LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT 'OF COMMON PLEAS, OCT: 1 6
CRISDEE V. BOLTON.

This was an action fora breach of contract

Mr. Serjeant JONES
.stated, that the defendant
formerly kept a pUblie-house, known by the name of
the Blenheim Arms; at St. Luke's, Chelsea, which
he had since sold to the plaintiff, who paid him
1,5001. for the good-will. The agreement under
which this purchase took place, contained a clause
by which the defendant was restricted from opening
any other house within a mile of the Blenheim Arms,
under a penalty of .5004, to be recovered as and for
liquidated dainages. In defiance of this agreement,
the defendant had since opened a house, which, at
the furthest, was little more than three quarters of a
mile from the Blenheim Arms. This fact was proved
by several witnesses.
Mr. Serjeant WILDE, for the defendant, contended
that the plaintiff had verbally consented to the act
of which he now complained, and would prove that
he was present•at the house-warming given by the
defendant on his entering his new house, and that
he had said he would never have brought this action,
but that Bolton had left Reid's house, with whom be
(the plaintiff) dealt for beer.
The witnesses were called in support of this
statement.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE left the question of
the plaintiff's having assented to the defendant's
going into the house, to th,e decision of the Jury—
observing, in the course of his charge, upon the great
increase in the number of public-houses, one hun-
dredth part of which, he believed, would be amply
sufficient for the real and necessary accommodation
of the people. This multiplication appeared-to him
to be only for the purpose of increasing the dreadful
monopoly which the brewers of this city had so long
maintained.

The Jury without hesitation returned a verdict for
the plaintiff—Damages 5001.
In the course of h►s defence, Mr. Sergeant WILDE
submitted, that by the terms of the agreement the
500/. could be recovered only as a penalty, and not
in the shape of liquidated damages. Leave was
granted him to move the Court in Term on that
point.

WOOD V. VAVEY.

This was an action of assault and battery. The
parties are both shoe-makers, residing at Walworth
—the plaintiff a very little, and the defendant a very
large, man. It appeared that on the ] 6th of April
last, some high words passed between these rivals,
which eventually led to blows. The plaintiff, how-
ever, asserted that the defendant commenced the
assault by giving the first blow, and afterwards kick-
ing him while down. The defendant denied this
charge.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE adverting to the,evi-
dence of. the defendant's having struck the plaintiff
while down, his Lordship said, " I detest the idea of
a man kicking another when down; I have said so
in another place, and always will, that I am con-,
vinced no true English boxer would de it."
The. Jury immediately returned a Verdict for the
plaintiff—Damagcs, 5/.

ArgASER.

The singular change in Gas after the ISM round, excited
the astonishment of the Ring, and from the turn which he
produced in the fighting afterwards, all backed him as a
winner. The determined pluek of Reuben, however, al-
though his science was put aside, enabled him to keep alive
to his duty, and ultimately to convince his friends that
their confidence Lad not been misplaced. Gas seemed per-
fectly aware that at eut-fighting lie had not a chance, and he
therefore judiciously went to work with a resolution to
allow no time for reflection ; but to keep Reuben constantly
on the bustle. This it was which made him so decidedly a
favourite ; but Reuben's returns in the same style were too
much for him, and the second hit on the tender spot com-
pletely " sewed him up." After the fight was over he was
walking about the ring, not much the worse for wear, and
incapable himself of saying how he had been beaten. The
cut over his left eye, and a severe swelling under his left_
ear, were the only prominent marks of punishment. From
the expectations which bad been formed among the
country folk" of Gas's prone., the issue of the battle was
anything but satisfactory, and much disappointment was
expressed.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

