• COURT OF KING'S PENCIL NOV. 20.
THE UNIVERsITIE.S ENTITLED TO COPIES OF ALL

BOOKS PRINTED.
THE KING AND THE UNIVERSITY OF CANIBRIDGE 9.

BIiYA R.

This was an acte; brought against the defend int
by the Un verrAy of Came ridge, f r hasr;ng pub.
lis':ed a bra (hi.x'r History; we believe) without
sending a copy for die aforementioned University,
operably to the' provOoos ni the bult Anne. The
plaintiffs obtained a ver.lit I r t 6. ss. that is, £5
penalty, and £l. ss. she sa:ue of the bi)ok.

The action was, in fact, brought to try the right
of the several Universities and ptsbliE Libraries, (11
in number) to a copy of entry b th it comes from
the press, whet er entered at Stationers Hallo:, not,
fur the pte)lication in question had not been entered
at St itit.ners'k Hall, and, on that ground the defer.
dant contended, that he had no tight to give a copy,
as by the non-entrance of the well, he did not take
the benefits of the several Acts fix the protection of
literary property.
'the verdict, however, was entered for the plaintiff,
but the Judge who presided at the trial, suffered this
point to be reserved for argument before the Coon,
and it was this day argued.
Mr. LITTLEDALE Appeared for the plaintiffs, and
argued in support of the verdict. He commenced
his argument, by•alluding to.the Act of the 13th of
Charles 11. (the first Statute passed on the subject of
literary property), which previded, that a copy. of
every book that might be published, without saying
every book es entered at Stationers' Hall," should be
forwarded to the Warehouse-keeper of the Stationers
Company, pe doubly to publication, f.n. the King's
Library, and for the two Universities (those of Ox-
ford and Cambridge.) The next Act that passed on
the subject, was the Statute of the B.h Anne, which
secured to the authors or proprieti.rs of new works,
for a given period, the sole and exclusive right of
pub'ishing them—a tight which was not before se-
caned to them. By that Act it was provided, that
all books entered at Stationer? Hall should adduce
that proof, to show their claim to exclusive publica-
tion, and to the pi otecti.n of the Statute; and it I
went on to enact, that nine copies of every book, on
the best paper, should he st et before publication to
the warehouse-keeper of the Company of Stationers,
for the use of the Royal Library, the two Universi-
ties in England, the four Universities is Scotland,
the Library of Sion College, and the Lbrary belong-
ing to the College of Advocates, -in Edinburgh, to
be delivered to them on requisition. On this Act, the
University founded its right, urged in the present in-
stance, for it evidently w.es intended to promote the
cause of learning, that backs should be thus forward-
ed to the public libraties for the use of the students.
Mr. L. argued from hence, that as the right of the
Universities to a copy of each new book was not
before shackled, it never could have been the inten-
tion of the Legislature, by this Act, so to shackle
I them, while it at the same time gave to authors and
printers immunities and privileges which they before!
did not enjoy. The 15th Geo. }vas the next Act
relied upon, which made further provisions respecting
literary pi operty, as the former Acts had in sonic way
been .. eluted." It alltuled to books .4 published as
aforesaid," which allusion did not mean such books
as mig!st be entered at Stationers' Hart, hut referred
to those who might possess the exclusive right of pub-
lication, either' from authorship or proprietorship.
The next Act adduced in support of the general ar-
gument, was, the 41st of the present King, passed
after the Union with Ireland; and the object of it
was, to extend the privileges enjoyed by the English
,iJniversities, Scotch Colleges, &c. to Trinity College,
'and King's Inns, Dublin. Thus there were to be 11
copies of each new book to be forwarded to the Sta-
tioners' Company for the eleven public libraries, on ,
pain of forfeiting the value thereof, and also £5. for
each omission. This Act of the 41st of the King re-
ferred to the former Acts on the same subject; and
its preamble set forth, that the Statute related to
" Woks entered at Stttioilers' Hall. Now as 0,4
•

