerly composed the maritime fron-
tier of the republic of Carthage. Mehemet Ali was
to be supported by a French fleet to ac•t in concert
with Tripoli and Tunis. The negotiator made many
tempting proposals, and Mehemet replied by inquiring
what he was to do after having conquered Algiers
"To repose and enjoy your glory." " Well," said
Mehemet, " I will do so from this moment." This
answer ' \vas followed by an: order to place his
troops on the peace establishment, and to dismantle
his vessels.

Letters from Oporto announce, that above 4q
persons had just embarked clandestinely in that port',
to take refuge in France and England.

HEREFORD, MARCH 28.
CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice PARK.)
JONES V. NICHOLS.
Mr. Sergeant LUDLOW said, this was an action
Or a malicious prosecution. The plaintiff in 1826
`~arried on business as a cabinet-maker at Swansea,
partnership with a Mr. Edwards, and became
'embarrassed in their circumstances ; the present de-
fendant, who Yves a creditor of the plaintiff, caused
hies to be arrested for the sum of 40/., and judg-
ment was t}',erenpon entered for 631., the increase
fl/einf; for l'ne costs of the action. The plaintiff sub-
;ol,e","'nthi took the benefit of the Insolvent Act, and
d his discharge. In his schedule, he returned
,84 5 e bt of 63/. as due to the defendant, for which
de 1, although he had obtained his discharge, the
,re ea dant sued out a fresh writ, the defendant stir-
„
'r:7ll !red in discharge of his bail, and was confined in
t';,e al for nearly six weeks.
,thit.' Ir. CAMPBELL, for the defendant, contended that
action could not be maintained, for that he
uld call witnesses to prove that, when this writ
hrs sued out by the defendant's attorney, the
Eder-sheriff was instructed not to issue execution,
Process being in order to fix the bail.
:I:Mr. Justice PARK—Mr. Campbell, I will not tell
41 what effect this has upon my mind, but I have
1 opinion : this poor man was unjustly confined in
101 for 38 days, by the folly of this gentleman and
he tinder-Sheriff, and I think they ought to have
' their heads knocked together for it.
• obj Mr. MAULE tendered some evidence which was
', teected to by Mr. Sergeant Ludlow; which oh-
eti" his Lordship allowed. Mr. ;Mule was pro-
%ling to argue The point, when—
xlB„ LoßDsityp said—Mr. Maule, I have said it,
'4cl do not ex pet a reply.
111 r. 3141-7.1.11--I trust vour Lordship will not ex-
udegen ;
ev'dexcoe which, with your Lordship's indul-
, e
acde f°r. A. very few moments, I think I can prove to
61,11' dssible.
'of./ Jrustice PARK—You gentlemen are .very fond
4ttro;,Tig the last word, and you shall have it now.
111AULE--I accept your Lordship's indulgence
"k"ike Purpose of saying, I trust your Lordship will
t'-rule that what I offer is not evidence, because a
71Icrge is made against this defendant for maliciously
''arresting the plaintiff; and if I show that his attor-
r"Y acted bona fide according to the estabrshed
IT•sractice of the Under-Sheriff, of Glamorganshire,
then the charge of a malicious arrest will not be
''sgainst him.
Mr. Justice PARK—I have said it, Mr. Manic, and
have ruled it, and I will not accept it. His Lord-
ship then recapitulated the evidence, and the Jury
Zeturned a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages 40/.

CHANCERY BAR.

We some time since directed public attention to
the extravagant nature of the monopoly attempted
to be maintained by the senior members of the
Chancery Bar. These Gentlemen insist not merely
that the business in which they are engaged shall,
while they are present, be transacted before that
entrusted to their junior brethren, but they would
also have the Vice-Chancellor to stand still while
they are absent. In consequence of the abuse
growing out of this usurpation on the part of the
Seniors, Sir L. Shadwell found himself on a recent
occasion, as he had often been before, without any
business before the Court, the Counsel retained in
all the causes in his paper being engaged in the
House of Lards ; and with a vigour not very usual
in his Honour, he forthwith issued an order direct-
ing that all causes in which the Counsel were not
ready should be struck out of the paper. Hereupon
Mr. Sugden, with a naiveté worthy of Lord Eldon
in his happiest hour, comes forward with a grave
complaint, protesting that he could not be expected
to give up all Appeals in the House of Lords, though
he had relinquished the Scotch and Lis!), and mo-
destly concludes by proposing, that instead of pe-
remptorily striking out the causes, for which Mr.
Sugden might not find it convenient to attend, the
Court should go up and down the list, and spend
its time in fishing for something to do, until he (Mr.
Sugden) can return. Arid pray why may not Mr.
ugden be expected to make his election between
the House of Lords and the Vice-Chancellor's
Court—or for what purpose is there a plurality of
Equity Courts but that they shall proceed, pari
passe, each in its separate department, at one and
the same time with the business of the country ? if
we are to have but one set of practitioners, we need
have but one Court. Having had the courage to
make his present order, we hope the Vice-Chan-
cellor will have the virtue and firmness to maintain
it.—Morning Chronicle.