This being Christmas Day, of course there were
no transactions in the Colonial Markets.
In the Sugar Market yesterday there was some
',little business done at about the same terms as on
Friday last.
The stock at the end of the present year, as com-
pared with what it was at this period last year, is
expected to be less by 9,000 casks of Coffee. The
prices of most descriptions of West India` produce
are above those at the end of last year. Business
generally has been much more slack during the last
quarter than at any former period of the year, and
much confidence is entertained that a reaction will
occur shortly. The Continental Markets, according
to the most recent commercial letters from Holland,
Hamburgh, and other places, were, on the other
hand, in comparatively a brisk state, and, had it not
been for the free shipments of colonial produce made.
latterly, the prices here, in all probability, would have
been low er.
East India produce, with the exception of Silk
and Cotton, is also in a languid condition.
The Russia Trade, during the present year, has
been unusually brisk, and the imports of all the prin-
cipal articles derived from thence, far beyond those
entered in any former year. This observation ap-
plies more forcibly to Tallow and Bristles.
The American Trade has likewise been brisk,
until within the last quarter.
The Silk trade manifested considerable energy at
the commencement of the present year, but for the
last three or four months has been_ gradually becom-
ing more languid. This observation applies to Lon-
don only, as by all the accounts from provincial
towns, where the manufacture is carried on, a dif-
ferent state of things is represented to have existed.
This arises in some degree from the fact, that some
of the principal manufacturing houses in London
send their Silk down to Manchester and other places
to be woven, labour being cheaper than in Spital-
fields. The extensive import of French manufac-
tures in the autumn tended to throw increased gloom
over the market here. Latterly the arrivals have
not been extensive, anti sanguine hopes are indulged
of a revival in the spring.

COUNTRY CORN MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, Dec. 21.
The supply of Wheat to this day's market is moderate,
and it has been taken off pretty readily at last week's terms,
but there has been very little demand for Old. Oats are
without alteration. There is a large arrival of Barley, and
descriptions have met very dull sale, at a decline of le.
per quarter, and a considerable quantity remains unsold.
Beans are heavy, and prices are looking down. Malt is
dull, hut not lower.

NORWICH, Dec. 22.
We had a pretty good supply of all sorts of Corn, with
little inclination to take off any extra quantity, without an
abatement in prices from last week, and an equal firmness
on the part of the farmers to hold, hence our prices re-
main as they were, with a dull sale. Fine dry st.mples of
Wheat sold readily ; inferior descriptions hung on hand.
Good samples of Barley for malting sell readily ; inferior
descriptions are unsold. Oats are. heavy in sale, as are
also Beans and Pease. No alteration. in Flour.

A person of the name of BRADSHAW was at
one time a member of the Beef Steak Club. He was vain
of being descended from the regicide of that name. He
was one day on his favourite topic, boasting of his an-
cestor's patriotism, when CHURCHILL exclaimed, " Ah,
BRADSHAW, don't Crow! The STUARTS have been amply
avenged for the loss of CHARLES'S head, for you have slot
had a head in your family ever
.since."— The Cletbs of

EXTRAORDINAAY ESCAPE WITH LITE.-
About six o'clock in the evening of Tnes4ay week, a young
man returning westward from Wigton market, having either
lost or mislaid his whip, stopped near the bridge, to cut a
twig from a tree overhanging the Wiza. " This he attempt-
ed to perform with his knife, without alighting from his
horse; but, in the action, the animal, (as might reasonably'
have been expected) took fright, and starting when the
rider was in an insecure position, threw him. The young
man fell into the bed of the river, with the knife in -his
hand; the blade of which, coining. in contact with his
neck, buried itself between the jugular artery. and the
windpipe. .It providentially happened, that in a short
time after this accident, the Rev. Mr. Marrultw's hus-
bandman was proceeding from Wigton to the farm ; when,
hearing a noise resembling a struggling in the brook, lie
determined to. go down and examine into the cause ;
darkness of the night preventing his ascertaining it from
the
,bridge. _ln course, by this timely interference, the
young man was removed from his stony bed ; and ,we
understand that he is expected to recovor.—.Carlisle

