EXTRACTS FROM THY 0 LEAL PORTUOL72, OF TIC!
27TH JULY.

• LISBON, JULY 19.
The intelligence from this capital impresses 'bur
hearts with the profoundest melancholy, and the Mos:
direful images of death. Lagarde, that worthy as-
sociate of Robespierre, has let loose the most revolt-
ing futy, and the most ferocious barbarity against the
inoffensive inhabitants of this city. Victims without.
number are daily immolated to interest or to bruta-
lity—the inexhaustible genius of crime invents to:-
ments, multiplies the modes of death, steeps in blood
the veil of justice, and exalts assassination into vir:
tue, having destroyed the asylum which the domestic
walls till now had offered to the unoffending citizen.
This monster, expelled from Venice by the unani-
mous imprecations of all its inhabitants, has beei
sent to found in Lisbon a sanguinary magistracy, by
which he pretends to uphold the tottering and nearly
extinct dominion of the Usurper. ",rhe unfortuna:e
are dragged into the presence of the fiend, and with-
out confining his ferocity even to that form Which the
most iniquitous scarcely overlook, sacrifices them in
silence, and in the deepest holds of dreary dungeons.
Mistrust is qualified as crime—a denunciation, con-
ducted by hatred, or purchased by vengeance, con-
stitutes evidence—one word provokes death! What
a horrible situation I Lagartie awakens vengeance,
that vengeance which justice authorises, humanity
calls for, and society loudly claims as the foundation
of its security. Let it not tarry ! Let the image of
our oppressed countrymen inflame our valour, and
conduct our steps to break the chains under which we
are groaning.
PROVINCE OF BEIRA, JULY E.

By letters from that Province, of the Bth inst. we
have an account of the horrid insults exercised by the
French in the city of GUaria, sacking it, and assas-
sinating various persons, and otherwise committing
such excesses as characterise barbarity, and disgrace
irretrievably an army styling itself composed of dis-
ciplined troops.

to calculate the further mischiefs that were likely to
arise, if the Court did not interfere to put down the
combination. The effect already produced was that
of forcing the growers to find another market, and
consequently the supply in the Norwich market being
diminished, the price was enhanced. He would re-
peat, that persons had a right to buy and sell upon
the most advantageous terms they could get ; but
a body of individuals had no right to do that collec-
tively, the effect of which was prejudicial to tl e com-
munity at large.
Lord ELLESBOROUGII.••••••" As individuals they may
buy and sell upon the terms they agree for ; nobody
will question that right ; but combining to impose
terms upon the grower, such as described, is calcu-
lated to enhance the price of grain in the market, and
of lessening the supply in that market, which is ano-
ther cause for an increased price. Take a rule to
shew cause. It will be the means of more fully dis-
cussing the question, or of putting an end to the
practice altogether."—Rule to shew cause granted.

THE DUTY OF MAGISTRATES.
Mr. CLARKE gave notice of an intended motion for
a rule to file a criminal information against John
Browne, Esq. a Magistrate of Norwich, for irregu.
larity in passing Susannah Parsons and her child to
her parish. The Learned Counsel said, he only
mentioned the case, as it would be necessary to give
the Magistrate a month's notice of the motion, and
he should come again perhaps next term.

TO THE NOBILITY, GENTRY, AND THE PUBLIC
IN GENERAL.

DOCTOR SOLOMON prepares his ABSTER-
GENT LOTION, for pliblic use, which for a series of years
has been the wonder and admiration of his private patients ! It is
the most elegant, fragrant, mild, safe and valuable Liquid orWash
for Scorbutic and other eruptions. It gently restores the skin to
a degree of fairness and purity beyond the powers of description.
Ladies may rely that it renders the Face fair and delicate, and re-
moves every kind of stain, tan, sunburn, or freckles, which rouge,
long illness, or fatigue generally produce ; in short, it is the only
cosmetic a lady can use at her toilet with ease and fomfort, or a
g_ntieman have recourse to when shaving is become a dreadful
operation by an eruptive disease on the face. It.triay be used with-
out the smallest hazard, for a more sovereign remedy cannot he
devised for even the most delicate frame.

Ladies and Gentlesu may rely on the good qnalities of this
Abstergent, as the bestllearer and beautifier of the skin. It also
removes speedily, without pain or trouble, all kinds of pimples,
teeters, ring-worms, spots, redness, swellings or carbuncles of the
Nose,. lVotches, and every species of eruption on the surface of
the human body.
The Abstergent Lotion never fails of success with those who
give it a Lair trial, and as its price evidently shews that no private
emolument is sought for by the proprietor, so also may the public
be convinced that nothing but a certainty of its success could in-
duce Dr. Soloman to hazard the good opinion he is honoured wish
by all ranks, in presenting them with this elegant Cosmetic.
Note—A Government stamp is pasted en each bottle, with the
name and place of abode of the proprietor, thus," Sand. Solomon,

This was a question of alimony. In this case it
appearod that Mrs. Fletcher had instituted a suit
against her husband for a separation, on the ground
of cruelty, and this matter came before the Court by
way of petition presented on behalf of Mrs. F.-pray-
ing a suitable allowance for her subsistence during
the pt.ndency thereof. The Court, after hearing.the
merits of the petition, allotted the wife 5501. per