•K.• •:‘

I

former Acts did not eozinne their provitions to book*
leg entered at Stationers' Hall," the erroneous preallls
ble to the 41st of the King certainly could not mind •
the clauses of former Statutes. The misconception
of any previous Act in the preamble of a subsequent
Statute could not do away the benefits resulting .
from such former Acts, for to do that would be in
fact to render them null and void. Those former .1
Statutes distinctly enacted that copies of all books
should be sent to the several public libraries therein :.
specified; and the 41st of the King was merely for
the purpose, after the Union, of extending the sitni. `,l
Jar privileges to the two public libraries in Dublin.—. ..
Such former Statutes required copies of all books that
might be printed to be forwarded for the Universi. .
ties, &c. previously to publication, for some books
-might be ;entered at Stationers' Hall without being 1
published, and, vice Ivrea, books might be published 1-1
without having been entered at Stationers' Hall. n
Such a misconception in the preamble of the 41st of l,
the King could not operate so as to do away the be. i I
nefits resulting from former Statutes, and therefore 1
he humbly maintained, that the verdict in this case
ought to be confirmed. I
Mr. BROUGHAM argued contra. He contended, d
that the property of authors could be defended by 1,1
common law, as had been proved in " Beckford v.
Hood," a case respecting literary property which had 1,
not been entered at Stationers' Hall ; and those p I f•• I
ticular Statutes on whiCh Mr. Littledale relied, with _
the exception of the 41st of the King, gave to authors 1
the protection of Statute-law, the benefit resulting
from entering books at Stationers' Hall. But if au. '
thors or the proprietors of works did not choose to
put themselves under the protection of Statute-law,
by entering their books at Stationers' Hall—if they ;
were content to stand on the Common Law, by not
making the entries required by former Statutes, then
ought they not be called upon to abide by the provi.
sions of those Statutes. That seemed to be the spirit I
of' those Acts, as appeared from the last Act passed' i
on the subject of literary property, namely, the 41st
of the King, which in the preamble specifically stated 1
the Act to regard only those books " entered at Sta. I
tioners' Hall."—lf authors did not shield their pro- I
petty by those Acts, surely they were noC bound to
do what they required from those who had the benefit
of their protection. The Act of Charles was distinct
from that of Anne, therefore, would he not touch on
it. He began with the Bth Anne, and the 15th Geo. I,'
111. and argued, that they were in some degree üb. i
scure on the pint now at issue, and that the Legisla.
titre had acknowledged such obscurity in the 41st of
.the King. That obscurity was not only recognized,
but actually done away in the very preamble of the
Act last alluded to, it professing to refer to books i
" entered at Stationer,' Hall."—The meaning of all the
Acts on this point was set forth in plain terms; and 4
he therefore submitted, that as it left no doubt, the
verdict ought not to stand. I
Mr. LITTLEDALE having replied, the judgment of I
the Court was delivered.

Lord ELLENBOROUGH held, that the Bth Anne, on
the subject at issue, was not susceptible of a doubt;
its meaning was plain and obvious, and clearly re.
quired the delivery of a'certain number of copia is
the warehouse-keeper of the Stationers' Company foe
the King's Library, the English and Scotch Univer-
sities, &c. That Act of Anne seemed to have had two
distinct objects in view : Ist, the protection of lite.
nary property; 2dly, the advancement of literature,
in providing the public libraries with copies of all
new books, for the use of the students, &c. Thus
literary works would be accessible to the students at
a more easy rate than might otherwise have been the
case; and at all events, for the advancement of lite-
rature, to'secure a deposit of all books in those libra-
ries. The subsequent Acts were intended to promote,
secure, and extend those benefits; aad the Act of the
41st of the King, notwithstanding the misconception
of its preamble, merely extended the benefits enjoyed
by the English and Scotch Universities to those of Ire-
land. But that misconception, or rather the erroneous
• description given of former Acts in the preamble of the
41st of the present reign, could not overcome and do
away the strong and potent meaning of the Bth Aline,
c. 14. He therefore was of opinion, that the plain-
tiffs were clearly entitled to have their verdict cons
firmed.

Mr. Justice LE BLANC, and Mr. Justice BAILEY,
coincided in the judgment of the LORD CHIEF Jua.
Tics • but Mr. Justice GEM was absent on account
of illness, we believe.