THE BILIOUS PILLS,

DREPARED by F. NEWBERY 'and
-n_ SONS, nre the discovery of a Physician of the first
eminence at the present time. In an extensive practice
for some years he has employed them in the most obstinate
Bilious Cases with unvarying sueeees. They operate prin-
cipally as a deobstruent and-purgative; they promote a
proper action of the liver in the secretion of bile, or correct
it when in a vitiated state. Obstructions of the sto►nach
and bowels are gradually removed ; and by giving tone to
the biliary duets and strength to the system, they afford re-
lief to those who suffer from nervous attacks, sick head-ache,
giddiness, indigestion, and gouty affection. •

The Bilious- Pills have the name " F. Newbery" en-
graved in the government stamp on :mull Box, and are sold
at 45, St. Paul's Chureh-yard, and by J. Sanger, 150,

—that. the happiness of ate people -of Poland
gained, and could not but gain infinitely by any
change of. masters--the occurrence of the French
Revolution, which speedily absorbed all inferior in-
terests, and we may see abundant cause why such a
violation of the law of nations, and of the immutable
dictates of justice, as the partition in question, might
take place then. But those who would argue from
. its occurrence that any thing of a like nature
could take place now, leave out of consideration
the very different circumstances in which Europe
is now situated. We have no hesitation in
saying, that at this moment no such an act of poli-
tical turpitude could be attempted, or, if attempted,
could be successful. It may seem somewhat para-
doxical to affirm that this superior knoWledge of,
and higher respect for, national rights, is the result
of the French Revolution, but we think they may
without difficulty be traced to it. For while the.
whole of the tinsel frippery which, passed for virtue
among individuals and communities, perished when
exposed to the flame of that devouring volcano, the
sterling gold came forth unharmed, and purer, and
more brilliant, for the trial. The revolutionary
horrors were, if we may so express it, a sort of l'e-
ductio ad absurdum proof of the eternal principles
of political as well as private right. That a great
and growing reverence for those principles has been
the consequence, we think is abundantly' obvious.
Even in the Holy Alliance, which has been so
much stigmatised, the'signs and tokens of that re-
verence are found. Forty years ago, each particu-
lar Monarch might undisturbedly have arrogated the
right to work his own will in his own way; but the
invasion of Spain, which was ostensibly and in' reality
no more than a preventive measure, required the
sanction of half a dozen Powers to render the at-
tempt. permissible in the eyes of enlightened .Eu-
rope. Forty years ago, such a dominion as that in-
vasion gave to France; would bare settled down to
permanent occupancy of the whole, or seizure of a
part of the invaded territory. Now. we see it ter-
minate in the quirt withdrawal of her troops. These
are open and palpable proofs of the existence and
power of that moral force which alone is the real
sanctifier of treaties, and which we have no doubt
will render sacred the treaty of, the 6th' of July
New Times.

So, and th'& people fief3k t the wonder, hut the

immediately caused the well to be filled with
stones, and the wretch within it perished.
The Arabs being font.l of' Novelty followed
Mahomet, but his countrymen, when they per-
ceived his design was to set up for a prophet and
lawgiver, expelled him with scorn, and he was
compelled on the 16th of July, A. D. 622, to
fly from Mecca, and take refuge in Medina, at
Nabi (the city of 'the . prophet)„. distant 176
miles, and from that day the Mahometans reckon
their Hegira, that is, their computation of time,
as Christians do from the birth of our Saviour.

He had several wives, yet left only one daugh-
ter, Fatima, who married Ali before-mentioned,
Mahomet died on the 17th June, A.D. 631,
having reigned 8 years and some months, and
lived 67 lunar or Arabic years. Since that
time his followers have made themselves masters
of Palestine, Syria, Persia, Egypt, Greece, &c.
and a very great part of the world has submit-
ted to his law.