COURT Of KING'S BENCH, NOVEMBER 18.
THE KING V. THE REV. arataitam asitwoltm.
The Defendant was brought up to receive judg-
ment upon two indictments, at Lancaster Assizes, on
which he had been found guilty, of committing in-
decent assaults upon Mary Ann Cl;llibrand and Mary
13arlow. The Defendant had been a schoolmaster
at Preston in Lancashire, and these were two of his
pupils ; the former of the age of foul-teen, and-the
latter only nine years. The case was attended with
every circumstance of aggravation, the Defendant
being an elderly Clergyman, and having a wife and
eight children, six of whom were females. Affida-
vits were put in, in mitigation of his punishment,
stating that he had educated several children to whom
he had never shewn any indecent conduct. '
Mr. Scaiii.e.r, his C•ivasel, admitted that his case
was of the deepest dye, and that after having de-
feridenl ;tin' at the trial, he could urge no topic for
hie, in mitigation of ;;liniJiment, except his good
character, testimonials of which were given from se-
veral ladies who had been his pupils.
Mr. Justice GaosE, in passing the sentence of the
law, reprobated the conduct of the Defendant, in
those severe terms which it deserved ; and pronoun-
ced the judgment of the Court that he should be im-
prisoned, in Lancaster gaol, 1S months for the first
offence, and at the expiration of that time, IS months
more for the second.

The defendant was brought up by a side rule, to
plead to an indictment found agaikst him of a, crimi-
nal nature, on :he Bth of July. 18173, at the Middle-
sex Sessions. For svant of bail, he has been in cus-
tody for a considerable time.
The prisoner wihed to address the Court,by saying,
that he expected that this indictment had been quash
ed, in virtue of a motion made to that effect by Mr.
Marryatt, and that, in consequence of an anonymous
letter he had received -

Here he was interrupted by Mr. Justice BAYLEY—
" The Court cannot go -into these matters now, you
MUST plead to die indictment."
The prisoner then pleaded “ not guilty," and for
want of sureties was committed to the Marshal's cus-

This Work is designed as a Supplement to the Elements of
Conveyancing, but is equally adapted to general use. The intent
of it is to present the Solicitor with correct foritlis of those species
of assurance which axe in most common use, as distinguished
from such as are of a more special nature, requiring tive aid of
Counsel; each of these forms is made, by means of subjoined va-
riations, to serve as a precedent in every ordinary case which can
occur in a title; as where the sale is by private contract, and
where public auction; where the wife is a party and where nut;
where the conveyance is and where it is not made to a trustee for
preventing dower, ttc. Sm.' And that every draft may be either
fully or shortly drawn as clrcurnstaoces may require, the least
essential parts of each deed arc so distinguished from the rest, as to
be retained or omitted at pleasurs The character which Bach
party sustains in the deed is moreover inserted, instead of the
embarrassing mode of usieg.names or initials; and to the whole
will be added a very full and partir:Alar index. A prospectus of

of which they are susceptible. He has issued a de-
cree by which Arnheim is no longer to be considered
as a fortress, and the out-works are to he disposed o 1

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OP CHANCERY, NOVIMBER s.
MUST AND °ruses v. WESTLNY AND 011116/11.
This was an application to the Court to give Ear-
then directions to the Master in this cause.
Sir SAMLEL ROWILLY, Counsel fee the Plaintiffs,
stated, that the only question for the Court to deter.
mine was, whether several sums of monee, bequeathed
by John Hurst, to pay certain debts of his brotherlarnes
Hurst, ought to beat interest? The Learned Counsel
contended, tl:ere were but twd wa s for the Court to
consider it ; the first, that the Testator had taken the
place of his brother, and made himself liable for his
debts ; the second, that he had bequeathed the seve-
ral sums as legacies. He contended, that, in either
case, they would carry interest; and that the Plain-
tiffs were as much entitled to the interest as they were
to the several sums bequeathed. He would not take
up the time of the Court in making any other obser-
vations, as he conceived it was a principle so well laid
down there could not be a doubt of it ; he therefore
trusted his Lordship would direct the Master to allow
the usual interest.
Mr. RICHARDS and Mr. ALUANDZIIIi Counsel for
the Defendants, the Executors of the Testator, con-
tended, that the Plaintiffs could not expect to be
placed in a better situation than if the brother of the
Testator were alive and solvent • and that it never
could have been the intention of the Testator that the
several sums should have borne interest : and if the
Court decided that they should, it would be making
&will for the Testator, contrary to his intention: that
a general provision for debts in a will would make
them liable to interest, but did not entitle them to
carry interest where such provision was not made.
Under these circumstances, they hoped the Court
would be of opinion interest ought not to be allowed.
The Loan Cumectug.oa observed, that it was im-
possible the Testator could have taken or considered
those debts as his own. It appeared to him it was
the intention of the Testator that those sums should
be paid. 'The question then was, whether it was not
a legacy, and ought not to carry interest from the
Testator's death I He was inclined to think it ought ;
he therefore directed that the Master should allow four
per cent. interest from the period of the Tegator's de-
cease.

