rain, tionnder, and lightning came on about seven
o'clock; they were malting for tinti.cy-hridge to
take shelter, but observing on the Fulham side a
beatPu track leading to the shore, they alighted
from the boat, and took shelter tinder a large
tree, a few yards from the water, where they re-
mained during the storm. As it was clearing,
and they were about to return to their boat, they
were surrounded by a Gentleman armed with a
gun, and .five hiery-servants ;

who declared that he and his companions should
answer for their r conduct at Bow-street °thee ;
they expressed their willingness to proceed there,
though • they were nut conscious of hating done
any thing that was cognizable there, as the extent
of is Itat they had done could not possibly amount
to more than a trespass, and that there must be
considerable dont), even about that, as they bad

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY 30.

REED, IN THE MATTER OP' REED.

Mr. BELT., in this case, prayed his Lordship to
order the interest arising from a slim of 10,0001.
to be paid to the petitioner. The following is a
brief summary of the facts of the case :—The pre-
sent applicant was the natural son at the testa-
tor, who, in his will, bequeathed a sum of 10001.
for the purpose of edocati•tg him. On leaving
school, he was to be placed in a merchant's house,
in order to fit him for entering into business, for
which purpose; the testator also bequeathed a sum
of 5,0001. He also left him a stun of 10,0001. on
his arriving at the age of tWenty•six, with a pro-
viso, that his conduct should meet the approba-
tion of
,tire executors, who the testator desired to
keep a watchful eye over the conduct of his son,
considering, that if he were not to place him tinder
some restriction, he would ,quatider the whole of
the property and entail ruin and misery on himself.
The 9011 haviog 'entered into trade before he had
attained the age of twenty one, became insolvent,
and took the benefit of an insolvent Act, on which
occasion he executed an assignment, according to
the terms of that Act, of all his property and ex-
pectancies, in trust, for the liquidation of his
debts- %Viler* the cause was originally heard
before the Master of the Rolls, his 11ononr
pressed an opinion, .that it would be necessary
that the Crown should he made a party to the
suit, ns if • the Executors should not be satisfied
with the conduct of their Ward, they might refuse
to pay over the 10,0001. to him-, and the Crown
would become entitled to it, in consequence of 110
person being named in the will to take the pro-
perty, io the event of the Executors not. deeming
it right In pay the money to the son. The Attor-
ney-General, in consequence, became on the part
of the Crhwtt a party to the suit.
Mr. Cott.Erson, on the part of the Assignees,
this day, appeared to claim the sum in question,
for the liquidation of the In•oivent's debts ; anti

The SOLICITOR-GENUKAL., ou the part of the
Crown. •

The LORD CHANcELLOR deprecated the bt tog-
lug the case forward, ott the pt•csetu occasion, in
the form of a toolioft.

The SOLlctToa-GeNERAL .said, that when he
had been applied to by the Gentlemen on the other
side, he had expressed an opioion, that it partook'
tHire.of the nature of a cause than a motion.

The Loan. CHANCELLOR (having heard -Mr.
Colletson'at great length); observing on the time
the case had already occupiO, expressed himself
astonished that it shonld have been -brought for-
ward, as it would, in fact, take up as much time
as any cause that had ever been before him,- and
when he took into consideration the great-delay
that would he occasioned to the Bankrupt Peti-
tions, and the other business of the Court, his
• Lordship felt it to be nothing less than strict jus-
tice to. prevent the further proceedings in it taking
place on the present occasion. Uis Lordship, in
conclusion,said," I am determinedthat l will not
hear one part of the business of the Court, when
it will. he 4ttended with iniu,tioni effects to-the
other. I have no doubt that when Igo home.
t,h,is,evening, I shall not receive less than twenty
letters, complaining of delay in the respectiye
causes, which it will be impo-ssihte for me. to
•reinedy. If I can hear any. motions before the,Cith
of August, after having got throng!, the Petitions-,..
I will willingly do it ; hut dee• NI thee hearing of