His body is deposited in the principal mosque
of Medina, called Mos. al Kiber (the mosfholy),
which is supported by 400 pillars and illumined
by 3,000 silver lamps.. A little tower covered
with plates of silver, hung with cloth of gold,
and guarded by 40 eunuchs, contains the coffin

CHILBLAINS, RHEUMATISM, SPRAINS, &c.
BUTLER'S CAJEPUT OPODELDOC.—
Cajeput Oil, which is the basis of this Opodeldoc, has
been long esteemed on the Continent, as a remedy for Chronic
Rheumatism, Spasmodic Affections, Chilblains, Palsy, Stiffness,
and Enlargement of the Joifits, Sprains, Bruises, and Deaf-
ness; and the experience of late years, in England, proves. that
it merits the high character given of it by the most eminent in
the profession, in those obstinate complaints. Being combined
in the form of Opodeldoc, it is rendered more penetrating, and
consequently much more efficacious as an external application.
Rubbed upon-the skin, by means of flannel, or the warm hand,
it allays morbid irritation of nerves, invigorates the absorbents,
and accelerates the circulation.

the opinion which we have invariably expressed, that
FERDINAND would be mad enough to plunge his
kingdom into a war with England rather than re-
nounce the system which he has pursued, will prove
correct. But we are aware that all the communications
received by expresses from Paris, come tainted with
the wishes of the party by which they are forwarded
to this country, for purposes connected with transactions
in public securities ; and therefore we are not inclined
to place implicit confidence on their contents, although
the general character of the information received
through various channels very much tends to strengthen
the belief of its authenticity.
Some of these communications received yesterday
bring accounts from Madrid to the 29th ult. and state
that the best understanding subsisted between FER-
DINAND and his Ministers ; that late events seemed
rather to have cemented than divided the interests of
different parties in the capital, arid that FERDINAND,
thus supported, was likely to show more energy than
he has the character of possessing, and had actually
made arrangements for collecting an army of double
the amount before state'l, to be under General ItODIL.
On the other hand, is is stated that the tone which
our Ambassador at first assumed has been very much
softened down—that there are no preparations made
for his departure, and that although the Spanish Ca-
binet are inclined to procrastinate matters, it is evident
that they have no real intentions to involve themselves
in a war with Great Britain. The improbability of
part of this story throws discredit on the whole. It
is altogether out of the question to suppose that Mr.
LAMB has lowered that high tone in the discussion
which he had at first assumed. On the contrary,
it is quite evident that he would have been in-
structed to demand a categorical reply respecting
our claims upon Spain, as well as regarding the
affairs of Portugal. It would be inconsistent with
the energetic policy adopted by Mr. CANNING, to
suppose for a moment that he would instruct Mr.
LAMB to admit of any shuffling, or to moderate
his demands in proportion as the Spanish Ministry
seemed inclined to resist them. On the contrary, we
have reason to believe that the most clear and distinct
instructions on this subject have been given, and that if
an immediate submission be not made by the Court of
Madrid, Mr. LAMB will withdraw from thence, and a
Declaration will be issued by our Government, stating
to the world the conduct of Spain, and manfully avow-
ing the measures which we shall adopt for the pro-
tection of our Allies, and the re-payment of ourselves.

His MAJESTY has signified his commands, in testimony
of his deep affection towards his late much beloved
Brother, that the Funeral of the Duke of YORK shall be
of the most splendid description possible.

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

Yesterday evening an inquest was held at St. Thomas's Hos-
pital, on the body of David Jones, a labouring man, 74 years of
age, killed by one of the Dulwich coaches passing over him.
Several witnesses were examined, all of whom agreed that the
,:oachman called out repeatedly to the deceased, who might have
escaped injury, had he attended to it, and considered he was very
deaf.

Mr. Wilson Overend, dresser to Mr. Tyrrell.--When brought
in the hospital, both legs of the deceased were broken ; he died of
the injuries last Friday.
The Coroner summed up the evidence, and dwelt strongly on
the necessity of caution on the part of coachmen and others in
passing through the streets; hut left it to the Jury and others to
,ay, whether they considered the driver in the present instance
culpable, or whether the death of the deceased was occasioned
, -
accidentally.
The Jury considered for a few minute', and returned a verdict
of—" Accidental Death, and a deodaud of Lis. on the wheel."