GRAMMAR SCHOOL OP LIED"

Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY stated, that the parties had
been endeavouring to frame such a plan as might
meet his Lordship's approbation, for the manage-
ment of this charity. He had to beg that it might
stand over, and that in the mean time his Lordship
would be pleased to consider the heads of a scheme
proposed by the parties.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said he should feel plea-
sure in doing sa.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, NOVEMBER 9.
RIAD V. CLIFF.

Mr. GARROW moved for a Rule to shew cause
why the execution should not be set aside, and the
Money, now in the hands of the Sheriff, which was
levied under it, paid over to the defendant t---and
that the plaintiff do pay the costs of this application ;
en the ground that the warrant of attorney upon
which the judgment had been entered up, was not
properly understood by the defendant when he exe-
cuted it, he being told it was only a security for the
repayment of a sum of 20001. which the plaintiff bad
advanced to the defendant in the course of their trans-
actions together, and that the defendant was told that
there was to be to the warrant of attorn.sy a defea.
sauce, which, it appeared, it did not contain. The'
is/arrant of attorney was given oa the 10th of June,
London, England, 1808-11-10

NOV. 9•..-.70 IS V. STACKS.

The Bill in this Lase required from the Defendant
answers to certain interrogatories respecting the dispo-
sal of property of the late Mr. Hammond, to which
he was trustee and co-executor. To these interroga-
tories the Defendant had put in answers, which not
beeing deemed satisfactory, he was required to amend
his answers ; and the answers so amended, the Mas-
ter had reported were impertinent. In the first an-
swers, the Defendant had stated, that, among other
items ,he had purchased £4OOO in the Irish funds—
he was required in the second Bill to state of whom
he purchased the stock, &c.—in answer, he neglected
to do so; but by way of explanation stated, that he
had given to the Lady, widow of Mr. Hammond, a
memorandum as of such a quantity of stock, paying
her the dividends. It was upon this unsatisfactory
answer, coupled with some other items, that the re-
port of impertinence was made.
Mr. RICHARDS, Sir SAMUEL RoseILLY, and Mr.
BaLL, were heard in behalf of the Plaintiff ; and Mr.
FONDLANQUZI and Mr. WINGFIELD, for the Defen-
dant. The latter Learned Counsel argued, that with
respect to this transaction of the £4OOO funded pro-
perty, it was usual with stock-brokers to give tq their
principals memorandums.—But
The Loan. CHANCELLOR said-44 This answer is
not satisfactory. It is true that the practice of entrust-
ing brokers to buy stock, and taking memorandums,
prevails. It too often happens that persons will place
confidence in brokers, giving up their money without
having a regular voucher—that the broker will in-
form you that he has bought stock, will go on pay-
ing the dividend, and at last becomes bankrupt.—
Then people begin to see their folly when too late,
and the misfortune is that there is no law which capi-
tally affects such persons." With respect to this
particular case, there were much of difficulty in it.—
It was the duty of the Court to see that suitors were
not burthened with heavy expences in answering bills,
at the same time it was also necessary that Defen-
dants should be restrained from answering so much
of the bills as might suit their case. As to the stock,
the Defendant had charged commission, &c. as it
bought, and yet in his second answer admitted none
had been bought. Upon the whole, he should look
into the answers, and give judgment on Monday.
RUSSELL O. LIR RALPH NTILRANKE, BART.

In this case the Plaintiff had sold certain colliery
estates to the Defendant for the sum of 044,000.
A deed was entered into in the year 1604. The
questions in the case were, Whether the Plaintiff was
liable to pay out of that property certain deductions
for the property duty, or whether the deed concluded
the parties upon that head
Mr. Rictiwarts and Mr..LTACIt were heard for s!r
Ralph Milbanke, and S'r S. ROMILLY and Mr. BELL
for Mr. Russell.—Judgment deferred.

On the motion of Mr. ROSE, the Chairman moved, and ob-
tained leave to bring in's Bill to permit all articles of die produce
of the Portuguese Territories on the Continent of South America,

Lord H. PETIT asked, if all kinds of goods, such as sugars,
would be allowed to be imported
Mr. ROSE answered, that it was intended to admit all the
produce of the Brazils, without excepting sugars ; but that those
sugars 'would be liable.to an extraordinary duty.
COPENHAGEN PAPERS.
Mr. PONSONBY said, that in consequence of the
papers laid on the table by his Majesty's Ministers, in
pursuance of the motion he had made relative to the
expedition •to Copenhagen, he found it necessary to
ask a few questions, for the purpose of endeavouring,
to clear the ground as much as possible before a dis-
cussion should take place on the subject. There was
on the face of the papers produced, one or two very
considerable chasms, such as from No. l to No. 7 ,
and takiqg the dates frOm the 7th September to the
Ist October, there appeared to be no documents what-
ever. The first question he wished, therefore, to ask
Was, whether in all that interval no dispatches what.
-vier had been received frpm our Minister at St. Peters-
burgh, or whether, if any had been received, they had
been omitted as improper to be then laid before the