The verdict of the Plaintiffs was accordingly con•
firmed; and it is thus decided, that eleven copies, on
the best paper, of every book that shall be printed.
previously to publication, must bo forwarded to tho
Warehouse-keeper of the Stationers' Company, whe.
ther entered at Stationers'-Hall or tint, to be tretiver-
ed, on requisition, to the eleven public libraries, spe.
cified in the 42st of the present King, namely, " the
Royal Library, the Libraries of the two Untversito
in-England, the four Universities in Scotland, this
Library of Sion College, the Library belonging to
the College of Advocates in Edinburgh, the Librarl
of Trinity College, Dublin, and the King's Inns,
Dublin, on the pain of forfeiting the value thereof,
and also 115 for each book.' —(/ride Mt Act).

. - .
In consequence of the uumerotii robberies Ltd,
committed at Liverpool, a plan was laid by the po-
lice for the detection of the offenders. Friday seat
night last, about nine o'clock, a party of the police-
officers and special constables proceeded, in a hackney*
coach, along the road leadingifrom Everton towards
Low•hill ; when they-were 'attacked by five men,
armed with a blunderbuss'and pistols, who with
dreadful istrecations, broke the coach wind.iws,open.
ed both the doors, and demanded their money. Upon
finding that the party in the inside were armed, the
robbers fired the blunderbuss and pistols into the
coach ; and one of the constables having suffered
hi-mselt to be robbed (agreeably to the directions he
had received), a desperate affray took place:—three
of the constables smite disabled very rally, one by a
slug through his arm, another by several cuts upon
the head, and a third by a very severe cat toter the
eye : fortunately two of the footpath were secured.
Last Sunday night, as three boys of Bath CV
were attempting to steal poultry in one of the gardesis
which had been robbed before, at the bottom of dui
' Crescent fields, the eldest, about 17 years ut age, was, ,
shot by a spring gun, and his lea dieadfully man.
gled, that he Was conveyed in great agony ,o the
Casualty Hospital, where it was cut off to -save hi.
life.

at &fit rent periods between the Ist day of Apri! and the lit day
of September, 1811, when the same I:rivat.: Henry Spong
nettrally disaarged fiom the Ist Royal Surrey Regiment ot Mi-

• Upon which charge the Court came to the follow.
Ing decision:
44 The Court having must maturely considered the
evidence in behalf of the prosecution, together
what the prisorei , capt.T. Churchill Thompson, has
urged in his defence, are of opinion, that in drawing
iind receiving pay for private Henry Spong, as spe—
tified in the charge, he has not. been guilty of the
smallest intentional crime, nor .actuated by cGrrupt,
fratiehde.nt, or interested motives, and therefore en-
titled to a fall and honourable acquittal, and he is
hereby most fully and honourably acquitted."
I am to acquaint your Lordship, that under all e.e
circumstances of the case, his Royal Highness was
pleased, in the name and on the behalf of his Ma-
pity, to acquiesce in the sentence of the Cow t.
I am at the same time to desire that your Lordship
will express the Prince Regent's surprise and regret
that the Court Martial should have adopted a judg.
snent so perfectly irscc,nsistent with their finding ;
inasmuch as the. Court admits the prisoner to have
committed the act described in the chaekte, which is
not only must incorrect in itself, but cregra; y to every
principle of law, order, and regulation, and proceeds
to acquit him of motives which bavenot bcob alleged
against him.
I am farther commended to order that, until a due
investigation shall take place into the system of the
corps, which could have professed to 'auction by
usage the practice charged againstethe prisoner, and
admitted by the Coutt,.Captain Thomas Churchill
Thompson shall be prehi Wed from joining, and doing

ICOPPNT-CaDtAr THEATIZE. •

After the comic opera of The Lord of the Manor,
a -new musical Farce, denominated Lovo, Law, and
Physic, a title comprising, according to s,,me philo
sophers, three of the greatest evils in life, was last
night produced at-this Theatre. It 'is from the pen
of Mr. KENNY, the author of several successful dra-1
matic produttijos : The principal characters were,
Dr. Camicfrar. - • Mr. BLANCIIAED,
Omuta:sir 11:x11.1e, . Mr. MAT HEWS.