Another inquest was held at the same Hospital on the body of
John Taylor—" Scalded to- Death."
Richard Cox, Lambeth-walk, shopkeeper, was in the Plough
Brewery, Park-street, Kennington-cross, on Saturday last, about
five o'clock, waiting for some grains; and whilst he was there, he
heard a splash in the copper, and presently after saw the deceased
coming from the copper, who said, "I am scalded alive ;" the
copper was full of boiling wort. Witness assisted him into the
yard, and stripped off his shirt ; he was so dreadfully scalded the
skin came off with it. Deceased told witness he fell in owing to
the pump-handle he was working on the edge of the copper
coming off.
Mr. John Hilton, dresser to Mr. Keene, saw the deceased when
brought to the hospital ; lie was dreadfully scalded. The cuticle
was completely stripped off, except on the hands and face ; he
sunk rapidly, and expired at five the next morning.—Verdict,
" Accidental Death."

The Cheltenham Journal states that Messrs. Tur-
ner and Co. will not be able to pay the promised dividend of fire
shillings in the pound in January; but that three shillings will be
paid. They have been compelled to this alteration in consequence
of being disappointed of the payment of debts due to them to the
amount of 1:,,0001.

On Saturday evening last, a man brought a box to
Messrs. Hargreaves, in Bridge-street, Manchester, directed "Mr.
Young, Hardwareman, Edinhargb," and upon being questioned
by the book-keeper he retreated back, and when near the gate
bolted off like an arrow ; a police officer was sent for, the box
opened, and it contained the bodies of two females, apparently 13
and 14 years of age, they were removed to the Workhouse, and
an investigation took place before the Coroner, when Mr. Oilier de-
posing that the bodies had been disinterred for dissection in his opi-
nion, tile Jury found a verdict accordingly.—Bolton Express.

THE LAST OF THE HEROES OF MINDEN.7—.-Died
at Dyke, parish of Symington, on the 20th ult., James Camp-
bell, aged 86, out-pensioner of Chelsea Hospital. For upwards
of 26 years he served in the 12th regiment of foot, and fur more
than a year in Dumbarton Castle. On Ist August, 1759, he
fought at the battle of Minden. When the engagement com-
menced, the company to which he belonged had its full comple-
ment of men, but on the following:morning seven only were able
to do duty. He was slightly wounded, but nevertheless was one
of the seven who thus stood muster. In the following year, 31st
July, 1760, he fought at Warbourg ; on the 15th and 16th July,
1761, at Farlinghousen ; on 24th June, 1762, at Williamstadt ;
and in Germany-under Prince Ferdinand of Brunswick. For 14
years and six months he was in Gibraltar, partaking, under the
brave Elliot, his full share of the dangers and hardships of that
memorable siege, and was one of the party that made the sortie
from the garrison, and destroyed the Spanish batteries, spiking
their cannon and mortars, and setting fire to seven magazines.
Saving Colonel Triggie, and his aide-de-camp, Lieutenant Miles
Thornton, he was the last who came in the garrison at Bayside.
He lived and died neither in penury:nor affluence, and it may with
truth be said of him, that a more loyal or more honest man, or
a braver soldier, never partook of the royal bounty. He was
highly connected, and his name will be long remembered by all
those to whom he was known.—Glasgow Paper.

great champion of Threadneedle-street is still
shielded in the impenetrable armour of monopoly,
and pit is quite fair, therefore, that Government
should prove its influence and authority, either
to place the two parties on something like an
equal footing, or to stop the unequal contest. The
Country Bankers have submitted their resolu-
tions to the consideration of Ministers, from
whence there is no doubt that this important
subject will receive all due consideration.