Lady Log, a native of Tooley-street, in the Bo-
rough, remarkable for his wealth and ignorance, on
the dea:h of his uncle Jeremy Jewson, proceeds to
Yorkshire, to take possession of an estate, devised
to him by his relatiie. In the mail-coach he encoun-
ters Mr. Flexible, a lawyer, travelling the Circuit,
and an dares:, going to join the Yoric company.—
He soon acquaints his companions with the objects of
his journey; first to claim the estate of his late uncle,
and next to'nirry Laura, the niece of Dr. Camphor,
who is anxious for the match, provided Looby proves
himself to be sole heir to the property. Flexible, who
is aware that his friend Captain Danvers is Laura's
favoured lover, immediately determines to oppose
Looby. Having learned that the name of one of his
fellow-travellers is John Brown, a man well-known
in the city of York, he personates his servant, and,
under pretence of his supposed master having sud-
denly broken his leg, he has Dr. Camphor called tip ;
t midnight, who proceeds to Brown's house; which
gives Danvers an opportunity of making his entrance, ,1
q- the purpose of persuading his mistress to an elope.. -
ment. The sudden return of Camphor, however, de-
stroys this plan. Flexible, by means of the 4mw,,
whom he has eng:'ged to assist him, having learned
that Looby's uncle, while abroad, cohabited with a
Mrs. Yelasco, by whom he had issue, next introduces
Danvers to Dr. Camphor, at whose house Looby re-
sides, as the fruit of this connection, to claim his
father's property ; but here also he is defeated, as the
register of the baptism, which Looby produces, proves
the issue to have been a female. Again mfited,
Danvers retires ; but Flexible, who has filled the Doc-
tor with a high idea of his forensic talents, by several
bombastic speeches, is requested by him to plead a
cause, in which ha is Defendant, and on his success
iii which, the character of his favourite nostrum en-
tirely depends. Flexible pleads the cause, and brings
him off victorious. Hs gratitude. prompts him, in
consequence, to break Off the proposed match between
his niece iald Ludy, and to bestow her on Danvers,
of whose respectability Flexible c.,nvinces him, but
unfortunately he has given his censent in writing to
the Toolyy-street beau, s ith whf,se manners he is
completely disgusted. obstacle is soon over-
come by Flexible, who gets i is friend, the .4arerr, to
personate M:: Velasco, whom Lady, learfut lest the
superior right of his supposed cousin 5h:.01.1 deprive
him of his uncle's 'estate, swears to- esponse, and
gives up all preteeslons to Lairs. Hewn discovers
the trick, but consoles himself under the loss of his
mistress, who is united to Denver,. with the reflec-
tion, that they cannot deprive him of Jerry Jenusoa's
bequcit.

'1 his little Piece boasts a greater share of humour
and of incident than we recollect to have seen in any
simi:ar production tor ss me time. Many of the cir-
ciimstauces are extremely ludicrous ; and thi.ugh the
characters are not very strongly urawn, yet they are
so gtonptd as to affi rd a great deal of enterainment.
The dialogue, in many instances, exhibits a spirit of
'repartee acrd vivacity, gie itly superior to the miser-
able tissue of Puns and obsolete jests with which the
public taste has been recently so much nauseated.
The two principal characters, Lgoty Log and Mr.
Flexible, were inimitably •suppixted t.y Messrs. Lis-
TON and Marbews. The description given by the
latter ot li s speech in Dr. Camphor's defence, and
the Judge's charge, was excellent. His imitation
of a certain Noble Law Lord was amaxinzly exact,'
and drew down pals of applause. Mr. bdarnews
was solo very happy in his execution of a good comic
song, describing tite uproar ot the limb,. inside and
outside of a theatre, which was encored His imita-
tion' of the strange variety of discordant sounds was
minutely perfect. Mr. BLANCHARD, as Dr. Camphor,
and Mr. EMERY, RS died:vas, a Yorkshire servant,
were highly amusing. The overture and music, by
Mr. Nf. 1). KING, are. sweet and expres,ive. IVe sub-
join the poetry lit two very pretty-songs, which were
pleasingly executed by Miss E. BOLTON and Mr.
linoAnuuttsr..
•

The Farce is at present ton long, and we should
snggest the propriety of omitting the observations vf
the mad-coachman on the familiarity between Yoh&
werr and drivers. They are rather ton coarse, and
excited some disapprithation. this exception,
Love, Law, and Phyic received the unanimous suf-
frages of the audience, and we dutdat not will long
continue a taecurite.
